Dark mode’s bright future: How dark mode will transform Wikipedia’s accessibility
  • Isn't #2 the only option?

    Websites specifying color for foreground (or background) and assuming browsers will use whatever color they're expecting for the other has always existed, and still exists

    If you're getting fancy and specifying colors, you can't cheap out and not specify all colors

    If the browser ignores all your colors at that point, then it's displaying as the user intended

    If you only specified some of the colors, it's a bug of the website

  • Survey shows most people wouldn't pay extra for AI-enhanced hardware | 84% of people said no
  • The even crazier part to me is some chip makers we were working with pulled out of guaranteed projects with reasonably decent revenue to chase AI instead

    We had to redesign our boards and they paid us the penalties in our contract for not delivering so they could put more of their fab time towards AI

  • How come Android doesn't have a built in PDF viewer?
  • It doesn't have to, but GrapheneOS is designed around security first, privacy second, and usability third

    If you install Fennec browser on it and open, e.g., https://www.learningcontainer.com/download/sample-pdf-file-for-testing/?wpdmdl=1566&refresh=6697dcd62a0141721228502

    The PDF will display inside Firefox

    The default web browser on GrapheneOS, Vanadium, doesn't parse PDF's (they're an incredibly insecure format) and passes them off to a sandboxed, hardened app specifically for that usecase

    This allows rejecting more permissions than doing it in the same process

  • Switzerland mandates all software developed for the government be open sourced
  • Separated over the PCIe bus with an IOMMU between it and system memory, as well as hardware switches to disable it if I'm not reachable

    I haven't found a way to remove it entirely. It's the only option I've found so far, but if you know of a better designed option, I'm certainly interested

  • The 2010 "phone wars"
  • That quote is about the replacement phone, not the Blackberry

    isn't thrilled with this new phone either

    Any secure phone will have the same restrictions - the manufacturer doesn't make much difference in this case

  • I completely missed Apple's WWDC Keynote. You can watch it here in case you have missed it too.
  • Starting with the iPhone 14, they put the last generation processor in the non-pro and the current generation processor in the pro

    The weird thing here is that the 15 non-pro (the new processor from the 14 gen - A16) has a faster NPU than the M1 processor that does support the AI feature

    The only possible technical reason is because they put such an anemic amount of RAM in their phones. Otherwise it’s entirely an artificial limitation

    Running top of the line models does require a lot of RAM, so it’s not an entirely ridiculous theory.

    The one I run on my desktop needs at least 12 gigs of VRAM

  • Silverblue vs uBlue

    I’m considering trying out an immutable distro after using Tumbleweed for the last 6 years.

    The two major options for me seem to be Fedora Kinoite or uBlue Aurora-dx

    My understanding is that universal-blue is a downstream of Fedora Atomic

    So, the points in favor of Kinoite is sticking closer to upstream, however it seems like I would need to layer quite a few packages. My understanding is that this is discouraged in an rpm-ostree setup, particularly due to update time and possible mismatches with RPMFusion

    uBlue Aurora-dx seems to include a lot of the additional support I’d need - ROCm, distrobox, virt-manager, libratbag, media codecs, etc. however I’m unclear how mature the project is and whether it will be updated in a timely manner long term

    I’m curious what the community thinks between the two as a viable option

    Keyboard missing in text entries

    I'm not sure if this is an iOS bug or an issue with wefwef, but any time I select a text entry, I don't get a keyboard on an iPhone 13 running iOS 16.5.1 and wefwef 0.10.4.

    Is this a known issue?

    Perpetual Night - Aconitum

    I tend to lean towards melodic death metal and symphonic metal, so hopefully this fits!
