Pandoc will convert markdown to a PDF in portrait or landscape and there’s even “beamer” support, aka data projector or presentation support.

Why run Docker Desktop when it’s installable as a cli service?

What are you actually trying to achieve?

While they’re at it, could they please also penalize Android app developers who do this too?

So … not made from potato then?

Tah. I’ll have a look see.

Not sure how, or if, I’d want to install an Arch package under Debian, but it’s my understanding that the package I’ve raised a bug for under Debian implements, or is supposed to at least, the functionality you’re describing.

What I haven’t found is a recipe that documents exactly how it’s supposed to work (not to mention, in a Debian way).

I’d love to discover something that doesn’t start with instructions to remove all pipewire packages and install from source, since that completely defeats the purpose of running Debian Stable as the host.

In my adventures I did look at this, but it appears to require that you install support for this inside the guest, which is possible for modern guests, but not for ancient ones like say Debian Wheezy or Win98se.

Nobody gets fired for buying IBM … apparently.

CVE: Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures

So, why is this being disclosed here and not a CVE reported to Apple?

While contemplating that, my Mac has been up for longer than that and it’s working fine.

The Mac I had before that was up for years, also fine.

So … what is this really about?

They are deterministic but complex to determine.

The Assumed Intelligence systems I’m familiar with have a “random” element, but it’s unclear where that source of randomness comes from. Is it using a computational random source, or something like the lava lamp wall at Cloudflare, which is significantly more random, potentially actually random.

Unfortunately the complete article is not available, which is yet another issue exacerbated by the Assumed Intelligence cohort.

While I understand your point, deterministic with a billion variables is beyond human ability to process, let alone the multi-billion parameter models in general circulation today.

At what point does deterministic descend into random?

Assumed Intelligence is a solution for a bunch of multivariate problems, like say “the travelling salesman”, but it’s not intelligence nor in my opinion is it effectively “deterministic”.

Given that you’re having issues with the DNS, I’d look at this.

Specifically, are you using the ISP DNS as an upstream lookup, or have you configured another DNS as the upstream?

Is the ISP DNS locking you out because you’re hammering it?

Does the ISP block traffic on Port 53?

When you’re having issues, can you look up addresses using a different DNS?

How is your DNS configured / implemented?

Are you stating fact based on research and analysis, or are you venturing an opinion?

So, like a baby Yahoo! directory?

I wonder just how long it will stay relevant and how they determine if the content comes from a human. So far I’ve been accused of being a bot several times, clearly reliably detecting humans is beyond the capability of … humans.

Having had a mono radio cassette player in my bedroom in 1976, running off D-cells, that was not my experience.

The biggest drain was the volume, not the cassette player. You noticed it getting slower and slower, but the drain came from playing it loud.

My Sony Walkman a few years later ran forever on its batteries.

As it happens, actually I was buying batteries in the 1970’s. They were massive and lasted plenty long enough to play audio cassettes for several days.

Edit: I’d also point out that three decades is 1996, not 1976, that’s five decades.

The price of the batteries was never really the issue, it was their weight versus their capacity with some consideration towards size and robustness.

As far as I can tell, today the biggest hurdle is charging.
