What small gift can I bring to someone who is feeling down?

  • Maybe you could get her something she can enjoy with the kids, like a board game or something.

    • A bride to be discovers a reality bending mistake in Apple's computational photography

    Jump

  • To their credit, it's not "fake". This isn't from generative AI, this is from AI picking from multiple different exposures of the same shot and stitching various parts of them together to create the "best" version of the photo.

    Everything seen in the photo was still 100% captured in-lens. Just... not at the exact same time.

    • The Open Hand Charity Scam Is So Much Worse

    Jump

  • To be fair, that criticism is kinda invalid. The medium doesn't change the story. Any written-up article, like the other commenter is requesting, would be second-hand reporting of the story, anyway, as the YouTube videos are the original source material.

    • Why is anti-cheat always client-side?

    Jump

  • Anti-cheats are typically designed so that the user can't actually modify them at all. They install themselves deep into your system, sometimes literally in the form of a rootkit which basically runs parts of it completely invisibly from your OS, entirely.

    • Elon Musk on X antisemitism controversy: “Don’t advertise. Go f*** yourself”

    Jump

  • Many people are saying it.

    • Blizzard is reportedly asking Diablo 4 players if they're okay with $100 DLC

    Jump

  • Ahh, this must be where the laid off Bungie employees went to.

    • Google Researchers’ Attack Prompts ChatGPT to Reveal Its Training Data

    Jump

  • Again, the article doesn't say whether or not the data was intended to be public. People post their contact info online on purpose sometimes, you know. Businesses and shit. Which seems most likely to be what's happened, given that the example has a fax number.

    Jump

  • It also doesn't mean it inherently isn't free to use, either. The article doesn't say whether or not the PII in question was intended to be private or public.

    • Google Researchers’ Attack Prompts ChatGPT to Reveal Its Training Data

    Jump

  • I'd have to imagine that this PII was made publicly-available in order for GPT to have scraped it.

    • Spam calls and texts are driving me fing crazy anyone have suggestions?

    Jump

    • Stop using YouTube.

    Jump

  • This is a bad thread.

    Not because it's a popular/unpopular opinion, but because OP is needlessly being a dick.

    • Spam calls and texts are driving me fing crazy anyone have suggestions?

    Jump

  • All this does is is flag the number as in service and it will get even more calls.

    That's not how it works. If the number rings at all, it's in service. They know your number is valid before you even pick up.

    • Here's our first look at Android 14's screenshot detection system in action

    Jump

  • I imagine that it's because there's likely to be a legitimate use-case scenario where you may want a background app to take screenshots. I'm not sure why that would be or what practical application there is for that, but this is probably meant to not directly interfere with background apps taking screenshots, but will still alert the user when it's happening.

    • Here's our first look at Android 14's screenshot detection system in action

    Jump

  • A/B testing. You probably just got the update before the general public did.

    • Here's our first look at Android 14's screenshot detection system in action

    Jump

  • This is to help the user identify when another app on their device is spying on them. It's not meant to prevent screenshots.

    • Here's our first look at Android 14's screenshot detection system in action

    Jump

  • Why? The purpose of this is to let you know if an app is spying on you.

    • YouTube is now getting into games

    Jump

  • It seems like this would be an excellent use of all that Stadia tech they built up. I'm pretty sure full YouTube integration was part of the bigger picture for Stadia. Such a shame to see the whole project just seemingly scrapped.

    But with the selection of what are effectively just mobile games, I have to ask: why? Why not just... play the actual mobile game?

    • New video shows trapped laborers alive in Himalayan tunnel but rescue still no closer

    Jump

  • Rescuers finally make it to them and they're like "Hold on, just one more game."

    • It is extremely obnoxious when you order something online and they ship it needing a signature

    Jump

  • FedEx does this to me, but ONLY with expensive shit, which I actually hate because I've had a new phone go missing from my porch after the driver forged a signature on it.

    • Best alternative to Chromecast?

    Jump

  • Yep, I'm with you on that. I'm actually pretty tech-literate, and even I don't have the time/energy to bother with all of that shit. That's a lot of work and maintenance just for a single task that I want to be as idle as possible. Watching videos should just be two clicks, not studying and building and troubleshooting and updating and configuring a dozen things.
