And in the 38th edition of Gray’s Anatomy in 1995 it was introduced as just “a small version of the penis”.

When in doubt, just say it's some type of penis.

Never fails.

People are using it because they swallowed the snake oil

And/or have developed AI psychosis after one too many erotic role play sessions.

"I get it through my work" yeah, whatever you say Mathieu.

Why, because you can't afford it (reasonable), because you think it helps Google (unreasonable), because you think it's a privacy risk (unreasonable), or because it feels icky (unreasonable)?

The profits from Pixel hardware sales are a drop in the bucket for Google. I'm pretty sure the only reason it exists is so they can have insight and control over the hardware ecosystem, as without it they'd be driven by whatever Samsung wants to do.

The walled Android ecosystem is where they make the bulk of their money, and Graphene actively pulls people away from that and to something objectively better. Graphene is fully de-Googled and safe from their spyware, and exists outside of their business model. Using and promoting Graphene actively hurts Google, even if you have them $1k for a phone.

Also, there are plenty of cheap second hand pixels on ebay, and Google doesn't see a penny from those sales. Recycling is good for the planet anyways.

• Qualcomm said first class Linux support was something they were interested in
• The entire first generation came and went with no usable Linux on Snapdragon laptops

The second time's the charm?

I read an article recently where EA said there wouldn't be a Sims 5 because expecting people to get rid of all the content they've collected over the years would be mean.

Not sure how much I believe that, but it's weird to think that in a few years/months, people will be reminiscing about today's EA as the good EA

I think what's important in this drama is that, despite their evil monopoly shit they're guilty of, Valve really does do the right thing sometimes to win consumers. Gamers want AI disclosures, even if devs don't.

That's why it's not surprising to see that statement from Sweeny, and why it's not surprising that people still hate the Epic Games Store.

If you already know cron and are too lazy to learn something new, then use cron with the knowledge that it's a personal failure and not a real technical decision... Otherwise, use systemd timers.

Check out this blog post which details how uids work within rootless containers. It's useful troubleshooting knowledge to have.

use Bazzite, or any other distro that calls itself "immutable". That's Linux speak for "it just works, and you won't be able to break it even if you try". There are other immutable distros, but Bazzite is the one most likely to have everything you need out of the box.

Also, look at flathub.org and check if the software you need is on there. If it is, then congrats, you're on the easy path. If not, you might need to use the command line to install what you need from another source.

To be fair, Microsoft's slap on the wrist came from Bush forcing the DOJ to settle. In this situation, it's a spineless judge refusing to enforce the law in the first place.

Rug pulling a blog service? Seriously? Any first year student can make something like this. The name/brand is probably the only part that's remotely valuable, and a rug pull is a good way to fuck that up.

Bazzite. Every other recommendation is wrong.

Bazzite is "immutable". What that basically means is that you won't be able to break it even if you try. And if it does break somehow (for example, because of a bad update), you can fix it by doing a rollback, which is literally a one-line command: sudo rpm-ostree rollback

Sure, there are other immutable distros out there, but Bazzite is probably the most popular right now, and it ships with Nvidia drivers so it's ready to go for 99% of people with no changes necessary.
