Your second point about why people in Texas might be less biased is the distance to primary locations of tech companies perhaps? I don't think that it is convincing, but a lack of trust is the most severe problem of fact checkers.

I believe the concept cannot work though, especially if I look at the broader context.

No, user feedback is the better control mechanism. Also these fact checkers would never be independent and they would develop their own interest for even more moderation. They would never report that there isn't any more controversial content to be checked, because that is their raison d'être from day one.
but does that mean that Facebook all along never cared about things like domestic violence, racial equality, and stuff?

This is amazing news. I wonder if this means we’re going to see a TV/home console with Steam OS soon.

I am currently borrowing a friend’s Steam Deck to try it out. It’s absolutely amazing, particularly around starting and stopping gaming sessions.

The only thing holding be back from buying it is that the processing power is a couple of years outdated at this point. It still works fine for older AAA games (or newer lighter games), but it can’t keep up with new AAA.

Having the option of newer hardware with the Steam OS experience is amazing!

Show HN: I built a tool to help attendees connect after events
Hi HN,

I’ve just started my solopreneur journey and recently launched my second tool.

I have had this ideas for a few years as I attended many conferences/events/retreats. I didn’t want to constantly ask for people their socials or have a bunch of business cards.

So I built AfterLinker to make it easier to stay connected after these events.

Here’s how it works:
1. The organizer shares a group link.
2. Participants join and add their socials/links, which are automatically shared within the group.
3. Everyone can easily access each other’s socials/links.

I’d love your thoughts, feedback, or ideas for improvement!

I skimmed the paper but I couldn't figure out what they're doing to make concepts fundamentally different from tokens.

I would think that the purpose of concepts is to capture information at a higher density than tokens, so you can remember a longer conversation or better produce long-form output.

Given that, I would have expected that during the training phase, the concept model is evaluated based on how few concepts it emits until it emits a stop.

Banning social media sites is a pretty draconian approach that probably will not work anyway and I believe it to be completely reactionary. The EU formerly did have influence on Twitter content. They lost that and aren't too happy about that.

I think it was a necessary correction and I don't want to live in the EU silo and I don't trust their DSA "trusted flaggers". What do they ban next, HN? I don't think it has official fact checkers either.

2) Any ubuntu touch supported devices: https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/promoted/

Would be very stable... And good enough for daily use..

But honestly even degoogled Android on a well supported phone like Pixel + Termux is fairly good enough to use these days. I don't see the value of running desktop Linux software on these devices anymore...
Microsoft won’t care.

Microsoft lost interest in Windows. It doesn’t care what windows users want, it just wants to wring every dime out of it with crap ware and artificial restrictions on hardware so you can’t run it in your perfectly capable old machines.

It’s time for better options on the Intel platform.
> Since then it evolved into an actual OS

Funnily enough Valve tried to make Steam OS happen before Proton was a thing, for some reason they just expected game developers to port their games to Linux on their own dime. Thankfully they realized that was never going to happen at scale, so Proton was born instead.
It probably depends on the type of club/event.

Back in the day, there were rave/dance type clubs which were all about the dancing. They'd typically have focused genres of music, well known or regular DJs, etc.

Then there were more generic nightclubs (usually in University towns) which were where people went to either get drunk or hook up. Those would typically not focus much on music (usually playing crowd pleasers, 50s/60s/70s/80s/ tunes etc.), and instead bringing people in with cheap drinks offers, foam parties, fancy dress nights, etc.
Yeah, it seems they've finally added some local caching to the app. Previously when their services were down the Connect app was completely useless, but now even though the graphs aren't updating, I can still see a lot of information.

Web accessibility describes specific requirements for people with disabilities to be able to use your website. If you don't implement these features, blind people, colorblind people, people who can't use a mouse, etc., won't be able to use your website. You can make a strategic choice not to support these users for reasons like ROI. But obviously there are plenty of situations where either we make the affirmative choice not to exclude people with disabilities, or we're required by law to accommodate them. In my personal opinion, we should always build on the web with the modern features that support assistive technologies, and that building inaccessible web experiences is synonymous with building poor quality web experiences. Many of the (mostly native) features that enable an experience accessible to people with disabilities improve the experience for all users.

I have a Planet Computers Gemini, which is a reinterpretation of the Psion Series 5, running Android but you can also install Linux. They have new models since, but I've heard reports the company is not honoring orders, so caveat emptor.

I think that GP meant it relative to the other mentioned luxury products.

But honestly, I think many people buy Apple products they can't reasonably afford and end up in trouble because of that. A new iPhone is luxury. You can't really live without a smartphone these days (not just in "tier 1" countries!), but a $200 device covers your basics just as well as a $1000 iPhone.

And before someone tells me they can live without a smartphone. I guess you can, but that may actually be the ultimate luxury, that is, it is more expensive to live without a smartphone than to live with one. It is telling that most of the homeless have smartphones, usually Android.

Back then it could only run Linux native games... I'm not sure if their old steam OS version even integrated Proton properly back then.

The current version (Steam OS 3) is rebuilt from scratch and there are a lot of under the hood changes...
Mainly packaging and bundling everything together in one drop-in package for every day users to get access to. I've run Linux for 20+ years now, and gotten steam games working a few times over that period of time. Not hard, not impossible, but is probably more than the average Windows user wants to figure out.

SteamOS is really about bringing that final experience to the most number of people, and I am really supportive of their efforts!

I’d also love to find out, I’m also on the lookout for a similar device. What I have found are SBCs on r/SBCgaming offering rock chip ARM Linux devices for under $50-100. Iirc http://retrocatalog.com/ is good for searching.
Tangential, but it would make sense that areas with more variable terrain (i.e. BC) would likely see more or more severe injuries than flat areas (i.e. Saskatchewan).
As far as I know, you can drop back to desktop mode on SteamOS and be on your way.

And yet if manufacturers cared enough about UX it wouldn't take much for input failures to be subconsciously correctable again. All you need is some kind of immediate feedback - an arrow appearing on-screen for each button press, for instance (or a beep - but I'd be the first to turn that off, so for the love of all that is holy, don't make it always-on!).

What's crucial, though, is that mistakes or overshoots can be (a) detected (for example, if three presses were detected, show three arrows) and (b) corrected without having to wait for the channel change to complete.

Because it seems to me that modern OS design is caught in a deep deep rut, and the "OS in 1000 lines" article that we are discussing is digging that rut even deeper.

> be ok with what you want to learn (some think everybody must be an orchestral pianist)

I relate to that: I was inflicted a couple years of piano lessons as a kid, and hated every minute of it - because I detested the music that my teacher and my family considered appropriate.

40 years later, I stumble on electronic musics and realize I would enjoy making some - and I joyfully (and incompetently) began on that path, lately becoming ripe for some dry theory because I now value it.

Each person is different though: my daughter always enjoyed the technical exercises for their own sake !
> an enormous amount of watches becomes useless worldwide

Not necessarily, some (many?) of these watches are usable without being connected to a phone. Besides being a funcional watch, including timers and alarms, all the fitness tracking and activity recording features work fine, even those that use GPS, at least on my Venu 2.
Commoncog Recap
I predict this will get worse as e-bikes increasingly allow people to get to places they do not have the experience, fitness and skill to get their on their own.
I've just started exploring analysing runs from my Garmin watch. In summary:

- Attach watch to laptop via USB-C -> opens like a USB drive, showing all the config and activity data files. You aren't locked into Garmin Connect or Strava or any other platform.

- You can also use the Garmin Connect API and go via the web service. I tried that first. But since discovering the raw data is available directly on the watch, I don't anymore.

- Activity data files are in the FIT format. Garmin has an SDK on GitHub in languages including Python, C# and a few others. I've tried the Python one.

- There are a couple of projects on GitHub for decoding FIT files. I've just started writing my own as I want to output modern Pydantic models. (And the Python code in the Garmin SDK is not the most efficient or idiomatic).

I've had my Garmin watch for 10 months now, and rate it as my best ever purchase for improving my fitness and performance, and for overall motivation to be more active. Having easy access to the raw data files is a huge bonus that I didn't originally consider.
Well, (to treat this seriously, rather than the joke it was) where's your transmitter? And are there vibration-sensitive components inside of either the transmitter or receiver? Several times a month, cars idle outside my apartment with bass loud enough to severely shake my windows, and somewhat shake my walls and floor. I imagine a receiver that's physically attached (or merely very near) to a subwoofer that loud would have trouble maintaining a steady optical link.
Yeap, already a fact with the current deck. Just plug it in your laptop's type-c dock and run Desktop mode.

I've been applying to jobs for the last three months and many companies use systems that automatically parse your resume and then let you manually correct the parsed data. It's nearly always a mess, and I use a very straightforward linear resume template.

It's possible that there is some selection bias here, where mediocre parsing systems give you the option to manually correct everything because they know they are mediocre. I remain skeptical.
same. All of the data should still be stored on the watch and the app, since that works local via Bluetooth. Sync to other services like strava or trainingpeaks should happen once the services are online. Even the external sync on the watches should work, i just updated my deezer playlist on my epix 2 without issues and with connect down.

It might be annoying, but it still works. Without a note in the app, i would not have noticed.
Yes, but the original SteamOS was built on Debian 8 and ultimately failed to gain market share.

SteamOS is a Linux distro that originally came out in 2013. Proton is a custom version of Wine that came out later -- Proton has some added features for integration with Steam, but Wine has been around and has been working well for Windows gaming on Linux for decades.
