If you rotate the hinge to angle X above the horizon, light coming in from an altitude angle of 2X (=zenith angle of 90deg-2X) will get reflected to into horizontal rays inside the tube.

So you don’t need a mount with adjustable altitude angle - the hinge accomplishes that.

I don’t understand your question, but are you talking about the sigmoid or arctan function?

WINE Is Not an Emulator and there is no Windows on RISC-V.

We could take this further and let developers specify exactly the dependencies they need! No more bloated runtimes! App A could specify libfoo>=1.23.45 while app B specify libfoo<1.24 and Flatpak could resolve the compatible version automatically!

Serious answer: If space saving is the goal, traditional packaging is the way to go. Allowing multiple runtimes is a slippery slope away from the core idea of Flatpak (simplest dependency management possible so developers don’t have to test many configurations).

(Not that there’s anything wrong with traditional packaging with more complicated dependency management - it’s just not Flatpak’s thing).

Never heard of this “Papers” PDF reader before and it’s not on Flathub either. Apparently it is a fork of Evince with lots of big changes planned. Exciting stuff! But does anyone know what’s going to happen to Evince?

Are you aware that Firefox Translate uses AI models[1] to translate text and it’s already included in current versions of Firefox?

[1]: not a completion/instruction LLM, but still very much a “language” model

Looks nice! Is this yours (OP)? If so, are you aware of Bavarder? It seems to have quite some features. (But it is unmaintained and broken right now so Alpaca is a welcome replacement.)

This is not “just” a basic diffusion model we usually see. It’s one of the ControlNet ones. They do wonders. Here are some more examples.

With Newtonian physics if you have two neutron stars orbiting each other they would just continue orbiting forever. With general relativity, the orbiting neutron stars shed energy by sending out gravitational waves. Losing energy they get closer and closer and then merge.

Flatpak apps cannot set their own permissions “on installation”. If flatpak tells you some weather app uses only the network permission then that is all the app is going to get.

For an app to be able to change its own permissions, it first needs permission to the flatpak overrides directory. Any app that does this gets an “Unsafe” designation in gnome-software.

Also about most apps requiring filesystem access to work: I have 41 flatpak apps on my system (Silverblue so everything is flatpak). Only 6 have access to my home or Documents directory. (11 apps requested full filesystem or homedir permission, but 5 of these work perfectly fine after I turned off their permissions in Flatseal).

Notably, “large attack surface” apps like Thunderbird or Firefox don’t have access to my Documents. File uploads and email attachments go through the file picker portals.
