Most of the RAM & CPU resources used by web browsers are mainly the fault of web developers who have no clue about memory management and will happily write code that uses 100% of a CPU core to do nothing.

Which might be what is happening here: they worry (or worried? supposedly Micron is building a new factory?) this AI boom will/would go bust soon, so (too much) investment in new capacity might not be worth it?

There are enough Israeli videos, texts, interviews & testimonies about IDF soldiers intentionally targetting children & bragging about it. No need to depend on Hamas communications.

Hamas doesn't care much about civilians, nobody says otherwise. But that's no legitimation for also murdering civilians.

Part of Hamas' militias fought alongside the Egyptian army against IS & AQ in Egypt, so that's not entirely true.

What is true is that Egypt doesn't want to take in 2 million poor, underfed, sick, homeless Gazans & have to care for them.

In the UK, do you sell the license plate along with the car or something?

In the rest of the world CC processing uses a PIN code + online revocation check (when the card is present) or a redirect through your bank (which hopefully uses some type of 2FA). Works a lot better & safer, and you should wonder why they pretend to need to violate your privacy in the USA…

Collision only detectable when you have both messages. Detecting a forgery seems more likely.

The Oscar-winning animated feature movie “Flow” was made with Blender.

Why would anyone entrust money to a company like eBay if they are this incompetent at something as simple as e-mail?

Should have registered as rei-are-incompetent-idiots@ instead…

Most RBLs are scams. No competent mail admin uses them to block mail ever.

Oh yes, so many websites are incompetent like that.

And of course after registering with [email protected] they will happily send invoices to [email protected]

The + has no special meaning in the standards, and thus removing it will just result in invalid addresses in many cases…

It's well-known that all commercial models are based on stolen content. That doesn't mean there is no filtering/censoring, just that the censoring likely depends on where it's happening…

In many countries it is mandatory to mark any form of compensated advertising as such. If your claim is true they might be breaking some laws here & there…

Using OCR you could reduce that to seconds.

While I do get a lot of mail, including a lot of spam, it’s not that bad.

And the real problem is that most commercial companies make their legitimate administrative/legal mails look more & more like spam or phishing mails, not the other way around.

I get those too, and I don’t even have any Microsoft accounts. So I assume at least some of them are not real. ;)

And for a company, not having to train people on all new applications at once might be what makes it _practically_ possible at all.

How can you _prove_ (“demonstrate”) that your software doesn’t contain malware or any vulnerabilities?

They can’t do that for any of their own software for sure…

Not all "hostname lookups" by applications happen over DNS (or the DNS is done by something like systemd-resolved, which is often using encrypted lookups), so in many cases, depending on NSS configuration (e.g. 'file', 'resolve', 'db', 'nis', 'mymachines', 'libvirt', 'winbind', ...) this would never work?

WiFi works fine if there are drivers for whatever WiFi chip you have.

Unfortunately there are no standards for OS to talk to WiFi devices like exist for many other types of hardware, so it’s not possible to make generic drivers.

It seems like this was implemented as a way to insert tips, and then abused to insert ads, so the developers involved might not have been aware of that part until later?

They reduce accidents in general, but bring us some “entertaining” new ones where a (usually) drunk driver crashes into the statue/fountain/whatever in the middle or uses the little “hill” in the middle as a jump ramp…

Before people believe the Tesla robot hype they should probably consider that Toyota has been making cars AND robots for longer than Tesla exists.

More importantly: it seems like Austin is mostly a typical US city grid of wide streets. Nothing comparable with an average old inner city, or narrow countryside roads with a ditch or cliff or quay on one or both sides. Probably not many pedestrians & cyclists roaming the streets either?

“Pump & Dump” has a very specific meaning here, something that is essentially a scam to cheat people out of their money, and not an actual honest attempt to create something new…

These AI crawlers already steal residential user connections to do their scraping. They'll happily steal your trust tokens too…

I know where the nuclear waste is stored here. Its storage is funded by the government for now (not included in electricity prices) and nobody can actually prove it will be safe for the centuries it will be dangerous.
