algorithmae,

So… Match em? It’s not “unfair” if you don’t even bother to keep up

algorithmae,

I thought this was a joke but no, holy shit

algorithmae,

I wish it were as easy to make money on stock prices going down as it is to make money on stock prices going up

algorithmae,

I’m not employed by Nvidia though? Unless I’m misunderstanding

algorithmae,

I can’t reliably predict when line go up, but I have a pretty good idea of when line go down. Let me make money on that lol

algorithmae,

That goes back to my original point, “I wish it were as easy…”

algorithmae,

I mean that’s kinda what it already is

algorithmae,

Literally just make ads less obnoxious, and/or make YouTube premium not stupidly expensive. That’s all you fuckin have to do, YouTube, and you can cut a huge portion of the cat and mouse game.

algorithmae,

As much as I don’t want to believe it, it must be true. I guess development is cheap enough when you have foreign countries doing it for you

algorithmae,

Not in the US unfortunately, which is bullshit

algorithmae,

Photoshop select tools are awesome back to like CS4. Magnetic Lasso and Quick Select are super powerful and let you chain other tools together, and I remember something about Photoshop having good feather select features as well. Not having that base in other software severely limits what you can do.

Photoshop’s healing and clone stamp tools are also good at predicting what I want to fix or patch. If GIMP or other OSS editors have those features, they’d be in my toolbox for sure.

Disclaimer, my old copy of photoshop was “gifted from a friend” so I’m not trying to shill them. I haven’t used GIMP in a few years, so maybe (hopefully) it’s better than it was back then

algorithmae,

Reject modernity, embrace 13th century BC Chinese practices and write stuff down instead. They invented it after all, it would be fitting

algorithmae,

I could have sworn there were a dozen A presses left, and it turns out there is: for 120 star. For anyone else wondering, this is 0x a press for any%

algorithmae,

China: let’s get more money through glorious capitalism

Also China: wait not like that stop it

algorithmae,

That’s horrifying. Why would a potential life-threatening device be controlled by a smartphone app? What functions could possibly not be handled on the pump itself and need to be offloaded? What FDA crook was paid off to allow such a stupid thing to hit the market?

algorithmae,

Why does it need a connection to another device in the first place though? Silicon is tiny and cheap; all the logic, sensing, and scheduling could be done inside the pump.

algorithmae,

That was one of the tamest comments I’ve seen on the internet. There wasn’t even remarks about your mom.

algorithmae,

I disabled the recommended section cuz I expected this exact situation, not surprised at all

algorithmae, (edited )

Aggressive words have lost all meaning. I’m pretty disappointed to see him not taking swings at anyone

Breakthrough promises secure and private quantum computing at home (www.physics.ox.ac.uk)

The full power of next-generation quantum computing could soon be harnessed by millions of individuals and companies thanks to a breakthrough by scientists at Oxford’s Department of Physics guaranteeing security and privacy. The advance promises to unlock the transformative potential of cloud-based quantum computing and is...

algorithmae,

What more likely to come out first: quantum computing or nuclear fusion?

algorithmae,

Good, stop using Discord to host your shit

algorithmae,

I really liked Tetris DS. The retro NES graphics and remixed music was a fantastic love letter to those old games, and the songs were pretty damn good to boot. It was also the version of Tetris I was best at, for some reason I was a lot better with the old, flat, firm DS Phat buttons more than any other console. I forgot what level I got to in Endless but it was probably over 500. Multiplayer was also a hoot, with powerups and you could play with 9 other people that didn’t even need the game to play. (Remember those days when you didn’t have to all have a copy of the game to play together? What a concept!)

Highly recommend if you want to emulate it!

algorithmae,

I didn’t see anything in the article about “effectively forcing everyone to identify themselves to online platforms,” care to elaborate?

Android users who have a keen eye for design and detail, how is the whole stutter/lag situation? Esp. after a few years of use?

I haven’t used an Android device since my last one, the Galaxy S8. Beautiful hardware, beautiful design, but it was plagued with animation stutters and dropped frames. I switched to an iPhone and an iPad around 6 years ago. And the animations were buttersmooth. It was almost unthinkable to achieve such a fluid interface on any...

algorithmae,

The first thing I do on any new phone is go to developer options and turn all 3 animation settings to off. It’s a night and day difference. I’ve probably saved a collective hour of my life not waiting for animations lol

algorithmae,

That’s cool and all and important for exposure, but what can I really do about it? It’s the ethereal algorithm and shitty companies gaming it for profit, with everyone else suffering because of it

algorithmae,

Just like all other subjects in life, you’ll be a lot happier if you stay away from news and tabloids

algorithmae,

In this case, “ass” is a funny oversimplification. The player model is on the screen all the time, so having it be attractive adds to the visual appeal of the whole experience

algorithmae,

If it’s your own personal system, you will not be forced to switch to Linux or buy new hardware when windows 10 reaches EOL. Just keep using it…

algorithmae,

Of course battery technology improved, but the amount of news articles claiming XYZ will change technology forever outnumbers the actual number of innovations 100 to 1
