We actually have this. Obviously not this particular font. My family were all printers and I've sort of inherited a huge cabinet full of old school typefaces all carved out of some special kind of hard wood - pear wood - all over 100 years old. Absolutely 0 idea what we can do with it, but it's all hand made and very cool. Felt pertinet to share lol
Lineage on a Xiaomi redmi 10 pro, everything working perfectly (also dual SIM and SD card + headphone jack) get about 2 days battery life. Though it's quite old now so I've no idea if it is as good as a OP5 or not lol
The way you have to hide from apps is a bit weird these days using magisk filters, but other than that the entire thing has been set and forget, and I've not had any issues
I simply don't trust publicly traded companies these days. I genuinely can't think of an example where a private company in the tech space has become better since going public. I don't like to MBA bash, but it large tech companies genuinely seem filled with people who don't even like tech (let alone love it) and are just happy to squeeze everything and everyone at any opportunity. I'm genuinely concerned and waiting for the enshittification of the next round of companies - people like cloudflare - then I guess I'll just give up on anything mainstream and remain an indy Dev doing indy things for fun
You're not wrong...but it will get there and get better. I believe asahi will be a driving force behind it, and arm in general being more widely used for non mobile device stuff....however (despite using fedora on arm64 as a daily driver) I firmly believe we're going to be 6-12 months absolute minimum until arm docker is "alright" (I'm also broadly including fully user transparent x86 emulation into this sweeping statement with no basis lol)
massive YMMV moment for me. my particular usecase was "extract the following attributes from a load of unstructured text, format the results as JSON". ChatGPT was the best (but only on 4 and Davinci), Vicuna just didn't perform at all (nor other variants of llama 7/13/33). Bard smashed it, relatively speaking, in terms of speed. I gave up pretty quickly though because of no information on pricing and/or API. It's funny how all-or-nothing these things seem to be
To actually answer your question and not bow to the HN-is-reddit comment above: London draws on Kent/other surrounding areas temporarily... big cities (usually) feed into small ones. This (usually) is how it works. In the case of COVID we saw 999 response units being shipped all over the country, including call handlers (ie. England handling Scotland's calls) and response units. There are SO many plans in place for this/time-slip/major incident handling that it's mind boggling.
Source: worked for the NHS, still alive despite there being 48 hour cat 1 waits and no ambulances in the entire country.
Sorry, but this is just wrong. There is absolutely no way that an average wait time - usually 7 minutes - for a cat 1 call will be 48 hours. Unless someone made a heinous mistake and somehow forgot a call one time, it never "on occasion" goes to 48 hours. As soon as it goes over a relatively small number (30 mins odd) they start bringing in other districts to help.
Are you really telling me that we just decided to let people die for 2 days straight? Got any proof on that one?
Agreed, if anyone wants some good insight, this video is fantastic. It gets to the tech stuff about 20 mins in iirc and explains some quite surprisingly open aspects of the apple ecosystem and some approaches to funky stuff with the closed bits.
Never agreed with something so much more in my life. Points 1-3 in particular. I understand their logic of not wanting to "pollute" the core products with these features.... but it's sort of past the point now where you're starting to expect this stuff in a modern database product (instead of add-ons, hacks, and outdated blog posts)
with all due respect, youve now just basically told an entire anonymous message board that someone in your family is/was related to the security services. This is basically the example why you dont tell people this stuff. The entire article reeks of bs...everyone who has even remotely been involved in any of this knows exactly what youre meant to say if anyone asks you...and its sure as shit not "ok tell everyone x, except if theyre from the financial times, then just be honest" lol
Another annoying thing about this wrt them discouraging it, you need a Microsoft professional/enterprise account (I forget what they call it) to see the sha256 hashes, which they used to make publicly available until a few years ago
I'd recommend Ubuntu also. However I can't stand their default desktop environment, so I'd either recommend Ubuntu mate, or (what I did) the latest and greatest Ubuntu, and then just sudo apt-get install cinnamon-desktop-environment which will give you a desktop with a start menu more akin to windows.
