I feel like they did a somewhat recent update to the downloader which fixed things. I had issues before as well but not anymore. The streaming issue is another matter though :/

I also really treasure that quote. Your visualization really made it hit home again though. It does make me reflect on this piece I wrote 9(!!) years ago though, which hasn't compl…

When buying a new washing machine and dryer, I actually spent hours extra to find models /without/ app requirements last summer. There were so few of them that did what I wanted, a…

I guess I'll take the bait. If it's "pretty clear" that all of these are wins to you, then I think you might be part of the other extreme pole to what you're arguing happens here. …

Although that in itself is a true statement, there is sooo much performance left on the table everywhere.

And Lynch's Dune looks like it does, probably in no small part due to Jodorowsky, Giger and Mobius. I recommend everyone interested in Dune to take a look at Jodorowsky's Dune [0],…

I wonder if that's at all related to different sugars configuration at different temperatures as described by AppliedScience [0]. Maybe there are other substitute sugars out there …

You get to launch Windows games through Steam Proton. It's a no-hassle way to get up and running with gaming on Linux, although many are probably using Wine or Lutrix.

Not a perfect solution, but you could just use Steam to load games from GOG on Linux though. Thereby getting "the best of both worlds". I have yet to stumble upon any major issue d…

I think books are the best medium for learning some things, and probably in some aspects for writing. However I'm worried some countries seem to be throwing the baby out with the b…

I haven't compared image models in a long while, so I don't know the relevant performance metrics. But even a few years ago, you would usually use a pretrained model, and then fine…

I feel like the way Romero and Carmack wanted to make the player "connect" with the game was different than what Tom had in mind (from reading the book). Tom wanted elaborate lore …

"Right now there's this thing where ethics aren't what they used to be. This idea that people are trying to replace the ideas of good and bad, with better or worse." -Dave Chappell…

What gets most foreigners is usually the darkness in the winter, and not the temperature fwiw. It's hard to describe, but many people end up quite depressed.

Just in case you're in the know: I was really really close to trying to spin up something at work using the Max Engine. However, I see that it collects telemetry [1], and we can't …

> I feel like teenagers are not exactly a demographic that never sees targeted ads That is definitely true, but my opinion would be that they need "less ads", and not "more". That'…

There seems to be a focus on something about the brain "calcifying" or people getting stuck in their own pattern over time here. That may be a component, but I think anothet thing …

I didn't know it runs an LLM when you append a "?", but for any Kagi-users out there, you can use the bang: !fgpt $QUERY if you automatically want to jump to an LLM. The !fgpt-bang…

This is the first AI song I've really wanted to keep with me on my phone. If someone knows someone, we need a human performance of this! Encore, encore!

I'm not sure if these books really are what you're looking for, because each of them is a mix of engineering history, and the description of how a group of people end up doing amaz…
