Yeah I don’t know when that started, but it’s absolutely annoying as fuck.

That Nikka whisky is great! I bought a bottle the day after the last US election, killed it in 2 days, and was like shit that was way too much money to kill that fast lol.

Ok, thanks for that clarification. I guess I’m a bit confused as to why a comparison is being drawn between neurons in a neural network and neurons in a biological brain though.

In a neural network, the neuron receives an input, performs a mathematical formula, and returns an output right?

Like you said we have no understanding of what exactly a neuron in the brain is actually doing when it’s fired, and that’s not considering the chemical component of the brain.

I understand why terminology was reused when experts were designing an architecture that was meant to replicate the architecture of the brain. Unfortunately, I feel like that reuse of terminology is making it harder for laypeople to understand what a neural network is and what it is not now that those networks are a part of the zeitgeist thanks to the explosion of LLM’s and stuff.

I am an addict and my addiction is 4k UHD remuxes. When that uncompressed bitrate hits the screen, 👌. My Lawrence of Arabia remux is the largest I have off the top of my head and it’s like 125GB.

When I realized that theaters get DCP’s that are like 2-4 times the bitrate of a Blu-ray disk I died a little inside. I want those.

It’s true that one is based on continuous floats and the other is dynamic peaks

Can you please explain what you’re trying to say here?

🍆 💦

Pretty sure they’re also sunsetting watch together lol

No. You can have control over specific parameters of an SQL query though. Look up insecure direct object reference vulnerabilities.

Consider a website that uses the following URL to access the customer account page, by retrieving information from the back-end database: https://insecure-website.com/customer_account?customer_number=132355 Here, the customer number is used directly as a record index in queries that are performed on the back-end database. If no other controls are in place, an attacker can simply modify the customer_number value, bypassing access controls to view the records of other customers.

Every German person I’ve ever met talks so confidently about shit that you just kinda assume they know what they’re talking about, until they start talking about a domain you’re an expert in and you realize they’re actually kinda dumb but with good vocabulary.

lol. You mean vba macros.

It’s wild to see Chrome going from the browser to use if you had any tech sense whatsoever to being universally derided.

Safari also has it built in. This person is just saying shit to say shit I guess.

I don’t have FDE (BitLocker) enabled on my Windows 11 gaming PC. It sits in my house and has nothing on it but video games and video game related shit. I don’t even have my password manager installed for logging in to Steam, GoG or whatever other launcher. I manually type passwords in from the vault on my phone if the app doesn’t support QR code login like discord. Also I paid for this ridiculous m.2 nvme drive, I’m not going to just give up iops bc i want my game install files encrypted.

I don’t use FDE on my NAS. Again it doesn’t leave my house. I probably should I guess, bc there is some stuff on there that would cause me to have industry certs revoked if they leaked, but idk I don’t. Everything irreplaceable is backed up off site, but the down time it would take to rebuild my pirated media libraries from scratch vs just swapping disks and rebuilding has me leery.

I have FDE enabled on both my MacBooks. They leave the house with me, it seems to make sense.

I don’t use FDE on Linux VMs I create on the MacBooks, the disk is already encrypted.

My iphone doesn’t have the option to not use FDE I don’t think.

I use encrypted rsync backups to store NAS stuff in the cloud. I use a PGP key on my yubikey to further encrypt specific files on my MacBooks as required beyond the general FDE.

I’m like a generation younger than you at least and I’m on the default terminal and tmux train, so I’m saying you’re not out of touch.

I mean if my options were “Roku level ad invasion” and “Let Tim Apple own this ass every time I boot up an Apple TV” I’d be starting my power bottom fiber regimen yesterday, but you do you boo.

Ah. I appreciate the context. Now my confusion is just shifted from Roku to California legislators. I can appreciate future proofing a law, but this seems a bit on the nose.

If you have files with a bunch of different formats and codecs you don’t want to use anything Roku, your direct play options are extremely limited. This becomes almost a hard requirement when dealing with hevc 4K hdr/dv stuff unless you’ve got a server with quicksync or some oomph.

I’m probably going to get a lot of derision for this because it’s Lemmy, but for wide direct play coverage you either want an Nvidia Shield or an Apple TV 4K. I like the Apple TV solution, and everyone in my household is familiar with the UI. The Shield is the only one of the two to support Atmos audio if you have ceiling or upward firing speakers. It’s also not apple if you’re ideologically opposed to owning Apple products.

I’m not surprised you fell back to a Roku box from the built in TV apps, but if you’re going to go for a dedicated streaming box Roku, Firesticks/Firecubes, and Chromecasts should be the last resort due to ads in the experience and codec support.

Super weird. I would assume that olfactory sensors would cost more per TV than Roku would make by collecting the data. Afaik there’s no such thing as electronic olfactory sensors per se anyway. In before labs start buying Roku TVs because they all have gas chromatography machines inside them.

I have an LG GX and have never experienced this. I’d assume the G line and up won’t have this issue, and to my knowledge even the lower tier C models don’t have this issue. A friend of mine recently got a C3 (I think, idk what they’re up to yet, maybe 4? It’s the newest C model) and it doesn’t have this ad issue either.
