If there's not enough power to run a manufacturing plant without impacting residents, then the generation needs to be expanded before anything can be built anyway.

Luckily renewable energy is the cheapest form of new electricity to build. I see no problem with making new manufacturing plants build/pay for their own power generation as well. The cost of installation is probably a tiny fraction of the cost of the actual manufacturing equipment or GPUs if it's an AI data center.

I'd actually be genuinely curious to see how it compares to taxi drivers, bus drivers, or ubers. Since they drive professionally, you'd hope they'd drive a bit safer than the average human.

I'm sure nothing will be able to compete with the safety numbers of trains or just being close enough to walk though.

The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where...

You get the idea

I just spent $200 on a Samsung 990 Pro 2TB :/

I'm finally swapping my main PC to Linux full time and ended up buying an entire new boot drive rather than dealing with shuffling files around to make space.

Didn't The Crew shut down servers recently anyway? I thought that was the catalyst for Stop Killing Games

You'd need to set up a firewall rule on your router to block that device from accessing the internet. If you've got a fancy enough router you could set up a VLAN and second SSID for all your IoT things and only whitelist connections and devices you want to allow. That can get a little tricky to set up though

This is actually a valid brainf*ck program, but it results in 19, not 10.

Windows Latest discovered Discord and other Chromium and Electron-based applications with high RAM usage

Lol, this is news? Where have they been the last 15 years?

In other news, the sky is blue.

Call it survivorship/selection bias if you want, but basically every hack I've been exposed to is from centralized servers getting exploited that serve millions of people. Plex, along with any other public facing service with lots of users, receives targeted attacks constantly. All my server receives is automated bots looking for 10-year-old Wordpress .php exploits (I don't even run php on my server).

Yeah, I'm not really worried about it. I changed my password and moved on. It's just that hackers have every reason to try and exploit Plex, while individual servers are hardly worth someone's time and effort to go after when the payoff is maybe 1-2 usernames and emails

Ironically AI doesn't have perfectly recall either, and that's kind of one of the main problems with it and hallucinations. It can easily get poisoned by a handful of data points in it's training set. But even then, it can only really blend 2 data points together, it's got no ability to extrapolate and think outside the box.

If you have a static IP, or dynamic DNS set up, you can set up your own remote access with a reverse proxy like nginx. The nice thing is I get to use my own SSL certificate and all the actual streaming goes directly to my server, not through their proxies.

The only "hacky" part about it is that the Admin dashboard shows "Not available outside your network", even though everything works perfectly.

 

I was on a road trip through the prairies and had to stop on the side of the road to watch the northern lights. The entire sky in all directions was lit up. I was able to take this shot with the big dipper visible.
