It requires more space than a "native" installation, but that's about it. Its impact on memory and CPU are very minimal, nowhere near VM levels because it's not full-on virtualization. Docker containers share the host's resources rather than creating virtual everything for themselves. Think multiple Linux environments sharing one kernel and drivers and libraries and whatnot. Except the runtime has strict control over which container can use what and how.

So Docker costs more in space. And space is cheap. It's a price well worth the features it provides and enables (networking, orchestration, etc).

The only reason I accept to not let these people pass is if it forces you do something unsafe, like throwing yourself over to the next lane and slamming on the brakes to match speed with the other cars. Otherwise just give them the lane and let them be a reckless ass somewhere else away from you. Safer that way. It's not your job to enforce traffic rules.

I didn't believe opinions could be wrong until I saw this

Pro tip: you can probably uninstall Gemini via ADB. Android won't let you uninstall it using your phone's UI, but since it's just another package you can probably use the old ADB tricks to wipe it from your phone. Use your favorite search engine to figure out how, it's not exactly a secret.

These are the tampons they stick into female bulls.

Nvidia drivers at least do something that are fairly complex and heavy, and they're necessary. Whereas this thing is just some comically overdeveloped and extremely annoying piece of bloatware from Logitech to remap a bunch of buttons.

In 2023, the on-time arrival percentage of ICE trains was 60something%. That's not exactly a number that screams reliability. I don't remember the exact number DB had to pay out for delay compensations that year but it was an embarrassing sum. Just today 2 separate people in my group chat were saying unsavory things about DB's mother because of 30+ minute delays on two separate ICE trains.

German trains being on time is a myth.

It is and it isn't. Again, the whole thing is super vague. Machine vision or pattern seeking algorithms do not try to imitate any human behavior, but they fall under AI.

Let me put it this way: Things that try to imitate human behavior or intelligence are AI, but not all AI is about trying to imitate human behavior or intelligence.

LLMs are one of the approximately one metric crap ton of different technologies that fall under the rather broad umbrella of the field of study that is called AI. The definition for what is and isn't AI can be pretty vague, but I would argue that LLMs are definitely AI because they exist with the express purpose of imitating human behavior.

I have a nothing phone. The glyphs were a neat gimmick the first few weeks I had the thing, but now I only use them as a softer flashlight. They just don't really add much value to the thing.

Still like the thing very much though, overall.

It's really not that hard. I never understood how people find it so difficult to understand.

Monitors are made to be viewed up close for the most part. And as such they don't exist in TV sizes. There are a few, but they are super expensive.

Projectors suck. A good projector that gets close to the image quality of a decent TV will cost quite a lot. And the way they work, they don't always work in every room.

Inb4 digital signage. They suck too. They're made to be bright screens to be viewed outdoors or in bright large rooms and to be switched on all day. They don't have image quality comparable to an actual TV because they aren't made for image quality.

So yeah, if you want a large screen with good image quality to watch stuff on from your sofa 3 meters away, a TV is very very often your only realistic option. And since nobody makes a decent dumb TV anymore, you're essentially stuck with smart TVs.

I once saw a girl very abruptly stop walking on a rather busy street, throw herself down on a nearby bench in a hurry, take out her stuff from her tote bag and just start knitting with an oddly peaceful expression on her face as if nothing happened. I was left wondering what the fuck I just witnessed. Happened in the span of like 4 seconds.

Yes she was barefoot.
