He's anything but stupid, he is also human, makes mistakes (like you) and the last time I checked he was working on AI for years now so, yeah, he's probably going to gravitate towards "AI good" instead of "AI took m

There is no "real" GPU virtualization available for regular consumer, as both AMD and NVIDIA are gatekeeping it for their server oriented gpus. This is the same story with Intel gatekeeping ECC ram for decades. Even if you run gam

You are wrong, Pascal has always allowed pure raw pointer and data manipulation as well as self memory management, the strong type enforcement and auto management for some types (strings, dynamic arrays) is just on the surface so you don&#x

They announce the product but you can't even pre-order it, a typical pi experience.

I used to have a lot of cavities due to poor oral hygiene, after I had a complications with my wisdom tooth, I really decided to step up my game and take care of my teeth. Brush 3 times per day, 15 minutes after every meal. Floss two times

nothing magic about Result keyword, it's just an implicit pointer, you can avoid it completely by using explicit pointers.

Imho if cpu manufacturers figure out how to slap a large cache on the same die (something like amd 3D V-Cache but much more) we may actually see graphic cards become obsolete in favor of software rendering.

I just took apart my unit CP1300EPFCLCD and it indeed has the yellow silicone. There's also a lot of white silicone but only to keep wires in place. My solution is to just inspect the unit every once a year to see if any yellow glue is

by revanx_ 4y ago
no it doesn't. It just shows the location where you can find the glue. How do you actually remove it? Do you soke it in ethanol and pick it apart or how ?

by revanx_ 4y ago
so how do you go about removing/cleaning that glue?

How do you achieve the X <= 10 ms switching capacity? You need this if you actually want your equipment to survive the power outage. Also, I'm extremely sensitive to humm noise output by inverters so I can only tolerate UPSs that ha

I had to place my unit (CP1300EPFCLCD) in an empty room for 2 weeks to let it out-gass, the smell of plastic was unbarable and was not suitable for living conditions. I found others complain on the web just as well. After two weeks I measur

This was very educational, all of a sudden I couldn't reach 60% of all websites I normally visit everyday. I guess this is the cost of laziness under the guise of DDOS protection.

This is because some major refactoring has to happen in RTTI and system units to support dynamic linking so that true delphi-style runtime dynamic packages can be supported. This is easier said then done because of how many platforms are su

I use the synopse mORMot library for server side rendering http server and database access. It has well written documentation with lots of examples on how to get started. IF you have any questions I am free to answer them.

I bought a 58 inch samsung tv in 2016 for around 250 euro. 1080p, barebone no smart features, two hdmi ports and two usb 2.0 ports. I wouldn't give it up even if someone payed me double today. It works as intended and that's all I

thank you for that link. Does AMD have the same shenanigans of locking out consumer grade gpu's? Intel has GVT-g vGPU virtualization which works with intel integrated graphics, it will be interesting to see what road Intel takes with t

I wish Systemd-networkd had native PPPoE support. https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/481 Still, systemd is just great and it has made my life a lot easier.

iptables and nftables both have ways to declare rules for interfaces that come and go. Identifying dynamic interfaces is done by string comparison instead of by index (for static interfaces).

thank you for the follow up. You have made some good points but I couldn't find any explanation to what you said : systemd talking to the network before I even have the client firewall up .

by revanx_ 6y ago
I see, I've heard about it but I couldn't find any reference that systemd starts listening on sockets before the firewall service is started. Even if it did, with systemd you can setup your firewall service to start before the eth

What do you mean it talks to the network? Can you give some reference?

What I miss in modern games is the unique textures that old games have. Just lookup "Sacrifice" game on steam. There's so much post-processing crap in modern games that it sucks out all the life from a game.
