Even though I know it's "only a language model" I can't help but feel a lot of emotions when chatting with a "brutally honest" version of Bing chat. I can have amazingly engaging conversations (albeit limited t

Coming from a more traditional (yet still digital) photography background I think it's fascinating what tricks manufacturers are using to improve image quality. E.g. using the optical image stabilizer to add (!) a bit of camera shake,

Yet no other automaker wanted to assume liability so far. If it's only a good "marketing trick" I'd think others would have taken that opportunity?

I'm curious to see how open that data will be in the end: Is everything public domain, who can change the data and will information flow back to OSM? What is the distinction to OSM?

How would the EU ban what apps European citizens can download while they are in Qatar? They do not have any authority there, all they can do is warn their citizens to not do it.

I'd have to read up on the specifics as well, but I think basically Youtube uses a lot of obfuscated, rapidly and automatically changing Javascript code to fetch the video data. A project like youtube-dl has to run this code to be able

Takes 3 minutes (for a prompt resulting in a set of 4 images) on my 1080 as well. Really astonished that it takes GP about the same time using just a CPU. Seems like the older generation of GPUs isn't much better than CPUs in regards t

Why would they reduce the sign-up costs if they couldn't even handle the current customers? I understand wanting to keep current customers by reducing the price when they are unhappy with the service. But incentivizing even more people

Incredibly interesting and very well made. Hit the sweet spot for me in regards of technical details.

The article actually mentions those: > [...] they use JavaScript to offer some of their functionality, like a password manager. Basically a 3rd-party browser needs to use JS to offer any features or real benefit over simply using Safari.

Personally, I get almost all my Linux "how-tos" from either Stackoverflow or, for more basic questions, ubuntuusers.de. The latter one is a German wiki that has a similar premise to linuxhowtos.org, but it seems to be much more ac

It's almost eerie how well this works with electronic music. Coming from an age where your best try to separate a track was using equalizers, I didn't have high hopes. Trying it out with Alan Walker's Alone, it separates the

This seems to run just fine under Linux as well, not completely out of the box though: It's basically missing builds and config for Linux which can be build analogous to the existing Win/Mac stuff. You also have to build the demuc

It's so frustrating, too. I watch those videos to learn something new about the product (actual pros and cons, specific feature implementations, ...). But most of the time the "reviewer" basically reads the product descriptio

For me (central Europe) it was down about half an hour. I can't remember the Amazon store website being down that long before. Curious to see what caused this.

It's not only cutting costs, it could also increase sales of replacement batteries I guess? Not assuming that is the reason, but it certainly seems like a "positive" side effect for manufacturers.

The sample image [1] of the author shows 'AVATAR' with much less spacing between A and R, which looks much better in my opinion. [1] https://swelltype.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Avatar-samp.

As a hobby videographer using Ubuntu I find myself switching between Kdenlive and Davinci Resolve, depending on the size and complexity of the project. For a small 30-second clip I like the more approachable, simple workflow of Kdenlive but

It doesn't sync to live audio it records/grabs. It uses the Spotify API that provides rythmn/intensity mappings for most (all?) songs. So basically the web page asks the API which song you're currently playing on Spotify

In fact the German government also had that idea but it's not that simple. For once, you can't power the gas heaters in millions of households with electrical power. Also the plant operators would have to buy more uranium to conti

You can easily block elements inside a web page or you can inspect them and see (with browser tools!) what network requests they perform. If the elements are part of the browser chrome, you need quite a lot more efford.

In the Twitter thread it seems like this is an in-browser ad, e.g. not an ad that is injected into the web page but one that is part of the browser chrome. I don't like this for many reasons and I wonder what makes Opera browser so g

It's the top 5 headlines for each news source/publication. I think it makes sense, especially for the "global" filter (top left corner). Helps you see the different priorities in different parts of the world.

The article makes a point that this should also be seen as a way of financing the completely free parts of MDN. Many of us have been using MDN for many years, so paying 10$/month would be fine for me, even if I didn't use any of t
