Opera browser used to have P2P file transfers as a short lived feature in ~2010, called Unite. I remember it also had skeuomorphic GUI of a 'fridge' where users could put post-it style notes that could be seen by others. One of ma

My comment was a reflection on discourse of the article here. The US has pulled support for providing further jamming reprogramming but way the article is written clearly was giving readers the impression the systems are US specific and onl

Useful illustrative graphic in that version of the article for remembering the compression rhythm with a Bee Gees' song mnemonic and required depth.

The article is written to give the reader the impression only the US can reprogram the jamming system and the comments seem to mostly be taking it at face value. In the very Forbes article the OP's article cites it links to info about

Regardless of what happens to Chrome per se it's who is involved with pushing for major controversial changes in Chromium that matters. Manifest v3 and Web Integrity API are prominent examples of Google's team shaping how all Chro

There were accounts with as few as 1 (yes, 1) PBKDF2 iterations[1]. Others changed theirs to over 300k but it still ended up only being 5000 in reality[2]. So despite the messaging from LastPass about improving iteration count for existing

Whenever I've tested ChatGPT I've never seen this autocomplete. Does it only conditionally appear if someone is logged into their service? I also only visit under Linux.

Twilio's verification API for instance has this[1] but only for US targets. Though the person in the OP is from the UK. I wonder how many other countries' carriers have non-business caller name lookups. The other aspect would be i

You can run non-module scripts, yes, though not modules. Though it's easy enough to run a caddy local server. It was easier in the past, in earlier caddy versions one could just place the caddy binary in PATH and launch `caddy` from

From what I've read finasteride can cause general psychological adverse events, including suicidal ideation[1], in mostly younger people. Heard someone saying their suicidal thoughts began when taking it and stopped when not, leading t

The Deepseek hosted chat site has additional 'post-hoc' censorship applied from what people have observed, if that's what you're referring to. While the foundational model (including self hosted) has some just part of it

Only the R1 671B model (aka just plain 'R1') has the censorship being discussed in the article. The smaller parameter models are fine-tunings of Llama and Qwen, and the former at least doesn't have the censorship. This has ca

My understanding of distilling is one model 'teaching' another, in this case the main R1 model is fine-tuning the open weight Llama model (and a Qwen variant also). I'm not sure of a comparative analysis of vanilla Llama thou

It's hard to judge if this is a bug (given users who've experienced this as such) or intentional. Someone in that thread says Youtube confirmed they were doing this but when finding a source[1] statement Google don't directly

Interestingly they cite for the Tiananmen Square prompt a Tweet[1] that shows the poster used the Distilled Llama model, which per a reply Tweet (quoted below) doesn't transfer the safety/censorship layer. While others using the n

The other issue is many sites don't use that CSS media query at the minimum for auto setting the theme. They instead use a Javascript approach that often involves local storage/cookies even if no choice is made, which doesn't

Yeah their actual point is about contrast ratio, which makes the headline a bit disingenuous. Ironically they end by saying they'll use an invert filter as a workaround, while for those who prefer dark mode if doing the same on the aut

That's typically called 'motion smoothing' and yeah that's trying to interpolate frames to manipulate lower framerate video (like 24FPS) into higher framerates in an attempt to make scenes like panning shots 'smooth

This is about improving motion clarity, so each displayed frame of moving content looks crisp rather than having blur (something that monitors can struggle with even at high refresh rates / high Hz). Most good monitor reviews of high H
