Agreed but it is worth keeping in mind that Bitwarden's implementation of sync is probably a lot more sophisticated than KeepassXC; and is probably the main reason why one would use Bitwarden. I am a former user of Keepass and I never knew it had network functionality so I think it makes sense to provide two packages -- one containing the main keepass functions which which 99% of users will use and the othrer for the 1% using the exotic functions. This is in line with how Debian handles many other packages such as vim, exim, etc so it is not at all surprising for the typical Debian user.
Moving to orbital colonies won't save you in the long term if growth remains exponential. You can expand at most in a sphere growing at the speed of light so at O(t^3). Eventually the O(c^t) population growth will outpace the rate of expansion.
You're missing the point and trying to substitute another point. That's called a strawman, so you're really arguing with yourself.
Not according to the current terms of service [1]:

> You are eligible for Service only if you or your employer has a customer or business address within UScellular licensed market area. If you meet the eligibility requirement only through your employer's business address, you may only be eligible for certain rate plans.

> At least 50% of your monthly usage for each device on your account must be used in UScellular licensed markets.

These kinds of terms are common for cellular plan, but it's less of an issue for companies with "nation-wide" networks.

I would love to switch to a MVNO that runs on multiple networks. It would certainly be more expensive, but it would be nice for people in areas with poor coverage, since roaming is dead.

Just No.
It looks like Apple will have a modular approach to AI. With some third-party components and some their own.

They have and will double down on AI within apps, like selecting the subject in photos, transformer driven typing suggestions, and other app features.

They will have a way to call out to a third-party, server-side GPT-style AI like ChatGPT for some functions.

They will have one more more local AIs running on-device and possibly replacing what Siri does now and tying the other AI together. This would likely intercept the user's request, infer the meaning, and match that to one or more service to satisfy that request. This is probably like what Rabbit R1 wanted to be but didn't have access to the features that Apple AI would.

Apple has been building the components of this for years. Their App Intents interface lets apps publish their features and make them available to call from automation like Shortcuts or an LLM powered Siri. They have been shipping devices with neural processors for 7 years. They have been publishing papers about ways to run LLMs and other AI on device and with reduced resources. If you aren't building a web answerbot yourself, you don't need the full scope of a ChatGPT locally.
Yeah, he omitted it for brevity alright & you would just have to deal with it. Some day you might, too, become Mysterio Mister Knowledgeable
I mean if you’re that worried about ms having your keys, you can always encrypt with a local account and save the key somewhere else. But also if you’re that worried about v someone having access to your data, why are you using a non open source OS anyways?
> pressure to introduce "self-checkout" machines

There is self-checkout with the Apple Store app, but they have recently made it harder than it needs to be. I think either location services has to be enabled for the app, or you have to find and scan a hidden round QR-like code at the hidden checkout station to bring up the hidden checkout screen.

(Come on Tim Cook, do you really not want my money anymore??)

Once the hidden checkout screen actually appears, the actual scan and purchase process works fine, and they seem to have fixed the issue where it was too easy to scan the same item twice.

The other thing you can do of course is preorder on store.apple.com and then check in when you arrive, either using the app or finding the person with an iPad, usually near the door, who checks people in.
Yes. You won't be able to trust what they say in relation to the story, not to the actuality of the gameplay. They're dialogue with essentially be orthogonal to play. Talk about ludo-narrative dissonance.
I usually pick the older one instead, because I'll feel sorry if it ended up wasted because everyone pick the newer one.
You're right, its a feature I don't use, and I didn't read enough if the docs to get the right grants.
We "have" hydrogen to buffer us through winter in the same way we "have" batteries to buffer us through the night. The technology is ready, we're just waiting on sufficient renewable supply so that it starts making sense to build storage (instead of investing the money into, e.g. more transmission lines, or making loads more flexible). That point is most likely still ten to twenty years in the future. If we're lucky storage will get cheaper during that time, but even if it doesn't it wouldn't be a catastrophe.
As a Debian user I like how Debian just includes the basics in the main package and provides optional extras if you want them. I'm not sure how other distros handle it the other way around -- if the main package includes everything the risk is naive users install packages that include functions they don't need that end up exposing security issues. The Debian approach provides a reduced attack surface out of the box and if I happen to need something more its easy to just apt search ${package_name} and see what other extensions are available and install these. I do this regularly for PHP modules for instance if some PHP code complains a certain module is not available. It may not be your cup of tea but this is the Debian approach, and it makes sense from the perspective of a defensive user like me to keep things simple.

RTK correction data is mainly free in Europe, just a hassle (eg state not nationwide) and a lot of paperwork todo, that’s why a lot of commercial providers exist…
It was a nice read, ruined by the random hat for systemd and Lennard Poettering. Haters gonna hate, i guess.
I suspect that they will be running AI locally but also calling out to server-side services where necessary. I don't expect a ChatGPT integration to be the whole of what Apple has planned for AI on their devices.
That's a specieist argument.

Not good.

PJM has a plan. Geo-Magnetic Disturbance (GMD) Operating Plan (EOP-010-1)[1]
Usage of some specific transmission lines has to be kept below certain values.
Right now, this is a low-load period late at night without bad weather,
so there are no additional actions ordered. The system load is probably within the more restrictive limits just because it's late night. If problems develop, you'll see more actions in there. Watch morning load take-up tomorrow.

There's a press release, too.[2]

If you really want to understand this, start at page 32 of this training PowerPoint.[3] In 1989, PJM had a blackout because of this, and that's thoroughly discussed in the training materials. Geography matters. PJM has transmission lines running in the same direction as a mountain range with igneous rock. So "ground" isn't as conductive as is desirable. During a geomagnetic disturbance event, ground voltage at different points can differ. This causes problems with wye-wound transformers grounded at the center of the wye.
They get some induced DC current, which can partially saturate the magnetics and heat up transformers.

There's a control room running this in Valley Forge, PA. (And a second control room in an undisclosed location.)

(Incidentally, this has absolutely nothing to do with electromagnetic pulse problems. EMP has a rise time of nanoseconds. GMD has a rise time in minutes. Unless you have a really long wire (many kilometers) with a potential to ground, this doesn't affect much.)

Show HN: I built a tool to capture and centralise insights from discovery calls
I recently released http://usediscovery.ai - it's a user insights product I built after having thousands of customer discovery calls as a product manager and realised how most of the customer insights I got often get lost after a while.

Also, while doing discovery for a new product I realised how much time I spent trying to analyse the interview sessions, most times I have to listen to the sessions over and over again and other teams don't often get the full customer context.

So I built a product that leverages an LLM to simplify interview session analysis and allow users to store insights & customer knowledge to make it easily retrievable & shareable for all teams.

It's pretty simple, you sign up, you upload your customer calls manually or from a cloud storage drive, then you can generate transcription, summaries & actionable insights. You can highlight parts of the transcription and categorise them under a new or existing tag.

Would love to hear your feedback on what you think and what we could add to make this even more useful, thanks!
I mean between bitlocker and T2 I’d rather have T2. At least with bitlocker the key is in my Microsoft account so if something happened to my pc and the drive was still intact I can easily access the data again. On a T2 secured Mac, if something happened then I’m screwed.
That's a more interesting usecase. But what you're describing is just an IDE, there's nothing AI about that.
I think that server-side AI is just one component in a module approach with them running as much as they can on-device and with their own models. Imagine an AI powered Siri that runs on device to handle a lot of the basic interaction and functions and then calls out to the server for more heavy lifting.
The wealth transfer hypothesis I didn’t really get, but their other hypothesis that it’s a way to nudge non-employees out of the fund is probably right.
What happens when an antimatter black hole collides with a matter black hole? We'd see gravitational waves but no photons, right? Would the grav waves reflect the tremendous energy release somehow?
I know you're making a joke but this meme that AI will kill programming jobs is imo false.

What it will kill are (very junior) coding jobs. In the way that computers killed typists but not writers.
I agree that is unfortunate however I would argue the package should have been built that way in the first place. It's not the best thing to do now but better late than never. I wonder if the Debian maintainer would consider some sort of transactional package which brings in the new package if you had the original one installed. However, as someone who has used Keepass and did not realise it had all these extra functionalities, I think the assessment that most users will see no difference is ultimately closer to the truth than many people realise. I migrated away from Keepass specifically because I thought it had no network functions which makes all this drama especially ironic for a software that was marketed (at the time) as a password manager to keep on your own device and not someone else's machine.
I abandoned KeePassX (pre XC fork) when they made wonky changes ~10 years ago.

Use Bitwarden (optionally run your own sync server) or Keeper (for less technical people).
Yea that was on display at my onboarding in 2012. The 1940s segment skipped over the complicity towards their German partnership with the Nazis in the Holocaust so it was pretty lost on me.
It appears to require network access. A file manager should not be dialing anything, especially not on startup.

I agree about the jobs, but not about the web part. Any image or blob of text have absolutely lost its meaning. Every comment has an undertone of “is it written by a human?” question surrounding it. It wasn’t really the case 5 years ago, and as it became ubiquitous, even my friends who are not in tech-adjacent fields feel the same way. Benefit of the doubt that one is a human behind a comment has been shifted, so now you have to prove you’re not actually an LLM-bot.

Unfortunately it’s only going to get worse. Just like how digital art has zero significance nowadays (hay-days of 2008 deviantART, when some digital art was considered impressive, is gone), so will a lot of other things. My only hope is, it will boost something else that we don’t know yet, or maybe we’ll go back to prioritizing the reality.
It can also work the other way around. When I install Apache on other distros I end up having to disable so many modules -- whereas the default Apache config in Debian is pretty watertight I never really have to mess around with modules. Likewise installing PHP only installs the core PHP module, you have to specifically install the extras. Other distros install everything including the kitchen sink. Needless to say, I'll take the Debian approach, warts and all.
This reminds me of "The gift of it's your problem now" (2021):

The best part of free software is it sometimes produces stuff you never would have been willing to pay to develop (Linux), and sometimes at quality levels too high to be rational for the market to provide (sqlite).

The worst part of free software is you get what you get, and the developers don't have to listen to you. (And as a developer, the gift recipients aren't always so grateful either.)

It's the tyranny inherent to dependency-hell monolithic package management. nix avoids this problem by permitting multiple versions and flexible configurations of the same package.
Games with substantial roles for LLMs may be more like human GMed TTRPGs and less like traditional static-structured computer games, with less fixed narratives.
Yeah, typically northern lights look like faint white clouds with a little bit of green tint to naked eye. The photos are like those time-exposure photos of the milky way, which is not what the eye sees.
It’s a little disappointing that the way most people will experience AI is going to be through just a few companies (Apple, Microsoft, OpenAI). If they all adopt a similar approach to censorship (safety), that creates various problems for society. Not to mention that kind of economic and cultural power should not be in the hands of a few.
But electronics probably would. I have fried a micro-controller with a leaky industrial microwave waveguide before.

FWIW I'm an aircraft mechanic and the only complaint I've ever heard related to solar storms was that the HF radio stopped working. Which isn't a radio thats going to be used or even installed on a typical airliner.

Although it could also disrupt satellite communication causing some delays in flight planning and aircraft/crew turnaround.

For a fun anecdote, when the HF radio fault was reported we weren't aware of the troubles in the ionosphere. After a few hours of troubleshooting on the system and not finding any problems I flippantly remarked that it must've been a solar flare because the radios perfect. 15 minutes later I was reading the news and saw the headline.
I use many products with AI features bolted on, and I haven't used a single one beyond briefly playing to see what it can do (usually very little). Is this really what we're spending billions of dollars on?
You seem to view the only way computer games can be enjoyable is aa tightly-scripted near-movies. And that's certainly one model, but hardly (even without LLMs) the only model that has proven enjoyable. LLMs potentially (I think they’ve got a wat to go before this is really viable, but the potential is there) open up new styles of conputer gaming.

Which is pretty much what all other Debian package maintainers do. For Debian users it's expected they ensure the software they are packaging fits in with the Debian way of doing things. This is what Debian users want -- if they wanted all packages 'nude' with no changes applied there are other distros e.g. Arch that are much better suited. I personally tried other distros which tries to package as close to upstream as possible, and I was pretty surprised by the poor upstream defaults of many packages and lack of useful utilities. E.g. Apache is so much better packaged by Debian -- it wasn't until I installed Apache in Arch that I realised many of the useful stuff I used in Debian was actually Debian-specific. Most packages in Debian come with very good defaults that my "setup" script (i.e. install/configure packages) for my Debian machine is literally <50 lines whereas for Arch it was something like 200 lines including due to having to reconfigure a lot of not-very-well-thought-out upstream defaults that Arch kept in place.

I note elsewhere in this thread that all they did was disable an option from the upstream build script -- suggesting this is an acceptable option provided by upstream themselves? I think suggesting a rename is a bridge too far given even upstream provides a way to build the software without the extra functionality behind what sounds like a simple build option flag.

What you’re missing is that Apple doesn’t build products or services just to offer random new things, like Google or Microsoft do. Offerings have to be refined and fit within their product vision.

I would be surprised if they released a ChatGPT style chat bot. Likely it will just improve the quality of Siri and search, among other things. I wouldn’t be surprised if Siri has already been benefiting from recent developments.

You’re also implying that they’re moving slowly because they’re a lumbering behemoth, but really they’re just being cautious with an immature and potentially volatile technology.

Think about it: GPT-DAN, free flights and cars being offered by ai chat bots… at Apple scale that would be disastrous.

At the end of the day the volunteer is a volunteer for the Debian project (not KeepassXC or others) and doing what is deemed right for the Debian project.

As a Debian user the volunteer's decision seems in line with Debian's ethos.
Definitely. I can't help but be slightly amused at the choice of words though, given "virtuous" comes from the Latin for "manly" (vir = man).

I’ve seen both.

Last night from London the most I could see with my naked eye was diffuse patches of faint pink and green - sometimes highlighted by marginally brighter white-pink streaks that cut across the patches. The camera however picked them up as dramatic bright pink/green columns of light with rarely any trace of the blackness of the sky.

When I was in Iceland a few years ago though - I distinctly remember being easily able to make out super bright and well define dancing wavy bands of bright green, pink, purple and orange (with high contrast compared to the surrounding dark sky) with my naked eye. The camera again picked up the same thing but with the blackness of the sky covered by a green /pink coloured background - something definitely brighter but less well defined that what I could see with my naked eye (and the camera images were not necessarily superior than what I could see in this case).

TL:DR; I’ve seen both versions of what you describe with my naked eye and it’s definitely not bullshit! When people say they can’t see anything like the pictures - I would have to guess that they either have never been in an area with significant activity or maybe didn’t have dark enough skies without light pollution.
