Won’t this thing actually help the AI models in the long run? The biggest issue I’ve heard is the possibility of AI generated images getting into the training dataset, but “poisoned” artworks are basically guaranteed to be of human origin.

“What’s a Computer?”

My current Xiaomi phone has an IR blaster, but what I miss is having an IR receiver as well, trying 100 random remotes to find which one works with your obscure TV/AC is such a pain when you used to be able to just clone one instead.

For anyone wanting to learn more there’s a bigclive video covering the extraction process.

ashens is still making that quality brown sofa content 17 years later.

I hope that the switch version would be easier to bypass as there’s no way they’re going to force you to connect to the internet to verify anything like the do on the PC.

FWIF I’ve tried TickTick and Todoist with paid plans, Google Tasks, Microsoft Todo and probably a few other free apps, and personally have settled on HedgeDoc for lists and Telegram for reminders. Nothing beats their simplicity and reliability.

To be fair, most first world countries seem to have settled on 18 for all of this. I think the wrong assumption is that the age limits are related to each-other, while they’ve been brought into law at different points in history and there hasn’t been a need to change them. There are also the environmental factors, such as the driving age in the USA probably being lower as a consequence of a car-centric culture.

Well it used to be good, even non techy users knew that IE sucked and when their “computer-whizkid” nephew recommended Chrome it was genuinely faster and leaner than competition. And I’ve almost forgot the fact that they’ve advertised chrome (maybe they still do) on the main Google page that gets like billions of pageviews.

FWIW they at least have their own indexer instead of relying on bing/yandex (looking at you ddg). Although I guess selling content you’ve crawled as your own is still a pretty shady thing to do.

task.org seems to be an oldschool under-construction page, do you mean tasks.org? Also is there a reason you specifically recommend OpenOffice instead of LibreOffice or Collabora Office?

There’s a project I’m using that has a lead dev from Russia, so for him that’s the only way to receive money. Crypto has been overwhelmingly overtaken by grifters, but there are still uses that just made easier by a decentralized currency.

Surely a browser with a market share 2% that of Chrome’s (not total!) doing this will change anything. Surely when Google implements this and your bank and government websites start requiring your browser be “secure” users aren’t going to just switch back to chrome where “everything just works”.

From a psychological view, the best we can do is provide the information and hope that they come to the right conclusion themselves. You’re almost never going to convince a person by telling them that they’re wrong, and surely not by talking how their children are going to suffer and their house is going to get flooded.

Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but I’m talking from experience watching European tv news, especially during the election cycle.

Aren’t most x86 executables being built now still favoring compatibility to performance? I think I’ve read that just targeting the current gen CPUs while compiling can bring up to 20% improvements.

There’s also the fact that mainstream news in most countries consist of 50% local and 50% US news.

Is there any information on the performance impact of the microcode fix or is it too early for that?

Commercial use as in hosting it for somebody else, self-hosting it for your org is still ok
