Great movie. If you haven’t, you should check out Arrival (2016).

who dismissed it as US propaganda.
Do you have a source on that?
Even more, I think it’s basically the only way. Lichess app got removed from vanilla F-Droid because of that.
I think it depends. In my case, I write faster in LaTeX as the formatting is done a lot quicker. Just need to find one template I’ve already used and is aproppiate for the ocassion.
Although being able to take a screenshot and paste it is a huge bonus and time saver in LibreOffice when taking notes in real time.
You can use Flatseat to config the permissions (including files) that Flatpaks have. It has a nice GUI
Your comment doesn’t make sense, since home tools are not precise enough and that is not the manufacter fault. I suggest you read about Metrology
Hey, my SO and I really loved Severance and watch it in my Jellyfin server, which I set up so they can connect from anywhere. I’ll add season 2 the moment it launches. I would be happy to give you acess to it if you want to, just let me know.
I’m very aware of how toxic gaming communities can be, but I don’t see how that refutes my point that Pepe is used with non-hate purposes in the gaming community. Furthermore, I wouldn’t be surprised at all if 90% of the people aren’t aware of Pepe’s relationship with far right, neo-nazis and 4-chan. I still wouldn’t call them any of these words for liking and sharing the frog with the expressive face.
On the other hand, not wanting to deal with people that post/use Pepe in any sort of way is respectable, albeit seems like a giant social bubble to me.
TW: slurs ahead.
This whole thing remins me of “marica” and “maricón”, Spanish words that are used in a few contexts and meanings, the main one bieng “faggot”. Recently, tho, they have increased their popularity in the LGBTQ+ community as a self-describing word, in a “fuck you, homophobics” tone. My point is that dismissing these groups as being too far right over using “maricón” would be devoid of context and interest in others. Note as well I’m not claiming all use of “maricón” is respectable and friendly.
Like the swastika, is not the only use it has. In the gaming/Twitch community, it’s definitely not massively used as a hate symbol.
Try increasing the FOV. Same thing happened to me with Half-Life.
Unrelated, but the other day I read that the main computer for core calculation in Fukushima’s nuclear plant used to run a very old CPU with 4 cores. All calculations are done in each core, and the result must be exactly the same. If one of them was different, they knew there was a bit flip, and can discard that one calculation for that one core.
Yes.
My last experience was around 2 months ago with a driver issue. In the forums, someone linked a solution, and a lot of comments were in the lines of “Seriously? This was already in the newsletter, why are people not reading/subscribed to it. It’s their problem then”. Funnily enough, an actually helpful comment noted that the newsletter solution had a typo that made the solution not work as expected.
Even today, the Arch community is exactly as previously described.
I recently set up a Xbox 360 emulator using Xenia to play all Gears of War games in my PC, and had a lot of fun setting things up (Xenia is way harder to set up than any other emulator I’ve used): patching, tweaking and testing stuff, modding some files, and obviusly playing.
Lots of fun playing, and the games have aged pretty well, IMO.
The reference adds stuff like the author, journal or year, so it can be a showcase for the relevance, importance, how new is it, etc. I still find it useful in cases like the presentation not being followed by a paper, or you add visual aids that are not present in the paper yet are not your own work.
Disagree on 7 and 8
For 7: References and sources are a must, unless everything is your own work. They should not be put at the end of the slides because the public does not have access to your file, so they cannot go back and forth to properly read the source like they can in a paper. The way I do this is simply putting “Source: blablablabla” in a smaller font, so the reader can easily recognize it as a source and ignore it if they want to.
For 8: This greatly improves the public’s ability to ask you questions, as they can just say you “Please go back to slide #X”, instead of having to explain the content of the slide.
Keep in mind these are used in my scientific academic background, perhaps outside of it they are not as important.
A report usually contains somewhat useless information, requires more background in the topic and does not allow for easy to ask questions to the author. Slides, written reports, papers, speech, etc. all serve different purporses.
I would like to add a few more tips, based in my experience in an academic background:
Don’t go back in the presentation to refer to something. If you want to refer to a slide/graphic you already explained, you put the slide/graphic once again, but do not go back several slides.
Use big fonts. Text should be clearly readable in any part of the room you are presenting.
References and sources should be put as a footnote in each slide, not as a big ass slide at the end of the presentation.
Enumerate your slides.
Time and flow quality is just as important -or maybe more- than the visual quality. It is a must to stay behind a 10% error margin of the alocated time. So in a 10 minutes presentation, always stay between 9 and 11 minutes (ideally between 9:30 and 10).
Even then, AMD, Intel and now Apple CPU chips are suspected to be backdored. NIST has been slow to adapt a standard post-quantun E2EE algorithm, with some rumours of self-sabotage mandated by NSA (like they have already done in the past). The Tor network is extremely vulnerable to traffic correlation by big parties.
Encryption theoretically gives you what you describe, but in reality you still need to put a lot of thrust in things like your own hardware.
Apocalypse Now. Damn, what a movie.
