Interesting, however if you look at what’s happening it’s not really helping your case. The country with most solar production and deployment is China, country that does not have many datacenters, they instead use that energy to build more solar panels quicker, and currently have had the first year of decline in emissions. US on the other hand is building natural gas power plants because they can’t produce enough of those cheap solar panels, because just because they are cheap does not mean you can build lot of them easily, things cost materials to build, different materials, not just pouring money into it and magically making it happen. So every bit of energy wasted is bad and not helping.
>>107829377
It is using up lot of electricity and using up drinking clean water, because dirty water or salt water would cause buildup of salt and minerals clogging the system. And when you use clean water you eventually evaporate it and then it rains down (mostly into sea) and goes to become dirty water again requiring more treatment, not to mention that if you are using more water then rains down, you will have to eventually start pumping water from lakes and underground, at which point you are actually using up water that will not return to the lake or ground unless you start consuming less then it rains again.

Not the problem
The problem is the tech industry already produces 99% useless shit that nobody wants or needs but winds up using for a variety of involuntary reasons. AI can produce the same useless shit, which means we'll see a 100x increase in how much shitty tech we're forced to use. It's making the world worse because tech in general makes the world worse.
I'm not a "luddite": show me an AI that can ensure shitty tech products will die and useful tech will thrive and I'll happily admit AI might improve the world.

crts to not have a fixed number of lines they can draw, the mask does not fundamentally change how they work. if you draw too many lines the mask can OBSTRUCT the beam, but it doesn't mean the beam ceases to exist you fucking moron.

I'd like to see how you rationalize slot mask or aperture grille, if crts have a "fixed limit" as you say.

Is that KDE? Window rules can force server side decorations if the apps don't have that option, but then you'll probably end up with two title bars.

Apple says Face ID is more secure than Touch ID but is that even true?
Sure, Face ID is statistically less likely to return a false positive with random faces because faces are more diverse than fingerprints are but fingerprints are more randomly distributed, so the odds that you know someone who shares enough facial features with you (say, biological family members, for instance) to trigger a false positive have to be higher than someone you know having a similar enough fingerprint. Even though faces can potentially be more different between individuals, fingerprints are less often shared between people the user and people who regularly appear in his life, who are the most likely people to attempt to unlock his devices without his permission.
Additionally, if you're holding someone else's phone in their presence, I'd imagine it's harder to unlock their phone against their will by taking them by surprise with Touch ID than it would be with Face ID. With Face ID, all the user has to do is glance at the device for even a split second. With Touch ID, you need to place your finger -- the right finger -- on the sensor and press. It's a more involved and intentional process, but also a more convenient one because you don't have to uncover your face or position yourself correctly or make eye contact with the device in order to initiate the unlock sequence.
Shouldn't it also be harder to fabricate a counterfeit fingerprint than it would be to create a mask realistic enough to unlock the device?

Basically, Touch ID seems just better than Face ID across the board. The only practical upside to Face ID I can think of is the ability to read notification details without touching the device.

Is there something I'm not considering here or are fingerprint sensors just better than facial recognition?

>>107830658
>>107830625
Anon I think you're conflating Face Unlock (Android; uses RGB "selfie" cam) with Face ID (uses TrueDepth, separate from the selfie camera).
Taking a photo or video of the device's owner only works with Face Unlock because Face Unlock is purely software and just scans the camera feed for what looks like a face before comparing that face to the one on file. Face ID looks for shape, not color. It uses lasers to create a depth map of whatever objects are in front of it and compare that shape to the one on file. If you hold up a photo of the registered face, the TrueDepth camera won't see the photo. It'll just see the shape of whatever object is supposed to be displaying it. So, a hand holding a rectangle. And since neither of those shapes resemble a human head, it wouldn't trigger a false positive.
This is also why Face ID works in pitch black darkness and Face Unlock does not, and why Face ID doesn't care about things like makeup or lighting.

Probably because a lot of obnoxious faggots found out that you can type them (-, ‒, –, —) with the keyboard and they're enforced in some sites (years before the chatsloppers).

I can speculate on Linus. He's older and educated. I imagine some mix of his formal education and being a non-native English speaker, combined with picking up habits from the gorillions of people he communicates with online for decades; is a factor.
Linux being as widespread as it is, I imagine he must get dragged into formal situations too.
As an anecdote, my English has incidentally expanded (for better or worse) due to having to write published documentation, attempting brevity. On top of typical text messages with people near and far.

Why other people do it, idk. Maybe the same trajectory minus the ESL?
I think my communication is mostly influenced by my region and has been influenced by communicating on the internet + real world travel to places of foreign vernacular.
There's something about English being the modern Latin / lingua franca of the world, and access to the internet, that is causing all these standards (native, new; foreign, old) to organically mix into a net standard?

Hey what's the best way to deal with a scammer who took over someone's discord account?

Long story short I had a really close friend on discord only (rookie mistake but I didn't want to push then for anything personal =3)

And some scammers took over the account and are demanding 200 dollars . . . They first tried to scam me by pretending to be her to get me to give them money but it was obviously not the person so now their trying to scam me to maybe get info on contacting my friend :(

It makes me really sad and I was wondering if any of you fine folk might know what to do . . . Im not sure what the proper way to figure this out is frens. . .

>And I doubt they actually have the info; I feel like their just lying to try and scam more money as they tried a scam earlier

Any nice hacker folks who hate scammers about and might know a trick or two that could be pulled =3

This person was really a special person and I'd genuienly be a much sadder person if I never got to talk to them again.

Like I reported them to discord and nothing happened so idk what to do frens . . .

If the account was stolen, contact Discord support. Seems like the logical thing to do.

That being said, if you were such close friends, then this friend of yours can just make another account and contact you, no? Seems like a non-issue.

>>107830073
