Looks like another itch that needs scratching just showed up :/
Enabling the still-experimental #Nextcloud VFS on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed KDE Plasma is an instant core dump. Fresh installation or less fresh, doesn't matter.
(And KDE's webdav support is, well, let's just say that having my whole […]
One of my previous jobs was as Head of Partner Outreach at the Sony Developer Program. Yes, the department that handled the unlocking of bootloaders on phones, making sure the opn community had the right tools etc.
When I comment on idiots who post various shitty takes on companies claiming the […]
When a webcam refuses to allow HD resolutions to be selected the culprit could be a USB-hub earlier in the chain that has gone into slow-speed mode (otherwise fully working) and needs a full powercycle to renegotiate full-speed.
I know that now. It just took way too long to figure it out […]
There's a new open coding model suitable for local LLM usage - North Mini Code v1.0 from the Canadian company Cohere. A very quick test (needs an unmerged Llama.cpp PR as of now) show it to perform similarly to Qwen 3.6 35B A3B, maybe not surprising since this model too is an MoE which means […]

Or, as "found a way to call internal APIs" would be called in cybersec speak: an exploit.
Great article by tIn/Newline on how us democoders hunt down hints of strange behavior in old hardware just to be able to, possible, maybe, eke out some new "impossible to do" effects :D

the cyberpunk present is weird as fuck: the latest Shai Hulud malware wave contains an LLM prompt to create biological weapons and nuclear weapons, with the purpose to trip LLM safety refusals so that LLM-based code scanning wont see the malware […]
