It's probably not as good as it possibly could be, but in a automatic rice cooker the timing isn't manually set, it just cooks until all the water is absorbed / boiled off. So, cooking brown rice on the white rice setting would still take way longer and probably be fine.

    • Steam Frame gets kernel-level CD-ROM support a day after a community member asked for it in c/steamdeck@sopuli.xyz
    [–] 4 points 2 weeks ago

    That’s simply false.

    Lol, which part? The part where I said they would turn it on if it was in the mainline kernel?

    ideally, this package should gain mainline support in Arch before being evaluated for downstream inclusion in SteamOS 3.0.

    https://github.com/ValveSoftware/SteamOS/issues/745#issuecomment-1059296256

    Or the part where I said if it was stable? Or where I explicitly acknowledged the out of tree driver that's a PITA?

    The main detail here to answer is if the package has widespread testing and support over a long term, there's a higher chance that a mainline package will present minimal to no additional overhead to maintain by SteamOS devs compared to an AUR package.

    I guess thanks for doing the leg work on proving me right?

    Lol, no. Not at any company. If the board at any major company hears the words "CDROM kernel module" something as gone horrifically wrong.

    Don't get me wrong, it's super cool that valve can make changes as fast as they do. But there's no way that kind of decision makes to to the board.

    First print! in c/3dprinting@lemmy.world

    Honestly, it's been so long since I've had to adjust z-height, I don't have a guess for how far you need to go.

    The way I like to do it is to just start a print on something like a cube and play with the live z adjust until it looks nice and smooth. IMO, it's better to be just a little too high rather than a little too low.

    I joined a company to work on building out the software stack for their solar power systems for humanitarian aid in Africa. A few months after I started they pivoted to making solar powered mobile surveillance towers for the US border patrol.

    Mozilla’s new CEO is doubling down on an AI future for Firefox (www.theverge.com)
     

    Mozilla is in a tricky position. It contains both a nonprofit organization dedicated to making the internet a better place for everyone, and a for-profit arm dedicated to, you know, making money. In the best of times, these things feed each other: The company makes great products that advance its goals for the web, and the nonprofit gets to both advocate for a better web and show people what it looks like. But these are not the best of times. Mozilla has spent the last couple of years implementing layoffs and restructuring, attempting to explain how it can fight for privacy and openness when Google pays most of its bills, while trying to find its place in an increasingly frothy AI landscape.

    Fun times to be the new Mozilla CEO, right? But when I put all that to Anthony Enzor-DeMeo, the company’s just-announced chief executive, he swears he sees opportunity in all the upheaval. “I think what’s actually needed now is a technology company that people can trust,” Enzor-DeMeo says. “What I’ve seen with AI is an erosion of trust.”

    Mozilla is not going to train its own giant LLM anytime soon. But there’s still an AI Mode coming to Firefox next year, which Enzor-DeMeo says will offer users their choice of model and product, all in a browser they can understand and from a company they can trust. “We’re not incentivized to push one model or the other,” he says. “So we’re going to try to go to market with multiple models.”
