NVENC has a slow preset:

As they expand the NVENC options that are exposed on the command line, is it getting closer to CPU-encoding level of quality?

I got one of their 100W chargers and it’s awesome. Can charge my MacBook from work, but is smaller than the bundled Mac charger.

Can power my personal surface + phone + wife’s phone.

It’s great!

Ain’t nobody got time for that.

This is really weird phrasing that pretends that Israel has no responsibility for their actions.

They chose to do this, they are responsible for what they’ve done.

Clearly they mean that they want the growth to be “sustainable”, not the company…

From the article:

The bad news is that the 6 GHz wireless spectrum uses shorter wavelengths. Short wavelengths are great for fast data transfers at close range, So, they’re great for connecting to your Wi-Fi 7-enabled HDTV a few feet away from your router

With a range that short, you’re not going to be doing much roaming around. It obviously has some use cases, but unless you need to be streaming data it doesn’t make a lot of sense.

The example we are discussing in this thread is transferring data off of a high res/high performance camera. For many situations this can be done after filming is completed, in which case a cord still makes a lot more sense. Hence my joke.

For live broadcasting it could be useful, but the range still seems quite limiting.

And the external wireless data transfer pack can be connected to the camera by a long thin piece of metal. Maybe we could call it a “cord”. And why stop there, it could be disconnected from the camera when you’re not transferring data.

I love that you found this workaround, but arguably that code path should do the admin check, too.

The annoying thing is that the annoying guys are more likely to get a date, while they just go about their day. Not because they are better, or because their methods are good, but purely because they approach more people.

I hate making people feel uncomfortable (no matter their gender), so I always struggled finding “spontaneous” dates, or even dancing with strangers at a club/party.

The only thing that really worked for me was using dating apps, where both parties have implicitly indicated that they are looking for dates in general (because they’re on the app) and explicitly indicated that they are interested in each other (by liking their profile, or whatever).

Although I’ve heard the apps have all gotten worse lately, I wouldn’t really know, as I found someone on Tinder years ago, and now we’re happily married.

Which, unfortunately, is far too often. In my recent experience…

Needs more baguette!

Thanks DALL-E

Why is this “news”?

Just don’t go on Xitter and you won’t have these “problems”…

My only problem with Oppenheimer is that they should have issued earplugs upon entering the theater. Shit hurt my ears.

Like, I get that bombs are loud, but I don’t need to actually feel pain and probably damage my hearing to get the picture.

It would be awesome if someone had been querying it with the same prompt periodically (every day or something), to compare how responses have changed over time.

I guess the best time to have done this would have been when it first released, but perhaps the second best time is now…

Yeah, can we please just stop talking about him?

Like, especially for things that have absolutely nothing to do with him…

hi, kikoma

C#

Exiting with a cool ~$9m. Not too shabby.

And since he’s been there since before the IPO, he’s probably done pretty well for himself, regardless.

Most scripting languages are interpreted, not compiled. It’s not a criticism of them, but it is a tradeoff that is good to understand.

It seems like you are the one who is conflating terms like “script kiddie” with “scripting language” and adding some negative connotation that isn’t necessarily implied.

Scripting languages are usually easier to learn, have simpler syntax, and abstractions that hide complexity. These make them easier to get started in, but the downside is they are generally slower (performance-wise) than their compiled counterparts.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scripting_language

A scripting language, or interpreted language, is interpreted at runtime, rather than compiled.

It is not derogatory, and is simply a fact about languages like Python and JS.
