I love how the post is clearly written by AI. A human might've noticed all the screenshots appear to be of interactive hentai games distributed through Wallpaper Engine. And wouldn't have said: > On the surface, this wallpaper

This was the technique used by American Dad speedrunners. Unfortunately, speedrun.com banned it after years of controversy, since fast-forwarding videos doesn't count as a speedrun. Summoning Salt Documentary: https://youtu.

The economics solution is to legalize drugs and give addicts an unlimited supply. Addicts do not want money , they are doing this because they have a near-perfectly inelastic demand for drugs. Satisfy the demand and they'll will get h

The United States/Canada don't have a "loser pays" rule, so this exposes me to legal fees. Right now, any lawsuit against me can be dismissed on summary judgement because even if my software causes harm, that's no

I've always wanted to expose myself to unlimited legal liability by distributing open source software.

It is. That's why SELinux and AppArmor were invented. Instead of having "root" and "user", both of these provide sets of permissions that can be granted to apps. In this case, SELinux would've stopped this. Cod

Every time I try to install Docker there's a warning that being in the "docker" group is equivalent to having root access. You should probably know about this workaround by now.

Many open-source models prioritize alignment less than American frontier ones and respond to those instructions. Why haven't they adopted GRAM?

I attended a specialized math and science program (MaCS) in the TDSB. It was gutted by removing selective admissions in favour of a lottery, precisely because of the report you've cited. The "levelling" is real in Canada and

Nuclear weapons originally led to a world in which 20-30 countries established atomic bomb programs. Instead, the global powers blocked nuclear technology from disseminating to most countries.

I praise Claude and hate AI articles because I could've asked Claude to dumb down the debate if I wanted. Articles should be high information density and summarizable with Claude.

I traveled to Austin 3 weeks ago and there were entire highways not on Google Maps. Apparently they were built in just a few months.

The hardest part about Chinese is "weird spelling" because the written language is a separate language than the spoken one. If you're using pinyin it's already easier than English.

English is one of the most difficult languages to learn, because there's so many irregular sentence/word constructions + irregular pronunciations due to vowel shift + foreign loan words like French/Latin that must be pronounc

Would be cool if it ran until you had an intransitive preference. A is worse than B, which is worse than C, which is worse than A. I thought the point was to show how ranking industries based on "evil vibes" is subjective.

China solved this years ago with mandatory ID verification to play video games. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-name_system_for_online_ga... This was to prevent children from getting addicted but also leads to real

Technically it'd make sense for Space Force, which is trying to get money for their own SOCOM unit.[1] The Marines might not be happy since they'd prefer the budget for themselves. > For the same money you could spin up a bunch

Had OP immediately sold, they would've provided a price signal that layoffs are bad in addition to making money.

> The cost would be insane. Yeah, that's why it'd be a good way for SpaceX to make money.

I don't know why space marines aren't a thing yet. The USA could put a rapid reaction force of Tier 1 Special Forces onto a space station and deploy them through atmospheric re-entry anywhere on Earth within 30 minutes. I can only

I'm referring to C heavily using pointer arithmetic. If you wanted to make it easier to convert arbitrary functions to use your shiny new resizable type, you end up with something simulator to iterators.

Oceans have salt. Saltwater is bad for electronics beyond normal water. You also need a sufficient level of water depth otherwise it'll warm to surface temperature. It also needs to be price-competitive with traditional evaporative coo
