I went Galaxy S22 Ultra (ultrasonic) to Pixel 8 Pro (optical) to Pixel 9 XL (ultrasonic).

My impression was the performance improved over time with the Galaxy and Pixel 8. I find the Pixel 9 worst overall, but figure they’ll improve it in software.

No data to back that up.

It mostly struggles when my hand is wet. I miss the Pixel 4’s face unlock.

Try to use open source software. Harder for it to disappear.

I use it all the time for hot drinks and soups.

Sorry to break it to you, but that’s a bot.

At least it’s level on a table because of the bar

The OP didn’t mention Proxmox in their post. I’ve been speaking generally, not about any specific OS. For example, Nvidia’s enterprise offerings include a license to use their “GRID” vGPU tech (and the enabled feature flag in the driver).

Why? Product segmentation I suppose. Last I looked, the Virtio project’s efforts were still work-in-progress. The Arch wiki article corroborates that today. Inconsistent behavior across brands and product lines.

I’ve also wanted to do this for a while, but there were always a few too many barriers to actually spin up the project. Here’s just a brain dump of things I’ve seen recently.

vGPUs continue to be behind a license. But there is now vgpu_unlock.

L1T just showed off PCIe “fabric” from Liqid that can switch physical devices between machines.

Turning VMs on and off isn’t as slick as either of the above, but that is doable today. You’ll just have to build all the switching automation yourself. That could just be a shell script running QEMU/libvirt commands, at a minimum.

Thanks for asking. Not sure how I toggled that on…

You can put the game into its own time namespace.

I have KISS Launcher installed based on a recommendation, though I haven’t used it yet.

Thank you for calling that out. I’m well aware, but appreciate your cautioning.

I’ve seen hallucinations from LLMs at home and at work (where I’ve literally had them transcribe dates like this). They’re still absolutely worth it for their ability to handle unstructured data and the speed of iteration you get – whether they “understand” the task or not.

I know to check my (its) work when it matters, and I can add guard rails and selectively make parts of the process more robust later if need be.

I’d love a browser-embedded LLM that had access to the DOM.

“Highlight all passages that talk about yadda yadda. Remove all other content. Convert the dates to the ISO standard. Put them on a number line chart, labeled by blah.”

That’d be great UX.

I’d ask why they don’t make it optional (I’m not a Brave user) but it seems it was.

Another issue is that Strict mode is used by roughly 0.5% of Brave’s users, with the rest using the default setting, which is the Standard mode.

This low percentage actually makes these users more vulnerable to fingerprinting despite them using the more aggressive blocker, because they constitute a discernible subset of users standing out from the rest.

Given that, I’m inclined to agree with the decision to remove it. Pick your battles and live to fight another day.

Look for SM-S908U1 specifically. There are a few threads (like this one), but I think most US XDA users were just implicitly aware of how Samsung operated in the US. This was my first device from them and I was caught unawares.

I’m back on Pixel now.

Yeah, my S22 Ultra was carrier unlocked but the bootloader was not unlockable.

Not in the US.

I have wanted something like this but didn’t realize it was possible. Thanks for the heads up.

Link for others.

There’s some history there, if you didn’t know. Jellyfin is a fork of Emby.

They have said they want to keep a fairly long-term performance target for game devs optimizing for the device. Consoles do the same thing. Another part of that is improving margins over time.
