You could compare it to Windows vs. Linux in a sense. 3ds Max has decades of legacy plugin/SDK compatibility baggage, lots of commercial and contractual obligations with business/enterprise customers... and Blender has none of tho

You have to add keys under: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceInstall\Restrictions The keys I have right now are all REG_SZ (strings), and in order of "1" through "5", are: --- 1. SWC\

It's maddening that they force you to tweak with the URLs just so you can feed people a link that works for them though

You know what I'd love to have? This running on my Android smartphone. Google's speech services are garbage and they LOVE to cut me off mid-sentence for no reason, well over half the time. It's maddening.

The same thing is happening on the Android side. If you've made a game, it doesn't matter how high quality it is, how many awards it has won, etc. The only thing that matters is that it's live service, that it doesn't &q

Sure, but that's not YouTube. That's Instagram. He says so at 1:30. YouTube is not applying any "face filters" or anything of the sort. They did however experiment with AI upscaling the entire image which is giving the

"Making AI edits to videos" strikes me as as bit of an exaggeration; it might lead you to think they're actually editing videos rather than simply... post-processing them[1]. That being said, I don't believe they shoul

AV1 is the king of ultra-low bitrates, but as you go higher — and not even that much higher — HEVC becomes just as good, if not more. Publicly-available AV1 encoders (still) have a tendency to over-flatten anything that is low-contrast enou

I'd love to watch Netflix AV1 streams but they just straight up don't serve it to my smart TV or my Windows computers despite hardware acceleration support. The only way I can get them to serve me an AV1 stream is if I block &quot

I can't say I understand why HEVC support being disabled would "prevent background blurring", especially because 1) the blur has nothing to do with HW decode (not even in weird unknown parts of the MPEG-4 specs like video obj

If they realize the value of "sandboxing" something so insecure they should also be making it really easy for you to do the same with any app, or set of apps...

Technically not lying if this is NSA (non-standalone) 5G. The 5G band just comes on as an additional aggregated band. The icon just shows up because the tower is capable of supplying the band. Really the bigger problem is that there's

-140 dBm is far beyond no coverage, yeah. -120 dBm is pretty much when LTE stops working (sometimes it can painfully stretch to -123 to -125 but usually not because of noise etc)

It should be noted that most of EDF's massive losses are due to the ARENH. The European Union insists that EDF must sell energy at very discounted prices, so that third-party "providers" can make an entry on the energy market

I'm sure the court could have gotten him on other charges, but they went with the absolutely 100% safe one rather than the other 99% safe ones. Sarkozy and all of his billionaire media allies are already trying their hardest to undermi

Well, it's a bit off-topic, but yes, Google is demonstrably killing the fabric of the Internet. Ever since they introduced the info box & knowledge graph, pretty much every change they've introduced is geared towards one goal:

I would love for my phone keyboard (Swiftkey) to use a locally-running Voxtral for speech-to-text (bonus points if it can use the NPU of the Snapdragon SoC). The voice recognition capabilities of Google Speech Services, which is what the mi
