This is REALLY bad. I'm a massive weather nerd, and I can say with high levels of certainty that both Canadian radars, and the ECCC data platforms are horrible.

And given that severe weather is only increasing, its only a matter of time before people die because of the lack of funding, and early detection.

I want to make it clear: our forecasts being terrible has nothing to do with the people making them. If you give them shit data, they can't make strong predictions. Garbage in, garbage out. Give them the tools they need to do their fucking job.

I'll get off my soapbox now.

In fairness, I’m not sure anyone knows if bay leaves even do anything.

I’m wondering if this is a play for a future bailout. OpenAI knows they are fucked; and instead of just going away like most companies do when they fail, they are embedding themselves in the government to secure a bailout under the guise of a critical defence vendor.

Furthermore, I’m not convinced the researchers and critical personnel will work for a company that does this. I think we’re about to see the biggest jumping of a ship so far in the industry.

I invested in some rechargeable NiMH AAs, and AAAs. Now sometimes I think i prefer some things with old school batteries just because of how convenient it is. Granted, that system wouldn't work well for my headphones, or my phone. But seems just fine for the odd remote control, kitchen gadget or portable lamp.

To be totally honest I'm not sure you can harden jellyfin enough for public Internet exposure without also breaking basic functionality of the platform.

This is why everyone is always pushing so hard for a VPN/Tailnet of some kind. The public internet is a bit to much of a wild west to be exposing arbitrary services to it unless you really know what you're doing.

Key difference, what is called AI in science fiction isn’t the same as the AI we see today. These companies just adopted the term AI from science fiction as a marketing strategy. Not because it’s actually representative.

Some people are now having to clarify AGI, rather than just AI, because the term has got so diluted.

My work actually can't be done on windows :), *NIX only.

This is interesting too, because in theory it would be in the best interest of cloudflare for that to be the general narrative. i.e "Look how many bots there are on the internet, you really need cloud flare" or however they'd advertise that.

This sent me down a rabbit hole where I learned PETA investigated the house. According to Wikipedia, even PETA said “What I found was a bunch of fat, happy and relaxed cats.” https://en.wikipedia.org/...

That article also has another picture of a cat lounging on priceless historical artifacts.

Their legal troubles with the USDA over these cats is an interesting read as well.

Can anyone fill me in on why there is so much hate on AV1? I use it every single day, and it has incredibility strong compression ratios at an equivalent quality even compared to h265.

Are people misusing the tools? I don't get it.

Well that made me squirt gatorade out my nose. Lemming I think is the real anwser. We're all lemmings here.

What is your llm policy when building this? Its a question I unfortunately have to ask with any new project I might bring in nowadays :(

You can poop while playing footsie

I’m mildly interested, given this is based on ungoogled chromium. But like all brand new projects these days, I’m put off by their potentially vibe coded internals.

Because I use a desktop computer.

It's a UI that sits in the terminal (thus TUI). Think htop, or btop; They are often ran from CLI, but offer more of a UI.

Ah, yeah, the kind of cooking our household does is usually pretty strong favour wise (lots of South Asian cooking), it’s probably why neither my wife or I have ever noticed it.

Maybe if when make Italian food we should use it :)

I mean I guess if they distributed movies on thumb drives it would be more convenient. But optical discs are used for a very good reason: they are extremely dense for the price.

Mini should probably start by test driving their cars.

this is S/O, they made an account to say this haha.
