I mean I pay artists when I can. I buy and download songs from an artist I like, but for what ever reason this one track is not available to download. Stream only! I can’t be sure, but I feel like I should say fuck you to netflix.
This is the shit that makes pirates.
I can confirm that we should all be making chocolate chip cookies. I can’t confirm any of the other stuff.
I can believe it, on my music profile there is consistently a video in the first 6 items on the home feed that is an ai generated 2 hour stream of one genre mashup. (With a fake ai woman as the thumbnail.)
I know for sure all the ai companies are on that torrent. Expect new music models.
Yea, have they changed the shape of her face?
When no one is QA, everyone becomes QA.
So is now the future in that meme?
I’m just hoping the front doesn’t fall off.
I find a cafetiere even less work for basically the same. Just don’t use boiling water, either cool it off or use one set to 80c.
I’m not convinced this is the reason for the Imgur block. They were asked by the UK about how they processed the data for minors at the start of the year. They refused to provide it, and were then fined. When the age check was implemented I think they used that as an excuse to block the UK, so they “weren’t operating in it” and didn’t need to answer the questions.
The UK gov disagrees with that and is planning more legal action iirc.
If they had done the block without that law, people would be asking why they were not revealing how they process data of minors.
I used ublockorigin to block the container for shorts and news. Much better, also set up a redirector that changes shorts URLs into the normal yt format, so that you don’t pulled into that feed.
I think this tells me that EGS is going to be pushing lots of ai developed games without any disclosure.
Ok so this one is someone trying to move to “the cloud.”
They had a database they used. It was on a server in the office. We were tasked to clone the db server to a hosted VM. Due to order of creation this got put on a new host without anything yet on it.
They needed a site to site VPN to keep privacy, that was all fine. However after the clone and during testing, their guy there said that this one part was really slow. We take a look and everything is good with performance of the server and of the VPN. I have to pop on to take a look.
It was in an office app and written in VB. (I forgot which one.) It was indeed slower on the hosted server. So I took a look at the function (he got it up for me) and I could instantly tell the issue.
This part was a lookup page that searched for you input. The function retrieved the entire table, then filtered the results in the client. I explained that transferring the whole table over the internet would be slower than on the local lan.
This guy said he originally wrote this, but “forgot VB.”
In the end they decided not to update the app or keep the server in the office, but instead they rented some VDIs in the same data centre as the db.
I know a couple of people who think they are clever for these kinds of substitutions, I can probably use this fact on them. Not sure they will change their ways after, they kinda oppose any change.
No way, those gem costs are way off, they have to be just larger than one of the packs. Minutes would cost 550 so that you either need to buy 2 500s or a 1250 pack.
Even if you have a proper clean IP, running a mail server is a hassle imo. By far having a single relay to send is fine if you get things set right, but also dealing with incoming spam is just way more work than paying to have it hosted.
I much prefer paying for email hosting and just dealing with outgoing emails if needed.
That’s watts multiplied by time, aka energy.
Considering it shows on the capture widget, probably Settings -> Gaming -> Capture.
Iirc Amazon has a special tooling for creating iot devices. It’s supposed to make creating the communication easier so you don’t have a bunch badly implemented communication systems. Ofc it uses Amazon’s cloud.
I would not be surprised if they all failed this way due to using the tool. As in the Dev’s code might not even get to know there was an outage, and the tool just keeps telling it the last state it got.
You’d be surprised how often pressing reader mode works 100% for just giving you the article.
