That’s not true. The way their streaming works is basically a Playlist of shorter fragments. They can easily insert their own fragments without obvious visual tells if they don’t alter other elements of the page to indicate that an ad is playing.

Don’t worry, it’s fine, there’s nothing inherently wrong with running stateful workload in a container.

You should really back that up with arguments as I don’t think a lot of people would agree with you.

MRIs would suck though

Not all algorithms are AI

Left out the next paragraph:

Overall, we rate Raw Story Left Biased based on story selection and editorial positions that usually favor the left. We also rate them High for factual reporting due to proper sourcing of information and promptly correcting any false or misleading reports.

I was wondering why there were so many comments on a Lemmy post of a Linux kernel minor release…

I highly recommend reading the Github thread as this is not at all an accurate representation. These features you’re talking about are off by default. Removing them from the existing package is just breaking existing users. There’s already a report from a user who can’t access their passwords because yubikey support was suddenly removed. You don’t do that to users just because you suddenly develop an opinion as a package maintainer that you feel is important. There was no dialogue, no consideration and a very rude, dismissive attitude of Julian.

I mean, they never stopped, did they? This is what chip binning is and for chips, it makes a lot of economical and even ecological sense (since a chip where the yield is such that only 6/8 cores function properly can be sold as a lower-tier product without issue instead of being scrapped, for example)

It’s also what made overclocking so popular.

Unless you and GP are referring to something else, of course. Wouldn’t put it past Intel to be nefarious 😅

Of course it will, cloudflare is in front of it, they can definitely handje this traffic as long as itsfoss bothers to set correct caching headers for cloudflare to use. That’s the entire point of cloudflare…

Yes, but this way demand on instances scales with user count and aliows smaller instances to exist. Otherwise an errant toot on a small instance that suddenly gets popular will instantly drag that smaller instance down.

They had this one ready to go, huh?

As much as people like to delve into conspiratorial gossiping, making swooping statements about how Google and Amazon work together, there’s often much simpler and more reasonable explanations.

For one, you are one of billions of people browsing both these sites today, it’s bound to happen to some of you.

But what prompted you to look up the horses stuff? Sometimes it’s an article, a social media post (reddit and Lemmy count), a radio segment, etc. That often leads a group of people to look up the same stuff en-masse.

Its also possible that you’ve visited other sites about horses that have put you in that cohort, where manufacturers have placed their own tracking pixels whose info they can supply to Amazon for targeting.

The reason why a Google / Amazon collaboration seems so unlikely is that they are competing. Not just at large, but in this specific case. Those recommendations you see on Amazon are ads too. People pay for them, and use specific targeting rules to find people to click on them. This is what both Amazon and Google sell, access to specific eyeballs (eg. males in their late 30’s who have once shown interest in motorsports). This is their secret sauce. They’d be crazy to allow that information to flow to a competitor with their own ad platform.

I know this goes against the grain here, so feel free to downvote, but keep in mind that conjecture and wildly inaccurate gossip about what these giant companies do often muddies the waters and makes it much harder to attack them on the shady and downright evil stuff that they do do.

Either you misunderstand or the person you are responding to is. If you retroactively add a license to the current state of the code (for example by committing a new LICENSE file and adding the new license to the top of each file), or course that applies to the entire state of that code as of that commit. What is more difficult is that earlier commits won’t have that license explicitly unless you rewrite git history to make that happen (which is possible but tedious).

You can always relicense code you own the rights to. You can even dual license it, or continue to use it commercially in terms contradicting the license you open sourced it as, as long as you have the permission of every contributor.

The idea that a license added would only apply to code added after the license change is very funny.

Used to be Sketchup, not sure if that’s still around for free. Used for a lot of architectural stuff and somewhat beginner friendly.

Me personally I’d use Blender, but that seemingly requires you to learn how to model donuts with sprinkles first…

I always wondered what would happen if an army of accountants took over an engineering-heavy company and just gutted the engineering culture for profit…

It’s more that your phone has one accidentally registered you typing it capitalized and remembered it as a “name”, deleting that suggestion allows it to reverts to the non-capitalized version.

Long press on the wrong suggestion usually gives you an option to delete it from the dictionary.

It’s the beauty of the fediverse
