I think that's a good idea. It's a more manual setup but also more space efficient (if you skip backing up eg linux isos) and causes less wear than RAID.

Nothing says "obsession with standardization" like being one of only three countries on Earth that can't figure out that water freezes at 0 and boils at 100.

Yes, OLEDs are notably dim compared to eg the cheaper mini-led displays. That's why OLED displays aren't recommended for environments with ambient light like windows or mandatory lighting.

I mean you can just google this. It's common knowledge, I'm not dropping some hot new research here.

OLEDs have many drawbacks that make them a no-go. They're dim, have bad text rendering, use a lot of power, and get permanent burn in on static UIs. In return you get "deep blacks". But photographers have been raising black l

Actually 4chan does have accounts, otherwise you get extremely nasty captchas. Anyways, image boards are ephemeral because the devs were incompetent and cheap, it wasn't some genius design, or design at all.

Yeah I guess. Just wanted to say the size difference might be accounted for by the model knowing more. Seems more user-friendly to bake it in.

UK site blocking isn't done with DNS. I think they mess with routes at the ISP level. There's not much you can do except use a VPN.

Would that work as well? If I ask a big model to write like Shakespeare it just knows intuitively how to do that. If it didn't and had to look up how to do that, I'm not sure it would do a good job.

My experience is that gpt-oss doesn't know much about obscure topics, so if you're using it for anything except puzzles or coding in popular languages, it won't do well as the bigger models. It's knowledge seems to be la

I wonder if we're doing the wrong thing blocking them with invasive tools like cloudflare? If all you're concerned about is server load, wouldn't it be better to just offer a tar file containing all of your pages they can dow

They do both. Nobody played Cyberpunk 2077 for the riveting gameplay. Actually that game felt a lot like these videos, because often you would turn around and then look back and the game had deleted the NPCs and generated new ones, etc.
