you gotta be kidding me, the indian government asked to block GitHub URLs in an official order

[Anish Gawande @anishgawande]

Getting trolled by the right wing, which is outraged that I used the word "f*****g" on an NDTV debate.

They are not outraged that a young woman was lying on a ventilator at RML Hospital because the police beat her on the neck. About how CCTV cameras were disabled to let the police run amock on the streets of Delhi. About how a policeman shoved a rod into a woman's private parts.

Let them be outraged. I will be outraged for the young people who were brutally assaulted yesterday. And if I lose my temper in my anger, so be it.

they can kill the network. they can't kill the crowd. phones pass encrypted messages hand to hand to hand over bluetooth — no internet, no towers, no servers. jammers don't even touch it.

100% open source, fork it, improve it, spread it.

Which news channels are covering today's protest?

Someday I hope to be as free from the shackles of society as Alankar

@wangzhr4 Secure boot breaks peripheral drivers. Turn off secure boot. Boot with advanced options. Apply driver fixes if any. Reboot normally.

Remember, Dual Boot ON - Secure Boot OFF

Just curious, what resources did you use to build such a project ? @erin_catto

From reading a comment inside the box2d repo, box2d referred to 'real time collision detection book', did you use the same for this one as well ?

[Erin Catto @erin_catto]

I’m happy to announce the release of a new open source 3D physics engine called Box3D. I’ve been working on this project for a few years now, but it represents over 20 years of experience writing physics engines for games. Read more here: https://t.co/2d9aVuUsxj

Box3D has been announced?!?!?!

@ChShersh Being able to control supply at will and choosing to sell things at such high margins is pure greed

These very people don't know what it takes to put food on the table. Farmlands being sold for data centers and compute power. One fine day these decisions will come to bite back

[S A I @saianonymous]

Meanwhile GPUs used in such centers would only be recycled when they become obsolete technology, because they want you to buy "cutting edge" compute service that you don't own.

Most companies don't bother making such hardware last, they try to sabotage them when they want to

[S A I @saianonymous]

In the context of GPU hardware, you would argue that it is sitting idle, but that would mean it is not consuming power

So stupid to make such statements while hiding away nuances conveniently

And coming to owning hardware, it never goes waste until the device itself breaks down

[LaurieWired @lauriewired]

you’ll get mad at me for saying this…but cloud gaming is so obviously more economically efficient than physical hardware I think it’s going to be the default soon.

your home console / pc is idle 90%+ of the day. meanwhile, data centers targets what, 5%, maybe at worst 10% idle.

every second a cloud gamer isn’t gaming, that hardware is being used for someone else, training, etc.

I think there should be a new measurement, something like cost-per effective FLOP hour that takes into account the TCO + effective utilization.

If a gamer spends $500 on a GPU, uses it for 3 years, but it’s only fully active ~5% of that period…the cost-per relative FLOP hour is crazy high! Meanwhile, a $50,000 datacenter GPU might have a *LOWER* cost-per FLOP hour just because the effective utilization is 90+%.

[S A I @saianonymous]

Ohh @lauriewired, you done goofed this time!

[S A I @saianonymous]

@lauriewired By this logic you should never own a house and live on rent because you are going to die anyway

[Kurufal @kurufal]

Your post reads like a corporate script designed to justify the transition to subscription-based computing. This post is likely part of an exposure effect campaign to normalize the idea 'Compute as a Service.'

Don't pretend you understand the 'you'll own nothing' meme to make light of what you're trying to say here.

You're wrong.
And you're using a random usage statistic to justify it.

You're framing 'idle time' as an inefficiency, but that fundamentally misses the point of ownership. My hardware doesn't owe anyone a minimum utilization rate; it exists to be available exactly when I need it, not when a data center needs to monetize it.

Up until quite literally 2 months ago I was still using a 1080ti which was purchased on launch.

I don't care that you personally know someone who got rid of their PC because they don't use it. The one-off examples of wage slaves don't concern me.

Your TCO math is a joke because it ignores rent-seeking. You're trading long-term ownership for a fragile, temporary rental service that only exists as long as a company deems it profitable.

@_streetdogg So much effort just to sell courses

[S A I @saianonymous]

@telegram Could you possibly track down leaked papers and post them here to get back at them?

@PixelpulseG @EricLengyel Read harfbuzz source code

[S A I @saianonymous]

@SyntaxError2505 Don't use := for something that is evaluated
SRC = $(eval)
SRC_FOLDER := src , is fine because it is explicitly defined
