Sounds like a good time to be a VPN provider.

Probably trying to paint a narrative that Zelensky is undemocratic and corrupt, which some people in the US might believe.

I wonder how many people actually have a problem with this. Very few I’d suspect. Zelensky still seems popular within Ukraine, and I think most would agree that this isn’t a good time for a change in leadership. Plus elections are expensive and nobody in the occupied space would be able to vote. Yeah I think this was the right call.

Beyond what everyone else has said, it has already been shown that LLMs have a chance of regurgitating training data, which means that someone’s personal data could get returned in a Bing Chat query.

Done the third

Right? I don’t know anything about Welder’s Eye, but I know ultraviolet light is invisible to humans, so I’d imagine that most people present wouldn’t notice anything wrong until hours later. Once you know this can happen, you just have to trust that all the places you go aren’t putting your health at risk. Insane.

Hold on, the kid from Home Alone works for Facebook now?

ReVanced is by far one of the best solutions.

Nope, that’s not what uBlock is saying. YouTube rolls out new adblock detection several times a day. uBlock can’t stop it instantly, it takes time for the devs to adjust their code. So for a few hours, YouTube’s detection works. If you haven’t been caught yet, then it means you’ve been lucky to get the rollout after uBlock already had a fix. Some of us aren’t that lucky. Last week, I got an early rollout several hours before uBlock had a patch. Turned off all my extensions, used default uBlock settings, all their suggestions, had no effect. A few hours later, uBlock had a fix and I didn’t see YouTube’s block anymore.

A couple years ago, Apple announced a program to let people buy replacement parts for their devices just as Congress was talking about right to repair. The program ended up having tons of limitations: very small part selection, and prices identical to Apple’s own repair prices, etc. It was clear that this was an attempt to make it seem like they allowed end-user repair, while doing as much as possible to prevent it. Apple still uses software pairing so that you can’t use working components from donor devices. You can’t swap the camera module between two identical iPhones without getting errors, and this can only be fixed by getting Apple’s help. They are going out of their way to stop independent repair, and have been for some time.

So what’s the catch this time? I suspect it’s probably more software restrictions. Currently, nobody can sell aftermarket parts for most phones, so any replacement parts need to come from Apple (and with Apple’s restrictions). I’d want to see legislation to ban software locks and enable third parties to make replacement parts for phones.

So I guess it’s actually pretty funny when you do the math.

I believe Ublock has patched this now, you can update to the newest version and reset the extension and it should work.

Tyler McVicker talks about this in one of his more recent videos, from the last week or so. IIRC, the hardware is nearly identical to Steam Deck, but slightly faster so it can handle higher resolutions.

Watch SadlyItsBradley and TylerMcVicker on YouTube, these are the guys who actually datamine SteamVR and SteamOS for themselves. They’re both saying Steam Deck 2 is not currently in development. Valve’s current thing is more likely a console-like machine running slightly more powerful hardware, plus Valve’s upcoming VR headset. A prototype of this console actually showed up in the background of “The Final Hours of Half Life: Alyx”.

According to this article, Starlink satellites are involved in over 1,600 close encounters (within 1 kilometer or 0.6 miles) each week.

That’s not the Musk space debris we should be concerned about. The car is orbiting the Sun between Earth and Mars, extremely unlikely to be a problem for anyone. A needle in a planet full of haystacks.

Starlink, on the other hand, is several hundreds of satellites orbiting in a shell in low Earth orbit. Close calls happen all the time with these.

That would make sense - the fine should be enough to pay for the satellite’s disposal.

All of them!

Linux and Linux distros are generally designed to be hardware-agnostic, and generally works just fine on very old components. I’m currently running the current version of Ubuntu on a used U1 server from ~2013, no issues, no headaches. It just works. Grab any Windows PC from the last 20 years, you won’t have any compatibility issues running most Linux distros, though some distros might expect more performance. Linux Mint is fairly lightweight.

Oh yeah, its absolutely not a huge deal if you already have a chromebook and just want to keep using it. But if I’m buying a new laptop and I know that putting another OS on it will be unnecessarily difficult, I’m just going to pick a different laptop.
