The current exploit was found with AI and released (after it was found and kept secret by the original dev in the hopes of keeping GTA VI runnable) but the other infrastructure is still basically the same as it ever was. Post jailbreak, running the Linux ELF loader you’re booting a pretty standard Linux kernel and distro.

If you’re interested in PS5 Linux, I wouldn’t let the drama over the exploit get in your way.

That said, until it can reboot without involving another Linux machine to deliver the payload, it’s a fun trick but you might as well just buy the SoC for $250, a Steam Machine, or build a PC to have a better supported Linux flow.

There is an element of this, because the people using it for policy or writing headlines always disregard a ton of caveats and qualifications in any field (including actual hard science like physics), but most economics texts I’ve read hide a ton of complexity behind “rationality” that doesn’t exist and are implicitly describing the system that we have (capitalism) without acknowledging that we could do it any other way - which frees them from any ethical conflict with capital/exploitation and lets them pretend they are describing a natural system.

The truth is we are irrational both as individuals and as groups with outside influences, and the economy can function in whatever way we want it to function. In that lens economics quickly turns into psychology, ethics and philosophy. Which, to be clear, would be a useful thing to study in any economic system (all of which have incentives and pitfalls), but it is not nearly as objective or concrete as it currently pretends as it fiddles with interest rates while billionaires run roughshod over our entire society.

Economics is soft science pretending like it is describing fundamental laws of the universe.

Economists don’t know shit, they are describing how the economy could work in certain conditions in a vacuum and sometimes politicians/business people buy into the fantasy to backup doing whatever they wanted to do in the first place.

Oh shit, it’s religion again.

No more algorithms! Quicksort? Banned. Sieve of Eratosthenes? Banned. Djikstra’s? Super banned!

If you even mention a red black tree, you’re the one that’s gonna be red and black, son.

I work close to firmware and this is how we all say it, and we say it often. When speaking to execs it’s always said by pronouncing each letter. You can watch us code shift (lingually) in meetings depending on who is asking the question.

TIL Ivan Dixon, who I know mostly as Sgt. Kinchloe on Hogan’s Heroes, was radical as fuck. I have to check this movie out.

Haha, me too. I watch a streamer, Vulrhund, fight ten thousand zombies and end up in a powered bachelor pad that he built, plastered, painted and furnished over the course of an in game year…

Meanwhile I have like 500 hours and my last death was eating lethal mushrooms I foraged on day three. My best run ever was maybe 2.5 months. I’m not sure I’ve ever actually lived long enough to harvest any crops I planted.

Peter Gibbons in Office Space.

Turns out I liked the game only because of what I thought the game could be instead of what it actually was.

I never played Star Citizen, but this is kinda where I ended up with No Man’s Sky. I played it at launch and again earlier this year and there’s definitely some fun to be had but nothing fits together right, or feels fully realized. NMS lost a coherent vision of the game at some point and eventually it just made me itch to play better games that were more focused.

Fuck a movie, we need a Xena sequel series. Get Lucy Lawless and Renee O’Connor back to pass the torch to a new generation of ass kicking women.

Ideally, both of them could be regulars as well, I just don’t think they’d be down to do the fights anymore.

Totally. I had a few runs on it while it was in the unstable branch and the new mechanics are great, but firing it up after the stable release and seeing all the love put into older map locales really made it feel like a brand new game.

My favorite of all time is Psyduck because I identify with him and frequently have to control myself from freaking out when minor things go wrong.

I also like Squirtle and Turtwig lines.

Pokopia is easily my favorite game in the series too, just because it lets you work together instead of battling, and it made me appreciate some others like Ditto or Piplup.

It’s basically the best virtualization platform. It can do full system emulation across a number of platforms, or hardware assisted virtualization (using KVM). It’s incredibly useful for debug as well as doing real work.

Compete with AMD as well. They don’t license the designs directly, but the reason they’ve dominated the last couple generations of consoles is they’re willing to do custom work where Intel traditionally was more “take it or leave it”

Uh, what? The Ayn Rand garbage philosophy? I’ve never heard that and don’t see how that jibes with a free, crowd sourced encyclopedia…

I’ve never seen a repo so reticent to tell you what it is.

My guess is it’s the journal software running the .org but everything also seems to be down half the time.

I like this comic but Beetle Moses needs to actually look at a tortoise, haha.

Their arms and legs don’t pop out of holes in their shells, their shells are more like wraps around their torsos (it’s a strapless dress, not a onesie). Also those scutes (panels of the shell) are fucked.

… Why yes, I’m fun at parties, why do you ask?

It does seem like a parody. Isn’t the backstory of Ebenezer Scrooge throwing his life and relationships away for profit? I can see some opportunities for showing how stupid that is, but without the epiphany moment of A Christmas Carol, will he just end the story as a bitter old man?

Or is this just a retelling of the whole story at which point it’s yet another remake that doesn’t need to be made…

I’m not quite sure what the advantage of doing it that way is

If I had to guess, it just kept the programmers from being super lazy about it. If the individual enemy AI doesn’t have exact coordinates of the player, it actually has to move around, search a space, potentially manipulate the environment, and possibly fail to find the player, versus doing what is effectively an idle animation while waiting for the player to step out of cover.

So much defeatism! You can still get a house like that for cheap. Just cut out the avocado toast, ask Mom for a six figure loan, then find a gem property in the local airport flight path, next to a slaughterhouse, an AI data center, built on reclaimed landfill, and across the state highway from a pet sematary. You can get it for under a million easy!

That’s what I did, and I’m living the dream. My reanimated dog gets sick every time he drinks from the oily puddles of blood and liquid fat that bubble from the ground constantly, but I did it, I own a home!
