5·6 days agoIt would be interesting if this results in Linux being forked or perhaps even more interesting developers and users opposed to AI moving to GNU Hurd or any of the BSD variants.
Saudi Arabia is a big country. Most of Saudi Arabia is not at risk, despite it being within range. It is just that its oil exports go through three chokepoints, and all of its oil fields are concentrated in the east.
I still try out Haiku and ReactOS on actual hardware every time a new version is released. None of my computers are fully supported yet.
0·21 days agoThey are behind on lithography machines. LogicFolding seems like one way to overcome that, but for now HiSilicon is 18-24 months behind Apple and Qualcomm in performance. I will believe the promised gains when they are delivered, and I’m hopeful that a Chinese company figures out how to make EUVs. In a sense being only behind by 18-24 months is a win for Huawei and China, Biden’s goal was to keep Huawei at 2014 levels. In another Huawei phones and tablets still lose on performance in comparisons and they aren’t cheap. Xiaomi has also contracted TSMC to make its Xring chip, not SMIC. Of course cutting edge nodes are not necessary for all applications, certainly not for military applications which is the alleged reason behind the US ban. My laptop uses NVMe by YMTC and I wouldn’t tell the difference or care if it were 14nm or 28 nm or otherwise.
Chinese manufacturers such as Honor and Xiaomi have Chinese and Global versions of their handsets. My Honor Magic V5 runs Android based MagicOS and has access to Google Play and other Google services. Huawei phones sold here still come with AOSP? based EMUI, I’m not positive on whether it has Google Play and other Google services or not*, but you can install them using packages such as MicroG.
* Wikipedia says not:
On 14 July 2026, Huawei unveiled EMUI 16 alongside the Pura 90s Pro and Pura 90s Pro Max at a global launch event in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.[43][44][45] Based on Android 16, it launched in international markets without Google Mobile Services.[46][47][48]
You tell me. Look at images from Urumqi compared to Gaza.
Libs already hate Arabs and Muslims so I would be surprised if any had anything positive to say about Saudi Arabia
1·1 year agoI trust the OIC more than I trust any Western liberal on this. The same liberals who more often than not support Israel.
Show me where in East Turkmenistan it looks like anywhere in Palestine?
This worked better on my old computer than ReactOS ever did and I have been testing out ReactOS since 2007. If AI is what it takes to deliver a working FOSS Windows-like OS then I am not complaining.
