In the however many years of crash detection with Pixels I've had a single false positive, and that was when I was biking over some very rough gravel and suddenly hit brakes. It was also very obvious and was easy to stop before it called the emergency services.

Your OS can load the microcode. Most Linux distros will load the latest microcode during boot. Some will even update the microcode when it gets the new microcode from the distro repositories. This facility exists specifically because motherboard vendors are terrible about providing updates.

Not really the same thing though, since Trump's thingy wasn't one of the things that popularised that type of site.

It would be hilarious to see Digg restart as a Lemmy instance.

Not to mention that I can't find any indication that Mint has a fixed version of ffmpeg at all.

It helps significantly that the EU already has a lot of the necessary expertise at every level.

That's not quite accurate. The community can still upload fixed packages to universe, just as the community runs universe in the first place.

Does mint ship with a fixed version of ffmpeg?

I'd much rather see RISC-V take over.

There's no reason why some sort of augmentation system couldn't improve the navigation situation with the big dig. Stick some low power beacons that provide GPS-like signal in the tunnel based on their predetermined location and we'll have GPS accounting for special relativity, general relativity and continental drift.

Correct. But that means 512 GB is not half a tebibyte.

512 GiB is half a tebibyte. 512 GB is just under 477 GiB.
