Sponsorblock's been epic! Props to the coder and the contributors.

Why is Firefox getting involved in ads? 💵? To reduce their dependence on Google's payment for keeping Google as the default search engine?

Real estate investment scam. I wonder if Coffeezilla is working on it.

That Bill Burr clip was 👍. Dogpack has 👍 taste.

Exfat if you wanna use your usb drive on Macos or Linux.

I have Windows so I'm OK with Ntfs.

About 10 years ago, my usb drive was Fat32 by default. I changed it to Ntfs due to Fat32's 4-GB cap. 1080p movies that were 4+ GB were getting more widespread then. I'm using Ntfs till now.

I'm awaiting the day a firm makes a practical quantum computer. I'll be stoked on that day. Idk how folks will write programs for it or if the idea of "program" will apply to it at all. Will it make things faster? Like compiling code or frames per second in gaming?

👍 article. Firebricks may accelerate our transition to sustainable energy.

Was the tablet's touchscreen as responsive as iPad's? What was the operating system? If Windows, I can see how it failed. Previous versions of Windows were mouse-and-keyboard-first. I think Windows 8 was the 1st to truly consider touch and iPados was still better.

Microsoft had an Arm Surface device a few years ago. It had a 💩 chip.

I viewed "let's play" series of Alan Wake 1 and 2. Just wanna share my thoughts re AW2. There are spoilers below.

So much reading. Yes, you can skip a lot of those. Yes, the title is Alan Wake 2 and Wake is a writer. But a gamer who very much dislikes reading may be turned off or think "I may be missing much by skipping most of the reading, so I'll drop this game."

It seems Alice is alive. So she's been living sans Alan for 13 years minimum. Extremely :(. I wanted a :) end for them. I can imagine an AW2 where the year is 2013 instead of 2023, and Alan was able to escape the "dark place" in 2013 and live with Alice happily. The writer (I dislike Sam Lake's writing so I'm not saying Sam Lake) can figure out the plot gymnastics in between to make the game so interesting.

Scratch slew Jaakko Koskela so easyyy. So powerful. He could just slay Anderson, Casey, Cult of the tree and the Fbc at the start.

The Fbc's light arrays placed far from each other outside the sheriff's station were plot convenience.

Anderson aided Wake with writing the end despite Wake inserting Logan and David in the tale. Meh.

Sarah and Barry were sidelined. :(

Sam Lake most likely disliked a fairy-tale :) end for AW2 but don't say that in horror, the hero must pay a price to save his pals (or something like that) like it's a rule.

It's time.com's best 2023 game but it's 👎 for me.

If he did conduct illegal lotteries, what a 💩 way to treat your viewers, many of whom were kids, seemingly. He said something like "The 10th buyer in the next 5 min will win 30000." right? Did those winners get their prizes? If no, it was a scam.

The 💤 deprivation was inhuman. The running thing was cruel.

He's an ex-worker at Jimmy's firm. If everything he said is false, it's an easy defamation lawsuit for Jimmy versus him. He dug his own grave. I think he wasn't dumb to do that. The points he made made sense to me, except the legal stuff. I'm not an attorney. Anyway, we haven't heard Jimmy's side.

I think Dogpack is brave. Jimmy and his attorneys can cook up a worthless lawsuit to hurt Dogpack financially. Jimmy is so rich legal expenses won't be problematic. While Dogpack may have a hard time with legal expenses, I think.

It's like Logan Paul versus Coffeezilla. Logan is so rich; Coffeezilla isn't.

Algebra question (lemmy.world)

I'm thinking re the latest vid of @mindyourdecisions

No need to view his vid. Here's the problem –

Brian has some boxes of paper clips. Some boxes hold 10 clips and some boxes hold 100. He has some paper clips left over. He has 3 more boxes with 100 paper clips than he has boxes with 10 paper clips. He has 2 fewer paper clips left over than he has numbers of boxes with 100 paper clips. What number of paper clips could he have?

  • let x1 be the number of boxes with 10 clips
  • x2 be the number of boxes with 100 clips
  • n be the number of leftover clips

I thought of 100x2 = 10x1 + 300

Is that equation right? Something tells me I shouldn't equate 100x2 to 10x1 plus 300. Something tells me I shouldn't make an equation re number of clips as it isn't explicit in the problem. I'm confused.

 

I googled how to prevent spawning weeds, wood or stones from wrecking scarecrows. I read re paths. But weeds can wreck any floor or path.

I thought of surrounding a scarecrow with hardwood fence. I asked a large language model (llm) if that works. The llm said yes. True?

A scarecrow doesn't need so many resources but I don't wanna remake a scarecrow each time a weed, wood or a stone wrecks it.

It's a long vid. I suggest prepping your fav drink before viewing.

It's re Nvidia's new gpu architecture for ai, NVlink switch, RAS diagnostics and other Nvidia announcements.

Nvidia knows it's the star of the backbone of the current ai boom and seems to be going full steam. I'm hoping for more innovations on tools for ai and gaming in the future.

 

I saw 天地星AI·固定搭配 when participating in a bot match. I googled its meaning in vain. Google translate wasn't much aid too. What does it mean?
