How come the consultants haven’t moved to Canada if they are so experienced in immigration?

…the new company — named “/dev/agents” — will revisit the leaders’ “Android roots.”

The company is working on a cloud-based “next-gen operating system for AI agents” intended “for trusted agents to work with users across all of their devices,”

These guys had enough “edge” to give Carl Pei and his Nothing venture a run for their money.

It remains to be seen if this anything more than a fishing expedition to cash on some VC/investor money.

I posted the headline as-is. Updated it with the new headline.

But the main thing is this while story is some bizarre idea that a new device getting nearly 1% of global sales in its first quarter is doing badly?

There was a lot of hype for this and some sketchy work by Qualcomm around benchmarks (initially posted benchmarks that were based on a linux setup with 100% custom cooling, none of the released products came close to this result and it’s not really viable to run Linux on Snapdragon X devices even to this day).

• Ars Technica - Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite looks like the Windows world’s answer to Apple Silicon
• The Verge - Qualcomm’s next round of PC chips will fight Apple under the name Snapdragon X
• Tomshardware - Snapdragon X Elite Outperforms Intel, AMD, Apple CPUs (In Vendor Benchmarks)

The plot thickens. There is more drama in electronics hardware than a 90s-era Latin American soap opera.

Monitors aren’t being pumped full of this stuff and so won’t the premium televisions.

I have a feeling premium TVs won’t escape adware/spyware either. They can get their margin on the hardware and earn some more money on spyware; I don’t see what incentive they have to not do both. I hope I am wrong though.

I suspect in the near future it will be impossible to buy a TV without spyware/adware. The only option will be to not connect it to the internet and run your own Raspberry PI/SBC based solution.

Oligarchs are going to do oligarch things.

Doesn’t matter if it’s Macedonia, Botswana or the US.

Anyone remember their previous foray into tablets with the Nexus series? Or the one before with Android Honeycomb and the Motorola Xoom?

They just can’t get a consistent strategy going.

The OEM’s Android variant is defining element with respect to bloatware. Qualcomm as such does not add bloatware (at least I haven’t encountered any or heard about this).

It’s fair to call people who white-wash authoritarianism, genocide and roleplay as communists tankies.

This is not a matter of different opinions. They openly support the russian invasion, the atrocities of the russian occupation and reject Ukrainian identity and self-determination.

It’s the literal definition of the word.

I agree with you. IMO, it’s not that different.

The big difference is between the tankie LARPer instances (lemmygrad, hexbear, parts of lemmy.ml) and the rest of the major instances.

The issue being discussed does not fall under defamation.

You would be fine with AI-gen porn images of your teenage daughter being distributed around the internet?

I believe it’s notably worse. The focus seems to be more on industrial use cases with stationary batteries.

This is honestly pretty funny stuff.

Even if you are not doing anything particularly sketchy, you still want to make a habit of using multiple unrelated email addresses and always using alts with new unrelated names.

That’s some pretty bad opsec, using a single email address with the same nick.

These are big technical issues IMO, especially considering the large amount of tankies on Lemmy. It doesn’t help that many tankies have accounts on LW and other “normal” instances.

I told you would downplay russian atrocities and come up with some CIA word salad. You’ve never been to Ukraine, you don’t speak Ukrainian and you dare lecture me and tell me that russian invasion is not that bad?

Get fucked, you vile tankie! I hope the very atrocities you deny will catch up to you one day!
