I guess that makes sense. So import an image of the mandelbrot set you generated and save it, and see if any pixels change.

Don't care that you don't care. This distinction does matter to a lot of people, because to many people there's a huge difference.

This muddle of an article makes it totally unclear to me if this GUID is attached by the AI generation call or every image I edit in MS Paint. I'm going to assume the former unless they release a clarification. Edit: Actually trivial t

This is what makes it such a fiendishly difficult issue. The problem is machine politics and corruption that steals money that should go to police forces and instead goes to lawyers and politicians pockets. But you can't talk about it

The PowerPC G5 was released in 2003. Patents last 20 years, so they expired 3 years ago. If a G5 isn't powerful enough for your use case, I don't know what is.

Law enforcement are underpaid, overworked, and they aren't even respected anymore. A lot are fine, but a lot of people are ending up there because they can't get any other job [1]. I don't think these attacks on freedom are a

Next they'll be demanding the passwords to your dropbox and onedrive, because you "might have uploaded something from your phone before re-entering the country". Bet on it.

For all its talk of 'meritoctacy', the bay area really runs on looking the part.

Makes me wonder what they did when NeXT was subsumed back into Apple. I guess the spy agencies had a lot less pressure on them by that point, so they weren't trying to procure computers from obscure sources to keep foreign spies from i

Those photos of the inside of CompUSA are just stunning. Bright sodium lighting, not a dim dank cave (one of the benefits of CRTs over modern OLED screens and their color range from black to slightly-less-black). Colorful packaging everywhe

Furthermore, it's free software. If people have a problem with it, they're free to show up and contribute, or fork if the community is really opposed to their ideas (they probably are for good reason, though).

People are definitely overhyping it, but a missing former Air Force maj. gen is kind of unusual, and "statistical noise" is kind of a funny oxymoron.

Things are generally defined by the neccessities that led to their creation. x86 was designed for home PCs and has been forced to evolve with PC technology. ARM was designed to take advantage of RISC architecture, and were forced to evolve

This requires Ring 0 already, correct? That would seriously limit its usefulness for hacks or jailbreaks.

I have a feeling this is really aimed at coding comments. I've noticed that Opus and Fable have started writing huge block comments all of a sudden.

It seemed reasonable, because keeping things up on the internet was becoming cheaper. We failed to see that capitalism would even demand payment for such trivial things.

When your moral outrage is used, for the 9 billionth time, to add more flock cameras and spy on you more, and the "rich companies" become even richer, will you or anyone else learn? Polymarket says no.

People want to feel like they're doing something in the "culture war". Rage-bait gives them an outlet. Facebook might be saving us from total civil war here.

"Add to cart" does nothing. Wonder if they actually sell floppies, or just shred them to keep pushing us towards modern technology.

Every single person in history who has ever made anything has had haters in abundance. People who just hate to hate, or demand outrageous things, or try to belittle you or make you feel bad for some stigma they confabulated, or feel entitle

I'm sorry, you're going to have to dumb it down for me. Are you saying it's "conceivable but unlikely" that courts will find that LLM generated code is owned, collectively, by the millions of people who's code

Governments are not unified bodies, and attempts to introduce thought control on the internet have failed in the US, but easily passed in the UK. Illinois has recently passed a toothless age verification law and it's being hotly debate
