I can understand complaints about Metroid but Star Fox fans were probably expecting jack squat from the start of the year. Putting it in the last movie is a pretty strong indicator for more content. A lot of Nintendo's remakes end up b

Ah, now I get everyone's confusion. My understanding of the attack is that it involves (1) prompt injection of the AI Studio agent to replace the URL value ("replacing BANG...") and (2) phishing of the creator to click the li

I'm a little confused why so many here are making it seem like this particular attack is completely unstoppable. Just don't include private videos in training or inference. My guess is that the agent that runs this viewer comment

I don't think they can 100% fix it that way, but the least they can do is strip links before and after the prompt and not let the model have access to private videos. Has anyone tested if this AI Studio model can be manipulated into ed

That also leads to my other (perhaps main) issue with this idea, which is that it requires some level of coordination or synchronicity with the delivery courier that's simply inconvenient for both of us. I've lived in apartments t

That idea is intriguing but brings up a lot of questions. If I live out in the middle of nowhere, order something but take a long time to open it, when does the Amazon truck come back to take the packaging? If there's a million of us p

From a non-(voluntary-)user perspective, that kind of arrogance and frankly abuse is what got Apple diehard fans, so it wouldn't surprise me if Rivian is also aiming for that.

To me it's not even the comparison with builds that's damning; it's the comparison with handhelds and other mini PCs. Most people excited by this probably have a Steam Deck or another handheld, so they have to be into playing

The DX for CORS and CSP is horrible because none of the browsers point out where the problem is coming from. In a sane world they would all write "response header" or "meta tag" somewhere in the message but the Riddler,

In my experience it will also make you appreciate aspects of physical production that don't apply to programming. For example, how precisely you need to cut fabric and join/pin/baste fabric together before you sew such that

He's right. The nerds who want WebUSB are leaving or using Chromium on the side. Firefox has just been collecting the nerds who want absolute safety and privacy at the cost of any functionality (which apparently includes removing exten

Japan has multiple ticket vendors (Lawson is dominant but not close to TM), dozens of venues of all sizes, concert tours lasting years (I have tickets for a show in November 2027), ID checks, ticket lotteries, presales for fan clubs, anti-s

Mozilla's position from when Chrome first dropped it to September 2024 was "the benefits it provides are not significant enough on their own to justify the cost of adding another raster image format to the Web" [0], which the

Building is not the same as maintaining and updating. As long as Apple wants to take a week to review every change and occasionally rejecting client versions (insert similar complaints about Microsoft, Google, Linux here), there will still

Ah I see, I didn't understand the original question properly. "Choose one side of DST or another" was meant for the time literal, not the TZ. That's my bad.

by cyberrock 5mo ago
That's an interesting perspective because if I use America/New_York I would assume that it's subject to the laws of New York City. If I wanted a different DST regime I'd just use +4, +5, or a different city.

For me the main problem of SO isn't even the moderation or human interaction. Even if a question is answered successfully, the entries have a short shelf life because modern APIs move and break so quickly. For example, I tried learning

Japan only requires leaving for converting a tourist/digital nomad visa and some Working Holiday Visas to a normal working/spouse visa. And WHV to normal status is really dependent on the partner country. For example Australians d

If Claude occasionally overestimates the conversion, that might be an artifact of Australian tablespoons being different (4tsp/20mL vs 3tsp/15mL in the US). This error could at least be explained as a complication of the real worl

Core XY didn't exist in consumer printers outside of Vorons that took hours to build. If all a new company did was take an obvious concept and make it accessible, then that just reflects poorly on the previous market leaders.

The "middle ground" is fairly split amongst different manufacturers like Creality, Anycubic, Elegoo, and even Anker now so it's hard for a popular one to emerge. Having experienced both Prusa's prices (not just the machi

Japanese storefronts still have rather limited stock of only Japan-locked consoles (shop region and console language locked to Japan). IIUC right now the only way to get the usual international console is through the Nintendo online shop wi
