I know github would probably steal it (I have my own forgejo server). Didn't know about VS code doing that. You have any source for that? I guess proprietary MS plugins might do so, but surely there would be backlash if the open source version did so. So I hope using Code OSS would be fine. Might switch to vscodium though, which shouldn't phone home at all.

I'd also add this reason (in addition to embarrasement): I don't open source my stuff because I know microsoft will "steal it" to train copilot.

If you're trying to write C code in Rust for a few hours you haven't really given it a proper go. You're just fighting the compiler. Believe me, I've been there. It was just the learning curve before I put aside my pride and adjusted how I wrote code.

Even if AI successfully replaces workers, it is doomed to fail. Because if everyone is replaced by AI, who is going to pay for the products/services from the companies anymore? It's all about being the first one to replace their workers with AI, for short term profit until society collapse.

The problem with using touch in a car is that you're supposed to look at the road, not at a screen. Whether something is easily controllable could be a matter of life and death. Something physical you can reach by muscle memory is safer in this context. So yeah the basic controls should be tactile and intuitive. Anyones grandma should be able to figure out how to turn on the wipers if the rain sensor didn't do its job. Or adjust the fan quickly if the window fogs up.

I think/hope this will change in the future. There's been a lot of backlash against touch screens, touch buttons, subscriptions for basic functionality, etc. The car industry is struggling right now. At some point I think they will have to make simpler EVs, because normies don't want ipads on wheels. They want something reliable and familiar that won't break the bank.

Perhaps this could be used to jailbreak the PS5 🤔

Yeah I have an xperia 5 iii. It's not compact, it's just narrow (seriously hate the ultra wide phone displays). Also heavy as a brick.

In ~/src Mostly because I'm too lazy to type "source".

Kinda not what you're asking about but pop OS does provide an nvidia version of the ISO, so you wouldn't need to configure anything in the first place if you chose the correct ISO. Same with nobara, and probably other gaming focused distros.

Might be related to those sleep state stuff that microsoft keep pushing. I think LTT has a video about how it causes battery to drain while off. I think the solution was either shutting it down while unplugged, or while plugged in or something. If you always shut the laptop down with the charger plugged in try to unplug the charger before shutting it down and see if it makes a difference. Or the opposite. I don't remember which it was.

To be fair I haven't configured a firewall either on my laptop. But that's out of lazyness, not out of good practice. Good practice would be to have a firewall enabled. Just because something is unlikely to happen statistically doesn't mean it's bad practice to take steps to protect against it.
