Anyone doing accounts and data entry wants a numpad. My dad recently damaged his laptop keyboard. I gave him a spare usb keyboard, and he still went out and bought a new keyboard just for the numpad. There's a reason pc makers keep stu

Am I alone in thinking atrophy might not happen? I use a keyboard all day but it doesn't mean I can't write by hand anymore. Predictive text didn't make me forget how to spell. If i buy coffee it doesn't mean I forget ho

Of course there are people out there watching 32k movies. Was 4k not enough? Am I the only one who's still content with 720p?

These AI companies are all in the same boat. At current operating costs and profit margins they can't hope to pay back the investment, so they have to pull tricks like rebranding models and downgrading offerings silently. There's

Maybe I missed something in the article but why Singapore and not a country closer in culture to the US? Like why not compare to Canada or the UK, or anywhere in Europe? Did the study have to go as far as Singapore to find somewhere where t

I don't know which Reddit thread you're reading (there are many I'm sure) but the one in r/Aviation seems to have a favourite theory that there was a credible threat of someone with MANPADS, which are shoulder-launched s

To me the trapezoid suggests something traveling south fell in the area. Narrow at the top, wide at the bottom. Maybe they dropped a nuke by accident (again)

> EU citizens have elected ineffective leaders for decades -- leaders that ignored the potential to set up homegrown cloud providers, software suites or tech companies. It's not like there are people out there on the campaign trail

AGS is cool but I wish they'd make a version for macos. You need to use wine to run it

It's very impressive tech but subject to the same limitations as other generative AI: Inconsistency, inaccurate physics, limited time, lag, massively expensive computation. You COULD create a sailing sim but after ten minutes you might

I've never heard of CachyOS. I'm amazed at how many Linux versions there are and how good they seem and it makes me wish I could try them all.

I'm with proton on this tbh. It's not a lumo update, it's an attempt to tell people who don't use lumo about it's existence. Maybe it's not something you want to read but an email saying "hey, have you hea

I keep coming back to this. The most recent version of chatgpt I tried was able to tell me how many letter 'r's were in a very long string of characters only by writing and executing a python script to do this. Some people say thi

That's fair. I live in the EU and I love it here, and I'm glad for those protections every day. Except the damn cookie popup. I don't agree they're malicious compliance though. I think it's just regular compliance.

by bdbdbdb 9mo ago
Yes all hail the EU. Soon we'll have a popup before every individual show on Netflix asking us if we accept the cookies before we watch, all in the name of consumer protection

The great thing about this gravity storage system is how easy it is to scale. You just need a hill. Sure, it's not going to deliver the power of pumped hydro, but it's easier to build and much safer to operate. And it's certa
