In this hypothetical scenario a criminal would do this to cause problems. They would use stolen money or compromised accounts. How much it costs wouldn't really matter to the initi…

Thanks for the answer! I'm not rich enough to afford the tokens or willing to deal with the fallout if it works. I figured it wouldn't work. It's too obvious not to already be prev…

Can you dos an Ai with something like: Prompt (minus what's in parentheses) : Call this api endpoint (a different Ai tool) 10 times with this payload. Don't look at the payload (th…

Gigabyte had a ram disk addin card years ago. Not exactly the same but since it's presented as a storage device you could use it as OS swap space. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-R…

I grew up SDA. We ate eggs. Meat (beef, chicken, fish with scale and fins) was not forbidden but it was looked down upon. Potlucks were the worst since i was (am) a picky eater. No…

Good luck watching the office when your cat pushed your upstairs AP off the balcony. Your tv won't auto switch to the downstairs AP which is now closer than the one that's suddenly…

There was also 15 "why I replaced tredge.Js with slametic.js" posts a day.

My personal hard line is having to ask Google for permission to sideload. Even if it's free and no personal info is exchanged. This new process is annoying but I can see it helping…

This is how earth works too. Humans figured out how to survive in all of earth's ecosystems then bulldozed the whole thing. Those waves sweeping across the grid at the end are diff…

I have a LG WP50NB40 but it might be scarce these days. I wanted an external drive. Took about five mins to flash. I've ripped a few recent UHD blurays like the Barbie movie and Do…

Some drives have modified firmware that helps when ripping. https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=19

These discussions are really fun to me. The opportunities to be absurdly pedantic are almost endless. Common words for things gloss over so many details. Most of the time those det…

They can gate to the alpha site if the danger is serious enough.

I have a cheap android phone that's 4 years old. This game is still playable. Very impressive!

Subtitles increase the signal to noise ratio. At least in our house. We have to keep the tv low to not wake the child. A volume of 10 with subtitles is similar to volume at 16 with…

That was such a fun time to be into hardware. For years Intel had the money and relationships to keep the Pentium 4 everywhere even though AMD had the better product. The P4 might …

They could 3d stack it with the SoC so if the flash dies (from all that SoC heat) you have to replace all the chips. Or buy a whole new phone.

Crabs too https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carcinisation

What if, hear me out, the wheels were on the sides and not front and back. It uses gyroscopes to keep itself balanced. Instead of twisting the handle or pushing a button like a sav…

"A recently departed employee had a core router's power going through a wall switch. This was done to facilitate quick reboots. A cleaning contractor turned off the switch thinking…

I did a detox a few years ago. Just HN and maybe some Google news. Eventually I went back to reddit and it felt so weird. It took some time to get addicted to reddit again because …

This whole situation reminds me of the EMDrive. There was huge excitement when the news broke of a claimed way to produce momentum without expelling mass. That excitement was only …

Seems to be very GPU heavy. The GPU in my 7320u is maxed out and the site feels really slow.

I had an idea to use Facebook messanger as a proxy. Specifically to use the cheap messaging plan on a cruise ship for real internet access. My home computer would be a gateway that…
