They're not port PRs.

Sounds as if you're using the older fcitx rather than fcitx5. (I think FreeBSD only has mozc with fcitx, and with fcitx5 you have to use anthy) To quote my own page https://srobb.net/jpninpt.html about FreeBSD and fcitx (as opposed to fcitx5

No idea what you are doing with vm and X11, but: In the server side, where you have the display: 1) you must run Xorg with the flag "-listen tcp" 2) You must type something like: xhost + On the client side, where start x clients, you must give...

It's backslash with me always. I mostly notice what happens. If things stop working suddenly, that's a typo in 1 of the last files. You could use the locate-db to scan all files with shell code and check the first line,

Please don't post the same questions in multiple threads. Threads merged.

As said in the other thread, does it work with a non-root user?

Is there any way to tell if CUPS can actually see my printer? The printer is connected by a USB cable.

You're supposed to copy/paste these to a prompt, the # of root's prompt kind of adds a layer of protection, as it's interpreted by the shell as a remark. It prevents accidentally copy/pasting something utterly destructive as root. Think it's...

Yes, I know they are prompts, but when you are copying and pasting them they are a pain. I just noticed a little icon that copies the code to your clipboard. Is that a recent addition?

This problem is update and upgrade related and this post should have been in another forum. In the update from FreeBSD 12 to 14 there were (new?) xorg.conf files in default search path in /usr/local/share/X11/xorg.conf when there were old...

Depends on the nature of the patches. Has any one actually picked them up? Can you post the PRs?

Indeed. In embedded, the freestanding C++ standard is quite common. Things like Zephyr let you drag in small subsets of STL as seen fit. The STL gets so much wrong in terms of safety that at work we tend to avoid it for lots of things. Actually...

I think I have found the problem. Yes, I had changed the RESOLV_CONF in poudriere.conf. I am running, local_unbound and had long ago copied the original resolv.conf to resolv.conf.without.unbound. For some reason I cannot remember, I preferred...

They are command prompts, the # indicates it's a root prompt. Like pkg install drm-kmod

I open the editor and remove the characters in the lines. Very slowly and calmly, as a meditation exercise. Of course, I could also use sed, but anyone can do that.

In fact most of the std is useless and prohibited in embedded. The C++ standard library is awful mess. C stdlib gets flak for unsafe functions and undefined behaviour but that's just because people don't understand what type of shit C++ std is...

Many posts provide examples of sample code for which I am very grateful, but one thing I often find myself doing is removing '#' from the start of the line when copying lines into some shell script. How do others deal with removing this...

Perhaps too complicated for today's AI, but it is also pattern matching, the phrase "code documentation system" is a pattern, otherwise it would not exist, and new means apply chaos to find something else than the "c++ code documentation systems"...

Then that nonsense starts to evolve and converges into meaning. I am curios what AI would come up with If I asked it to create a new c++ code documentation system.

Perhaps most of the time humans are processing patterns, from the very beginning of their life. These LLM have something called "temperature", if it is 0, it is deterministic, selects as next word the one with highest assigned probability, as...

Maybe I should start banning some folks. You either follow the directions of the mods/admins or you're going to find yourself on the receiving end of the ban hammer. Is that clear enough for you?

If AI ever truly reaches genuine creativity, the world will become a fundamentally different place. That moment wouldn’t just be another technological milestone it would be an evolutionary event. Creativity is effectively the threshold of...

Rapidly approaching the trashbin.

Indeed, and that speaks against your principle of writing documentation before coding. Better short comments in the code. And my idea was to leave the final documentation to AI using code and comments. But someone said it is bad troff code...

Because in American culture we don't get offended by others who are smarter, it's not a thing that happens here it would be seen as very strange, people would even think you have something wrong with you. So my natural assumption was that must be...

That was extremely rude! In the United States as a coworker you would have gotten in serious trouble for this comment.

I disagree in my culture nothing I said was out of line or even odd. It would be like me getting upset at you for expressing things you find odd in your culture.

Nope just pointing out cultural differences. In the United States saying "Fag" in public would likely get you killed. In fact, I felt uncomfortable writing it.

This whole thing has been on topic. It's about AI how did you expect it was going to go?

You are adding geography, a parameter that has no influence in the phenomenon. AI would have probably not done it. Perhaps the reason is that you expend too much time at work with top engineers and do not have contact with normal people.

Is there still some things on topic to come?

It is normal human behavior. Stupidity is normal. Psychologically it is projection. If these people feel stupid because they see some people being more intelligent than them, then they do not acknowledge the cause of this bad feeling in them, in...

Wait until you see the next one.

When you create a jail with poudriere, it copies the host's /etc/resolv.conf. Looks like you may have created those jails when your host's /etc/resolv.conf was a bit dodgy. You can set an alternative file it should copy to the jails (at creation)...
