Saw this article from Microslop the other day about their MDASH copilot model competing with Mythos for bug finding/fixing.

And here’s the image they went with for the flowchart of what the AI does… Complete with overlapping text and the worst layout I’ve ever seen.

Zero humans proofed this.

SketchUp has been owned by Trimble for over a decade, but I still think of it as Google SketchUp as well.

Works opposite for me. Cross-eyed versions look correct, and the parallel/wall versions have inverted depth.

Same thing with magic eye images, they’re always inverted, like I’m looking into a mold of what the object is supposed to be.

Tony hawk games were the only other skating games, but they had button-press controls and goofy physics. Skate came out with much more realistic physics and the thumbstick flicking controls that made tricks feel purposeful. I think people who do skate (or wanted to) got pulled in for the realistic skating lines and tricks. There was also still enough over-the-top jumps and tricks to keep younger kids entertained.

This has been the agreed-upon way to do things within the MS umbrella for a while. Not sure why they won’t just allow for setting a higher rate limit.

Each app registration in a tenant gets their own limits. Most backup platforms for an MS tenant have you register 4-10 apps so it can parallelize the backup load without getting rate limited.

Nifty thing is you absolutely can do that if you’re using SharePoint shortcuts in OneDrive instead of SharePoint library syncing.

You can’t use both syncing and shortcuts at the same time though. Syncing libraries came first, so it’s typically what is already setup and is kind of a pain to transfer a whole org away from.

Pretty sure most hosting platforms have egress costs on their cheaper VM instances.

I know Google cloud charges for bandwidth to AUS, and Oracle is 10TB of egress per month before charging (which I think is the most generous of free/cheap hosting platforms).

To be fair, I wiped out the custom CSS with RES when I was on there.

Couldn’t stand every subreddit thinking it was cute to change random styling for no reason. It was like the old custom myspace page days.

Pretty sure Rockstar allows community servers to disable the anti-cheat as well, just like single player.

The GTA RP community at this point is a considerable part of why people are still playing GTA.

Hawaii hasn’t had plastic bags for almost a decade at this point. Styrofoam takeout containers have also been banned since around COVID.

Some stores let you buy a paper bag for a few cents, otherwise it’s reusable bags you bring. Takeout containers have all transitioned to cardboard or PLA containers.

Some states won’t register kei trucks. They aren’t fast enough for freeway use or something like that.

Part of the point behind Ventoy is that you don’t need to prepare the USB to be bootable. You can just copy/paste the whole iso into Ventoy and it will be bootable. New release comes out? Just copy it onto your USB drive. Don’t even need to remove the old version of you don’t want to.

Makes things much easier in the tech world for having a single USB with 50+ bootable tools and installers on there like with MediCat (which uses Ventoy as a base).

Only thing I’ve had issues with booting from Ventoy is the ProxMox install iso. Everything else has worked first try.

Odd that you can see exactly in that tweet where his staffer stopped writing and handed the phone over to Donnie.

Locking a company out of their systems isn’t the most lucrative part of ransomware anymore. Data exfiltration and threatening to release the data to the highest bidder is now the norm.

Ransomware also typically sits on a system doing nothing for ~6 weeks before ever starting to encrypt and upload data. Even if companies have backups to restore from, they need to choose whether they’re going to restore entire machines quickly and risk still having the ransomware on the restored machine. Or they can take the long a painful route of spinning up new machines, then restoring just the data itself to individual apps/services to ensure you don’t still have ransomware after the restore.

This is actually the worst type of end-user.

Doesn’t make a ticket or notify anyone that there is a problem and then proceeds to try and fix it themselves incorrectly. When it does become a ticket, they won’t remember exactly what steps they took to troubleshoot and will waste 5x as much time from support staff trying to fix it than if they just didn’t touch it in the first place.

Guaranteed didn’t wipe the machine from the built in reset/recovery screen and instead used a windows installer that was created on a different computer and doesn’t have the correct network drivers in the image.

iPhone still can’t report the RSSI of a wireless network. Until they make that work, anyone who works in it/tech has to carry a different device to test wireless networks.

The wireless hardware is in the phone. Just let me use it.

Fr, I would call every single one of those a “crossover” before I called them station wagons.

That Volvo v60 is the closest thing to a modern station wagon. If it doesn’t have 3 big side windows from front to back, it shouldn’t be called a station wagon.

GrayJay doesn’t cast to Chromecast, it uses F-Cast instead which isn’t on every platform.

+1 for Mikrotik.

Get one of their routers that have an Arm or x86 processor and you can run PiHole and a DDNS updater on there as containers. Wireguard support (client and server) is built in.

Even their cheapest hardware that runs routerOS has access to all the same features as their enterprise level gear.

The directed scope of the bill is going to do the same thing to TikTok that legislation did to Juul.

If you target Juul with legal repercussions for all their flavored vapes, then only Juul stops selling flavored pods. Now a million other disposable vape companies fill the void with flavored vapes that are worse for the ecosystem.

Targeting TikTok will just lead to another foreign data-harvesting social media app popping up to fill its place.
