    Smart TVs, TV sticks, and a lot of mobile devices will not be capable of decoding AV1 in software in realtime, given their low-spec CPUs. I imagine that Netflix is only serving AV1…

    Live translation is a well solved problem by this point — the translation will update as it goes, so while you may have a mistranslation visible during the sentence, it will correc…

    I have the G1 glasses and unfortunately the microphones are terrible, so the live translation feature barely works. Even if you sit in a quiet room and try to make conditions perfe…

    "she" is absolutely proper English for a ship or boat, with a long history of use continuing into the present day, and many dictionaries also list a definition of "thing, especiall…

    Population density is pretty high in many European inner cities. Most of the cell sites around here are on top of apartment buildings and I doubt they have a genset. Here in centra…
