while dst is a dumb idea, it never caused any noticeable problem with my kids which are now healthy, happy and well functioning adults. if you tell us a bit more about your traumatic experience you might receive free internet advice from random strangers about what you have been doing wrong. parenting is an important job to get right.
When under sanctions, instead of acknowledging reality, the communist party tells the companies to not buy sanctioned goods.
you need to keep up.
trump explicitly proposed an exception to sanctions to allow h20 chips to be sold to china a while ago, so he could get a deal with nvidia. nvidia wasn't enthusiastic, and china promptly suggested companies to decline the offer, and has now just reiterated that, all of which strongly suggests that they don't really depend on those chips anymore.
btw, china has no problem with "admitting the reality" of us sanctions. they tend to hurt the us more than them anyway, and when they don't they have several ways to hit back which is why trump has backed off several times.
in other flashing news, china hasn't been communist for decades.
Of course the useful bots parrot such propaganda to the world
guess who has having problems with reality here
pretend that they care and plausible deniability will help with suits.
then again it is a hard problem with difficult technical solution.
*looks at parents*
What's the deal with UE5 anyhow?
it's complicated. ue5 introduced new tech that replaced many old tricks and greatly simplified development. you just throw stuff in and it works like magic: dynamic lights, shadows and reflections, high quality textures, unlimited polygons, automatic asset streaming
at least that's what i got from this analysis: https://www.youtube.com/watch?..., i haven't used ue5 myself in any serious way, and i'm not into aaa hype titles anyway (and not because of performance, but because i tend to find them bland, unoriginal and dull).
well, after saying this he hopefully has a premium ass to shove his premium game in, what a premium idiot even for ceo standards
the moral of the story hasn't changed: never ever buy any aaa game on launch, kids, it will save you a lot of pointless tears.
The next question is, how much more of this is going on that we'll hear about in another decade or so and have to hear the same apologies?
the only reason "we" have an apparent democracy is that the whole of media is owned and compromised. a few fringe alternative sources are closely monitored, but allowed to exist because there is genuine, though very limited and incosequential, demand in society that would be counterproductive to curtail completely. everything is under control.
it's indeed weird, they're throwing money around like crazy for the training race, why would they bother with even a 200% cost increase for storage? not to mention that ssd is cheaper energy wise in the long run.
i have not looked at the figures, but maybe the increased production times have to do with production capacity or supply chain problems?
social engineering is way cheaper than state of the art cybersecurity, these guys can make good money with the low hanging fruit but don't have the huge amount of money and insider information that intelligence services have. given enough of that all phones can be hacked, and are actually being hacked.
if it's good enough for a fluff article in the "technology" section of msm, it's good enough for
As in: there's bound to be 1/4 a position somewhere to give to an admin to set up and run their email server.
how does running your own email server work out when it is shut off from the network, which authorities have ample margin to do without even a court order, and is the equivalent of what was the case here? bullying proton to suspend an account is just as easy as bullying an isp to block your email server's ip.
running your own email server might help with privacy, but will not guarantee access. only anonymity will do, given you're able of staying under the radar while still being able to reach a sensible number of contacts, and that's very hard without strongly disciplined cooperation from those contacts, and setting up such a network is far, far more involved than spinning up a mailserver.
Correction: a parliamentary vote will be necessary only if the proposal requires new legislation, not if the proposal only modifies existing ordinances without changing the laws they are based upon. I'm not sure which is the case here.
interesting, something along those lines was my thinking. it is clear that this is still a working document and ratification doesn't make sense yet, so either there is a reasonable assumption that it will circumvent it or the wording in tfa would be very poor or misleading.
from a glance at the documents it indeed appears that these are intended as ordinance changes for the postal and telecommunication services, which considering the implications is quite brazen. sadly, i can't be bothered to read the whole thing at this time (first they came for the swiss and i couldn't be bothered because i'm no swiss etc
The proposal, which is not subject to parliamentary approval
these people used to hold several referendums a year to ask for every major change. in this one not even the talking puppets will have a say?
Rutte: 1500!!! daddy, you're the best!!!
Von der Leyen: was ist appgoval reiting?
Macron: Mais je suis tres jolie
Starmer: ghhhfssghhhhhfffssss
It's interesting that even if the brain processes colour the same way
i don't think this (paywalled) experiment establishes this with much accuracy. fmri coarsely measures blood flow in selected areas in the brain in response to stimuli, that might show common patterns but that still doesn't reveal much about perception. i would indeed assume that there are general pathways to process different light wavelenghts but there are surely many other variables determining the actual subjective experience: from the availability and configuration of sensors to the intricacies of neural interconnection and memory and ofc cultural factors in a broader sense.
sorry to spoil the fun, but no, i'm not. i'm always sarcastic, that's just a personal inclination, but i meant it. i might be wrong, ofc.
