Hah I actually remembered this too, and people were still hyping Elon Musk at the time as well.

TBF the researchers knew what they had could be scaled into something gamebreaking which is how we got ChatGPT-3, but OpenAI made it sound like they already had it nailed down several years before it actually blew up. I think their unreleased examples they gave were a newspaper and short story written by AI which they said was indistinguishable from human material.

Honestly they’d probably throw you on a list for not using the internet lol.

Man I can’t wait to upgrade my device/GPU with AV1 hardware support

AI slop bubble fart reverb sfx

I think Denuvo technically does a little bit of this.

I forgot the exact details, but one of the keys that’s used to unscramble the bytecode has to be downloaded from their registry server on first launch.

But after that, it’s not required.

Bans and heavy moderation of content.

I’m glad some of the reddit copy communities here like DankMemes died quickly because it was being run by the same loser mods from reddit.

So far I’ve only been banned from I think maybe 2 communities ever. The only one I remember is one of the NCD communities because the lead mod was a dumb dumb.

I don’t really care about complaints of specific instance users because unpopular opinions and comments deserve to be seen, otherwise you create an echo chamber.

So long as there is no brigading, it is much healthier to see everyone’s input.

Also I hope the r/Chodi crowd never finds lemmy lol.

They don’t have any lunar module in their package. Best bet would be to just burn back into LEO and dock with a competently designed spacecraft to rescue the crew.

Except NASA has a sore history of being in this exact scenario and they opted to go with “screw it” which led to the second shuttle disaster.

Fedora

OpenSUSE if you want something non American and not directly related to RedHat

You couldn’t pay me to attempt space travel in a Lockheed tincan.

Would not be surprised at all if NASA delays this to next year.

A pretty hefty amount of popular mobile games were actually rips of flash games with microtransaction added lol.

I have spent a great deal of time analyzing your feedback

Remember when a couple of critical CVEs went unnoticed and unpatched after disclosure because no one from Microsoft actually reads the insider hub lol.

I used to rule the world [Unregistered HyperCam 2]

The fact that CachyOS more or less successfully replaced Manjaro’s purpose I guess is evidence of Manjaro’s issues.

I forgot but I think Bazzite had similar complaints (due to its use of silverblue) in which case it was just more straightforward to use Fedora or OpenSUSE if you don’t want to work with the read only root system.

Downstream distros need to bring additional value to the table to be worth using, otherwise there’s really no need if you can make a package group that accomplishes the same thing in one go.

(I don’t need strong censorship resistance; it just has to work in offices and hotel WiFis.

Wireguard on 443 or OpenVPN + Stunnel on 443

Wireguard is easier to setup because there’s no OpenVPN app that packages stunnel (afaik), so you have to run 2 apps on your phone to make it work.

A server like caddy can also accept HTTPS traffic for some regular websites next to the VPN server.

Wireguard uses UDP, so just run whatever you want on 443 TCP with caddy (unless you want QUIC for some reason?)

Anything beyond that and you’d be looking at using a proper obfuscation solution like Shadowsocks or obfs4, in which case you should look into Amnezia or Tor bridges.

Makes sense but since ISPs are essentially a monopoly in fiber, they get to charge whatever they want, despite the fact that I know AT&T’s break even cost for 5G fiber is $10 a month per line.

I think ever since Valve fought through their first lawsuit with Sierra and lucked out with them finding evidence showing destruction of evidence, they probably developed zero appetite to fold for frivolous lawsuits lol.

Hey to be fair I know several people who do know, but so poorly that they’ll still be defnitley grinding your gears lol.

I’m late to this reply, but Chinese pilots and aircraft have actually become quite competent this decade. Their behavior with international intercepts doesn’t mean anything, especially when its usually done by some ye olde J-11s. And amazingly they kickstarted the LRAAM arms race again with their highly successful PL-15.

The F-35 does get to face off against China’s J-20 and J-35, but to answer your question, the thing was built as an export product to make a ton of money for Lockheed.

While there is obvious technological advancement from the F-22, it has a top speed akin to a dated block I JF-17, reliability as good as a land rover, and parts/munitions expensive as golden caviar.

It’s just an export all in one stealth solution because there is no alternative that was developed.

Which is why I want to see it pitted against any nation that has properly delved into counter stealth operations. I feel like if you can successfully light it up, it would struggle in a BVR fight, unlike the F-22 which has plenty of power to mess around.

There’s no direct Chinese equivalent because both the J-20 and J-35 are more akin to the F-22 (although J-35 is a bit closer), but I would not be surprised to find the F-35 not being able to keep up with such adversaries.

And I’m fairly certain USAF is completely aware of this in their redteam exercises, which is why they continue to field the F-22 as their primary stealth air superiority fighter, if not outright their primary air superiority fighter.

Even more annoyingly for the USAF, I don’t think the upcoming F-47 is going to come before China decides to jump on Taiwan, so they’ll more than likely be fighting with whatever they have today.

They don’t mention it, but I highly suspect its actually not significant.

I used to think fast charging did the same thing, but it turns out that even the heaviest wattage implementations have negligible effects on cycles and health.

As long as your driver is smart enough to control or manipulate the voltage at certain capacities (<15% and >85%), the higher power won’t affect the cell quality.

I am literally just waiting for China to catch up and knock over all 3 of these TSMC suckers.

I don’t care if they throw a 2000% tarrif on it, I will figure out a way to bypass it so I can enjoy pre inflation PC prices again when high end GPUs were going for $300, SSDs became so cheap that the HDD market actually started falling behind, and you could chuck RAM sticks around like spare change.

The American Auto Industry has been struggling to keep pace since the 80s lmao

They only exist because they threw their money at congress to make horsecrap legislation that bans competition.

They even assassinated sedans with EPA laws that stimulates everyone to make SUVs lol.
