Why wouldn't the AI creator program it to do that, for personal gain? If there is value, somebody will try to extract it.

Some of those people seem to be speaking so slow that it is excruciating to listen to them. When I find someone who speaks at a normal speed and I have to slow the video down, they usually have more interesting things to say. That said, tin

I am very curious as well. I have zero issues using FF everywhere. I used to have to use Chromium every couple months because some dumb website was pulling in a library that was using some non-industry-standard thing chromium did - and ever

I do some programming, but I am an academic working outside academia, rather than a programmer. I love keeping up to date on the tech world here, and I have learned many important things that have helped me over the years. But what really k

Come on, iOS is not so special. Grandmas all over the world get by just fine on an Android as well. If you don't do much with your device, you don't need much. At the same time, it is obvious that gestures should be consistent, an

I haven't used Scribus in some years. Would the apt version be good enough, or is there some bleeding edge tech they just released?

As soon as it is implemented, there goes any shred of sanity in our real estate laws. Something has to be done, but no matter what, it is going to be a bumpy ride.

Refresh is certainly the spec we are all watching to see when this becomes possible. It is getting closer every year, it seems like we are about 3 years away right now.

I am simply not interested in that sort of limitation on a display device, regardless of the available work arounds. Just sell me an eink monitor and be done with it. This is digital sign technology as can be seen at https://www.

You could be right. I only install apps as a last resort / for important functions, so I might not be a typical user.

Agree, seems like a terrible decision. Twitter took off in part because people could post and have a wide audience. That audience is greatly reduced if there are no casuals allowed.

It's a good way to follow Ukrainian news, for example (#ukraine, #ukrainewar). It definitely has its place.

Self driving fleets will be driving around to avoid parking while staying in the high use areas, and contributing a lot to traffic, perhaps more than if everyone just had their own car.

Respectfully, I think you don't understand how air filters work. Air does not pass through 4x the filter material in a 4 inch filter. Instead, the 4 inch filter is pleated, folded like an accordion, so that each air molecule passes thr

It is not actually as simple as looking at the manual. You need to take ducting layout into account, since there is a lot of air flow reduction from any ducting system, and some can be much worse than others. It definitely does cause your f

It is an act of mass destruction and a war crime, that Ukraine was very worried about for some time since it will kill many innocent people. Very, very unlikely they did it. My first bet would be the dam failed from russian negligence /

Regardless of what actually happened today, the high level was absolutely deliberate, it is just basic dam maintenance to let more water out when it fills. And that was absolutely reckless, contributing to certain deaths today. Of course, i

I would just port my number to twilio and use/write a really basic twilio mobile app. It's a bit risky to rely on a slightly cobbled hardware/software setup that is sitting across the world with no physical access.

Because you need to hide nav on mobile, since accessibility requirements from google and other web crawlers will require it to fill the much of the page, or your site won't be indexed.

Does this cause problems for web crawlers indexing sites, since these are not typical js event listeners etc? Even though they must use them in the background, there is an abstraction the crawler must be able to navigate. I had an entire si

Unless you are talking about a scale beyond what I understand from your comment, just take a 20 minute nap? That is perfectly acceptable, and considered the smarter way to deal with afternoon doldrums, in much of the world.

In this case it is a bit obvious, but often what an archeological find of this type tells us, is that something was important enough in that society for an artist to take the time to make a relief depicting it. It is not so much "peopl
