I agree that the gestures feel great (pretty much the only good part about this mouse imo), but why not just use a track pad instead?

Here’s mine, that works outside of tech:

It’s a great source for second opinions.

Say you want to make a CV, but you don’t know where to even begin. You could give it a description of what you’ve been doing and ask it to help you figure out what jobs fit the skillset and how to present your skills better.

It’s a good tool for such rough estimations that give you ground to improve upon.

This works well for planning or making up documentation. Saves a lot of time, with minimal impact to quality, because you’re not mindlessly copying or believing the output.

I’m also considering it for assisting me in learning Japanese. Just enough to be able to read in it. We’ll see how it does.

UPD: as of right now, the access isn’t blocked in any way.

It is still unclear whether or not the block was intentional, Nvidia gave no comments.

Minor correction: key rate is 19%, interest rates are higher than that as a result.

Some important info that is missing:

1. Proposed legislation is far from being an actual law. It has only once passed the committee (1st stage out of 5), after which got sent to be re-written. Now it’s at pre-1st stage.

2. So far, it has received 2 negative reviews from the administration. First one, from 2022, said it’s redundant, and second one, from 2023 that it’s… still just as redundant as it was.

3. 2 out of 3 authors have removed their signatures since the first negative review.

Basically, there’s little to no chance this would ever pass. Our “crazy printer” may be insane, but it only does so if there is an ass to lick.

I could even link everything if anybody wants me to. Doubt it won’t get removed, but still.

Understandable, ty

To give you some insight, afaik, MacOS is the most horrible to port to because you can’t just compile for it and have to get the hardware first, pay for some sort of key second, and reacquire it every time you fail to port it. All of that is for a very insignificant bit of sales.

Linux, on the other hand, that I can not explain.

Out of curiosity, why do you want bedrock specifically?

In my experience, Java is much less buggy, plays better, and has significantly better modding support with no microtransaction bs. The only compelling reason I see is cross play.

I think you’ll appreciate #ffcc66

That’s fair. I’ve put it there as more of a possible use case rather than something you should be consistently doing.

Although iGPU can perform quite well when given a lot of RAM, afaik.

If games, modding uses a lot. It can go to the point of needing more than 32gb, but rarely so.

Usually, you’d want 64gb or more for things like video editing, 3d modeling, running simulations, LLMs, or virtual machines.

Doesn’t matter with 4.0 drives.

Probably just put it further away from GPU, which should always be in top slot, just to bring temps down a bit. Doesn’t really matter if you don’t, it won’t heat up much from GPU anyway.

I work in IT as PM, you’re pretty close.

Modern technology is glued together NOT random shit that somehow works.

Everything created has been built with a purpose, that’s why it’s not random. However, the longer you go on, the more rigid the architecture becomes, so you start creating workarounds, as doing otherwise takes too much time which you don’t have, because you have a dozen of other more important tasks at hand.

When you glue those solutions together, they work because they’ve been built to work in a specific use case. But it also becomes more convoluted every time, so you really need to dig to fix something you didn’t account for.

Then it becomes so rigid and so convoluted that to fix some issues properly, you’d have to rebuild everything, starting from architecture. And if you can’t make more workarounds to satisfy the demand? You do start all over again.

Mind you, there are two types of under screen fingerprint sensors: optical and ultrasonic.

Optical blasts the finger with light and forms a 2d scan. It’s pretty slow and arguably worse than conventional (capacitive) scanner on the back of the phone.

Ultrasonic, however, because it uses sound waves, maps a 3d scan. It is significantly faster than conventional scanner, and it also doesn’t care about your fingers being wet.

Ultrasonic sensor only requires a quick tap to unlock the phone. It’s actually really convenient to use, I like those. I’d take the capacitive sensor over optical one, though.

980 pros are fine. You just need to update the firmware. Otherwise, there’s a small risk it’s one of the older batches that degraded quickly.

My personal recommendation would be either SN850X, SN770, or 990 pro if you’re feeling fancy. Unless you need a drive for something very specific, you’ll be happy with any of the bunch.

Should you bother with PCIe 5.0? Not really. The difference is barely noticeable. It’s like with monitors, big difference between 60hz and 120hz, but very small between 120hz and 240hz. Plus, you’re not reading and writing lots of data every second of using the PC.

Negotiations happen when one or, more likely, two sides don’t see a way to improve their positions with military force.

The rumors you’re speaking of are a direct consequence of Russia being an autocracy. When you have a country whose ruler doesn’t leave on their own (a dictator), people start speculating on when he’s going to die. These rumors have been going around for about a decade, I believe, and are pretty much meaningless.

Now, about “securing a legacy.” I think it’s much more trivial than that. Invading Ukraine was a good way to secure presidency for the next 1-2 terms and to eradicate opposition within the country. If that’s the case, then, in a sense, he got what he wanted, although he likely also expected the war to be short and victorious (judging by the state media narrative at the time). That didn’t happen. And now there are other issues at hand for him.

I look into those regularly. Those are credible sources that are often used by our scientists, but you have to be very careful with statistics during war periods.

What do you think the majority of people hear when asked, “Do you support actions of Russian military in Ukraine?”. They hear, “Are you a traitor?” and answer accordingly. The majority (4 out of 5, I believe, if not more) refuse to answer at all. So, it’s not exactly representative.

What we look at instead is questions that are not this direct. Such as “Do you think Russia should continue or start peace talks?”. The majority (58%) is for peace talks. This number has increased since September 2022 by 10%, whilst the number of pro-war people decreased from 44% to 34%. Their quality also changed. For “absolutely should start peace talks” went from 21% (out of all votes) up to 26%, whilst for “absolutely should continue military actions” went from 29% down to 21%.

The longer things continue, the less support Russia’s government has. That’s what can be said for certain. The other conclusion we can derive is that war isn’t popular.

Edit: Oh, and the youth, 67% of the youth (18-24) is for peace talks, 23% pro-war. 65% for ages 25-39, only 25% pro-war.

The vast majority of pro-war people are elderly. Can you guess who also watches the TV the most? And who the TV is controlled by?

For the full picture, I’ll also add “they started it, so it’s their responsibility, we had no choice in it” This phrase explains the whole mentality of Russians very well.

The government claims it’s Google’s hardware getting outdated. Google says that’s bs.

I think that it’s convenient how they’re telling that to us right before throttling YouTube only with certain providers (and seems to be with only certain regions as well).

Can’t the same be said about what we have right now, though?

No system is flawless, but you’d be surprised the lengths people will go to uphold the ones that work.

The reason why people are struggling with one tag may also be exactly because it’s only one tag.

It’s difficult to categorize gray as black or white, after all.

Imo, the real issue is how not to go overboard, adding more and more tags, and keeping things easy to filter.

It used to be subscription only back in the days.
