  • Why It's OK to Block Ads (2015)

    Jump

  • Maladvertising and scams just make that a surefire thing, especially since there's a chance that just loading an ad could infect your machine.

    And for less tech-savvy family members, it cuts down on the risk of them falling for scams or suchlike.

  • The website would also have to display to users at the end of the day. It's a similar problem as trying to solve media piracy. Worst comes to it, the crawlers could read the page like a person would.

  • Not without making real users also mine bitcoin/avoiding the site because their performance tanked.

  • What's slimy, has 4 legs, and is a house?

    Jump

  • Surely it would be more bewildering in the middle. What's something that only has 0.1 4 legs, and is 0.4 house?

  • It may not count if it's slimy on the inside.

  • If there's a sort of "apocalyptic" event but there are still surviving communities, will people be able to make eyeglasses again, or are people with vision issues gonna be fucked?

  • That's not how LASIK works.

  • ChatGPT 5 power consumption could be as much as eight times higher than GPT 4 — research institute estimates medium-sized GPT-5 response can consume up to 40 watt-hours of electricity

  • They could have kept it at the same price, though.

  • Once it generates the response, there is a button you can click to make it use the reasoning model.

    Why they did it that way instead of giving users the option to just set the model that they want to use ahead of time boggles the mind. Surely it would be more efficient for them to chose a model if they want ahead of time, rather than generating something that's going to be regenerated with the desired model instead.

  • LibreOffice is right about Microsoft, and it matters more than you think.

    Jump

  • Depends on it and its dependencies, probably. A lot of the core utilities are generally unchanged enough that they should still work despite being a decade old.

  • Microsoft Issues Free Update Offer To Millions Of Windows Users (ads in windows update menu)

  • Can't have issues on the issue tracker if you're not allowing people to submit issues.

  • YSK There's a campaign to replace the distorted Mercator world map with the fairer Equal-Earth projection

  • It seems like the kind of thing that would give rise to the ~ Earth movement

  • Generative AI too. It might be hammered into everything to the point of being tiresome, but it is technologically impressive that you can have a computer just synthesise a photo/video/music.

    Compare to 20 years ago. Being able to just go "Computer, create for me an original landscape painting", and have it make one would be something that you'd only find on television/in movies.

  • AI experts return from China stunned: The U.S. grid is so weak, the race may already be over

    Jump

  • It's only made worse by the people who treat it like the Master Computer from Star Trek, claim that it can solve all the problems, and thus attempt to shove it into anything and everything.

    It's baffling why my notepad needs to be hooked up to an LLM in the first place. It's a notepad, for quick scribbling. If people want to write something serious in it, there are far better things for that.

  • In my experience, it's been a bit of a mixed bag. There are some things that work in Linux, and some things that don't, even after a bit of fiddling. My desktop's front panel is completely unusable on Linux, for example.

    Windows is at least widespread enough that it's far more likely that parts will work on it at least to some degree. And sure enough, the front panel works fine there.

  • Although 10 years ago isn't that long in computer terms any more. Those are machines that can still run Windows 10 without issue. It's an older computer, but still perfectly usable these days.

  • The forgotten art of squatting is a revelation for bodies ruined by sitting

  • What were they comparing against? If it was just your average office worker, it might just be the difference between moving and not moving in that time.

  • If I invented a shirt that caused cameras to be damaged when filmed/photographed, would I be committing a crime by wearing the shirt at events with cameras?

    Jump

  • Although that really only works as long as the camera doesn't have an IR filter in place.
