GeForce Now is great for simulation games like Factorio or Civilization. Unfortunately 2K Games decided to arbitrarily restrict users of GeForce Now from playing Civilization VI, even with a licensed copy from the Steam store. In the beginning, it worked great. I could play on a giant map with 13 AI civilizations who completed their turns in a few seconds. And my laptop didn’t sound like an airplane.

I’m still bitter at 2K about this. If they offered an alternative cloud gaming subscription then I would purchase it to play Civ on a cloud machine. But they just decided to interfere in my choice of which hardware I use to run their software, while offering no alternative.

Super disappointing. I do still pay for GeForce Now though, because it’s a low price and because I have anxiety about what would happen to my save files if I stopped paying.
Sadly Bethesda is now owned by Microsoft who are running their own cloud gaming service.
Exactly! :)

Does anybody know any service or a decent way to convert Google Translate pages to some editable format ? I would like to save that translation just in case I could find time to polish and publish English version.

They get posted to the top of the page and automatically decay, they are clearly marked in the title. To begrudge YC this one pay-off for their efforts and funding of HN seems a little entitled to me. No vote arrows, points and comments is distinction enough for me.

Well, they added the Option, so you can get your server for less then normal. The Servers are cheaper, if you Opt-Out of IPv4. I really liked that move.

uMatrix shows a 3rd party request to improving.duckduckgo.com every time I visit a page from DDG search results, ostensibly to measure click-through rate. This is claimed to be anonymous, but in principle it gives DDG the opportunity to log much about their users' browsing habits.

Netflix's _How to Change Your Mind_ (based on a book with same name, I believe) has been a nice digestible look at psychedelics' uses in various therapies, now and in the past, if you're interested in that kinda thing.

We have goals for our family, for the most part resources including money are pooled and put towards those goals. What experiences do you want to have together? Make them happen.
It says "usually". It varies! But, in general, the libc implementations I have looked at handle this. This includes Newlib, glibc (they call it start.s), picolibc, musl (crt1), and my own libc.

The presence in your binary only means that crt0.o was statically linked (may be an expectation of the loader on your system). If you linked against a static libc, you would also see those symbols as part of the binary.
It’s mostly up to the specific hardware and its host-side drivers. I’d say that GPU compute security is a very under-studied area compared with CPU compute.
SEO only exists because search engines are user-hostile garbage.
Imagine being able to blacklist domains from your results. That would basically solve the problem, because the first time you encounter spammy garbage you'd simply nuke it forever.

You could even have pre-made open source lists. Basically ublock origin for SEO crap.

In a very real sense, it only happens because it's being allowed to happen.

Glenn seems fair, and he appears to answer a legitimate question reasonably. He's staying within his lane, which is narrow, and responding to a lead question. Both articles are tortured with journalistic misinterpretation. Frankly, you have to be able to contextualize with broader experience. Nothing to do with Trump or SCOTUS. I would bet if you asked Glenn 'Are claims necessarily retroactive or invalid from the get-go,' he would say, 'Absolutely no.' If you have a chance, ask him.

It really depends on the kind of factory. I live in a residential neighborhood with 'factories' right down the street. The factories produce small batch food, artisanal crafts, etc (there's a lovely chocolate factory 10 blocks away). Many sell to large audiences, or have national brands. I don't see what the big deal is at all. The neighborhood is lovely. It is more walkable than 95% of American neighborhoods. It's a historic neighborhood with lovely trees, beautiful architecture, and lovely ornamental details. It is highly priced and inhabited by well-to-do people. There is a natural limit on factory growth (namely lack of space). If a company outgrows its space, it'll have to move somewhere more appropriate and let a smaller growing business occupy its space.

Why fear such factories?

Of course, factories with toxic waste and pollution? Yes those should be built far away from people, but actually, my parents, who live in the suburbs are closer to that sort of thing than I am even though there spot feels more 'open' due to zoning.
Alternatively, see John Allegro's (one of the people who worked on deciphering the Dead Sea scrolls) The Sacred Mushroom and the Cross which posits that Jesus actually was a mushroom.

Assuming you mean identity verification is handled with GPG keys, nobody actually uses that in practice. Even the people that use Usenet today mostly don't.

Email identity is handled de facto by a web of trust anchored by the big domains with no possibility of creating a new trust anchor. You're either managed by Google, Microsoft, or Apple and inherit their trust or you play endless games to not get your mails blocked by default. It's a sad world and didn't need to be this way, but there's no real urge to fix things because the only people who are clamoring to fix email are people who want to encourage folks to use niche experiences like mutt and PRs by mail while the incumbents like Google have no incentive to adopt decentralized trust.
Under ideal circumstances, yes. When say, torrenting, or anything else with non-ideal file access patterns real world speeds are not going to be nearly that high, especially on a consumer-grade drive.
Ask HN: Good Biopunk Books?

Does anyone have recommendations for good fiction books in this genre?
'Ad' doesn't require persuasion to purchase anything. Ads for political candidates (urging you to vote) & many causes (urging you to change other behaviors) are still ads. Often such ads are donated, with no payment for placement.

That said, I think the implicit disclosure via the declaration of affiliation with the site operators – YC – & unique behavior of these posts is sufficient for readers to understand the situation. Even without any label, most people would classify such posts as "job ads".

Whatever harm might accrue to the absolutely densest readers who don't get that seems rather small. Probably less than the harm that other readers might suffer from any crude 'ad' label, which risks leading an even larger group of slightly-less-dense readers to make unwarranted assumptions that such placements are sold for cash via some ad department, or that HN is generally open to paid advertising.

All communication is imperfect, with tradeoffs.
First step would be to move database to a separate server(3rd server) and use the 2 servers to run your application. This way you have some resiliency when one of the server goes down.

A very compelling case and the material for 100% renewables is staggering. How this can be ignored is bewildering.

A discussion at:

https://www.reddit.com/r/collapse/comments/wuc4vg/assoc_prof...

Simon Michaux presents the deck of data showing details of where his calculations are coming from that show even the first generation of renewables to replace fossil fuels is going to outstrip our capacity to source the minerals (lithium, copper, vanadium, manganese, cobalt, etc required for only the first generation of renewable energy) and the amount of energy to be replaced based on efficiencies is exorbitant. Summary: EROI going down, mineral requirements going way up spell issues moving forward.

48V is "very low voltage" and consequently very high current for a given power output. (Power is the product of voltage and current.)

Loss (waste) of the energy that was stored in the batteries is proportional to the square of the current. Higher currents also require thicker wires so that the wires don't melt, making the vehicle heavier and more expensive.

Non-shitty (bidet-cleaned?) EVs use higher voltages so they can have lower currents and therefore have less waste and light-weight wires. Currently around 480V, with 800V - 960V starting to be rolled out.

I disagree that it's a false accusation. YCombinator benefits financially from putting their job postings on the front page, I think we can all agree on that. You seem to disagree that it's "manipulation" to make their job posting look nearly identical to a normal, organic user submission. I think it is a subtle dark pattern and explained my reasoning.
I agree 100%. However note your save games should be safe on steam cloud. Nothing gets stored on geforce now - your virtual instance gets destroyed once you log off. Should be easy to verify via your laptop even if you don't load up the save.

Grandma running pirated Word 2007 on an ancient dust-clogged Dell laptop that her grandson upgraded with a cheap 256GB Lite-On mSATA SSD stolen from a throwaway work computer is probably only getting 125MByte/sec and certainly lower than that due to the plethora of IE addons constantly writing to it.
If we are being pedantic about the exact choice of words, that isn't what you said either. You said "most gov't regulations should be illegal" which is more extreme than just saying "most regulation is bad".
Ya! You can use VMs that use X11 in the guest without issue. X11 also works on the host. Wayland is also working on the host - I haven't tested yet with Wayland guests yet so that's something to try.

There is no "JavaScript" in JMAP in the sense that it's supported by the protocol, and the specification explicitly warns against email clients interpreting JavaScript.

Yup, this is my neighborhood. I can walk down to a corner store gas station. Walk a bit further to a grocery store. Walk to a bakery, walk to a taco shop. I had a back spasm recently and my wife was out with the kids in our car, and I walked to urgent care. Was no big deal at all. Just lovely. On top of the restaurants and services that line the 'big street' next to me, there are several manufacturers of goods. Chocolate shops, woodcrafters, bakeries, some crafty things, textile manufacturer, even a noodle maker. Perfectly lovely neighborhood. Better than 99% I've lived in.

On either fork, anyone can submit proof of your equivocation and get you slashed.

There are currently over 400,000 full-fledged validators. The maximum supported number of validators is the number of ETH divided by 32, or about 3.75 million. Scaling is the reason the limit wasn't made even higher, by lowering the ETH per validator.

If you create a smtpv2 that can guarantee encryption (ok, who cares) but mostly that guarantees the origin of the email, then the gmails of this world should go softer on classifying those emails as spam, and it won’t take long before only spammers and some forgotten box in a closet are using the old smtp, then its death would be imminent.
I played a couple of slowish action games like the Metro series on GeForce Now and couldn’t be happier. Tons of games from my old Steam library, all on my MBP. No more separate gaming rig required.

I don't think it makes sense to use the abstraction. The cloud is not worth it for that IMO. If you are going to do that using a traditional data center model makes more sense otherwise you can't realize the full value. Also all the providers will have different services or lack of. Even worst, you use a mix of SaaS to avoid the reliance. Better to pay the operations cost.

I have no philosophical war against regulation. I never called to get rid of all regulation. I just said most is bad and should be scrapped. That is true. Replacing the bad with good first involves removing the bad. I don't understand why this is controversial. Why is it that we cannot have an honest discussion about this unless one uses the proper code words?

> mouse travels maybe 30-40ms behind my hand

That sounds awful. But it reminds me that the chart I posted is tested using a very exacting tool and even the 3090 has a 30ms latency on 120hz and that's about as good as it gets. So you shouldn't take these numbers in a vacuum but more comparatively. GFN on 120hz is better than a 3060 on native in 60hz. I know it's not compelling for anyone who hates 60hz heh but for people who are okay with 60hz then GFN latency won't feel any different to you.

The Declaration of Independence and Constitution establish that all governments are vulnerable to becoming tyrannical, and the Bill of Rights establishes that people have specific rights that supersede the sovereign bodies that govern them. It insists on the government providing allowance for rights that may be used against it.

Since the Obama administration, any male over the age of 16 we kill anywhere is retroactively considered a legitimate target regardless of any "proof" of their guilt.

> but I don't see how this avoids that problem other than being small enough that nobody is optimizing for your search engine.

Google doesn't have any countermeasures against a lot of what we consider spam and generally user-hostile.

Google could at least try to detect spammy recipes by for example detecting certain keywords (likelihood of it being a recipe) and then downranking it based on length, with the idea that if we're confident it's a recipe it should be short and to the point, and anyone telling their life story on it can go to hell.

Google could detect listicles similarly.

Yes, this can all be gamed, and I will expect there to be an arms race, but it will at least raise the bar and make spam content costlier to produce and require constant maintenance as Google's algorithms get better. Yet, right now, Google isn't even trying any of this, and why would they? Spam typically has ads and/or analytics on it, both which can be Google's and thus benefit them. Why would they ever expend extra engineering effort (thus money) to ultimately earn less money if they're successful?

In addition, the ultimate counter-attack to profit-motivated spam would be to just detect & downrank what gets them paid - ads, affiliate links or analytics, as I explained in previous comments such as https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32434317. All of those often require things that would make them trivially detectable, whether it's ads that must be a third-party script so the ad network can detect fraud, affiliate links which ultimately must lead to a large affiliate domain such as Amazon and sometimes mandate legal disclosures that can be detected, or analytics that likewise rely on a third-party script.

European indigenous psychoactives were primarily deliriant nightshades and amanita muscaria mushrooms - both of which are very interesting to read about but I've never felt compelled to try.

Taking nightshades and "speaking with the devil" seems entirely plausible to what people of that cultural mindset would have experienced. Erowid's Datura experience vault has a collection of first hand accounts of the experience, and they sound quite terrifying: being in a dream-like state for days at a time with heavy amnesia, hallucinations of people who aren't really there, dark ominous imagery and out of body experiences. Much more realistic hallucinations than are reported from psilocybes. See also "flying ointment" for some interesting (nsfw) context to 'witches riding brooms".
