This is starting to tick me off. Now you've got me all wound up!
Cooking from scratch is excellent... But there's also an extreme for how far you consider "cooking from scratch" to actually be "from scratch"... For Example: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C76cACZB0oq/
Do you milk the cows yourself? Churn the butter? Etc.

The Day of the Vara event ended about 19 hours ago, but I've still been able to find multiple dark bear helmets in red/green lootboxes on the crusader platforms.
I don't think that these helmets will count towards the event, but if anyone still wants to grab a few before the next wipe, it looks like they're still findable.
But he does have a guess as to why Nintendo targeted him. The first copyright strike landed on his video about the MIG Dumper and the MIG Flash, a pair of devices that let you turn genuine Nintendo Switch cartridges into digital files and then carry around an entire library of those ROMs in a special microSD-equipped flash cartridge for your console. I’ve watched the video, and while Crandall does explicitly take an anti-piracy stance, it’s easy to imagine these gadgets being used by bad actors, too.
“I think the first strike was simply due to the fact that they wanted to minimize attention around the MIG Flash cartridge and dumper [...]"
Looks like he also mirrors his channel on Odysee, so the removed videos can still be seen here: https://odysee.com/@retrogamecorps:6/mig-flash-v2-and-cartridge-dumper-review:9

For me, the article makes it seem like there's some new announcement that the FBI has put out about a newly discovered vulnerability. Turns out, the announcement is about vulnerabilities we've known about for a long time.
Kitboga has used AI (STT, LLMs, and TTS) to waste the time of Scammers.
There are AI tools being used to develop new cures which will benefit everyone.
There are AI tools being used to help discover new planets.
I use DLSS for gaming.
I run a lot of my own local AI models for various reasons. Whisper - for Audio Transcriptions/Translations.
Different Diffusion Models (SD or Flux) - for some quick visuals to recap a D&D session.
Tesseract OCR - to scan an image and extract any text that it can find (makes it easy to pull out text from any image and make it searchable).
Local LLMs (Llama, Mixtral) for brainstorming ideas, reformatting text, etc. It's great for getting started with certain subjects/topics, as long as I verify everything that it says.
For fun I'll probably setup GLaDOS like what was done here: https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/comments/1csnexs/local_glados_now_running_on_windows_11_rtx_2060/
Orison in Star Citizen. One of the coolest cloud cities in gaming with some of the most amazing sunsets.

Edit: It's hard to pick a picture that captures the experience (so I picked a few). A video is better, but actually being there in-game is a whole other level. Everything from the bars, food court, living spaces, shipyard and space port add to the experience.
If a post is deleted for any reason it nukes everything, even the comments.
I can't go back and view any comments that I was replying to or that I had saved, I can only see my own comment.
Same, I'd say it's way better than most other transcription tools I've used, but it does need to be monitored to catch when it starts going off the rails.
Whisper isn't a large language model.
It's a speech to text (STT) model.
Rather than making it illegal to use, people need to use these tools responsibly. If any of these companies are using almost any kind of AI/machine learning they need to include a human in the loop that can verify that it's working correctly. That way if it starts hallucinating things that were never said, it can be caught and corrected.
I've found that Whisper generally does a better job at translating/transcribing audio than other open source tools out there, so it's not garbage.. But it absolutely is a hazard if you're trying to rely solely on it for official documents (or legal issues).
As far as promotion goes... It's open source software, it's not being sold.
As someone who uses Whisper fairly often, it's obvious that they've trained off of a bunch of YouTube videos.
Most of the time it's very accurate, but there have definitely been a few times in long transcription sessions where it will randomly hallucinate that someone is saying "Don't forget to like and subscribe!" When nothing was said anywhere near that.
Thanks! I definitely need to upgrade from the starter ship.
No idea about cats/dogs.
It's not accurate enough to be sure about whether you can eat it or not, but if you want to take a look at visually similar plants in your area:
Use the iNaturalist app.
Take a picture of it (or upload the picture you already have).
Click on "View Suggestions" and it should highlight visually similar plants as well as highlight matches that are most commonly found around you.
You don't need to submit the photo to their database, but if you do make sure to check the "it is cultivated" box if it's something you've grown yourself.
Again, do not depend on this to decide whether it's safe or not, but at the very least it will help you to research visually similar plants in your area.
Ah good point. If it was just affecting Nvidia cards then a driver update would be all that they need.
This is sounding more like a software issue on the Call of Duty side then.
But DLSS does still get updated models with driver updates:
DLSS uses the power of NVIDIA’s supercomputers to train and regularly improve its AI model. The latest models are delivered to your GeForce RTX PC through Game Ready Drivers.
Looks like this channel is alao available on Odysee, here's an alternate link: https://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/BRENDAN-EICH:9
It's a new game. This shouldn't be surprising. Most likely they just need to retrain/finetune the ML models being used for upscaling, frame generation, etc.
Should be coming in a driver update soon.
Looks like Apple barely won on the patent of some old charger and lost on almost everything else:
Masimo said in a statement that the company appreciated the jury’s verdict “in favor of Masimo and against Apple on nearly all issues,” and that the decision only applied to a “discontinued module and charger.”
“Apple primarily sought an injunction against Masimo’s current products, and the jury’s verdict is a victory for Masimo on that issue,” Masimo said.

Update on Galaxy’s Base-Building Capabilities
Today [13min ago]
Hey everyone,
I realise my previous comments may have given the wrong impression, and I spoke too soon on this topic. I’ve since regrouped with the larger team(s) to ensure we’re all fully aligned on the Galaxy’s future. To clarify: while there’s no base-building module currently in active development for the Galaxy, we’re fully committed to enabling a large base-building drone module for it down the line. The Galaxy won’t be the first ship for building large-scale structures when base building launches, but will come soon-after, and its potential for that role is very much intact.
My earlier comment about when things are "speculative" was incorrect. We want to make sure that when we walk on stage, during ISC, or in any presentation, you can walk away feeling confident in the information we share.
We’ll share more information on this module as it becomes available. Thanks for all of the feedback, and I'll be monitoring threads closely if you have any more questions.
Edit: removed the "pinned" text that got mixed in with the title.
Ok, this is a bit more than what the title implies. This isn't just outputting the code in text, but rather the ability to verify its own answers before responding to the user asking questions using code.
Claude could attempt these tasks before. But, because it lacked a mechanism to mathematically verify the results, the answers weren’t always incredibly accurate.
So now if you ask it a math question or for it to create some visual bar chart, it will actually do the work to verify that what it's saying is valid.
I'm sure there will still be ways to trip it up, but this is a good step forward.
> # Message of the day > > 2 hours ago > > 🎃(Wednesday) We have been testing the server side of the hotfix from yesterday overnight and are planning on sending out a client side portion of the 3.24.2 LIVE hotfix later today

> Richt-CIG > > # A quick note to our Solo Players > > Today [1hr 31min ago] > > Hey,\ \ So, firstly sorry for the slow response. I have unsurprisingly been very busy post citcon with 4.0 and Q1 initiatives.\ \ Secondly, I wanted to reassure everyone that AI blades are part of the 1.0 plan - they will not be as effective as other players and they will take additional power to run. We will also be offering a way of upgrading them through tiers but again they will never be as good as a good player.\ \ Also as AI Blades provide most of the functionality, NPC crew will most likely be a post 1.0 plan.\ \ As I said in the presentation, Star Citizen is a universe that caters to all players - and that most definitely includes solo players. As with all games some things will more suitable to solo than group play and vice versa.\ \ With that said, I better get back to work as I have two games to ship for you all.\ \ Cheers,\ Rich

Baior recently posted a thread asking for feedback on changes to ship components where everyone basically responded with a "How would we know unless someone datamined the info?"

> Hi > > Thank you all for your feedback so far. We are aware that we are not doing the best job yet in presenting the stats of each item.\ This is something that we are actively looking into improving moving forward since we do not want our players to be required to use external tools (we are very thankful that they exist though).\ \ You have been heard and we have better stat visibility on our list we are actively looking into.\ But we wont have a solution for 3.24.2.\ \ As additional side note to Baiors message:\ \ Since this patch has the biggest change we ever did for the ship components yet, we are still iterating over the values.\ \ Here I personally ask for all the feedback that you can provide\ \ What are you expecting to see when we talk about our classes like competition, military, industrial and stealth?\ What are the component loadouts you have for your mining or salvage endevours versus your PvP setup?\ What is your favorite item and why shouldnt we nerf it 😛?\ \ \ To be super clear here, everything helps us right now, but what helps us the most is a description of what you are expecting in words 🙂.\ Additionally it helps describing what you already like and what you think still needs improving. > > Cheers,
