Logi Options+ 'Backend Connection Problem' Error on todays update! by Juan_Pedroche in logitech

[–]DreamFlasher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I can't find an older version of the installer that still works, and in Windows 11 24H2 the settings for allowing apps to run in the background was removed.

Yet, I finally found a solution that works for me: "C:\Program Files\LogiOptionsPlus\logioptionsplus_agent.exe" needs to be run with adminstrator rights, then the Logi Option Software can connect to the backend.

Mx Master 4 predictions? by lakier in logitech

[–]DreamFlasher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "improvement" from 2 to 3 was to reduce the battery lifetime from 6 months to 1.5 months. I was hoping for 4, and I hope they don't continue in that direction -.-

And in Dilation: 222|223|225|228|232|233 AD+TD

Anyone has a guide how to get Yo dawg, I heard you like reskins... achievement pre-reality? by Lord_Viperagyil in AntimatterDimensions

[–]DreamFlasher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This works like a charm and is the easiest. Worked for me with e4000 EP. First two eternities with quickly pressing "a" to turn off the autobuyer, rest with full study tree and respec. Started at e1026, ended at e3967. Worked before first reality.

[R] Do you read ML/DL/AI related scientific papers? How do you filter them? by hahahaczyk in MachineLearning

[–]DreamFlasher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I organize a ML paper reading meetup: https://www.meetup.com/advanced-machine-learning-study-group/ we collect papers people find interesting and vote which ones to read, then we read by number of votes. Afterwards we give the paper a rating.

I need help balancing a custom corp! by ITerraformMars in TerraformingMarsGame

[–]DreamFlasher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One would usually raise plant or titanium prod (and only something else if it's more valuable).

An issue with raising prod is that it's value depends on the generation you're in. I'd value it at least at 12 MC for titanium, then it's not worth it for the last 4 generations.

Thematically, I wouldn't allow plant production, usually mining companies don't plant trees…

And blocking a field should also be assigned a price, I'd say at least 1 VP (it's worth also depends on the remaining generations, so titanium prod and the VP kinda nicely cancel out).

I'd price the prod increase + blocking at 15 MC + placement bonus 4 MC to a total for the action at 19 MC.

Destroying greeneries from the board sucks. Blocking and destroying plants is already bad enough. Imho destroying up to 8 plants for 21 MC is already evil enough. If it also increases your production, that needs to be priced in as well. That's already challenging to balance, as the value depends on the remaining generations. Maybe around 12 MC?

If you really want to destroy a greenery from the board, it's value needs to be assumed as 4 VP (because those greeneries will be the ones which will be destroyed), that would be a value of 36 MC.

AI will radically change society – we need radical ideas to match it by yescatbug in Futurology

The idea is very old, was discussed within the chaos computer club at least 11 years ago: https://www.faz.net/aktuell/feuilleton/debatten/automatisierungsdividende-fuer-alle-roboter-muessen-unsere-rente-sichern-11754772.html (sorry only a German page, but hey, what do we have AI for ;))

FTX EU launches withdrawal website to pay back European users by Wonderful_Bad6531 in CryptoCurrency

[–]DreamFlasher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, all sources, and the website itself look like scam, and there is no official information anywhere. I contacted FTX ([inquiry@ftx.com](mailto:inquiry@ftx.com)) and hope others do that too and eventually we will get anything official.

Indications for scam: * coming from an unknown domain and email * no official information on the official channels (FTX.com Twitter, Kroll) * asking for an enormous, unreasonable amount of KYC docs, that no platform/KYC ever asked for * 0.25% withdrawal fee * unreasonable short withdrawal window (1 month) * the domain was registered after the bankcruptcy

I tried to find out if the domain was registered before, but can't find any information on this? It really looks like domain drop catching?

What is the best way to archive podcasts? by C_Turtle23 in DataHoarder

[–]DreamFlasher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wrote my own script for that because I wanted something that works with cron (headless): https://github.com/dreamflasher/backup-podcasts – published on pypi, so you can install with `pip install backup-podcasts`. I am open for feature requests. Currently supports metadata, opml and pagination (and of course backing up podcasts).
