The analogy probably gets used for longer than just one week

They are amazing but at the end of the day they are still humans and they can make mistakes. In the YouTube video referenced one of the C devs is heavily against rust.

Decided to go look for CVEs from code the guy manages (Ted Ts’o) I found these

CVE-2024-42304 — crash from undocumented function parameter invariants

CVE-2024-40955 — out of bounds read

CVE-2024-0775 — use-after-free

CVE-2023-2513 — use-after-free

CVE-2023-1252 — use-after-free

CVE-2020-14314 — out of bounds read

CVE-2019-19447 — use-after-free

CVE-2018-10879 — use-after-free

CVE-2018-10878 — out of bounds write

CVE-2018-10881 — out of bounds read

CVE-2014-8086 — race condition

CVE-2011-2493 — call function pointer in uninitialized struct

CVE-2009-0748 — null pointer dereference

Do you see a pattern in the type of error here? It’s pretty much entirely memory related and right in the wheelhouse of something rust would just outright not allow short of just slapping everything into unsafe blocks.

The Old Guard is not perfect, and they are acting as a barrier to new talent coming in. Sometimes change is good and I’m heavily in the camp that rust one of those times. Linus seems to agree as he allowed the code into the kernel which he would never do lightly or just because it’s fomo

Nah, you just turn your living room into a raised bed garden. Forage through dumpsters, hunt stray City cats and fish aquariums that people keep near windows. Easy

This is hilarious because Bluey is a girl

“woman are not in the tournament of my own life”

… Pretty sure my phone just roasted me

It uses a fox girl for its mascot so that tells me everything I need to know. (it’s clearly the best)

Works on plasma Wayland. At least for the index with steamvr

It’s literally not more profit for them, especially depending on what the person is buying. Costco is able to offer lower prices than a lot of other places specifically because the memberships help make up for what would otherwise be losses on margins

I feel like that’s stretching the definition of drive-thru. I guess you still don’t need to get out of your car but it feels like curbside delivery with extra steps

A drive-thru would be a disaster, their average turnaround time on orders is like five plus minutes drive-thrus need to be able to be pushed out in generally under 2 minutes.

I feel like people forget that they don’t pre-cook their burgers. Drive-thru’s only work because a lot of the food is pre-made based on popularity and just sits under a warmer

Yeah i was just coming to say wtf is this. If my room is 68 I can’t fucking sleep and I’m dying. That’s a perfectly comfortable temperature for being awake and up and around but once I’m laying down I become a furnace and the absolute highest temperature that I can comfortably sleep is 60 but the lower the better

Off-grid inverters bypass a LOT of that. And i should have been more clear on no backfeed. I would never recommend backfeed tbh. It comes with insane amounts of red tape, as you’ve noted, the equipment is also much more expensive for grid tie.

Off-grid inverters are basically a backup UPS on steroids. They accept grid as an input but don’t feed back to it. They have far less regulation on their installations. Some places indeed you will still have some but usually you can get away with just having the final install inspected by a master electrician.

If you do it yourself it can be so much cheaper, For example with a goal of about 20k spent This bundle gets you 12Kw of inverter output and 30Kwh of batteries for 11k. Then just grab two Of these solar panel pallets for 28Kw of panels. Or Alternatively go smaller with just one pallet and save a bit. Then ofc you will get the 30% federal tax credit on top of everything

Not everybody is going to want to do it themselves I get that, it’s actually very easy and straightforward I posted another comment here up above that goes into more detail but honestly just about anyone could learn to do it it’s not advanced electrical work by any stretch of the imagination.

To be fair this is just if you pay professionals to do it. They charge astronomically out the ass for labor for no reason. The actual cost of the equipment is surprisingly little if you buy it yourself, and installing it is very straightforward and easy you do not need to be particularly intelligent or skilled. I’ve done about five different systems at this point, two on RVs and three on houses. One of the houses and one of the RVs was my own and the rest are friends that I have helped set it up.

For example with a goal of about 20k spent This bundle gets you 12Kw of inverter output and 30Kwh of batteries for 11k. Then just grab two Of these solar panel pallets for 28Kw of panels. Or Alternatively go smaller with just one pallet and save a bit. Then ofc you will get the 30% federal tax credit on top of everything.

Ask any installer for a similar sized system and it’s almost certainly going to be 80k+ at minimum. The only part you may definitely want a professional for is if you plan on roof mounting them, have a roofer come help install the framing so you can ensure no leaks. But for ground mount (or if you are familiar with roofing) even that’s not needed.

The actual electrical works is very straight forward. Everything is very clearly labeled, the documentation is very explicit about what goes where. On the solar panel side you’re literally working with DC so you’re literally only dealing with positive and negative. Even on the AC coupling side when you’re talking about an off-grid inverter you’re not back feeding into the grid so it’s very straightforward. Your house grid goes into the input, and your output on the inverter goes to your panel.

The only stuff to watch out for in the NEC is rules about where your secondary panel for the solar output can be placed, has to be a certain distance from the ground, has to have a certain amount of clearance around it on all sides, has to be accessible, stuff like that but it’s all fairly easy to just look up thankfully

It’s not even just the os, don’t get me wrong that’s a huge part of it but the control layouts and the quality of the buttons on all these other competitors to the steam deck are just garbage. Why the absolute fuck does no one want to do symmetrical joysticks, I will never use asymmetrical joysticks. Why does everything need to be offset and weird and why is the touchpad always an afterthought shoved into the smallest possible corner. I use the touchpads on the steam deck literally constantly, either for radial menus or even in games like factorio just as a mouse

Here is a version with more pixels

It’s not as if I can be actually helpful, you’ve given people nothing to go on other than it didn’t work for me. But seeing as literally everyone’s experiences that it works out of the box on any piece of Hardware they’ve ever touched the only thing that can tell me is that something is horrendously broken with your Linux installation. What could that be? I have no way to know, but it’s obvious that something is not even remotely how it should be the only advice I could give is to completely reinstall your Linux from scratch. Which is the same advice I would give to a Windows user facing a similar problem of something that should just work right out of the box and does for literally everybody except them

I’m going to assume that you do not mean Deep Rock Galactic with that acronym because that has worked out of the box since day one I play it regularly with friends on the steam deck and on my Linux desktop and the only thing I had to do was click play in Steam.

Can’t help you with your emulators, I used dolphin to play dokepone Kingdom regularly over VPN without any issues didn’t have to do anything special either so that one just sounds like a skill issue

Northern Canada is still almost entirely empty and cold. So give it a bit and it will be the only spot with summers under 80°
