I don’t. I run out of memory.

I thought you were thinking an AI based code generator klike copilot) does it, when you said the IDE does it.

I disagree that users won’t do stuff on their own. They will, but they will allocate very little time to it, on average, especially when compared to a tech savy person. And that’s just because their computer is a tool.And if they cannot make their tool work for what they want to do, they’ll find another way. Or deem it impossible.

also don’t forget that many don’t even have the time and energy

and start off from a fundamentally wrong premise: that people are willing (let alone wanting) to manage their own operating systems.

people shouldn’t need to manage their own operating systems, to begin with

not the IDE, its the compiler. this is also not some AI shit, in many cases (not all) the compiler can actually figure out how to do this, because it’s not hard, it would just be a lot of boilerplate if written manually.

in my understanding OP was not comparing it to simple wireguard

to simple wireguard? there are wireguard based mesh network solutions out there

the AI thing must be something relatively new. shows they are all for using buzz tech

oh. is this optional? on a laptop it’s a good idea, but on my desktop I wouldn’t want it

when locking the screen, or when logging out?

if it’s the former, how will running programs not crash?

they couldn’t finish the message. maybe they were hit by the bus that was late

in my understanding that won’t handle roaming between APs as good as a mesh setup. OpenWRT has a special wifi setup for that

the program uploads the information to somewhere, right? just like the telemetry functions in windows. adding the domain they use to popular blocklists would help those who use pihole or something similar to that.

I love how the preview text for youtube videos is entirely fucking useless

we seriously need to get the reporting domain added to popular blocklists

hostname? MAC address? serial numbers? does "partitionx data also include names and GUIDs?

why would they need these? what is wrong with them??

They call it a polyfill because it polyfills your disk

nah, but storage is cheap bro, you really should just buy another hard drive! don’t even think about going below 4 TB, of course!

atomic has had a meaning for a very long time in IT, don’t pretend that it’s something made up bullshit. with this thinking we could just throw out the word mutable/immutable too, what is it my computer is radioactive and I’ll get cancer from it? of course not, because it has a different meaning with computers, and people in the know (not even just professionals because I’m not one) know it.

atomic means that if multiple things would change, they will either change at once, or if the task failed none of it will change.
sometimes these are called transactions, suse calls it transactional updates. but is that any better? now the complaint will be that suse must have transacted away all the money from your bank account!

and distros are obviously not immutable, that’s just plainly misleading. we update them, someone does that daily. updating requires it to be mutable, to be modifiable.

what’s the benefit of packaging drivers that way? surely not permission separation
