  • If anything the taller cylinder will use more aluminum for the same volume, so they're kinda shooting themselves in the foot here with aluminum and steel tariffs, lol

    Seems pretty clear the only reason for this was to change the price without as many people noticing.

  • How is a software update a warranty claim? They should be free, like a recall. Maybe a DIY option with a USB or SD card. Either that or whatever they're adding probably isn't worth the update to me.

  • Isn't that basically how the knob on the touchscreen of the Ford Mach-E works? I think it's just glued on and simulates a touch like a stylus.

  • Stay strong this upcoming sale. The game you want but don't have temporarily licensed (AKA "own") is not going anywhere.

  • I adopted this philosophy a few years ago and have bought maybe 2 games since. I played them immediately and had fun. Meanwhile I have no interest in playing my backlog games anymore. I don't have time for them.

  • I've been saying this for a while. They need to train it to be able to say "I don't know". They need to add questions to the dataset without enough information to solve so that it can understand what is/isn't facts vs hallucinating

  • it really do be like that

  • When I think of digital signal processing I think of things like audio and Fourier transforms. In my experience there's quite a bit to graphics programming that's different from that. A lot of shader code is linear algebra / matrix math, and physics equations for light. There's also a lot of thinking about memory layouts and how to reuse calculations as much as possible.

    I say this as someone who does a lot of graphics programming in my job but failed "Feedback Control Systems" the first time through.

  • The most illegal part of a DDoS is usually the hacking / exploiting of thousands or millions of devices to make them all request twitter.com

    I'm not entirely sure what rules it would fall under if you somehow performed a DDoS using entirely your own hardware and Internet connections. It might even be legal, just against the ToS of basically every ISP. I'm pretty sure if Google or ChatGPT take down a site by sending too many crawlers there's no legal consequences.

  • Based on current trends, I'd say we might get SSDs and HDDs at the same cost per GB around 2030. That's based on prices being 12-13x higher in 2015, and around 5x higher now. SSD cost efficiencies are slowing down, but there will also be a big change in demand once the prices get close, because SSDs have other advantages people will switch as soon as it's economical.

    I've currently got a 200TB storage array using enterprise HDDs (shout out to Backblaze's HDD failure rate publications), and I definitely would not have been able to afford 200TB of enterprise SSDs.

  • If you're storing petabytes of data sure, but when a tape drive costs $8k+ (Only price I could find that wasn't "Call for quote"), and only storing less than 500TB, it's cheaper to buy hard drives.

    I'm not sure how important 2 types of media is these days, I personally have all my larger data on harddrives, but with multiple off-site copies and raid redundancy. Some people count "cloud" as another type of storage, but that's just "somebody else's harddrive"

  • As a person hosting my own data storage, tape is completely out of reach. The equipment to read archival tapes would cost more than my entire system. It's also got extremely high latency compared to spinning disks, which I can still use as live storage.

    Unless you're a huge company, spinning disks will be the way to go for bulk storage for quite a while.

  • If anyone's ever followed console emulator development, they know those undocumented commands are everywhere. There's still people finding new ones for the N64 hardware

    Edit: I should say undocumented behavior, not necessarily new commands

  • I can't read what you mean if you just insult me instead of attempting to communicate better. Clearly we have different views on this. I'm pretty sure I'm not misunderstanding you, I just think your argument is unproductive and pretty much in-line with the saying "perfect is the enemy of good"

  • Let me explain how it works when you self host like me:

    • "All" starts out completely empty, there are no federated instances to find this way.
    • You then have to browse communities on other instances and subscribe to them on your own instance. Only then will posts start showing up in "All".
    • Since there's only 1 user, the list of communities in "All" is the exact same list of communities in "Subscribed"

    For most people yes, you can just browse "All" unless you're on a smaller instance, since someone on your Instance has probably already subscribed to the community you're looking for.

  • I think it would show up in All still, but only posts that were synced while it was subscribed I think?. I haven't really checked if posts would disappear again. On the "Top Day" view I use, the "All" posts are identical to "Subscribed"

  • If you're on an instance with only 1 user, they're the same thing. But yes, Lemmy's a lot better if you just subscribe to what you want.
