Not to mention deep research and notebook lm are crazy useful. Opal too if you just need a quick simple front end. I sneak in stuff I build with gemini for work all the time, though I'm only "officially" allowed to use github copilot enterprise. Which is sufficient if you know what you're doing, but you really have to invest in building good scaffolding. Without scaffolding it's really only good for code completion. Pro tip, wishful thinking function design + autocomplete creates an amazing synergy that's fucking amazing for rapid prototyping and very small projects you don't expect to scale up. Just use object context pattern for your ideal functions when you can and it's generally clean enough for most purposes.

That and the chattiness and the condescending reddit lectures every other prompt. I like how gemini literally just ignores inappropriate side remarks and not only stays on topic but even gently tries to help keep you on topic. Gemini feels like that boring but professional and competent coworker that you can't help but like because they make work easy, even if they have no personality. Gemini is purely for productivity, not fucking around.

It's called having an honour system.
All DRM can be cracked anyway unless you pay out of your ass for an enterprise denuvo license and annoy a ton of people who hate denuvo on principle. There's a reason only normieslop AAA games bother with denuvo.
Otherwise, pirates will pirate, and honest people will remain honest. Many small or indie devs just don't bother with DRM at all as a gesture of goodwill towards players, "look, I trust you guys to not just share it everywhere".

Personally I'm more likely to pirate a game if it has more DRM, and I will never ever pay for a game with denuvo for example.
>>
>>107746814
>>107747229
fair enough, i know all of that stuff already and the drm free part is one of the main reasons i purchased the game, normally i wouldn't because i hate drm and similar anti-consumer practices for the same reasons you described.
I guess the thing that i find weird is that overall i pirate a fuckton of games in all kinds of ways and from all sorts of sources and never once did I ever come across an humble bundle installer or zip file, let alone an official torrent from it, so I just assumed they had some restriction going on but I guess not?
GOG installers on the other hand are extremely easy to come by, that's what makes this confusing for me, i guess i didn't make it very clear what my point was.
Also i just noticed their torrent link does have a bunch of weird values appended to it (one of them is exp=*long number*, as in expiration maybe??) so I still think maybe i'm not entirely wrong in my assumption.

>Is there a reason why some Blu-ray series scramble the order of episodes on discs?
Without further information I'm going to assume it's something related to production order versus airing order. Or there's an issue with your player/software.

Using a bridge isn't going to conceal your Tor usage from the feds... bridges make it less obvious that you're using Tor and they're harder to censor... but a 3-letter agency monitoring your connection can still know you're using Tor if you're using Snowflake or an obs4 bridge. https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Hide_Tor_from_your_Internet_Service_Provider

Why do people bother with paid AI assistants like Grok, CoPilot, GPT, Gemini, and Claude, when this exists, it is FOSS, and it is currently beating out all the others in terms of raw reasoning power and token efficiency?

Come in here and explain why you're a fucking retard still using Grok because you live your life out on twitter.

i use it as a "good enough" workhorse for standard queries to save free-tier budget for paid models . it definitely has noticeable limitations like thinking it's 2024, and somewhat commonly replying in Chinese , and not building memory on past interactions . i haven't experimented with running it locally yet though , and will soon , and i expect these issues to be mitigated with local datasets / training .
>>
>>107746815
afaik none of the commercial AI assistants provide cross-conversational memory outside of ChatGPT and CoPilot, but with CoPilot you have to manually tell it "don't forget this" or "save this to memory for later" otherwise every new conversation you start is like you're a complete stranger. All the others, DeepSeek included, have no past retention of your other conversations.

I'm not sure why this is such a common limitation that only GPT and CoPilot have bypassed. My only guess is maybe user security and privacy or something like that, but I dunno.

I actually worked for a few aerospace contractors during summer internships and they're always looking for systems programmers or embedded Linux experts. Get to work on cool stuff, especially if you can get a clearance. Jeets nonexistent, you get a lot of white guys who went to state schools. Pay is gonna be less but it's pretty comfy desu.

Gradle is horrible. The build "DSL" is grotesque, and what people are doing with it is absolutely horrific. Maven has design faults, some of which they seem to be fixing in Maven 4, but on the whole it's nicer to deal with. Honestly, if I were to build a new java project today I'd probably use ant.

>Song submission rules/guidelines
Upload the file somewhere, preferably in a lossless format, and post the link here. If you want to update your track, make a new post.
Include the song title in the post, and make it clear that your song is a submission for the album.
Optionally you may include cover art for your track, but please confirm that the image in your post is the cover art or it won't be included. You may not use your real artist name.
Songs that contain anything against YouTube's policies won't be uploaded on YT, but will still be added to the album.
By default, tracks will be normalised to -14 LUFS (integrated loudness) in the release. You may specify a lower loudness for your track.
Use of AI is banned. This includes AI generated stems, samples, and effects. "AI" includes all neural network-based models and not hard-coded automation/procedural generation. You are allowed to ask an LLM about music-related questions, but asking it to give you musical ideas (eg. generating a chord progression) is already a no-no.

idk about sounds better, it's lacking a lot in comparison in terms of effects and osc types (probably a big update ahead, I got a survey email about what we want), but it is faster for some things
I like the LFO switcher and the fact all the LFOs are set up differently from the get go, some sync'd some not, exciters, random ect
and I like the separate performers, though drawing everything is slow, I wish we had a hugely expanded drag-and-drop shape menu built off the one in Massive

the classic trance tracks are special not just because of the composition or marketing. the hardware is contributing a lot to the sound. you could grind for years making numerous tracks with JE8086 and other VSTs and you wouldn't make worldwide hits like those teenagers did with relative ease all those years ago. this should be common sense and most normal people can tell if a professionally produced track sounds especially great and if an amateurishly produced track sounds meh or offensively bad. fucking retards.
