And if you do find . it prepends every result with a dot.

MonkderDritte ,

How? Are they expecting more ad income to offset the energy costs?

MonkderDritte ,

I use things that work

Blowing leaves around instead of removing it, isn't ideal then.

MonkderDritte ,

Btw, why is that? It's not just a CCD in infrared wavelength? Or is it the thermal decoupling part?

MonkderDritte ,

Ah, thanks.

MonkderDritte ,

Well, another reason for a degoogled custom rom.

MonkderDritte ,

So they throw vendors of knives in jail too?

What file format do you store your media in?

Hello! I recently listened to a podcast that talked about how storing media files in .av1 format is very efficient and storage-friendly. I've been storing my files in .mkv format, but now I'm considering using Handbrake or a similar service to convert all my video files to .av1 if it's more compressed than .mkv. So;...

MonkderDritte ,

But one bit flip and you can trash the whole iso. Which is why i don't even pdf my scans but keep them as png.

MonkderDritte ,

Wasn't privacy badger the addon owned by a suspicious company? And telemetry or something?

MonkderDritte ,

Right , Ghostery, my bad.

MonkderDritte ,

tar zxvf filename.tar.gz file?

MonkderDritte , (edited )

z=zip (default in most tar), x=eXtract, v=verbose (not needed in most cases), f=target

MonkderDritte ,

Ugh.

MonkderDritte ,

The giant in the picture, thats like trying to squash an ant with a chef knive.

Connected cars’ illegal data collection and use now on FTC’s “radar” (arstechnica.com)

The Federal Trade Commission's Office of Technology has issued a warning to automakers that sell connected cars. Companies that offer such products "do not have the free license to monetize people’s information beyond purposes needed to provide their requested product or service," it wrote in a blog post on Tuesday. Just...

MonkderDritte ,

Wasn't it Merkel years ago with whom car data belongs to: the telecommunication provider or the vendor?

MonkderDritte ,

People believed that they could write better assembly. For speed and size.

Now we know we can't write better C.

Though my teacher in tech school a few years ago ran an entire OS, where everything is written in assembler. What was it?

MonkderDritte ,

Yeah, sounds like this, thanks!

Makes me wonder why the suckless guys don't hook in there.

MonkderDritte ,

Speeding Windows 7 desktop up by changing animation duration of taskbar & co. from 400 ms to less.

MonkderDritte ,

You are normal people.

For a fact, i'm not normal.

Firefox 126: New Search Data Telemetry, Improved Copy Without Site Tracking, Security Fixes, and More (www.mozilla.org)

Telemetry was added to create an aggregate count of searches by category to broadly inform search feature development. These categories are based on 20 high-level content types, such as "sports,” "business," and "travel". This data will not be associated with specific users and will be collected using OHTTP to remove IP...

MonkderDritte ,

So, is it disabled via

  • toolkit.telemetry.enabled
  • datareporting.policy.dataSubmissionEnabled
  • datareporting.healthreport.service.enabled
  • datareporting.healthreport.upload.enabled
  • app.shield.optoutstudies.enabled
  • app.normandy.enabled
  • app.normandy.optoutstudies.enabled

Or all of them?

Edit: the app.* settings are for "studies", unrelated.

Chose "free" as in paying with data or pay with money. Hosting a reliable email service is not simple.

MonkderDritte ,

Meaning... to tax oil production more, so bio-degredable alternatives have better chances?

‘My whole library is wiped out’: what it means to own movies and TV in the age of streaming services (www.theguardian.com)

*What rights do you have to the digital movies, TV shows and music you buy online? That question was on the minds of Telstra TV Box Office customers this month after the company announced it would shut down the service in June. Customers were told that unless they moved over to another service, Fetch, they would no longer be...

MonkderDritte ,

Nobody told them that they lose the more useful people first that way?

MonkderDritte ,

Higher FPS? Classical Ninendo games don't use FPS as timer?

MonkderDritte ,

Thanks! Didn't saw the video.

MonkderDritte ,

Maybe with automated gathering and launched via mass launcher directly into earths athmosphere, it could be somewhat cost-competitive

MonkderDritte ,

I know they're supposed to be good less damaging for the environment but... God I hate those caps.

MonkderDritte ,

Jokes on you, because i looked into this once. I don't know the exact ms the light-sensitive rods in human eyes need to refresh the chemical anymore but it resulted in about 70 fps, so about 13 ms i guess (the color-sensitive cones are far slower). But psycho-optical effects can drive that number up to 100 fps in LCD displays. Though it looks like you can train yourself with certain computer tasks to follow movements with your eye, being far more sensible to flickering.

Note for the "unused RAM is wasted RAM" people, in the description of earlyoom:

Why is "available" memory checked as opposed to "free" memory? On a healthy Linux system, "free" memory is supposed to be close to zero, because Linux uses all available physical memory to cache disk access. These caches can be dropped any time the memory is needed for something else.

So yeah, there's a difference.

MonkderDritte , (edited )

The cat is the Rimworld mod with a hefty memory leak yesterday. 32 GB was full in seconds. But it gave me enough time to find the culprit and kill Rimworld without trashing my session every time.

MonkderDritte ,

lol, you wish.

MonkderDritte ,

There's a neuron layer trimming data down to squeeze it through the optical nerve, so... no clue.

MonkderDritte ,

Thanks! But where is the SysRq key?

MonkderDritte ,

Well, i do not follow movements (jump to the target) with my eyes and see no difference between 30 and 60 FPS, run comfortably Ark Survival on my iGPU at 20 FPS. And i'm still pretty good in shooters.

Yeah, it's bad that our current tech stack doesn't allow to just change image where change happens.

MonkderDritte ,

Oh. Thanks!

MonkderDritte ,

Wasn't there a flood of poisenous chemical sludge in US, a few years ago?

MonkderDritte ,

Meaning current ad market in IT is a bubble? Possibly driven by dominant Google?

MonkderDritte ,

So the only way out would be legal pressure? Now how to get there?

MonkderDritte , (edited )

Considering how complex modern games are from a software standpoint, they are fucking cheap as hell

Frameworks, ready to use engines and props and less care for efficiency (see Ark Survival) make it less effort for more results.

Wasn't there some asian guy who made a whole action level in Unity just for fun?

MonkderDritte ,

Because DRM mechanisms.

MonkderDritte ,

No, i only said it isn't as expensive as you think anymore.

MonkderDritte ,

Between the lines.

And talent is in AAA overruled by sales people.

MonkderDritte ,

Good sign that your city invests too less/wrong in public transport.
