Just FYI apparently #Universeodon has switched to the incredibly abusive and poorly maintained oliphant block list that is itself dictated, in part, of mastodon.art's abusive block list.

See my response here: https://mastodon.acm.org/@freemo/111908751487276074

As well as the Admin admitting this is the case here: https://mastodon.acm.org/@wild1145@universeodon.com/111889411895912635

very disappointed in their lack of due diligence.

My #FOSDEM presentation about #Wayland video offloading is online. If you are interested, you can watch it here: https://fosdem.org/2024/schedule/event/fosdem-2024-3557-the-state-of-video-offloading-on-the-linux-desktop/

I'm happy about feedback, both on the technical side as well as how I can improve doing presentations :)

@AmpBenzScientist

Yes, I read it all... ;-)

I am probably more hopeful that we will see progress (outside copy/paste-china) for all but the most compute intensive usages, i.e. embedded controllers.

With prices for custom asic also dropping quickly, I think there is a future for open source adopted by many non-asic companies, and a decent job market for people with experience in it.

We are now roughly at 1990 in software, long way to go.

But is there any serious RISC-V that is "open source" licensed?

An free/open specification doesn't mean that free/open RISC-V implementations exists that are of high enough quality.

Fellow nerdicators... what do you use as a replacement for google calendar.

Most important thing is having something cool, unique, innovative, and just plan novel, not a remix... something special :)

OSS is a plus, and having a beautiful web front end is also a huge plus

Will QuickJS JavaScript Engine run on Apache #NuttX RTOS? 🤔

@AmpBenzScientist It can be a bit rough on the gut and the wallet.

@AmpBenzScientist That's the launching site. I'm talking about the orbit.

Alcohol is called a solvent because it solves tension in the material and loosens it up. If you blend it with something else, this is called a solution.

@AmpBenzScientist They have systems like that in data centres. You want to leave real quick or you'll suffocate.

Still thinking about that one time when I shot a training video as a freelance gig, and later on, watching the footage again, I realised that the talent was probably drunk. He was so nervous about being in front of a camera that he got drunk to relax a little. It's like Nancy Pelosi. I remember watching a live broadcast of her on CNN and I realised she was drunk. People will drink to numb their feelings before going to work, so they can think logically and endure the stress.

The fire alarm keeps going off in this condo all the time. Horrible loud noise. Lots of false alarms. It's like a psychologic terror operation. If there is an actual fire in here, people will ignore the alarm and die in the fire. I can go and look at the fire alarm panel to see which apartment unit triggered it this time and if there's not any smoke coming out, I'm not leaving the building.
