Veloren ARM Linux with AMD Radeon RX550

LivingLinux @livinglinux.bsky.social · 2d

Testing the game Veloren on ARM. I had an issue with a disappearing mouse pointer on Wayland, so I switched to x11. Performance was also a lot better on x11. I hope they will improve compatibility with Wayland.

Apple acquires mobile ad company Quattro Wireless

Stop making stupid assumptions. I have a Samsung Galaxy Flip 6.
But you are deviating from the subject. You still believe the fairy tale that Apple isn't heavily monetizing its users? They have been doing it for years. This article is from 2010.

Apple Inc has acquired Quattro Wireless, as the iPhone maker looks to ramp up its presence in the mobile advertising arena.

KubeCon China - at 33-and-a-third, Linux is a long player. So, why does Linus Torvalds hate AI?

LivingLinux @livinglinux.bsky.social · 5d

And what are you going to do when the kernel maintainers use AI?
"we're not at the point where AI is yet helping us find bad patterns in the kernel source code. But there are people working on that, and I'm actually optimistic about it."

Linux prime mover Linus Torvalds travelled all the way to Hong Kong to explain his dislike of AI hype. We should be grateful for him.

Doesn't work for me. Unfortunately I don't see any documentation.
I do see dtb files, but I doubt it picks the correct one automatically.

Fedora allowing AI-assisted contributions has started a lot of discussions. Some distros have banned AI-assisted contributions for now, but what if Linus Torvalds starts using AI to help with kernel maintenance?

My first test with Rusticl, an open-source OpenCL driver.
With Mesa 25.0 it still has some issues on the ARM Rockchip RK3588 with the Mali-G610 GPU.
I'll test it again in the future once I have access to a newer version of mesa-opencl-icd.
