Wait, 114°C? Is that safe, especially long term? I guess Intel has margins in place, but I recall their processors having a Tjunction around 100°C

I explicitly talked about the best case scenario, which would have been "one camera pixel is able to retrieve precisely the information of one printed pixel (or several printed pix…

> You should be able to get a few MB on a page easily A few hundred Kb, maybe, but a few MB seem unlikely. If I take the best case scenario (no optical aberration, perfect sensor..…

Not sure I want to use what seems like a fully-closed standard for something as frequent as sharing locations when open alternatives exist.

Also doesn't "blink" nor have what's inside it "disappear" from perception.

Isn't it on their consumer lines only that Intel removed AVX-512? Saphire Rapids is indicated as having support for it. I know that even though you pointed to an EPYC CPU, all Zen4…

Yup. I think it was from Commitstrip. edit: found it. https://www.commitstrip.com/en/2016/08/25/a-very-comprehensi... ?

Well, as explained in some of my other comments, it doesn't seem that effective. Most GPT-generated garbage will probably be GPT-3 based, which doesn't seem to too often trigger as…

While I understand the reasons why the author think it will go that way, I'm not fully convinced: - [in average rich countries in 2030] Fast gigabit internet is cheap and everywher…

Seems to have major biases against who knows what sentence structures. Even without trying to make it say fake, some of my messages and text I write in it are pretty confident I'm …

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32447928 is marked as nearly 100% fake, whereas I can assure you it was written by a human. Maybe I was just unlucky with the comment I tried i…

> Well, repairs are usually warrantied themselves. I don't know if this holds when the issue occurs more than one year after the repair, and has, at first sight, has nothing to do …

Or if you know that you will probably have issues with your computer sooner than later even though you're not rough with it. I did initially not buy it with my current laptop. Some…

Sadly, the fact that it assumes interchanges to be 20 minutes makes it, at least in some cases, far from reality. At least for the local line of train I most often take (in France)…

But then, all usages of SGX, not only DRM, would be compromised easily. I don't know, for instance, if password wallets use it for protecting their data when they are loaded, but t…

Not everyone heard of DRM, and those that haven't have no reason to "research". Not everyone from the remaining checks everything they buy for DRM. Not everyone from the remaining …

I don't know if it has been exploited on the wild, but the subject seemingly interested some enough to find escalations bugs in https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/SafeDisc .

I agree that getting hacked through a browser is a far higher risk. However, the said browser is hopefully running with admin privileges, and if it is needed by the malware, it wil…

At least on Linux, a bug on the kernel module could lead to injection of other kernel modules, packages being installed, core binaries being tampered with, which are not impossible…

Not to mention them saying "if you use AAA games, you may already have such a thing running already so one more won't kill you." whereas, in real life, it increases the odds that a…

Why limit your argument to games? All softwares that are ran without sandbox sadly have this issue. Any software could be malicious, not only games.

Oops, you're right. Thanks for pointing it out. Strangely, I don't to the mistake when going from English to french. Because I'm more used translating "software library" to "biblio…

Wait, they accepted to refund a broken, 7 years old product ? How was this policy not abused to the point of killing the company ?

Quite interesting, did not know things worked like this in the US. In France, from my understanding, there is "Les retours" ("The returns"), a system where libraries have one year …

Wait, wasn't Windows NT ("WNT") a pun on Vax MicroSystems ("VMS") à la "Windows is Better than Vax" since WNT VMS plus 1 at each letter? That's the story In a always heard.
