> 15 minutes sifting through clickbait sites The reason people like Kagi is that it doesn't show these (anywhere near as much), the top result has the answer

probably the easiest way would be to buy an amazon gift card in cash and deliver it to a locker/shop for pickup, although you'd likely still need to link it to a phone number

scale is important here - maybe a better analogy is setting up a paid Spotify clone with all the music sourced from torrents with some slight distortion effect added

They're very expensive, but I've heard good things about Dasung's e-ink monitors for this purpose

I used a copy of (desktop) Vector Magic several years ago - it's almost certainly not worth the purchase price today (and better software may already exist), but it did very reliab…

My understanding was that GPT4 evaluation appeared to specifically favour text that GPT4 would generate itself (leading to some bias towards gpt-based fine-tunes), although I can't…

About a year ago I made a little wear os app to track the upcoming departures at the station near me - it was suprisingly useful (especially at big stations - sometimes you can mak…

To my understanding, there are ways of wiring a USB-C cable such that only four contacts are active, and behave as a USB 2 cable? (although you can only do USB 2 charging over it, …

I'm not quite sure what you mean here - English Wikipedia is ~60GB, and there are definitely models trained on Wikipedia that are less than 60GB (eg: Llama 7B), but that's a lossy …

If you also explicitly mentioned the salt used (as bear appear to have done?), this just becomes a matter of testing 4 billion options and seeing which matches

> The IANA is not in the business of deciding what is and what is not a country. The selection of the ISO 3166 list as a basis for country code top-level domain names was made with…

are you sure? Wikipedia describes both as being country code tlds, and both have an official ISO 3166-1 code that matches their domain.

If the "correct" date encoding is 2018-03-14, is 14-03-2018 not one inversion instead of three?

the distribution method for this particular attack was a Google search ad

Likely by means of reverse-engineered APIs from smart TVs (or similar) with limited capability to provide integrity, although I'm sure there are steps Google can take to make that …

I wonder if there are attacks based on RF emissions along a cable to get the sound

As far as I can tell it's still free for relatively low request rates, but you need to register an account/get an app id from them (I've been doing some testing with it recently as…

to summarise this - in practice, a person earning £50,270 under 1257L is paying 24% of their income as tax. Ever £1 they earn above this value is taxed at 40% up to £125k (although…

Can you provide an example of this for an employee of a company? I can't figure out a way of making that the case - even inside the "60%" (in relative terms) band - at £125k your a…

Perhaps on desktop, but (for example) an iPhone user on Instagram has no easy way to avoid being advertised to

Google might cache further up the chain, which could help

Historically there have been restrictions on key size (and bad algorithms) - to my knowledge, neither is currently the case: there is no known way to break a 2048-bit RSA key (alth…
