I had a dog who developed seizures. Low dose phenobarbital solved the issue thankfully. It was a little inconvenient because he required regular liver tests and also, phenobarbital being a controlled substance, I had to buy it at a regular pharmacy. But other than that it was fine, much better than the seizures. He had no issues until he died (years later) of unrelated problems stemming from old age.
I was thinking Khorne wasn’t appropriate for the USA because Khorne cares about honorable combat. Then I thought Nurgle because we’re all fat and sick and because of the ivermectin brain-worms shit, but no, Nurgle is actually an avuncular and loving god in his own way. Tzeentch actually plans stuff and thinks ahead.
I think its a Slaanesh cult. The elites are all pedos, the propaganda is obsessed with genitalia, the populace doesn’t give a shit as long as the treats flow.
They exist, they’re just more corporate and centralized, and inundated with basic tech support questions due to the huge install base.

If you dig deep enough in there you’ll find administrators talking about powershell hacks and devops and group policy and stuff like that. There’s probably people who are “passionate” about Windows, I’d imagine, but since it’s closed source there’s only so much you can do without being literally an employee of MS. The people I’ve met like this are kind of smugly defensive about Windows because they’ve invested so much training and knowledge into its arcana, but it’s not exactly “passion”.
CLI installation guide is perfect, thank you.
Thanks, I plan on doing this when my phone dies. Just some questions:
A computer with a Chromium-based browser (e.g., Google Chrome, Brave, Microsoft Edge, Vivaldi?). Unfortunately, I must recommend Windows 10/11 here, because then you don’t have to mess around with any drivers; it’s the simplest option.
This is the first I’ve read this, how much of a pain is it to use Linux instead? I don’t have any Windows computers.
First of all, we need to make sure that our phone’s software is updated to the latest available version. For this purpose, we go to Settings -> System -> System update. If necessary, we update
How is this possible if the previous step skipped SIM and Wifi setup? I assume, if there’s updates, to setup Wifi then proceed?
securing the phone with a fingerprint; I personally am an advocate of this solution…
Recommend not doing this for users in the USA, as police can compel you to unlock biometric locks. Yes, it’s fucked up, that’s what happens when octogenarian fascists run all three branches of your government.

Investment money has basically dried up. Even indies need that, unless you mean the “one person in their garage working off Patreon” type of studio. For awhile Chinese companies were holding down the fort and trying to expand in North America, but they’ve largely withdrawn that strategy and focused on domestic production. That’s why so many indie studios working on their first game shut down in the last two years.
For this to reverse itself interest rates will need to come down, but for that to happen without catastrophic inflation we would need several years of un-fucked monetary policy. So basically it’s fucked for a long time and possibly will never exist again in the way it did. This is on top of all the other issues the vfx/game industries have with crunch, chaotic management, etc.
New Year’s Resolution: I’m going to “reform” my body by going from obese to morbidly obese.
I just remember it being really expensive. I think it was $4 to rent? Plus the looming potential late fees. Whatever it was, at the time it seemed like a fortune. So you couldn’t really fuck around and rent “Mansquito 2: Womansquito” just for laughs because it really was a huge ripoff when a movie sucked, or was damaged, or something. Also the popular movies were never in stock. They would put hundreds of empty boxes on the shelves to make it seem like it was there, but the actual tapes were always gone.
The marginalia of medieval manuscripts are often pretty wild. Just my personal theory, but I always thought it seemed like one of the places where the artists could inject a little of their own ideas, elaborating on the subject or drawing parallels, using symbolism, maybe little in-jokes for the client (hours books were made for one person), etc. Sort of like the extra panel of an xkcd comic.
I’m not sure I buy the McDonald’s worker story, the whole narrative of the arrest seems really bizarre. (Not that I eat their shit food, one way or another.)
The dialog pushing AI media seems to start from this assumption that I consume media just to have colors and words and sounds enter my face holes. In fact, I consume art and media because I like hearing, seeing, and reading about how other humans experience the same world I do. It’s a form of communication. I like the product but also the process of people trying to capture the bonkers, ineffable experience we all seem to be sharing in ways I would never think of, but can instantly verify.
What’s funny is, due to the nature of media, it’s kind of impossible to not communicate something, even if the artwork itself is empty. When I see AI media I see the communication of a mind that doesn’t know or give a shit about any of this. So in their attempt make filler they are in fact making art about how inarticulate they are. It’s unintentional, corporate dadaism.
At some point in my 40s I started doing that medieval “first sleep” and “second sleep” thing where my eyes just blast wide awake at 2am. I don’t have to pee, I’m not uncomfortable, I just wake up. I read, take the dog out, brush my teeth again… After awhile I go back to sleep and wake up at the normal time.
I guess it is kind of nice to do a patrol around and make sure everything is cool, and the dog loves it. It’s just kind of weird.
Hic tamen vivit.
They are, if you scroll to the bottom of the github repo that OP posted there are some examples of what works and doesn’t work to break it.
Watermark data like this is stored in the least significant bits of the pixels themselves, or in the case of OPs example, they do a frequency decomposition on the image then store the watermark data in the coefficients. Basically you have to trash the pixel data at least a little bit to defeat it. So cropping or flipping the image won’t do it, but resizing or rotating with some kind of filtering will.
I have no idea how the machine-learning technique listed there is working, and their documentation link is broken :(
Also Dr Who. Our school had a kid who wore a big Tom Baker scarf and hat everyday. I hope he’s doing well.
I’ve tried, it sucks. Each broker has their own process, often several steps, and often a step is broken (like server errors, can’t get past a captcha, “try again later”, etc). You end up not just having to do the process, but also follow up with many of the ones that are ambiguous or returned server errors or whatnot. I did the top 8 or so brokers and then stopped.
Yep, the schedule is always a perpetual crisis. Justifies crunch, adding tech debt, shooting down dev wishlist items, cutting content, all sorts of things.
The last game I worked on got panned pretty hard, and amongst the hundreds of complaints I didn’t see one that hadn’t been raised internally months or years before release. Some of them I personally had shelved P4 change lists that were 6 months old. But hey, no time for that, we gotta get this E3 trailer out! Oh now that’s done? Well changelist is old now, can’t risk submitting that we got a presentation for the brass soon!
Anyway I think I’m retired, or something.
There’s no way they want to eliminate bot traffic, it would kill 2/3rds of their traffic instantly. So this just means, “bots that aren’t paying us.”
