Paying does not guarantee anything. It does not guarantee a more reliable service, it does not guarantee that they will hear you out when they change a feature or the design, ruining it, and it does not guarantee it won't shut down tom

I have a 13900K. The default BIOS settings set a maximum wattage of 4096W (!!!) that makes Prime95 fail. If I change the settings back to 253W, what Intel says is the maximum wattage, Prime95 stops failing. Still, I don't know if I sho

I have a 13900K and I am affected. Out of the box BIOS settings cause my CPU to fail Prime95, and it's always the same CPU cores failing. Lowering the power limit slightly will make it stable. I intended to better refrigerate the CPU a

They are using a service that allows them to make their opinion public and publicised and to know other people's opinions. Or does that have no value now?

You should try yourself. The bing image generator is open and free. I tried the same prompts, and it is reproduceable. (Requires a few retries, though)

Bing also generates political propaganda (guess of what side) if you ask it to generate images with the prompt "person holding a sign that says" without any further content. https://twitter.com/knn20000/status

You need to have a certain amount of karma points to see the downvote arrow. I think 500 so you're almost there.

I've seen this done in Spain and basically it means all kids have to go through an entire year of progressive propaganda. Thanks but no thanks.

This is the same problem that modern Windows has: these systems are designed by 20-something year old designers who wear specs with thick coloured frames and who only use Mac and Safari. They don't give a shit because they don't h

Definitely - I did not mean "infectious" in a disparaging way, since that's what the licence was written for. If you include GPL code, the licence "infects" everything around it.

I have used in the distant past DRM music files that counted how many plays I had left, but I remember not much of it. I think it was a Nokia phone. Maybe WMA files with PlayReady DRM?
