Exactly. When purchasing any modern device I ask myself as to how much a company can screw me if they turn hostile out of nowhere. If I can’t handle that risk, I don’t purchase that product. Not having open source firmware that’s connected to the internet is a huge red flag.
You would think that everybody owning a 3D printer would at least be somewhat of a tinkerer and therefore oppose this. Looking around however I’ve already seen a frustrating amount of people ridiculing the people calling this out. You’re probably right though and the people who don’t care will probably mostly have gathered around Bambu.
If anything I’d say that the lesson to be learned from this should be the exact opposite: No company is safe forever, so you should choose based on how easy it is to switch.
Chaining yourself to a single company all the way from the services you use down to the OS and even the hardware is only making it worse. Particularly when Apple is already aggressively anti-consumer on a lot of fronts.
Why did somebody actively edit out her name?
In this case it was most likely she herself. The original black and white comic has the name, but the colorized version was most likely been taken from her shop (link), which doesn’t feature the name.
I’m however impressed by how utterly the person copying the picture messed up the picture. Not only is the crop completely awful, but they also tried to “restore” the comic by giving it a digital look, over-saturating everything in the process, including the JPEG artifacts of the original photo.
On the other hand, NVIDIA has started to consolidate all these technologies as the NVIDIA DLSS suite a few months ago for some reason.
So it’s DLSS Super Resolution and DLSS Frame Generation, DLSS Ray Reconstruction and so on, with the exception of DLAA. Probably because that would get too stupid even for them.
Ok, I’m intrigued but looking it up there’s apparently a few GitS things in 3D/VR:
I’m guessing you’re talking about the live movie, but now I also want to know how an anime would look like in 3D.
I believe there are some services, including some selfhosted ones, that allow you to quickly create (and later delete) unique aliases.
That said, I was surprised that these dictionary spam attacks don’t really happen all that much, at least based on my own experience. Most of the ambient drive-by spam my server receives targets email addresses belonging to domains I don’t even own. Blocking those and a few Sieve scripts gets rid of 99% of spam for me.
Interestingly, there was one time I received spam to a bogus address belonging to my own domain: A while back, one of my actual email addresses got leaked (thanks Sega) and a few months later that address got copied into another dataset but with a typo, which I assume was caused someone using OCR.
I think the way to go about detecting cheats server-side would be primarily driven by statistics. For example, to counter wallhacks one might track how often a player is already targeting an enemy before they become visible. Or to counter aimbots one could check for humanly impossible amounts of changes in the direction of mouse movement, somewhat similar to how the community found out a bunch of cheaters using slowmo in Trackmania.
Add in a reputation system that actually requires a good amount of playtime to be put into the highest tier of trust for matchmaking and I think one could have a pretty solid system that wouldn’t have to rely on client-side anticheat at all.
But also, in a world where such a law did exist, it would naturally force every third-party to create their contracts in a way that would allow the eventual release of the source code, or lose out on the deal and subsequently, the money.
I’d guess because the same argument could be made for the website you’re on right now. Why use that when we could just use mailing lists instead?
More specifically: Sure, Git is decentral at its core, but all the tooling that has been built around it, like issue tracking, is not. Suggesting to go back to email, even if some projects still use it, isn’t the way to go forward.
I just run some self hosted servers. I most definitely run more than ten services, not few of the consisting of multiple containers. With this change I’d basically hit the limit every time I do maintenance and pull the latest versions of all the images I run.
