If I’m reading this right, yes. Vulkan calls extension, extension translates the call and addresses the GPU directly in PTX.

Makes sense to me, CUDA itself isn’t extremely optimal. It was supposed to be the easy button to get fast parallel code executing on Nvidia GPUs but has mostly failed at both of those objectives.

For optimal you really have to get into the PTX language, which is perhaps a half step above Assembly.

But this really doesn’t help AMD, Intel etc’s position. They still have to do their own extensions and optimization. But would be nice for programmers to be able to consolidate on Vulkan for both ML/Gaming workloads.

It doesn’t. The extensions they’re using are Nvidia specific.

True, we probably will never know for certain, but at the rate of occurrence in our genome sexual violence would have taken place basically constantly over many generations and in many places (and then the offspring raised normally), or community would have taken place constantly over many generations and in many places.

Community is generally regarded by anthropologists as more likely.

Lots of evidence that in many instances Sapiens integrated into their societies and they integrated into ours. The other hominids were never extremely populous (usually existing in small pockets) and yet their genome lives on in statistically significant ways in modern humans. That wouldn’t be the case at the scale it currently is if we always avoided each other or killed each other, even accounting for sexual violence. These peoples in many places became community and family, and eventually that integration (combined with Sapiens sheer numbers and geographic distribution) “wiped them out”.

Now, there’s also plenty of evidence of conflict too, like a cave where we can see Neanderthalis butchered and probably ate Sapiens. But it wasn’t always bad.

Personally I just use Linkwarden. I’ve been meaning to make a PR to get the auto tagging working on PDFs, maybe someday.

You ever seen the dictator warlords constantly wearing miliary gear with too much polish and a thousand made up medals?

That’s why.

I didn’t read that this was for residential connections?

LTT are also a bunch of loonie toon characters cosplaying as techies who lost all their data multiple times to malpractice. I’d hardly uplift them as a banner case.

Aeropress are generally excellent coffee makers well respected by enthusiasts. But this brew is obviously not using a good ratio…

Turns out that bastard was made of microplastics.

Imagine chewing on a thin slice of Styrofoam.

Never underestimate the human capacity for short-sighted laziness.

Writing was on the wall after they lost their Amazon and USPS bids. Their entire model was based on landing fleet contracts.

Super simple, I’ve made several integrations for ntfy this way. The result is less pretty but fully workable.

During the ice age the size of the Laurentide ice sheet was over 4km (2.5 miles) thick and 13m km² (5m miles²)

This is completely irrelevant to the discussion at hand, except it’s another mind-blowingly huge piece of ice.

Ah yes, those pesky ‘laws’ and ‘regulations’ ‘protecting’ the ‘public interest’. Poor Elno and Trump. Always being prosecuted. Wait, persecuted. Yeah.

Unfortunately an heir apparent isn’t readily… Apparent in my eyes. All have tradeoffs. To be fair, Bambu did too but hid it better from most consumers.

Qidi isn’t terrible, and they have a decent track record. Their use of klipper is a big plus as well. But multi material is still a promise with no release or reviews, and they have had some duds in their history.

Prusa is an obvious option, and previously wore the crown. They’re a good bit more expensive, but perhaps that’s the cost of a highly ethical company that is deeply invested in the community. MMU is well understood and works great, but isn’t integrated in their latest printers yet.

Voron is amazing but absolutely still not for beginners. Besides that they lack for absolutely nothing. Some kits are approaching the user friendliness of pre built, but care and feeding is generally a more technical endeavor.

Creality is a good place to start generally, but lacks for features.

Long story short, if a friend approached me and demanded a recommendation, I’d push a casual user to Qidi, a demanding user to a Prusa, and a tinkerer to a Creality with the understanding I’ll be printing voron parts in a year or two

You continue to post responses to my evidence, but seem to refuse to engage with that evidence in any meaningful way.

Further, your posts are becoming more and more pedantic, insulting, and condescending.

I can tell you’re not invested in a respectful discussion, but rather in a platform for your ranting.

I’ll leave you to it and won’t respond further.

Last time he had opposition inside his party. Powerful people who didn’t want to rock the boat, the 'old guard’s. He had a split supreme court. He had a pandemic that slowed and in many ways prevented his plans.

Well, unfortunately, those old guard conservatives have largely been purged. The supreme court has been packed. And while pandemics are not entirely common, people have been lulled into a false sense of security and are unlikely to respond the same.

I don’t expect us to lose our vote. But I do expect voter suppression to escalate dramatically.

I don’t expect ethic cleansing, but I expect a lot of racial violence and escalating racial tensions.

I don’t expect world war, but I do expect a massive erosion of global diplomacy and many minor conflicts.

Most of the people who voted for him are largely brainwashed and uninformed or misinformed. Often times they’re scared or mistrusting rather than hateful.

I don’t call them Nazi’s, and I sincerely hope we can bring many of them back into reality.

But anyone who has paid attention to his rhetoric, his plans, his platform and still voted for it. Well there’s a word for people who supported the Nazi party in Germany but didn’t support the war or the ethnic cleansing. Nazis. They were called Nazis.

Trump literally brags about studying Hitlers speeches. His father was a well known Nazi sympathizer.

Trump often uses Nazi rhetoric and sologans. The examples of these are extremely numerous and no other broadly supported American politician has been caught as often, all but assuring dog-whistling.

Neo-Nazis openly back Trump and are in his inner circle. They’ve been caught with swastika flags and tattoos, SS tattoos, 88 tattoos, often ending merchandise on Trump’s own websites with $X.88, lifting their arms in a Sig Heil at rallies, etc etc etc etc.

Trump has been asked to condemn his Neo-Nazi supporters and their racial violence, and he refuses.

If it quacks like a Nazi, acts like a Nazi, and literally claims to be a Nazi- we should call it a Nazi.
