Mortal Kombat OST has a lot of good industrial (genre) in it. Bands like KMFDM, but also The Immortals (Praga Khan / Lords of Acid). Orbital - Halcyon + On + On is a good track (more mellow, and one of the many tracks perfectly mixed i

Well, I can report I played Warcraft III and a plethora of other games with Wine back in the days. So I am sure (given how Wine has improved) you still can play it with Wine. No Windows required.

Yes, the warranty period for consumers in whole EU is the minimal amount: two years. But some countries have a more lax law (Germany, for example, not). For example, here in The Netherlands you can have more than two years warranty. If yo

Articles like these are great to argue nonconformity which can get you your money back in EU. Even past the warranty period.

If I was interested in mass surveillance I would combine the radio data (WLAN, BT, ...) with the camera feed. If you then see the same person with ML, you can correlate that with radio's. You can even do that with cell towers with anon

You misunderstood the point. The point isn't that you are poor. The point is that the burden of the money lies on average heavier on you than someone from USA. This creates an uneven playing field. I like to compare it with donations.

Students don't have a lot of money to burn here. They're borrowing money to study. You'll miss out on them. However, you're unlikely to notice. I mean, there is no control group in such experiment.

LLMs will allow Mal to sneak in backdoors in the dataset. Most of the popular LLMs use some kind of blacklisting instead of a smaller specific/specialised dataset. The latter seems more akin to whitelisting.

It is a privileged solution. And a stupid one, too. Because $1 is worth a lot more for someone in India, than someone in USA. If you want to implement this more fairly, you'd be looking at something like GDP or BBP plus geolock. Stre

Bill Gates already had this idea. All efforts to change email were already documented 25 years ago. The biggest changes are it is more centralized these days, SPF/DKIM/DMARC, JMAP innovation, oh... and one more thing! It is HUGE!!
