I believe the cars are intended to split in half to dissipate some energy in the event of a crash.
As an Opera user since before the Cheomium switch, it’s honestly a piece of shit now. I constantly find myself annoyed by popups or features that just do not make sense. I really do need to switch to firefox, I just don’t want to lose my add obs..
Nice to see youtube-dlc being reinstated.

BTW, this fork was indeed active for a few months before the whole RIAA situation.

Wow, this is awesome to see. I hope this doesn’t put a lot of load on the IA, though..

Re:Ask HN: What is your favorite method of sending large files? on Wednesday September 02, 2020 @06:54AM (#24351935)
Resilio Sync (formerly bittorent sync) is my go-to for any file larger than a few hundred megabytes.

Twitch has a LOT of issues with their culture and moderation
I wouldn’t say Minecraft has been ruined. Sure, it’s not been taken in a direction a lot wanted, but it’s more popular than ever now..
Mixer, most likely.
Those are user-uploaded, so the appopriate copyright holder can DMCA them.

You only need a large amount of system RAM for the initial dataset encoding. You can do this once per dataset on a high memory config on AWS for pennies.
Re:Cloudflare was down on Friday July 17, 2020 @05:37PM (#23876072)
Looks like it's back. No longer getting issues with 1.1.1.1 and domains are being resolved!
Re:Cloudflare was down on Friday July 17, 2020 @05:34PM (#23876006)
East Coast USA here. Any cloudflare site is unreachable, and 1.1.1.1 is giving me massive latency and packet loss :)
I can’t speak for many technicalities between existing engines and Source 2, but from the bit I’ve been playing in Alyx, it seems to be more optimized than any other engine I’ve ever seen, especially with VR. It’s multithreaded across 3-5 cores, and runs better than a lot of games that look worse. I have no doubt that Source 2 offers performance (especially in VR) that existing engines cannot easily match.
He has been getting better recently. But he absolutely still needs to realize how much weight his words have.
Have I been using gpt-2-simple wrong..? I’ve been fine-tuning 355M on a 8GB 1080 for months..
Great work, been loving gpt-2-simple recently!

For anyone that does not browse T_D:

It was a common occurrence to see things like pictures of muslim women wearing headwear and a title of “It’s a diaper for their shit brains!”. There is casual racism, hatred towards minorities, and to top it all off, participants seemed to believe that there was nothing wrong with any of this, like you see above.

There is http://iabak.archiveteam.org, but it’s not exactly large.
A very similar event was done in 2019 with Lindsey Stirling and WaveVR, so the tech is certainly there.

The vulnerability is that there was no public key encryption, hence allowing a MiTM to redirect the steam app to their own site.

Can’t wait till this becomes applicable to something like AIDungeon!

They’re on GitLab now.
Re:Cloud Storage for $2 per TB per month on Friday March 06, 2020 @04:56PM (#22507711)
It cannot. I assume there’s an HBA thrown in the mix somewhere they did not mention.

Great writeup from David as always. Can’t wait to see more!

If anyone hasn’t seen the work being done on the skynet platform, I highly recommend taking a look. Amazing stuff.

Re:FreeNAS and TrueNAS Are Unifying on Friday March 06, 2020 @10:01AM (#22504061)
Because it just works. If you want more advanced features and are fine with tinkering, unraid likely isn’t for you.
You lost $71? That’s unfortunate. Should’ve bought more than $172 of IOTA.
Re:Cloudflare silently deleted my DNS records on Monday February 24, 2020 @01:13PM (#22406616)
That is... quite scary. Why would you EVER have a way for auto deletion of domains?
