Empirically, 42.25 instead of 42.

The interesting thing is if the manufacturer is shipping them that way by default.

I’m on ml and it seems pretty general. It has a bit more fringe contingent than world, but everything else is there too.

I’m an antifan of Apple but the M4 Max is supposed to be faster than any x86 desktop CPU, and use a lot less power. That’s per geekbench 6. I’d be interested in seeing other measurements.

This is about installing on a Nexus 5 which is from 2013. Sounds painful.

Does gnu bc have outstanding bug reports? If not, it doesn’t need updates. Its spec was frozen 30 years ago, more or less. Rather than unmaintained, I’d call it maintenance-free. BIFL software as it were. Sounds great to me.

Seems like a whine, bc is an interactive tool and it’s unusual to use it for anything where its response isn’t instant.

GNU bc is one of the oldest GNU tools and it uses an MP library that RMS banged out in an afternoon or two, I think. It could probably be adapted to use GMP which is very high performance.

Preferring GPL to other licenses seems fine with me, unless I want to work for Amazon without getting paid.

I use autotools and don’t remember having such issues.

Good luck!

People still pay that much for 8-bit S-100 machines?

I’m too tired to read that carefully right now, but it looks interesting, and calls Gelsinger out on some dumb stuff. I had thought that he had simply taken on a messed up company and done the best he could, spouting some BS here and there as required. Oh well.

Irish green party, not Jill Stein.

Peace, in Landru.

It’s a wealth tax and not an income tax? Interesting. Is it annual, or just once, or what?

I think everyone likes to glue down batteries now because that helps the phone’s drop protection. The adhesive strips aren’t so bad since you can heat them a little / use a spudger to get the battery out. It’s worse when they make it very hard to get to the battery, or make you unglue delicate parts like the screen. You are probably right to be pessimistic though.

Check ifixit before you buy a phone, to make sure diy battery replacement is not too difficult. Then you don’t have to worry as much. Just figure on a swap or two during the phone’s lifetime.

Other than that, keep charge level between 20% and 80% as someone said. But I think in that range, it’s ok to fast charge within reason.

Supposedly starting in 2027, all phones sold in EU will have user replaceable batteries.

Yeah I kept a tmo plan for a stupid amount of time. Eventually MVNO plans were just cheaper, so i switched. Why does anyone want to stay on some legacy plan anyway? Were any of them any good? This is what I would get for very low usage on tmobile now:

I wonder if he wrote some of the CUDA code or anything like that.

should I completely jumpship to linux when windows 10 ends support

Nah, there’s no need to wait.
