So... Match em? It's not "unfair" if you don't even bother to keep up

I wish it were as easy to make money on stock prices going down as it is to make money on stock prices going up

algorithmae ,

I'm not employed by Nvidia though? Unless I'm misunderstanding

algorithmae ,

I can't reliably predict when line go up, but I have a pretty good idea of when line go down. Let me make money on that lol

algorithmae ,

That goes back to my original point, "I wish it were as easy..."

algorithmae ,

Literally just make ads less obnoxious, and/or make YouTube premium not stupidly expensive. That's all you fuckin have to do, YouTube, and you can cut a huge portion of the cat and mouse game.

algorithmae ,

As much as I don't want to believe it, it must be true. I guess development is cheap enough when you have foreign countries doing it for you

algorithmae ,

Interesting thought I had, this comic could have been made in 1924 and would have fit perfectly well

algorithmae ,

Not in the US unfortunately, which is bullshit

algorithmae ,

Is there a better term for a paneled, storytelling, drawn art?

algorithmae ,

There is an story that is being told, with events and a plot and characters, regardless of how brief it is. Your opinion on whether it's a good story or not doesn't matter.

Also why the sudden hostility? You alright dude?

Photoshop select tools are awesome back to like CS4. Magnetic Lasso and Quick Select are super powerful and let you chain other tools together, and I remember something about Photoshop having good feather select features as well. Not having that base in other software severely limits what you can do.

Photoshop's healing and clone stamp tools are also good at predicting what I want to fix or patch. If GIMP or other OSS editors have those features, they'd be in my toolbox for sure.

Disclaimer, my old copy of photoshop was "gifted from a friend" so I'm not trying to shill them. I haven't used GIMP in a few years, so maybe (hopefully) it's better than it was back then

algorithmae ,

And that's the delivery driver's fault how, exactly?

algorithmae ,

Reject modernity, embrace 13th century BC Chinese practices and write stuff down instead. They invented it after all, it would be fitting

algorithmae ,

China: let's get more money through glorious capitalism

Also China: wait not like that stop it

algorithmae ,

Thanks, I hate it

algorithmae ,

That's horrifying. Why would a potential life-threatening device be controlled by a smartphone app? What functions could possibly not be handled on the pump itself and need to be offloaded? What FDA crook was paid off to allow such a stupid thing to hit the market?

algorithmae ,

Why does it need a connection to another device in the first place though? Silicon is tiny and cheap; all the logic, sensing, and scheduling could be done inside the pump.

algorithmae ,

Yeah I didn't get that at all

algorithmae ,

That was one of the tamest comments I've seen on the internet. There wasn't even remarks about your mom.

Breakthrough promises secure and private quantum computing at home (www.physics.ox.ac.uk)

The full power of next-generation quantum computing could soon be harnessed by millions of individuals and companies thanks to a breakthrough by scientists at Oxford’s Department of Physics guaranteeing security and privacy. The advance promises to unlock the transformative potential of cloud-based quantum computing and is...

algorithmae ,

What more likely to come out first: quantum computing or nuclear fusion?

algorithmae ,

Good, stop using Discord to host your shit

    Am I missing something? This isn't a comic? I'm so confused

    algorithmae ,

    I didn't see anything in the article about "effectively forcing everyone to identify themselves to online platforms," care to elaborate?

    Android users who have a keen eye for design and detail, how is the whole stutter/lag situation? Esp. after a few years of use?

    I haven't used an Android device since my last one, the Galaxy S8. Beautiful hardware, beautiful design, but it was plagued with animation stutters and dropped frames. I switched to an iPhone and an iPad around 6 years ago. And the animations were buttersmooth. It was almost unthinkable to achieve such a fluid interface on any...

    algorithmae ,

    The first thing I do on any new phone is go to developer options and turn all 3 animation settings to off. It's a night and day difference.
    I've probably saved a collective hour of my life not waiting for animations lol

    algorithmae ,

    Really? I see it but it's nothing more than a light ribbing. Like ironically saying "no cap frfr"

    algorithmae ,

    Yup exactly

    algorithmae ,

    Not nearly enough car accidents and floating trashburgs

    algorithmae ,

    That's cool and all and important for exposure, but what can I really do about it? It's the ethereal algorithm and shitty companies gaming it for profit, with everyone else suffering because of it

    algorithmae ,

    Yes
