It makes people weak, unable to control themselves and resist urges. That transfers to other areas of life or even civilization.

Why are we cheering so much for normalizing deviance? What's the next step after cannabis is considered normal and teenagers need to rebel?

It seems like YouTube deprecated /v/{video id} direct URL to all videos. All nice hacks slowly gone from Google...

How do you know you really disabled it? What if it does the same as Google that was recording location data and then uploaded them right after you established a WiFi connection? What if Amazon devices would do that a few times a day without

I find relevance logic much more intuitive than intuitionistic. Intuitionistic has still some weird assumptions that make it fit a lookup table like classical logic.

It's slower than some $300 Ryzen (5600X), just more threads and memory. It's for VR development.

You probably hit some bug, I was able to finish it completely without any major issues (I think it crashed like twice). Alyx, while cool, is too static, Hellblade features some fast combat movements and both are atmospheric in their own way

Try to increase cache from default 8GB to 64GB, that helped a lot. I play it on a 10980XE/128GB RAM/RTX3090 and HP Reverb G2 at high details and flying over Paris with the latest update is now very smooth.

Nobody gets promoted for being humble, rather pushed out of a company for a lack of ambition. Everybody loves energetic extroverts that could argue well and with proper tunnel vision to skip thinking about potential problems if it helps the

Yeah, Sigma is clunky, 60% of my shots end up out of focus, but the best shots I get are simply unbelievable. Zooming in to a pixel level is way better than anything else I saw, including 100MP medium format ones, the pictures feel alive. N

Now do the same with Sigma SD1 and quality lens and you'd be frustrated with the "sharp images from new cameras" the same way you consider old ones "faulty". Some things can't be unseen once you see them the fi

Coinbase had IPO, meaning serious business bought their shares, hedge and pension funds - I would be careful expecting any kind of normalcy in the next 2-3 years.

It's also next to impossible to get workstation boards with many PCIe slots and now that spreads even to "creator" boards. I guess mining is going to eat it all.

Hm, based on this I ordered 1x16TB and 2x14TB HDD drives right away (the maximum allowed at that seller, ~60% surcharge to the price from a week ago). If HDDs/SSDs end up as obtainable as GPUs, we are going to experience some serious t

Amazon groups accounts they think they belong to the same person and when one is banned, they band them all. Just ask 3rd party marketplace sellers. I doubt G/FB aren't doing the same.

It's not a leaked model, it was a 3D model grabbed from some mobile game...

Based on a Reddit thread, the model was 100% rigid - it would be interesting to see how the CFD changes when surfaces are allowed to bend and respond to different air densities at different spots.

Wasn't Kolomoisky one of the oligarchs that backed the overthrow of the previous pro-Russian government as well as financed the current president of Ukraine? I am wondering what went wrong for him with the US, was it just Trump in powe

OK, it was Harvard and Dennis Ritchie who didn't submit a bound copy of his thesis to Harvard library because he didn't want to pay the fee, so he didn't receive his PhD. https://dmrthesis.net/wp-content/

He could have easily earned a PhD at MIT with his work, IIRC there were some important papers he produced. He should probably use Dr(h.c.) and the matter would be settled. I bet he could easily get a PhD in business or sociology with the im

Germany's behavior was listed in my globalization MBA course as an example of negative effects of globalization and why it is not perceived favorably in some countries, so I am curious how it looked from inside?

The corruption is low among general population and low-level government offices. High business is very corrupt. Moreover, Germany used to have laws that didn't punish corruption abroad, so they exported massive corruption to Eastern Eu

Would M1 scale up with 64GB or even 1.5TB of RAM? It's not possible to have that much memory integrated; what would be the performance difference in that case?
