LiDAR, radar and infra-red may still perform worse on children due to children being smaller and therefore there would be fewer contact points from the LiDAR reflection.

I work in a self driving R&D lab.

Do you go to the cloud district often? Oh what am I talking about, of course you don't!

Imagine going on the piracy Lemmy community and preaching the moral wrongs of copying.

Seriously though, DRM is a cancer. I usually pirate my books from LibGen, but I buy them on the Kobo store at the same time to support the author. It's easy to strip DRM from Kobo and they're better than Amazon, but I would really prefer not to support a store with DRM in the first place.

Can anyone recommend a DRM-less store? Something akin to GOG for books.

I think most people have given up and use subtitles on all the time.

Kobo with KOreader is a great option. KOreader can connect to your WiFi and you can rsync your library to the device.

Use an adblocker. Unless, you mean people go on the internet without using protection?

In this whole article and there wasn't even a single sentence on how these AI detectors could have false positives. Cheating or plagiarism are incredibly serious accusations and they can ruin a young person's career before it even gets started. But of course these corpo types don't give a shit. They'll keep on pretending that they ChatGPT "always has a tell".

That's not even to mention that there are plenty of ways of using AI that are not cheating. You can use it to proofread, to edit and to critique your essay.

It's absolutely insanity that this feature was removed. I stopped using Nautilus because of this.

I actually got better performance in BG3 with my Arch system compared to Windows. The game crashes to desktop every 10 minutes in windows and runs relatively stable in Linux.

If you look at a map of China and the Pacific you can see that the "first island chain" of US allies totally surrounds China. From their military and strategic point of view they are being contained.

Now if China were to control the island of Taiwan they would break that containment. It's very likely they care more about the strategic position rather than whatever it is they say about wanting to reunite with the Taiwanese. They don't give a shit about the Taiwanese, they just want the island.

You just reminded me of that maze rotation puzzle where the controls for rotation were behind a very long loading screen. That was just pure torture. I almost gave up on the game right there. Wtf were the devs thinking?

I'm skeptical of this. I can't imagine the mechanics of "betraying Jabba the Hutt" will live up to the dread that character is supposed to inspire.

Both are amazing RPGs. Highly recommend checking them out.

No company would use ML to classify who's the most professional looking candidate.

1. Anyone with any ML experience at all knows how ridiculous this concept is. Who's going to go out there and create a dataset matching "proffesional looking scores" to headshots?
2. The amount of bad press and ridicule this would attract isn't worth it to any company.

It's two people when it comes to Uber though (for now).

Orwell's axe to grind was literal Soviet communism. He came into close contact with them in the Spanish civil war.

I'm a millennial and I can't really tell the difference between SD and HD. Do you mean like when YouTube switches to 360p instead of 1080?
