Aww, I was so hoping I'd get another assistant like thing, Google definitely needs more of those.

Why would it? It sees a road in front of itself, the whole car is built + programmed to go by what it sees, as an image.

The car is doing exactly what it is built to do. It just so happens that "safety of road traffic" is not among the things it is built for, and explicitly so.

Of course, if the styrofoam was even mildly damp, the Tesla will be rusting now. 😅

Well the set up is "Some rich fucker was idiot enough to dictate his company should not install LIDAR, no matter how strictly superior it'd be to do so".

So I dunno. We could ask Melon Husk why he set that up, but I doubt he'll reply. All Mark Robers did is observe the effect of the setup of Edolf Muskler. You're right of course in so far that there's not much to the video then, and I faintly remember there was a case a lot of years ago where a Tesla drove into a sky-blue truck because coming up on a crest it expected to only see hill, which matched the color of said truck.

Jesus fucking hell. You really can only partially fault Melon Husk or Trumpeteer for this shit, I mean people seem to actively want to get exploited, hard.

It's like always with these right-wingers: The louder they yell, the more you know they're guilty. In particular any time one of them cries "Protect the children", you should just cut their dick off right then and there.

Other way around. Open Library is part of the internet archive. Given it's also vastly superior in quality and has tools to maintain and administrate the data, I very much prefer it over alternative offerings. If Bookwyrm at least had a curation/maintainence team or support group or something, and not everyone could just nilly-willy add duplicates of existing entries, then I could see more use for it.

But like others have said, it's also a bit of a different use case. If you want to pull data, definitely do it from OL. They're the same source Bookwyrm uses for its main data import, after all.

Considering who is behind it, I just use Open Library. In particular because like you say, their actual data is much more useful.

A vulnerability analyst and prominent member of the infosec industry has blasted Microsoft for refusing to look at

blasted

Absolutely SLAMMED! 😂

I mean there's a solid chance not a single coder now is the same as back when it was removed? It's been quite a while. 😅

Yeah when they removed it there was virtually no comment on it. At the time everybody understood PWAs were just... you might as well use a new window and press F11. It's just window dressing.

I mean I get it, there's some marginal use cases. Sure. And it's nice they're back!

 

Here's a summary of my take on this situation: 🤬

Reminds me of seeing how long it has been (a bit over 4 years) since a good friend of mine was last online in Steam. Died suddenly before christmas. RIP. :'(

 

The big highlights:

  • New DoH/DoL quests in Wachumeqimeqi
  • Inconceivably further Hildibrand adventures!
  • New custom deliveries NPC

Chaotic Alliance raids arrives in one week, on the 24th (which is a weird date for new content, I'll be honest).

 

As we can see, there is a small performance hit with NVIDIA App. However, it’s nowhere close to what has been reported. On our PC system, it’s around 4-6%. And that’s mostly in CPU-bound areas. For instance, in Indiana Jones which is a GPU-bound game with Path Tracing, there isn’t any performance hit at all.

Ridiculous that this was even a discussion.

 

But don't let her hear I said that, she's 12 and obviously the youngest kitten possible! (she's not tiny, the bed is just oversized)

 

Not sure how particulary I think about it.

I kinda agree though because, honestly, I genuinely like prodding at RL-issues in my video games, but if the best the writers can do is some MCU-level shit that I would expect in Forspoken or Fortnite, then I really wish they'd not. It just feels like making fun of transgender people with how terrible the scene's dialogue is (there's a video in the article).

Plus, as the update says, they couldn't even be arsed to search through the previous games for whether this was already talked about.

Sigh.

Still, the game is far better than I expected it to be, so this isn't just a rant, but I wish the dialogue in particular had decent writing behind it, it breaks immersion near-constantly even if the general scene and story were done well.
