Ah, I see, known bug in chromium, may take time to filter down. https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/issues/11957

Brave has the same issue now as well, so it must be something that broke in chromium.

I wonder why Vivaldi-snapshot is suddenly crashing whenever I put it on my 4k monitor...

@union If they really had a no clowns protest, none of them could attend.

@fribbledom With enough extra layers we can call it ~/.wine/drive_c instead.

@developing_agent @brewsterkahle True, Is there a mirroring mechanism to do that, and a way to split it into pieces so that you could select a shard? I was under the impression from the search setup that it was all one big nosql blob backed by tapes and cache drives.

@developing_agent @brewsterkahle This is a very hard problem as well, I'm not sure what other organization would have the sheer storage capacity to replicate it, and simultaneously want to take the risk to their business that some of the data creates.

@brewsterkahle It's become very acutely apparent that the Internet Archive is an enormous single point of failure. Nearly none of the Archives collections are replicated externally by other orgnaizations. The eggs are all in one basket.

Should the Archive fail for any number of legal, policy, or financial reasons, most of the archived information ever collected will be erased.

@cliffwade Well, whenever something gets bought up, there's always the concern that the corporations will start to sneak stuff in. I started looking for alternatives at least when it was bought.

@cliffwade Once novalauncher kind of started getting corporate, I ended up switching to Unlauncher...

@fribbledom 27? I include ONE library and get 200 dependencies. ;)

@pro @sophie This is why most of my recent apps I've made are using toml for settings...

Json may be simpler, but it's a lot less human writable/readable for users. I get annoyed every time I have to edit a YAML file.

@kithrup @fribbledom In general, ZFS arrays probably shouldn't be run at over 80%, and deleting files won't save you any space until the snapshots that reference that data are rotated out... The usual way is to add a couple extra hard drives whenever you're getting close to full, since you can just... add another pair of drives whenever you want and it just extends all of the file systems in the pool out. Of course, those without a whole pile of spare drive bays...

http://www.poisonedminds.com/comics/Filler20250830.png This comic is definitely not accurate. All of the Starlink satellites are on a decaying orbit and have to be periodically boosted back up by the onboard thrusters. If any of them go obsolete, they'll just stop boosting them and they'll burn up in the atmosphere...

@pro Because of the inevitable "vibe code cleanup crew" that will have to get involved when everything goes terribly, horribly wrong. ASM that is poorly commented would be harder to unravel.

@zaitcev Yeah, you would pretty much need to attach a job guarantee and some sort of restrictions about keeping it for a certain amount of time if you wanted to keep them there. Though, the wisdom of creating enclaves of one group in a specific place never seemed like a good idea to me, like the Somali enclave of Minneapolis or that whole Transnistria thing.

Finally received my computer that I ordered in February. 64 gig Framework desktop. Works really well so far in Artix. Unlike my last system that I bought, this one worked out of the box with the stock kernel for the system, and I didn't even need to switch to the linux-amd kernel to get the latest stuff.

@zaitcev Weird that they'd choose an area that still had population growth though. The other 3 have had population declines.

@zaitcev (One thing I noticed while looking through Japan is that Chiba seemed to have a TON of golf courses.)
