So weak, libreboot or gtfo
There were devices back in the 1990s that did exactly that (no disclaimers though)

politics @lemmy.world•Did the Trump administration threaten the pope? Avignon-gate, the scandal blowing up MAGA-Catholic relations, explained.
27·1 month agoYeah, they threatened to kill the pope if he didn’t actively support Trump…

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How do you deal with the reality of loneliness?
02·2 months agoEveryone eventually dies, including us but probability is still a thing and if you are so desperately worried about being alone; join a poly relationship. The odds of all of them dying at the same time is very low and you can add more people over time who you love and who loves you too.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How serious will the problems be in the future if people rely too much on AI or can't work and live without them at all?
02·2 months agoWhat water use does your phone have? Because an Orange PI has none. You can run it off a $5 solar panel and thus the energy problem is not there.
Stop conflating society destroying Capitalism with community built and maintained software. They may have functional similarities but the negative properties of Oracle Databases are orders of magnitude worse and different than FSF supported Databases such as PostgreSQL.

14·2 months agoDepends on who controls the AI. If you are running it locally.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•AFFORDABLE selfhosted nocode relational databases? (à la Baserow/NocoDB, etc.)English
4·2 months agoThere is no such thing as no code, just code that someone else wrote. Not that such code isn’t trivial to get from a basic LLM that you can run locally for pennies a year.
https://blog.mlc.ai/2024/04/20/GPU-Accelerated-LLM-on-Orange-Pi
Just setup a standard PostgreSQL database and then work with the LLM to write some C# code to connect to it and create, update and delete data per your own system needs. Hire a part time programmer if you need more help. They usually can get you where you want to be cheaply if they are FSF developers and you don’t restrict them from using the code they write for you.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is no one held accountable if a driverless EV ran over a pedestrian?
01·2 months agoWe are currently charging women for murder because they have had ectopic pregnancies removed. So no, that is not how the laws about murder are currently being applied in the USA.
And yes, I agree that a Turing complete CPU could be just a few dozen transistors. (Or just one depending on how you count ROM)

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is no one held accountable if a driverless EV ran over a pedestrian?
0·2 months agoIt is just a simple OODA loop (observe, orient, decide, act loop) that needs to have the decision made for when constraints conflict. Which by definition must decide who dies. The manufacturers have been explicitly clear about that point so that they can doge liability.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is no one held accountable if a driverless EV ran over a pedestrian?
05·2 months agoYes, they have to explicitly tell it in software to kill others (such as pedestrians) to save the lives of the passengers or prevent the theft of the vehicle itself.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is no one held accountable if a driverless EV ran over a pedestrian?
04·2 months agoMurder is the unlawful killing of a human being with malice aforethought.
https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/1111
It is no different than firing a bullet from a gun into an area where people are walking. Claiming software doesn’t change that fact

2·2 months agoIt worked well with just 64MB of RAM

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is no one held accountable if a driverless EV ran over a pedestrian?
11·2 months agoThe vehicle owner is criminally liable for murder in that case.
I support the corporate death penalty.

Technology@lemmy.world•Microsoft once tried to cut Windows 11 RAM usage, install size by 20%, now it’s trying again in 2026English
9·2 months agoThey already know that the solution exists in their Windows for Legacy PCs but they don’t care about it and will waste their time and money going in a loop.
That is why they needed outside help to get Windows for Legacy PCs to hit their memory target

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What to study to be able to host a site?English
5·2 months agoLook at nginx or Apache if you want to host multiple websites on a single machine (that is how they have done it since the 1990s) containers make things easier if dealing with multiple complex sites but are not absolutely required.
