This seems like well-disguised marketing speak. The biggest weakness for OLEDs isn't brightness or battery life; it's burn-in, or rather burn-out. Will blue PHOLEDs make it so device manufacturers will stop telling me to set the T

I wish there was good software for hot pixel removal in normal digital cameras. Sure you can photoshop pictures one by one, but if you have the same set of bad pixels on every shot and need to remove them in batches? Nothing will do that as

I wonder if there's a German word for that feeling. The Traveler mystery sucks, but what really ripped my heart out was realizing I'm never going to know the ending to the mysteries and cliffhanger of Beyond Good & Evil after

Is anyone surprised? Bungie sold out the idea of making good games in favor of making infinite money Skinner boxes. Destiny 2 came out six years ago . Spoiler alert: the need to make infinite money means your Destiny plotlines and big ques

At this point there are so many checks and rules applied to ChatGPT one wonders just how much performance is being sacrificed. Is it totally miniscule? Could it be significant?

What's the privacy and licensing like for this? I'm honestly too ignorant to know if someone's allowed to use this for commercial purposes, or even if it's sending the generated images/prompts somewhere even if it&#

Ostensibly the United States Constitution does not grant rights, but only recognizes natural rights , therefore in theory they should apply to any living human, not just Americans.

One is reminded of how Samsung cameras are trained to put the details of the moon over anything that looks vaguely like the moon, but just one, so you can photograph two blurry images of the moon and one of them will look like it was taken

how do I even know my red is your red I get why kids ask this. I don't get why adults ask this. If you have normal color vision and don't have a tumor in your visual cortex your red is as close to my red as the red subpixels are

Kicking Sam out was a bad move. Begging him back is worse. Instead of having an OpenAI whose vision you disagree with, now we have an OpenAI with no vision at all that's simply blown back and forth.

The spacecrafts not full of people have the same problem. I don't know how you can look at something like the JWST, which was awarded to TRW as an $824 million 7-year development project and became a $9.7 billion 20-year project and no

What's the difference for the world between the Altman and the Sutskever approach for OpenAI? With Altman the bad stuff happens at OpenAI and everyone gets it at the same time. With Sutskever, the bad stuff happens two years later but

How many PDAs do you know with microUSB connectors? MicroUSB wasn't even introduced until 2007.

No, I'm not. The connector side of micro-USB is usually the failure point. I had mini-USB receptacles fail at an extremely high rate back when I was building and selling mini-USB 2.5 inch external hard drive enclosures back in high sch

Micro-USB and USB-C receptacles are both designed for a minimum rated lifetime of 10,000 The idea that micro-USB and USB-C are supposed to be equally durable is the wrongest thing I've read all day. Frankly, mini-USB is the single mo

In addition, the title "Portugal just ran on 100% renewables" is inherently misleading because it implies the whole country operated free of fossil fuels and should really be "Portugal's electrical grid just ran on 100

We need regulations about what computers should and should not be allowed to do. Computers should not be allowed to make healthcare decisions. Computers should not be allowed to make legal threats or actions.

Right. The only thing to me that seemed even a bit off was the sauce. Too much surface tension for that little viscosity. Truly amazing piece of work for a teenager.
