The first question I had when watching this was how this robot doesn’t fall over with just these two tiny wheels. The center of mass is much higher than on a Segway, for example, isn’t it?

Why not run both and use the result retrieved the fastest.

New comment by hybridtupel in "Microsoft confirms Windows 11 is about to change"

hybridtupel — Thu, 13 Nov 2025 18:45:22 +0000

I guess now is the best time to switch to Linux. MacOS 26 being super sluggish and looking like a soap bubble game for children. Windows becoming a SkyNet OS. Meanwhile Steam just announced their new hardware on SteamOS, emphasizing that users still own their hardware and can install whatever they want.

This is about Low-rank adaptation. Not to be confused with LoRa the long range proprietary radio communication technique, which hopefully doesn't learn at all.

It would be hilarious to include the song instead of the license text in a codebase

New comment by hybridtupel in "The beauty of finished software"

hybridtupel — Tue, 31 Oct 2023 15:21:31 +0000

Does finished mean it doesn't get updates at all or just no new features? Because most software today has some kind of communication / network connection and therefore could have security vulnerabilities. If these are not patched then I'd rather not use this finished software.

New comment by hybridtupel in "Kanboard: free and open source Kanban project management software"

hybridtupel — Wed, 24 May 2023 15:12:12 +0000

Should be "docker run -p 8080:80 kanboard/kanboard" But then not sure what username / password to use. The docs definitely could be structured better.

hybridtupel — Thu, 27 Apr 2023 16:04:28 +0000

Though there is herunterladen as a verb, there is no noun for download(s). “Herunterlad(s)” doesn’t quite cut it. So because the term Download is already used as a noun why noy use downloaden as the verb.

New comment by hybridtupel in "Dropbox telemetry can't be disabled"

I can imagine they “fixed” it by just sending the telemetry now to the TLD so nobody complains any longer.

New comment by hybridtupel in "Python malware starting to employ anti-debug techniques"

hybridtupel — Fri, 23 Dec 2022 13:46:32 +0000

> Malware that is more stealth-conscious would just stop running without any indication, instead of interacting with external processes.

I always wondered if we could just use this against the malware. E.g. just run a useless process which is named/looks like a debugger and the malware stops itself. Of course that's nothing to be relied on on its own but maybe as an additional layer of defense?

Have you checked out Elixir?

- Can be deployed to Heroku or Fly.io without much effort

- Well designed tools like mix

- There is a thriving community

- "basic open source libraries" highly depends on the context, but yes there are not as many as for more popular languages (yet)
