Nvidia started working on CUDA back in the mid-2000s. Nobody else cared about GPU compute back then.

I'd argue that we should ruin people's lives over it. Why stop driving drunk if there are no serious consequences?

In my country the state now confiscates cars of drunk drivers if their BAC is above 0.15%. And they also get criminally prosecuted - having a criminal record can seriously fuck up their lives. But some people still choose to drive drunk.

If there are so many valid licence plate designs - it's easier to make fake ones. An ordinary cop is unlikely to tell the difference.

From my experiments it seems that SD XL understands prompts much better. While SD 1.5 is great at generating your typical "anime girl with big boobs" stuff - if you try to generate something a little bit more unusual - it usually

To me "tech" means heavy industry, manufacturing stuff like cars, ships, planes - also making computer parts, phones, TVs, cameras etc. But the biggest American so-called "tech" companies seem to be all about surveillanc

If Bitlocker had a backdoor it would have leaked by now. I don't believe that they could keep an "alphabet boys only" backdoor secret for that long. How would that backdoor even look like? A some sort of master key that can d

Seems like it's still better to buy Nvidia then. Nvidia cards support both DLSS and FSR so you can choose the tech that works best with the particular game. Meanwhile AMD only supports FSR and if the game looks better with DLSS then th

A thief like that doesn't steal just one package. Multiple thefts like that can easily add up to a felony amount. This is why the theft still should be reported. The cops won't look for that package specifically, but they could bu

Hot take - their involvement in gambling is much better than lobbying for copyright term extension and preventing Mickey Mouse from entering into public domain.

The USA already modified their city design. The cities were much denser before cars were invented. Lots of stuff was bulldozed and converted to parking lots. In many European cities you can see single family homes next to apartment building

Tbh most people who use Chrome already send it to Google. The ISP can only see the domain name. Google can see the full url. But it's so convenient to sync browsing history between multiple devices, apparently.
