Get a display case and put a note with the story on it. That way it’s clear its being kept from historical/sentimental value and not because you like Nazis.

Hot take, C is better then C++. It really just has one unique footgun, pointers, which can be avoided most of the time. C++ has lots of (smart)pointer related footguns, each with their own rules.

Fake nudes of real people are generally illegal, regardless of if the nude is real, or photoshopped, or AI generated.

People have been arrested and convicted for AI porn of real people.

For now convictions seem to be confined to people who have already created/used more traditional CSAM (hidden cameras). This could just be because it is hard to catch someone simply generating images, so if someone with no record would be jailed for just fake nudes remains an open question. Fake nudes of fictional people are also very much an open question. Being very new technology, new laws have yet to be made, so feel free to write to lawmakers about where the line should be.

Seriously, what did he expect? The first thing you learn before getting a gun is to never assume a gun is unloaded or safe, even if you just checked it. Never point a gun at anything you do not want to shoot. As always, safety rules are writen in the blood.

I think it is highly unlikely someone gave him a gun without going over the basics of or of him intentionaly ignoring safety rules for the video.

Like a kid trying very hard to sound like everyone else. “Eloquent bullshit generator”

Prevent subprocess from killing itself until finished.

Well first off, how nice/tolerant is your management? Do you have savings? Some companies can fire people over this stuff, other will just ignore it.

The easiest (and least likely to make anyone mad) solution would just be to bring in your own machine and use celular internet. This way your setup will be completly seperate from the company network, and they can hardly claim you were exposing them to malware or anything. On the other hand you might have problems accessing devices like printers without copying files back and forth (are USB drives allowed?).

Making decisions is the whole point of repesentives. If you don’t like their choices, don’t vote for them. Unfortunately, most places use first-past-the-post voting, which tends to result in 2 extreme parties, and people end up having to vote for the one that sucks less.

The TV will try and amplify and display any signal. Without a station, it will end up amplifying random radio noise and tiny fluctuations in the amplifier circuits themselves.

The momentary signal strength is interpreted as brightness of a spot which is rapidly scanned over the display. In this case the signal is random so every spot on the screen will be a random brightness, changing every frame.

Modern digital TVs won’t do this, because with compressed video recognizable data is needed to even attempt displaying a picture.

As for the sources of the radio noise, most of it is from electrons being jostled by heat, some from space. (Including the cosmic microwave background others have mentioned)

The electron jostling (thermal noise) is the reason the receivers on radio telescope as cooled to insanely low temperatures often with liquid helium.

This is actually how you should declare something that you will never change, but something might change externally, like an input pin or status register.

Writing to it might do something completely different or just crash, but you also don’t want the compiler getting creative with reads; You don’t want the compiler optimizing out a check for a button press because the “constant” value is never changed.

I don’t think you could fit video on that microcontroller, even with the best compression. But some low memory and compute video compression for embedded devices would be nice.

I don’t know if writing a custom image compresson program and streaming graphics rendering code with worth saving a few bucks on parts.

I used it in a few microcontroller projects, let me get away with the cheaper 8 bit microcontroller with 64K of flash. The streaming decoding is real nice, because it can be read from flash and sent of to a display, without ever keeping it in ram. (4K!)

I have personaly known a lot of people who have seemed super happy at first, but were putting up a facade over some real big mental health problems. Just because someone is able to socialize doen’t mean they are living a good life, and you can do lots of fulfilling things without in person interaction.

Don’t worry about being normal, just do fun and fulfilling things.

What ever happened to the badly drawn comic memes, I liked those.

Security from what? Get a threat model.

A NAT will restrict connections from the internet, but won’t stop attacks from your local network. As your network grows, it might be a good idea to isolate shitty IOT devices (firmware is often full of holes), home internet and sensitive devices like cameras.

Federation should hapen automaticly when a user subscribes to content on another instance.

CO2 emissions are not the only problem with burning things for power. Air polution causes an estimated 3.6 million deaths annualy (thats like world war 2 every 20 years), with the bulk of those (2.1 million) being caused just by ultrafine soot and ozone from burning fues. Additionaly, burning coal produces huge amount of ashes that are full of toxic heavy metals, in quanties that are near impossible to safely dispose of. Most of this ash just gets pilled up, where it it gets blown into the enviroment. (Fun fact, these ash piles are radioactive from naturaly occuring uranium and thorium)

The only way out is to stop burning things as fuel.

It seems gradual to me. It’s a combination of Google’s actions (They make money from ads and storefronts so they promote sites with ads and storefronts) and adversarial attacks on PageRank by spammers. PageRank used to work well until people started designing sites to game the system.
