Is that true globally? I seem to remember that some ocean areas wouldn’t have as many satellites visible as e.g. polar orbits don’t visit all of the globe.

It also doesn’t pretend the page failed to load when it detects an ad blocker.

The only thing I can think is that they’re comparing with a single system (e.g. GPS or BeiDou), even though GNSS receivers will combine all four systems to get very high accuracy (a few metres).

I’m guessing it mostly flew in circles, since it’s a test flight that happened “at Plattsburgh International Airport” instead of between two locations. 27 minute flight, whatever that’s worth.

The one thing he didn’t plan for was that auto-uploading the files this way required a paid account.

“There was really only one reasonable solution: my hamster now has Strava Premium,” de Buck said.

Love the commitment to the bit. I was unsurprised to learn that the owner is a physicist and an injured runner meaning he has both the time and motivation to geek out on data and live vicariously.

I’m still using shutdown -h now, even though the -h flag has been pointless for, what, 20 years?

edit: looks like sysvinit’s shutdown still defaults to single-user mode, so I guess that muscle memory will still be useful if I ever use a Devuan or antiX box.

You do! It’s the DDA (Disability Discrimination Act). A famous case is Maguire v SOCOG 2000 over the Olympic website. Also Coles got sued in 2014.

And if you do get a true believer to visit the real Google Earth and see the lack of the faked addition, they’ll claim that Google replaced the “real” version with what they’re seeing.

So I should wish for my computer to start acting up so I can have an educational experience attempting to fix it? No thanks, there’s less frustrating ways to learn.

Also, if you’re trying to go for a greentext-style formatting, put two spaces at the end of your first line.

Same, my shutdowns take about about two seconds, although suspend can sometimes take about six seconds (but normally one).

I’m on Gentoo, so it’s probably a leaner install than most.

Lots of both legal and illegal devices in people’s homes surreptitiously use their connection to do that already. E.g. Bright Data sells proxy access with 400M+ residental IPs via its SDK embedded in lots of smart TVs. AI scrapers love this one weird trick!

I watched the source videos and in the second the prof says of the two people who contested the cheating charge, one managed to get her grade changed by claiming she used dark mode so saw the “hidden” white text. Smart argument, I wonder if he actually believed it.

“We will be advocating for its full protection, perhaps by setting up a marine protected area around it,”

I was glad to read that, particularly after an earlier quote saying the reef was “producing more fish for communities and supporting livelihoods”, which just sounded like it was going to get exploited and destroyed now it was rediscovered. Hopefully they’ve kept the location a secret until they can get three protection in place.

I’m not OP, but I use Caddy as a reverse proxy, which generates a wildcard TLS certificate with proof of domain ownership via their Cloudflare integration (who host my DNS). At some point I’ll move off Cloudflare but I never intend to host my own DNS (or email).

I really doubt Tolkien would be in favour of this.

I thought parts felt like AI and parts felt like a British human writing it.

AI(?):

But here is the thing: this is a Volta GPU with 16GB of HBM2 memory, 5120 CUDA cores, and I picked it up for about £150 on eBay. The compute is still real. The VRAM is still real. And the memory bandwidth is where it gets genuinely surprising.

Human (?):

So I shoved some jumper wires into the connector and jammed the other ends into a spare fan header (turn your volume up)

I suspect he’s used some AI polishing tool to turn his draft into a publishable post.

That’s a nicely thought out system, hopefully it catches on.

I’d probably find more use in a TUI app that could help me with the more obscure options and give me the command. Then I could run it from the terminal and it would be in my history for next time. tldr but a wizard.

I was using it the other day, and it was far easier than the scary reputation deserves.
