New people don't realize that Linux is really a soap opera with a small software project attached.

Let's say such a change happens and at that time there's a bit of time pressure and the capacity on the rust maintainers is thing for whatever reasons. Will they still happily swallow that change or will they start to discuss if it's really necessary to do that change? And suddenly, the C-maintainer has a political discussion on top of the technical issue they wanted to solve.

This situation could occur even if the code using the API was written in C.

If an API change breaks other downstream kernel code, and that code can't be fixed in time then they have a conversation about pushing the changes to the next build.

In the end, Linus has already chosen to accept the extra development overhead in using Rust. I think this situation was more about a maintainer, who happens to disagree with the Rust inclusion, using their position to create unnecessary friction for other maintainers.

No, you can't find any copyrighted text inside the model's weights.

In machine learning, that task is referred to as classification

I had all of these problems with Jellyfin and then I discovered Netflix (www.netflix.com/totallynotareferral)

Rich parents exert a huge amount of control over their children via financial manipulation.

There's been essentially no reporting on him, so where are you getting this "fascist" accusation from?

The walls get hot, you absorb the heat from the walls with a fluid. You use the fluid to heat water, you use the steam to drive a turbine, you use the turbine to turn a permanent magnet inside of a coil of wire. In addition, you can capture neutrons using a liquid metal (lithium) which heats the lithium, which heats the walls, which heats the water, which makes steam, which drives a turbine, which generates electricity.

If you poured water onto them they wouldn't explode. 100 million degrees Celsius doesn't mean much when the mass is so low compared to the mass of the water.

Until you see companies selling liquid nitrogen generators, you're not going to have to worry about anyone pushing quantum chips on the average consumer.

I use it in this configuration.

It works well except, if you lose connection temporarily the cloudflared stops responding until some, long (60s or so) timeout period.

A minor annoyance, I usually just manuirestart the service... but I cannot find the setting that is causing this.

It prints in white text on a black background

sometimes nvidia drivers are in a state that breaks display reinit on wake from sleep

That happens so often that I've just bound a hotkey in Hyprland to poke my monitors config (toggling VRR off and on again) in order to force a mode change and wake up the display.
