Turning dirt into money has always been kinda 'success' (depending on your definition of success)

NeoNachtwaechter ,

about 12 decibels, which all but removes them, making them 94% quieter.

This "conversion" from decibel to per cent is more than ridiculous.

NeoNachtwaechter ,

Tl;dr what is it doing?

Stolen? LOL fingerprints cannot be stolen. Stealing is taking away something from someone.

They are not protected, they are not copyrighted, they don't go away from you when someone copies them ...

You leave them everywhere, every day.

Fingerprints are public knowlege.

    In the not-so-far future, when your smartphone breaks down, you can hear the doorbell ringing immediately, and the Amaz*n guy brings a new one.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    The amount of data required for constant recording and streaming of audio would be ridiculous

    Relax, it is no big deal. Less than 1 GB for 24 hours of constant recording in good quality.

    Even much less with compression (mp3 etc) and a little loss of audio quality. And if you leave away all the silence, I guess you can tune it down to a few MB.

    That's one harddisk for a year. But ofc you don't even want to keep a whole year.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    I notice that you're using unspaced em-dashes as the alternate form for parenthetical phrases. No other girl I've ever met on OnlyFans has done that.

    LMAO

    I need to save me that!!

    How much does it matter what type of harddisk i buy for my server?

    Hello, I'm relatively new to self-hosting and recently started using Unraid, which I find fantastic! I'm now considering upgrading my storage capacity by purchasing either an 8TB or 10TB hard drive. I'm exploring both new and used options to find the best deal. However, I've noticed that prices vary based on the specific...

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Read about the specific features of the "WD RED" drives. There are some pretty good articles out there, and you are going to learn a whole lot reagarding your question.

    I got a bunch of them in my private server. I didn't know all these details when I bought them LOL, but they do a good job, reliable, silent, for 6 years and counting.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Congratulations, you have (re)invented the state machine ;-)

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite-state_machine

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Strawberry please, with lots of cream on top

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Because start-up.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    You are right. They know.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Technically it is a "Judge says" post, but they still made it look like one of the old "Elon says" posts

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Did he forget to sell his Tesla shares in time?

    What's stopping you from using Ecosia? Your searches could plant trees! (www.ecosia.org)

    Ecosia is a search engine that aggregates search results from multiple other search engines. The ad revenue from our searches funds the planting of trees worldwide. With over 200 million trees planted so far, Ecosia have learned to be fully transparent about their projects, and financials which are available right on that...

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Planting trees has shown to be not as effective at curbing the effects of climate change as previously thought.

    It is very effective if done right.

    For example, here they are doing a few things right: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Green_Wall_(Africa)

    I don't know about ecosia though. Just throwing in $0.02

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Playing pranks to AI :-)

    Reminds me... back in the day, when I was in the army. Telephones were rare then, and bulky, and they had cables of course, and dialing discs and no displays. You could not know who's calling. You always needed to tell who you are.

    My friend was a secretary in the company's office. He had no telephone, but the boss had one, and the second boss in the other office had one.

    When both bosses were out and my friend had nothing to do, he would take both telephones of these two offices. Dial the numbers of two random high ranked officers, somewhere in the administration. Then place the receivers together so that each one could hear the other one talking. And we could listen to both of them.

    Each of the officers thought that the other one had called him up, and they didn't know why.

    Most of the times, they would start to fight and shout at each other immediately :-)

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    if it means I can move robotic limbs after being paralyzed, maybe it's still worth it?

    I don't mind the progress in science and technology.

    I don't mind sacrificing some animals for that goal.

    The really terrible thought is that Elon is allowed to decide these things.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Yes. He is famous for childish & narcissistic & choleric behaviour and nobody should trust him with any serious stuff.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    No need to 'address' thin air.

    Experts are doing things. Elon isn't doing things (except boasting his ego and manipulate people's feelings etc)

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Curious: What's the deal with all the transcoding on servers?

    Don't you just need some good rendering on the client? And if you need it on the server, why need it on the fly? You can do it before, and store the result, can't you?

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    I wonder why countries let them.

    Using up more electric power than there's available is NOT a simple matter of demand and supply.

    If they actually pull too much from the grid, they are going to cause damage to others, and maybe even to the grid itself.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    They were the best electric car to buy for a long time.

    Well, if you were buying a car with both your eyes wide shut.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    This one is not made for buildings. It's superpower is placing the boulders in a smart way, building a wall without using concrete.

    No smooth surface, no paint job :)

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Only if you are able to imagine the worst.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    A Tesla engineer said the test was done wrong because the frunk increases in pressure every time.

    "You are holding it wrong!" 🤣

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    The vehicles deny reality, same as their creator...

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    This thing is a solution in search of a problem

    Most general question, what is the main purpose of this car? Why should people buy it?

    It is a tank.

    Steel walls for rich guys who want to protect their asses from masses of poor people around.

    What should the door of your tank do if you want to close it, but some bonehead does not move his fingers out, repeatedly?

    Now hurry, finally! This rich guy wants to get away from here! BAM!!

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    I have no clue why this technology is so newsworthy rn

    Yes. You said that many times. :)

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    wtf

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Tesla has always been synonymous with cutting-edge technology.

    LMAO 😂🤣😂

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    He he, good one :-)

    I have seen it on screen only. Fortunately, I live in a country where such tinkerboxes are illegal on public roads (except when you go ahead on foot and pull the thing on a string behind you).

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    What a joke 🤣

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    But on the flip side, you also have to consider how much cheaper, well, literally everything, will be

    No, it is not true. Trucks are big. In total, transportation is dead cheap.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    No surprise, and this is going to happen to everybody who uses neural net models for production. You just don't know where your data is, and therefore it is unbelievably hard to change data.

    So, if you have legal obligations to know it, or to delete some data, then you are deep in the mud.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Stop asking a language model for accurate information and problem solved

    Hey chatgpt, when did jol's wife get pregnant and by whom?

    /s

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    I would post a fictitious person disclaimer

    ... or you could read the GDPR and learn that such excuses are void.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    And if that answer contains Elon Musk, the world is going to believe it no matter what.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    LLMs don't actually store any of their training data,

    Data protection law covers all kinds of data processing.

    For example, input is processing, too. Output is processing, too. Section 4 of the GDPR.

    If you really want to rely on excuses, you would need wayyy better ones.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    ... said the sparrow and flew out of the library.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    No phantasy involved here.

    Just my initials & "server" & a number.

    Or, if the device isn't exactly a server, it can also be my initials & "router" & a number, or "bridge" etc.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    OK what is whimper's job?

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    I see :-)

    Good file servers for Proxmox?

    Hello! I have Proxmox VE running on a Dell R730 with an H730. Proxmox manages the disks in a ZFS RAID which is exactly how I want it. Because I intend for this server to have a NAS/file server, I want to set up a container or VM in proxmox that will provide network storage shares to domain-joined systems. Pretty much everything...

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    I do it the other way round: proxmox leaves it's hands away from the zpool. The 5 disks are passed through to a vm, everything ZFS starts there, and it offers the samba shares.

    My directive is that the bare metal proxmox shall not offer any services to the world outside, only VM's may do that.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Imagine you are going along a straight road, not too much traffic, the speed limit is high and you are enjoying it. Suddenly your assistant software decides to turn your steering wheel hard to the left.

    You will have no chance.

    What have you done wrong? What is it what you are accountable for?

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    The article keeps calling it “Autopilot”, which is different from “Full Self Driving”. If they are correct, then [...]

    No. That difference is meaningless, since both softwares provide autonomy level 2. The responsibilities are exactly the same.

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Cars do not think LOL

    Elon Musk says it's his turn to have the remote (www.engadget.com)

    [Xitter] just announced a smart TV app for streaming video. Or, more accurately, that it claims it's building one, with absolutely no launch date mentioned. The appropriately-named [Xitter] TV wants to be “your go-to companion for a high-quality, immersive entertainment experience on a larger screen.”

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    We are back at "Elon says" posts :-(

    Why is replacement for home device controls so complicated?

    I recently learned about Home Assistant here on Lemmy. It looks like a replacement for Google Home, etc. However, it requires an entire hardware installation. Proprietary products just use a simple app to manage and control devices, so can someone explain why a pretty robust dedicated device is necessary as a replacement? The...

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    While there are technologies that work like this (zigbee, kinda?),

    Yes, there are many. You probably know them as "remote control". Your TV, your garage door...

    Home Assistant can also control them via gateway devices, turn them into "smart" devices and include them in larger automation scenarios.
