Valve has gotten lazy and incompetent from their rent seeking on the Steam monopoly. I will try to list some of the reasons. The service goes down for 15-30 minutes every single Tuesday during peak hours. Can you imagine if your internet, T

Photopea is a free online clone of photoshop. Doesn't have every feature but has a large majority of them.

That is certainly one of my pet peeves about that site. It is also a behavior frequently seen on IRC as well. I got a good amount of points by answering the actual questions. Since hitting moderator status based on the number of points many

They don't even have to be cut off or estranged. I've known people who had rich 300k+ parents that were the "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" kind of people who were able to pay for private college with a high school

Too many programs ask to run as admin already, people just click okay on the UAC prompt to make it go away now.

I had an interview with a company that's mentioned from time to time here. When it was the founder's turn to grill me, he spent 90% of the time staring at his iphone while barely glancing at me.

This seems like a huge amount of addresses to me, the price should drop if supply goes up. I don't expect it to tank though. Is there a recommended broker or website? I googled a few of those "transfer facilitators" and they

Anyone here know a good place to buy or lease ipv4? Is this going to lower the prices?

That's not true. Many setups proxy everything but dns traffic. That's why this topic is a thing. https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/Preventing...

Why not just send the subnet of the machine at cloudflare doing the querying?

This is assuming that level 5 automation is possible any time soon, while a growing number of people believe it isn't. If it turns out that we need another 2-3 decades to get there, Tesla will run out of money long before then.

VPNs still give you some protection especially for illegal activities. I was recently a victim of a password cracking attempt from someone using a vpn. I tried reporting the incident by sending the logs to the vpn abuse email, and they igno

I ran it for a few minutes and then it said: Uncaught RuntimeError: float unrepresentable in integer range at wasm-function[3502]:49 at wasm-function[6940]:395 at wasm-function[6939]:347 at wasm-function[3103]:334 at

The artifacts were very visible to me when rotating the camera quickly or during fast movement. If the camera isn't moving very much I think it is easier to get a high quality picture at a standard bit rate.

I participated in the beta. Everything was great except the graphics became super grainy and pixelated when you rotated the camera or during high motion scenes. My download speed is 50 mbits and I had about 5 ping to the google servers. I d

Why would you be afraid to self-manage a database for a side project? It isn't very hard to install and run, especially if you don't need to tune the system for massive load.

You can only harvest $3000 in losses per year if you have more capital losses than capital gains. That is laughably small. And you can't deduct the losses from your other income while you can as a business.

I think the .net implementation benchmarked before was using mono, that's why Java was ahead before.

Hmm that is interesting, would you consider yourself a high frequency trader?

From your experience, would you say the VIX futures are useful for anything other than traders taking chunks off the bid or ask moving the equities a few seconds later?

It is already being applied to finance. The problem is that a huge part of the market is based on emotion, so the AI makes it worse and not better. When the proverbial knife is dropping, you don't want to catch it while it is in free f

Can you elaborate on the hosted SIMs thing? More and more websites are starting to ask for SMS verification and blocking VOIP numbers like google voice and it is getting really annoying.

An entrepreneur is a more difficult job that requires you to be good at more than just programming. A capable entrepreneur imo, would not be churning out random super niche websites like the ones you just listed, hoping that one of them sti

I'm not sure how they can invest in that. I've seen amazon ec2 ips being used for ddos attacks and I blacklist the entire range for many of my websites/projects. The vast majority of visitors we get from there are abusive.

It does makes sense from their standpoint though. In their mind, everything they want to spend money on is necessary, while everything the other party wants to spend money on is wasteful.

The most difficult part about VPN as a business is dealing with the people that use the VPN for illegal activity. The authorities will come after you first. Most large providers are located in some small country like Panama so they can&#x27

The house as insulated as it can be without costly work being done on it and trying to plug up every leak. It seems like you either have a small residence or state of the art design to only drop 3-4 degrees after an entire weekend, or that
