Specifically I remember team fortress's pyro secondary grenade in QW being just pulses of AOE damage instead of shooting more fire particles that needed tracked, and the soldier nail grenade .. doing something different to not have as many flying objects.
'those scientists' were from Sweden responding to protests over the increasing costs of food due to famine. When looked at from the lens of maximizing calories per dollar, it makes a lot more sense.
Or is this just a way to serialize and deserialization the game state to automatically save the game so it could be reloaded if it closed/crashed without explicitly running a 'save game' function?
On the jump host itself it makes sense though
see https://man.openbsd.org/ssh-keygen.1#KEY_REVOCATION_LISTS for more info
And unlike some other sshd directives that have a 'Command' alternative to specify a command to run instead of reading a file, this one doesn't, so you can't just DIY distribution by having it curl a shared revocation list.
And that's still assuming you end up in a range that is actively attacking your sshd. It's definitely possible but really doesn't seem like a bad tradeoff
That's not the same for not changing an ipv6 address
I disagree. Granted I'm a layman and not a lawyer so I have no clue how the court feels. But I can certainly make very specialized algorithms to produce whatever output I want from whatever input I want, and that shouldn't let me declare any input as infringing on any rights.
For the reducto ad absurdum example: I demand everyone stops using spaces, using the algorithm 'remove a space and add my copyrighted text' it produces an identical copy of my copyrighted text.
For the less absurd example.. if I took any clean model without your copyrighted text, and brute forced prompts and settings until I produced your text, is your model violating the copyright or is my inputs?
otherwise those would just be unknown words, same as asking an artist to do that without any examples.
though I am curious how performance would differ between training on only actual studio Ghibli art, only fan art, or a mix. Maybe the fan art could convey what we expect 'studio Ghibli style' to be even more, whereas actual art from them could have other similarities that that tag conveys.
IMO setting the expectation of 'wont survive a reboot' is more consistent. but even that fails with private tmp files that could be tied to ephemeral units
ssh tunneling alone can be done in so many ways with different environments necessitating which might work. are we talking ssh tun/tap IP tunnels? simple port forwarding? either of the above but with a proxyjump required to get there?
Even then id still rather ensure every device is appropriately firewalled. 'not worrying about it's sounds like a hardened shell with a juicy center. What happens when a device does get compromised and tries to spread to your local network?
Back then there was some value add in having access to native APIs but over time we've just added more and more web APIs to bridge that gap.
in a search field explicitly for hex encoded IDs it shouldn't be
In a generic web search that has to guess if my term was a hex encoded id ('cafe' is but almost certainly isn't intended as one..).. it's less obvious.
in the case of a clear hex encoded id of sufficient length, i would like to know there are zero exact results, but as long as it's still fast I would love some fuzzy matches after in case there was a typo in my term or in the indexed document.
It's only more recently that browsers and other common software stopped validating it though
.. Now if we could get local socket support for talking to your own device and avoid arbitrary port reservation on localhost, that would make me happy.
Kind of in that they were a good enough competitor that AOL bought them and AOL definitely continued to fight.
I don't think they ever publicly integrated them but they did merge the back ends enough that for a while you could just login to AIM with an ICQ UID, and impress all your friends with your cool numeric aim account
But that is rarely true for any privatized infrastructure alternative. There is often direct financial relations through taxation anyways, either tax breaks for the company or outright having the municipality foot the bill(see most stadiums)
Then there is the potential resource usage itself - e.g how much of the land in that city is now dedicate to toll roads that could be free, or in the internet infra case it's often exclusive rights to the poles all of the lines are ran on.
Even if neither of those are true, there's still value in a municipality not relying on potentially a single company for something as important as internet. But that's admittedly a harder sell.
In the end I think the important part is not giving tests more trust than they deserve. If you fix the incorrect code and break a test you should give your change a closer look, but also give the test a closer look before you decide which needs to be fixed.
And yet people reshare and react to screenshots of tweets and similar all the time. The authenticity is only really questioned if it strongly goes against whatever narrative one already believes. And then that ability to fake them also gets used to dismiss legitimate honest information because it could have been faked.
