Sweet and savory is a god tier class of food IMHO. Pineapple on pizza is just the tip of the delicious iceberg. Have you tried peaches with rice and curry? Or raisins in rice? I also like sweet and sour sauce, especially with little pieces of assorted fruits.
My girlfriend hates it, in her opinion the only way to go with savory is salt, although she tolerates pork and pineapple on pizza, since the salty pork overpowers the sweet of the pineapple. But I love it!
One thing to note, if you are using UEFI this is very unlikely to happen. It was designed from the start to have multiple boot options and Windows itself often has multiple entries. It is very rare for a Windows update to mess with any other boot options in UEFI.
You can just use an activation script. Even though technically Windows won’t be activated using the OEM license in a VM, the license is still present on the machine. So legally Windows is still licensed. To get around the thing not automatically activating, an activation script is an easy fix.
This is a good activation script:
Imagine gate keeping Linux, the irony…
Steam works absolutely perfectly on EndeavourOS. No tweaking or anything required, just install and run. It also runs just about any game I ever tried, with troubleshooting as easy as choosing a different version of Proton from the dropdown.
Please send flowers, I just died from cringe
The annoying thing is, a lot of modern battery protection circuits will brick themselves once they read a too low battery voltage. So not only will they not charge anymore, they will never charge, even with new cells. It’s so dumb and meant to prevent 3rd party refurbished battery packs.
I bet it was the jacket that sealed the deal
Yeah it’s the difference between playing an old game today and remembering what it was like to play in the past. Not the same thing at all.
Plus a big part of old games these days is decompiling it, so you can recompile to run with higher framerates, higher resolution and without emulation. It’s also possible to add nice QoL features and entire new game modes.
Just look at what Ship of Harkinian has done with OOT. It looks great, it feels like OOT still, but has the nice quick buttons. And if you want to experience the game like it’s brand new, there is the randomizer. And similar projects exist for other old games.
And there’s also people going through the code, figuring out glitches. And how certain mechanics worked, nobody understood very well back in the day. Discover Easter eggs that were never found.
That’s game preseveration, not some AI fever dream if you squint a bit it kinda sorta looks like the old game.
A lot of the AI stuff I’ve seen from Microsoft also sucks hard and they know it. But they operate under the assumption these LLM systems will get better and better. Like this game thing they admit it sucks now, but imagine what it could be one day. However the reality seems to show more and more the point of rapidly diminishing returns has been reached. Throwing more data and processing at the thing isn’t going to make it a lot better.
They are also so busy inventing new AI features nobody wants. Putting new flashy buttons everywhere and doing awful tech demos. They completely forgot to make actual useful features. For example a thing that happens a lot when working with less computer capable people, is people sending screenshots of Excel data. How awesome would it be if instead of helping write a new signature, the AI would go: “Wow what an asshole, sending a screenshot like that. Here is the original data so you can copy paste.”. Or when trying to send an email without the attachment that really should have an attachment, it warns you. It already does this, but I think it just triggers on certain keywords like attach. This would be an excellent use case for an LLM, where it doesn’t even matter much if it’s wrong some of the time.
For me personally “AI” in the form of LLM can fuck all the way off. It certainly has it’s uses, but this all in use it everywhere for everything has made me hate it. And the misleading marketing making people think it’s basically AGI is wrong on so many levels.
Well we knew the price didn’t include the tarrifs when we saw Europe get absolutely crazy high prices. Higher than the US and a lot higher if we take into account the dollar tanking right now.
Betteridge strikes again
Maybe you should ask your mom
In my experience it will write three paragraphs about the mistake, what went wrong and how to fix it. Only to then output the exact same code, or very close to it, with the same bug. And once you get into that infinite loop, it’s basically impossible to get out of it.
That’s the neat part, you don’t
Many providers have specific clauses for this. Ever since crypto mining became a thing providers have included in general terms you can’t over use the service. And often specifically against using it for crypto mining.
Providers will normally warn users and only kick them off when no explanation is forthcoming.
Usually this applies to shared services, like a VPS. You pay a lower price because you share hardware. But that only works if the hardware is shared fairly. If another user hogs all the resources, the service is no good for anyone. But it can also apply to seemingly dedicated services, like your own server for example. In that case the server is free to be used for whatever, but things like cooling and power are still shared. A regular dedicated server service will be based on typical use and can kick users out who require too much cooling or power. In cases where the resources are legitimately required, they will offer contracts that allow you to use all of the resources all of the time. But in turn you will have to pay a premium for something like that.
On the surface it may seem like a bit of bullshit, but that’s often what allows prices to be as low as they are. So I’m fine with it, as long as it’s made clear beforehand (which in my experience it is)
I don’t even know how they managed this. I regularly create test repos to reproduce bugs in open source software, to go with the bug report. When it contains some random generated credentials only used within that repo, Github freaks out and I need to tell it it’s just testing shit and perfectly fine to publish.
You’d have to be intentionally publicing shit like that.
