Sounds like BS to me. Anyone can host PDFs on AWS and spoof US government agencies, look up C.A.P.T.C.H.A. Congress. No hits for it. Did Russia hack into US government servers? Probably. Nonetheless, this reads like a scare piece and not a legitimate communication from the DoD.
Our eyes also have the ability to desensitize to higher levels of light input, so the sun at high noon will be really bright but it’s the same as if you were in the complete dark for an hour and walked out into a brightly lit room. The eye gets used to the bright light. The same thing happens walking inside a low-light house from a bright day, it will take a minute to adjust but once you do your eyes have a completely different perception of light intensity.
With the solar eclipse, even 1% of the sun showing still lights an area greater than indoor lighting or perhaps even outdoor lighting, so we perceive it as still somewhat bright. This is sunset-level sunlight but the source is above instead of behind the horizon.
At what cost though? Like a single parachute without an automatic release system costs hundreds, if not thousands. You multiply that by 150 and it’s infeasible. Now include an automatic deployment system, and we’re talking tens of thousands per unit. Not including maintenance and repairs, long-term storage costs, the added weight on the plane. All these costs would be added to passenger tickets at a markup, so that $450 flight across the country is now a $700 flight. The risk also still remains because of depressurization issues, even if you make it to the surface your blood might boil in your body and still cause you to pass.
Logistically, plane accidents that result in loss of life are so rare that it would make more sense to equip every car in production with ejector seats then it would to equip every plane seat with automated parachutes.
If you want to build a background removal tool from scratch that’s a project of its own. This shows you how to very simply remove a background with a pre-existing tool that other people have spent the many hours to get functional so you can do the five-minute tutorial.
It’s not the Arch Linux way, it’s more like the Ubuntu way.
I literally thought about this on my flight a couple weeks ago, if the plane loses power in the air most people in the plane are just gonna go down with it. I imagine most if not all passengers have no idea how to properly operate a parachute.
So Ubisoft has just pulled the server plug on The Crew rendering the game useless for everyone who bought a copy? Obviously a ploy to get people onto the new entries but the only issue is that since it’s not an offline game, they have rendered a good inaccessible. This was probably in the TOS, but even so I think one could argue that is a terrible position to put a customer in who may have spent more money on DLC and likely spent a lot of time on progressing in the game.
Arguably, if Ubisoft is going to make profit off DLC, they should be forced to at the bare minimum either refund a fair amount of the purchase back to the users or allow the DLC to be used in a later release, along with giving pre-existing players a discount towards the newer entry. That’s how you treat your customers right.
Hey, if you understand Python it makes sense. If you’ve used the PIL before it makes even more sense. If you don’t understand Python, you should probably start by understanding Python.
The Linux Foundation isn’t doing most of that legwork though, multiple corporations with their own interests are. Microsoft, Valve, and Red Hat are some of the biggest contributors to the kernel, but they aren’t paying teams specifically to keep up Linux as much as they are paying teams to develop for them things which must be contributed back to the kernel.
Pretty damning for the current state of AI, I’m just glad it’s not a hype piece like every other article out there. AI is nowhere close to the same thing as a useful tool, it gains much more from us than we do from it.
