Riding horses, hacking computers, phones and smartwatch.
@Linux Nothing is 100% closed source these days. And Jolla was more closed-source than just the blobs. Try not to mislead people.

@linmob @Tekchip Yeah, more competition in phones would be good. But...

@0xabad1dea I believe you misunderstood the challenge :-). They believe the data has some hidden pattern in it, and they are asking you to identify the pattern. Based on the data source, their assumptions are not completely crazy.

@drewdevault Ok, got the cdrom version. It boots in qemu, nice. Login: guest? No. root works. But doom does not, sh gives an error :-(.

@monsieuricon Basically, language model maps text to probability. LLM is no different :-).

@monsieuricon I'd not say that's what LLMs should be good for. They should be good for... well.. language modelling. So text-to-speech, "please fix grammar in following text", "please add diacritics here" and they should improve translation. For question answering.... its miracle it works as well as it does.

@oleksandr People said that about plan 9. Seems like Linux is stealing some ideas, but probably not enough of them.

@mjg59 @griibor @ryanc If GPL3 components are replaceable,you are always free to replace them with versions that do _not_ constrain other things, right? It is easy for proprietary software to work against machine owners, but same problem should not exist for GPL3 software. (GPL2 has it.)

@fell I had that with SSD, too... thanks to singing capacitors :-). I'm sure audio driver could be improved to emulate that, but no, I don't miss that one.

@agx @argv_minus_one PinePhones should be cheaply available at the moment.

@linmob @Tekchip I'm not sure why all the excitement about Jolla. Yes, it would be nice to have real competitor in mobile space. OTOH, Sailfish is even less open-source than Android. (Ok, it has less custom components than Android, but still...) (And... umm... Russia... umm...). If Android inside is good compromise, there are more interesting projects... Ubuntu Touch, Droidian. And there is more fun stuff, did you know about NuttX on PinePhone? https://github.com/lupyuen/pinephone-nuttx

@pocketvj @rmader Back cameras should be 16 and 20 MPix... I guess we'll learn what the real limits are when we get full drivers.

@rmader Thanks for pointer. So apparently it is for depth effects.

@rmader Does anyone have an idea why #oneplus6 has two back cameras with very similar parameters?

@cas @fahrni Rust is hot but did not work well with Gtk last time I tried.

@rmader I was not sure which parts are missing. I am using Droidian, so downstream kernel, and I can't even figure out how camera is supposed to work there. Normally, debugging is required all over the place -- sensor drivers, i2c, soc input... and this has 3 different sensors, for a start :-(. I guess op6 has some kind of isp that would need libcamera support, but basic support should be possible without that. #OnePlus6 .

@rmader I have #OnePlus6 here, and I'd love to play with its cameras. I believe "only need kernel patches enabling the camera sensors" is understatement of the year -- it is not just sensors, but if you or someone can get that working, I'll be happy to help.
