Would the recompiled games effect how ACE works in some games? I’d assume since the machine code is different the exploits used to trick the pointers would be different.

Quality of service, networking term for rate limiting. Essentially whatever the QOS is set to is the maximum speed you will see.

To be fair, Microsoft only bought and killed off the phone division. The rest of Nokia is still around including their R&D department bell labs. You know the same bell labs that’s developed some little know inventions like C and C++, solar panels, the transistor, and UNIX…

And Amtrak doesn’t have anti air weapons

Amtrak can pull your own private rail car. Nothing says that car couldn’t be the US’s navy’s armored caboose which may or may not actually have anti air weapons (classified)

Definitely not because Novartis is trying to recoup the 8.7 billion they spent on AveXis to acquire Zolgensma…

You999 ,

Except Zolgensma’s R&D was funded through the NiH. The only reason why it costs millions per dose is because Novartis bought AveXis for 8.7 billion solely to acquire the rights to Zolgensma.

Novartis isn’t the company who are denying it, that would be the insurance company Mosaic’s Health Care Trustees who aren’t covering it because it’s too expensive as stated in the article.

Insurance companies will do anything possible to get out of paying for specialty tier medications from using ‘step therapy’ where before they will approve the medication your doctor approved you must first try and fail all the available medications starting from least expensive. Insurance companies typically also charge a presentage on speciality drugs for the copay as a deterrent from being prescribed those medications. Currently the advocacy side of some large disease-focused charities such as the arthritis foundation are trying to get congress to federally ban step therapy and set a cap for specialty tier drug copays like they have for the other drug tiers.

ZFS is amazing but i wish it’s support for flash was better. I’m not sure if ZFS will ever be able to fully utilize flash since ZFS was designed around spinning disks and the pitfalls they provide. Maybe at some point F2FS will catch on…

ETX4 was released in 2006 and BTRFS was released in 2007.

Imo manufacturers need to do the opposite and release more concept cars. Some of the coolest looking cars you can never own. Just look at these masterpieces

Exactly, to my knowledge all personal liability insurances do not cover acts of wrongful doing. The delivery driver will have to retain a lawyer and sue the moron personally.

All they had to do was use a SoC with a NPU and they could of gotten away with this scam.

Which polestar?

The polestar 1 is a hybrid (discontinued)

Polestar 2 charges 20% to 80% in 28 minutes using LGES or CATL batteries depending on spec

Polestar 3 (unreleased) charges 20% to 80% in 30 minutes using LNMC batteries

Polestar 4 (unreleased) charges 20% to 80% in 30 minutes using LNMC batteries

Polestar 5 (unreleased) is still in development

The part about not suing tesla over patent infringement was the true poison pill and why no one took them up on it. Ford has over 79000 patents alone and that’s just one auto manufacture.

If it’s a business trip where time matters where you can’t afford to loose 25 minutes every few hours, why are you driving instead of flying?

You999 ,

But it’s still going to be fast (and cheaper with wages factored in) to fly while using one of the countless ‘last mile transportation’ options available when the distance is greater than an EVs range while you can’t afford to loose time to charging. The only exceptions I see is those jobs who need tools/supplies on site in which case you are almost definitely taking a fleet vehicle and this whole problem is moop.

You999 ,

Your thesis is fundamentally flawed though because you are taking your situation and extrapolating to the public as a whole. While I’ll agree the market for new EVs is stupid right now the used market is far from. I say that writing this from my 22’ model 3 I paid 18k for used. And that price wasn’t a fluke.

I’d also like to add the last mile transportation I was referring to isn’t public transport or some ride share app but the industry of van drivers who specialize in business transport. Companies like PTI or Halcon who specialize in getting you from anywhere to anywhere.

You999 ,

The avarage used car loan in the United States is 26k. That price is not “out of reach for the vast majority of people buying used cars”.

A lot of their shady practices are on their laptop side. For example their ROG laptops support USB PD as their main way of charging however asus forces you to use their own chargers. If you decide to use a third party USB PD charger (of the same wattage or greater mind you) then your laptop will disable the dedicated GPU and limits your fan speed profile to silent which causes your CPU to throttle under heavy load.

The problem with asus was all the engineers who cared went to asrock when they split. For those who don’t know, asrock started life as a subsidiary for asus to cover the low end and OEM markets. There used to be a lot of shared engineering between the two companies but there started to be some bad blood between each other as asus was releasing server hardware and asrock was releasing enthusiasts hardware. Ultimately it was decided since neither side wanted to stop stepping on the others toes they would let asrock fully separate from asus as a company and let the market decide things. Ironically that only lasted for three years before the majority stake in asrock was bought up by Pegatron, a company owned partially owned by asus…

Fun fact, trains in the US and Canada still discharge Grey water into the tracks.

Does this rule set apply towards diversions? Because under the current rule set an airline can divert a plane to an airport several hours away from your intended destination and they only have to give you a connection at some point in time.

You999 ,

That’s amazing to hear! I’ve personally have been left stranded by American when they diverted our flight to a regional airport that was six hours and two mountain passes away from our intended destination due to a blizzard and we were only offered a flight that took off three days later. We weren’t offered any hotel or food vouchers and when I tried to get a refund American only offered $50 in miles because “some service was provided”…

A VPN is only a single end point just like your ISP meaning you are only shifting the problem to your VPN provider who admittedly is more trustworthy than your ISP but you are still putting an immense amount of trust into a single point of failure.

If you truly want to hide from your ISP or really anyone, your only options are to use TOR or I2P where your traffic is encrypted and tumbled through multiple servers.

Clear and precheck are two separate things, clear only let’s you skip to the front of the line. If you want to enjoy the benefits precheck brings to the table with clear then you have to purchase both. It’s worth mentioning that most people do not pay for clear as it’s usually given out of a benefit for some credit cards and even some jobs that fly a lot.

You999 ,

Its really only useful at certain airports that aren’t managed that well. Like at seatac when it’s peak time but only have one of the four checkpoints open because they are still short TSA agents. I should also add clear also let’s you line cut in places outside of TSA inspection points like at border crossing customs and some stadiums events.

San Francisco sues Oakland over new airport name that includes 'San Francisco' (apnews.com)

San Francisco on Thursday sued Oakland after officials there voted in favor of changing the name of the city’s airport to San Francisco Bay Oakland International Airport, saying the change will cause confusion and is already affecting its airport financially....

You999 ,

Why not something like what with Seattle/tacoma did and combine the two city codes? Sfoak airport.

You999 ,

Why the fuck hasn’t anybody done this yet, at any point in the last 10-20 years?

Why would they when they are being paid?

I posted this in another thread but it doesn’t, DMA boards are capable of spoofing other PCIE device IDs which was one of the few ways vanguard used to detect DMA boards. Realistically the only anti cheat that actually works are replay based community voted convictions such as counter strike’s overwatch.

You999 ,

It wouldn’t be the best of ideas because the flash used for SD cards do not have the same kind of write endurance as other types of flash media.

You999 ,

The awnser is a firm no. Cheaters have moved to hardware based cheats with DMA boards. On valorant some cheaters have started exploiting remote play services to use machine vision based aim bots. Neither of those two methods can be detected by a kernel level anti cheat.

You999 ,

With DMA based cheats I disagree as if you were developing a DMA based cheat you would still need to understand how the game works so you can figure out what memory adresses are for what part of the game.

If they are trying at great leghth to block IPs associated with piracy, it isn’t that much harder to get known VPN IPs blocked too especially when they could use the ‘why won’t someone think of the children’ card and claim VPNs are solely used for CSAM and drug markets.

The smart move would be to skip VPNs and move over to I2P. For those who don’t know I2P is kinda like if tor and torrents had a baby that was a VPN on crack. Unlike a VPN where your traffic is encrypted and sent to one centralized server, I2P encrypts and routes your data through multiple servers and unlike tor every client by default is a node that data can be routed through.

You999 ,

Maybe I’m missing something but how could finding out who’s yodeling a movie be rather easy when you would have to decrypt the traffic to determine if it was a movie and not just normal traffic? I get that because of TCP/IP you can tell someone is using I2P but wouldn’t you have to compromise the garlic encryption layer to determine what exactly they are doing?

If I remember correctly yes with one exception for a beach just north of picnic point. That beach is to my knowledge the only privately owned beach in Washington because it used to be a ship salvage yard and several boats are still on the beach.

You don’t necessarily have to pay for hook ups anymore. I’d argue solar and some LiFe batteries are more than enough to power someone living a modest lifestyle. For water/sewage there’s plenty of places to fill up/drop off like at some interstate rest stops.
