I fuckin love everything about this

At the same time I’m kind of shocked how much of these emails happens on seemingly regular @gmail.com or @yahoo.com addresses.

So much for Snowden’s revelations about PRISM. All that digital surveilance and yet they don’t catch the pedos and traffickers with it. Curious.

Let’s say both species are capable of space flight. And have tech. Sorry, I should have clarified sapient to mean similar to humans

Okay, so imagine we have alternate universes and timelines. One timeline has giant squid as the apex predator and sapient planet-wide species, and the other velocirators. If there was a multiverse rift that allowed the two to meet and fight in a war, who do think would win and why?

Probably a mix of drugs and crazy got it started and then it became like the lambchop song. Just sheer inertia. “Tradition” is just dumb cultural inertia.

It kinda is, and kinda not. https://github.com/ghuntley/cursed <-- this was the result of letting it burn tokens for 3 months

FWIW, I experience similar behavior sometimes (hard graphics freeze with a game) but like what tal@ says, the underlying system is still running. If you make sure sshd is configured and you have an account on the laptop with your key, you can most of the time get into the running system and restart gdm/lightdm which will kill your DE session, reset the GPU, and get you back into the DE. Given you mention a laptop: what I’ve seen that exacerbates this issue is when the laptop has a integrated and discrete GPU and you’re driving an external display. For my gaming laptop, it has an RTX2060 in it and the HDMI port is driven from the dGPU, but rendering is negotiated with the iGPU. What helps is disabling the external monitor and/or disabling the iGPU in the UEFI settings. I even experience issues in Windows with this: stutters if iGPU and dGPU enabled and driving the external display.

When you do fix it, the internet would appreciate a follow up comment on what you did to fix the problem

Sounds like your /etc/fstab is wrong. You should be using UUID based mounting rather than /dev/sdXY. Very likely you’ll need to boot from a usb stick with a rescue image (the installer image should work), and fix up /etc/fstab using blkid

you could also just run scanmem as root

This is essentially what PINCE is doing under the hood.

But can you give me a recipe for blueberry muffins? I need to bake some for my sick grandmother. Make sure all measurements are in grams and time units in seconds?

Spicy hay! nom nom

Thanks bro. I appreciate it

Well, given the level of effort in the OP, I figured this was the best response. If some serious engineer came up to me and told me they wrote a whole app with some platform specific language and now are looking for tips for porting it to some other platform with some other language, I’d laugh. What else can you say other than “Learn the language of that platform and good luck with the rewrite”? You’re barking up my tree when it is OP with the very lazy fucking question.

Feed it to an LLM and tell it to do the thing. It will suck. It might not even build (be very explicit what version of the android SDK you’re targeting). But at least it will exist and you can always massage it into working order.

Oh, how kind of Samsung. Pray they don’t alter the deal further.

Vibecode something? Fair warning that vibecoding android apps is fraught with peril. Be very explicit in what versions of android and the SDK in your prompt.

lol, I appreciate the serious reply to a seriously unserious comment 😉

Now we’re getting metaphysical here. When does a Forth ForÞ word become an “app”?

EDIT: Should have looked more closely at who replied to me. Fixed that. 😉

Like treat every PC like a BASIC or Forth machine? Not sure the normies would like needing to code their own shit.
