I think you’re asking the wrong question here. You should be asking “Is my tech stack doing what I need and working for me?”.
If yes, then just keep doing what you’re doing.
If not, then figure out what’s wrong, and take steps to fix it.
Trying to “compete” - as it sounds like you may be trying to do - IS futile. But what are you competing over? Why would you feel the need to compete with the things you hate? That’s not where your battle is, it sounds like.
Sorry, ma dude. This is 100% incorrect. Been doing this a long time, and have managed massive numbers of desktop sessions for enterprise end users.
Lookup dconf. It’s the tool that manages the underlying configuration engine for Gnome specifically.
Outside of the granularity there, you could also just lock everything to a group and exclude logged in users from that group. That’s a very simplistic way of explaining it, but achieves the exact same thing. You build a base image with only the apps the user needs, set execution to an inclusive group that user belongs to, and everything else to some other groups, and there you go. Dead simple.
Of course that’s not how you’d do it for an org with thousands of users, but you get the point.
Uhhhh yeah there is? You can customize any user profile and centrally control it just as you can on Windows. You can even PXE boot all workstations with new images whenever you want instead of relying on individual machines to issue updates, something that Windows isn’t capable of.
Not sure where you got this idea, but you’re misinformed.
That’s not really the point though. I’m not even talking about end users. Government agencies, corporate backend services, customer service agencies and more are all abandoning Windows for Linux partially because Win11 is a horrible product, but also because the requirements just keep growing which is stupid.
Microsoft’s response to this is the above, which they were STAUNCHLY opposed to previously because they need to try and force AI down users throats to justify the money they have pissed away on it. They’re shoehorning Copilot bullshit into every product line they have now, and it’s WILDLY unpopular and unnecessary. If this is the best they can do to address it, they’ll continue to hemorrhage users.
When more state agencies in the US start switching, they’ll release some “Windows Lite” bullshit, but it will too late because the commitments needed for these organizations to bother switching is massive. They’ll be losing licenses for an entire generation of Windows at the very least.
Looks like you’re hosting a mostly static frontend there. Could be hosting that for free in a number of places, and then you’d have no problem.
“Allow”
Fuck you, Microsoft. You and Apple have lost millions of users to Linux, and I’m here for it.
Unless they specify Solar, Wind, or Hydrogen, it’s just going to be these assholes building their own coal generators FFS.
Big NOPE
GEEEEEE, what a coincidence, eh? Almost like these companies may be coordinating some sort of market shift for some reason.
What do you call that when a bunch of companies responsible for large swathes of market share of a particular good or service use the guise of unnatural market pressure to create conditions unnaturally beneficial to themselves and not consumers?

It all is if you’re getting both. You’re sharing IPs with many different devices at the same time. That’s how it works.
Read up on it.
25% of what?
1/4 of 100% of what?
I’ve seen zero RISC devices in the wild, and the phrasing here wants me to think I should have by now.

I think you’re missing the point or not understanding.
What you’re talking about is just running a model on consumer hardware with a GUI. We’ve been running models for a decade like that. Llama is just a simplified framework for end users using LLMs.
The article is essentially describing a map reduce system over a number of machines for model workloads, meaning it’s batching the token work, distributing it up amongst a cluster, then combining the results into a coherent response.
They aren’t talking about just running models as you’re describing.

Honestly, I know a lot of people that do, but delivery address is less of a problem than other personal information.
I always make fake derivative versions of my names for anywhere I but from so I can tell who is selling my information and not buy from them anymore. The address matters less. I’m not avoiding the government and “hiding out” fo fuck’s sake, I’m just avoiding having my data leaked like this. Any number of fake names that like up on the same address also dilutes these data sets the shady dealers try and ship around. The more names at any single address reduce the confidence of its accuracy, and therefore price.
Cool. So I can get one for my massive Clit as well then? I want everyone to pay respect and marvel at it.
Ah, okay. So this is either your device, or the entertainment system getting confused, most likely.
Some clarifications:
So if you want the audio to work AND you want to connect to the hotspot, you’d use either wired USB or BT for the audio portion, and then the Hotspot just gives your phone data.
