Are you people?

I also never saw a calculation that took into amount my VPS costs. The fckers scrape half the internet, warming up every server in the world connected to the internet. How much energy is that?

Actually that usually is how it works. Unfortunately.

*Too big to fail" was probably made up by the big ones.

Yeah, but I like the “two weeks” one better, it waits at least four days until the next popup. The other one, the lil X, waits like four minutes

“abusive spouse” funny way to spell "government and “techbros”

On a tangent, to me as an outsider it seems that most Americans are more likely to view anything as negative. I have no scientific backing for my shitpost though.

Also, there was a comment on “arbitrary scoring for demo purposes”, but it’s still biased, based on biased dataset.

I guess this is just a bait prompt anyway. If you asked most politicians running your government, they’d probably also fail. I guess only people like a national statistics office might come close, and I’m sure if they’re any good, they’d say that the algo is based on “limited, and possibly not representative data” or something.

It’s 12, looks good to me.

plus - less staffers, less software. less software, less attack surfaces. they should lay off everybody, then you don’t need servers, then nobody can hack you!

Pedometers, you mean?

Well, true, but tyres wouldn’t make it a double distance, it’s not that simple. The case isn’t clear, if course, but the claim says that the odometer tried to reduce the range after it got out of the warranty period.

Not saying anything about the merit of the case, just the the claim itself sounds interesting and that if true, you can’t wave it away with “you changed tyres”.

Fucking hell, that site a million partners who all have “legitimate interest”. I’ve clicked on like a third of them and then gave up. I don’t need their shit.

Now that they have their own Putin, why not?

it doesn’t look like *s to me

I generally use 2000px on the long edge. That’s the limit on 52frames.com and for the rest it’s usually good enough.

Not optimal if you want fast loading times, but at least it’s good enough to print.

They have been making their own x86 knock-offs for a while now, but not at the same scale as the “regular” - i.e. they’d been doing it at 14nm or so, so less efficient.

I don’t know if they have better fab process since then, and for how big a scale.

how do you “register” your esim?

You could just block most of the internet services - gmail, youtube, facebook etc under these rules, and then wreak havoc. I bet they’d roll back these laws in record time if someone pushed them to the limits :/

Like others here, I’ll almost always do:

• Exposure as rendered
• Denoise (profiled)
• Haze removal
• Lens correction

I’ll frequently also enable Sharpen and either Filmic RGB or Shadows and Highlights, depending on the style I want.

I’ll sometimes crop the images.

When I actually want to do manual editing, it’ll mostly be a small tweak in the RGB levels followed by Colour balance RGB module. I’ll also adjust exposure partially, via masks, and similar other tweaks.

Very rarely ill want to heal something with Retouch.

When I’m really having fun (and time), I’ll just go tinker with everything else just to see what happens. It’s rare that I have the time, though.
