wetbeardhairs@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Linux@lemmy.world•Linux From Scratch early question.English14·8 days agoThat’s an interesting problem in computer science. Generally it’s called “bootstrapping” when you build a process that is used to build another process. For instance, compilers like gcc are bootstrapped from a purpose built compiler compiler but then gcc compiles its own source to result in the final product. But that can be done on one machine. Bootstrapping a machine from bare metal pretty much requires another machine.
Perhaps they meant throw bricks at the rich. Not the ones made from soap.
wetbeardhairs@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Steam Deck@sopuli.xyz•New rumor suggests Valve's Steam Deck 2 is much further away than we thought1·13 days agoYeah I was just using proton as an example of a translation layer that made the steamdeck possible. RISC-V would be great. The Steamdeck adopting it would also push far more development and refinement in the Linux kernal for that architecture too.
wetbeardhairs@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Steam Deck@sopuli.xyz•New rumor suggests Valve's Steam Deck 2 is much further away than we thought6·14 days agoIt’s been 5 years now since Apple moved to ARM. I think that had a big enough impact on the market to start compiling ARM binaries. Those toolchains are much more common now and I think once Steam makes the plunge, you’ll see a ton of games target it directly. As shitty as Apple’s decisions are sometimes, you definitely see them force the markets to move like when they removed the headphone jack.

But that means they’ll have to make x86 emulator that doesn’t torch the battery. As it is, Proton was an enormous undertaking and it has resulted in a fantastic product. I believe they call pull it off again and we’ll get 20 hours of battery life with better performance.
But that’ll take a few years. I’m in no rush to spend another $600+.

wetbeardhairs@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Fuck AI@lemmy.world•Top AI models fail spectacularly when faced with slightly altered medical questions0·17 days agoFinally someone who gets it. They’re just best-next-word guessers that drank a literature smoothie and burp up something resembling a correct answer. They can only interpolate between word chunks that are pre-existing in the dataset. If the data set is grounded in things that have already been said, could it possibly interpolate an answer to a question that was never answered? No. But it could spill some kind of convincing yet nonsense answer that passes the CEO’s sniff test.

wetbeardhairs@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Modern Windows in a nutshellEnglish0·20 days agoMakes sense, as it’s supposed to access admin level functions to read some sensors and enable remote power control.
That makes no fucking sense. Kernal level driver accesses sensors. User mode driver reads that stuff and provides API access to whatever app.
You’ve got a shitty, shitty system.

Shouldn’t that apply to them being required to tell the fucking truth?
