VLC doesn't have perfect compatibility. I think it worked correctly on random video files less frequently than mpv the last time I tried it. And mpv can actually step forward and back frame by frame.

There are a bunch of contributors to these projects. I wrote the C version of Orca (and helped design the second version of its evaluation strategy) but also had help and ideas from other contributors as well. I wrote the Windows version of

Another way of writing it out: How likely is it that you'd get these votes distributions 51.2000000% 44.2000000% 04.6000000% exactly? With all of those clean 0s? Very low. But it's also possible that there was s

This affected people who never even used Facebook. It would tag and track your presence in photos even if you had no Facebook account.

This is a bad idea, because it would incentivize channeling even more people into the prison system in order to have test subjects. Instead of more cures for diseases, we would get an equilibrium-finding economy of live human bodies, where

Housing isn't something you buy off of a shelf if it's worth the price. Living somewhere is a requirement. You must pay.

The spiral rule is not real and fails on even basic examples like char * foo[10][5]; The OP article shows you how to actually read the declarations, not a fake trick that will lead you astray.

What is your standard for affordable? My apartment in Japan is very cheap and in an urban area.

Housing is already affordable in Japan.

Well, yeah? What are the users going to do about it? Complain forever even though it's not going to do anything? By the way, I still see it mentioned occasionally, both in YouTube videos themselves (often when someone is talking about

My comment was a reply to someone talking about being expressive with AI music generators like these. The points you are making have nothing to do with what me or the person I was replying to said.

> To criticise AI music for being the same as human music, is a curious thing to say if one doesn't want to distinguish the two somehow? I missed that point entirely I guess. I don't know why that sentence was there at all then

I know. I was saying it’s not expressive. I didn’t say that everyone has people to make music for them.

> "Music derived from existing music" describes almost all music ever written. So not any kind of argument against AI? I don't know why you are calling out this particular sentence fragment. That wasn't meant to diffe

It will let you express yourself in precisely the same amount as giving those instructions to a person to create a song for you. Very little.

Humanity lost some things when it gained recorded music. It made the profession of performer less valuable, and diminished the number of performers who could make a living. But humanity got something very valuable in return — the ability to

I've seen stories like this many times, sometimes accompanied by comments from police warning parents not to abandon their children. The problem is so bad that there's a whole movement dedicated to trying to stop or reverse this t

Yeah, this does seem AI generated, or at least “AI assisted” in that it was primarily written by AI and a human slightly modified it and then stamped their name on it. Just look at this paragraph: “Many laptops sit on a charger throughout t

This is obviously not true if you look at the current state and history of many countries in the world.

No, it was never there. Some people assumed it was, said it out loud, and it spread like a meme (as in the original meaning of the word.)

There are issues for ones that don't use iLok or any bad DRM system at all. Kilohearts plugins, for example. 14.4 is bad, Apple makes it harder and harder to not have your computer updated (including forcing major OS upgrades on user
