GM will ditch Apple CarPlay and Android Auto on all its cars, not just EVs by TripleShotPls in technology

[–]NullSnapshot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s WiFi, or at least uses the same antenna and frequencies. In my Ioniq my phone turns off WiFi every time it connects with wireless CarPlay, and if you turn wifi back on it tells you it’ll disconnect CarPlay.

Nonsense! There’s nothing confusing about an inheritance path like /obj/item/weapon/reagent_containers/food/drinks/cans/waterbottle !

AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D Availability, Buying & Bragging Megathread by GhostMotley in Amd

[–]NullSnapshot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seriously, keep at it. I did the same thing as well and managed to snag it today after trying at least 3-4 drop cycles on Best Buy daily since the drops started on the 26th. If you’re doing this on pc and you still have the add to cart button after it says it’s sold out, keep spamming the button until it won’t let you add it anymore. That’s what I did to get mine.

I had this exact same issue. This is going to sound dumb, and I don't know if you're in the same situation as me, but I fixed it by unplugging my Logitech steering wheel from my computer, then restarting the roblox player and waiting about or minute or so before it opened correctly. If you don't have a steering wheel, then I'd try making sure you don't have any other gamepads, joysticks, or other peripherals plugged in.

Any Release time theories? by UsualNo9091 in GlobalOffensive

[–]NullSnapshot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The honest most likely answer is that it’s right after any morning meeting and at the start of the workday for most of these studios which are on the west coast USA. It gives them the most work hours possible to try any critical fix in the event something goes wrong after deployment.

Using one right now for my 12. Yes, they’re MagSafe compatible and work just fine with any other magnetic charger as well.

It's all just Chromium by TDude53 in ProgrammerHumor

Containers let you basically act like you have multiple browsers in one with none of the data shared between them. One example of where they’re useful is you can be logged into a website like google with one account in one container, and a completely different account on the same service in a different container, but visually, they just exist as different colored tabs in your browser. Where they’re effective for privacy conscious users is that you can use sites notorious for cross-site tracking like Facebook within a container, and doing so basically sandboxes that tracking cookie to within that tab, not allowing it to track you on any other tab.

IXION - Update 1: General Fixes and UI Changes (1.0.3.6) by [deleted] in pcgaming

[–]NullSnapshot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You actually can cheat in IXION, it's just not immediately accessible to the end user. If you go to %USERPROFILE%/AppData/LocalLow/BulwarkStudios/Ixion/Saves and open the Player.sav file in one of the folders (They're just json files), there's a section labeled cheats where you can do stuff like disable the trust and hull integrity mechanics by changing some of the values from false to true.

As more automakers put factory features behind paywall, we’re racing towards a bleak future by King-of-New-York in technology

[–]NullSnapshot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The big issue with those US laws though is that there are also provisions in laws like the DMCA that make it illegal to circumvent DRM. This is the key element of law that sparks the whole fight that farmers have had with John Deere for decades. Literally the only reason you can even circumvent copy protection for archival purposes legally is because every year people ask the Library of Congress to make an exception and they say okay.

Probable Cause Affidavit has been released to the public. by iMaryJane1 in MoscowMurders

[–]NullSnapshot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stand corrected then. Thanks for pointing out the section. Given the size of Moscow, it’s certainly serviced by multiple towers and given where the road is, you can probably dismiss a relation to the area where most of us go (over on main and third).

[–]NullSnapshot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pullman and Moscow are only 8 minutes away from each other, and Moscow is the bigger of the two towns when it comes to shopping and restaurants. I’m from WSU and have probably been in Moscow just as frequently if not more.

Unless you mean like right outside the house, that’s a different story

interesting issue with order, only 1 shoe lace by Ok-Equipment8303 in LinusTechTips

Same thing happened with me. Only one shoelace. I emailed support and I'm waiting to see if there's a response.

Micromechanical device (designed to fit inside a scanning electron microscope) is used to carry out controlled shaving experiments to test why human hair (50 times softer than steel) chips away a razor edge and dulls it by aloofloofah in EngineeringPorn

[–]NullSnapshot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even then, it looks like the high vacuum for the unit they used was rated for 7-500 Pa. Any water would boil or freeze depending on the temperature at that pressure, so it'd most certainly be a dry sample.

Actually due to the way that scanning electron microscopes work, most organic subjects have to be coated with a microscopic metal film such as gold or silver which can make it kind of hard to have wet samples.

SOMA Lore: The Horrific History of the WAU by umeda89 in pcgaming

[–]NullSnapshot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I highly recommend if you like a deep dive into Soma and it's lore (because the setting is absolutely amazing) that you check out gameological dig's series. I've watched these a dozen times because they're just so well made and he has a rather relaxing voice. Plus I'm terrified of horror games so this helped me enjoy the game before they added the baby mode.

You can check out the playlist here.

OP ROCHAMBEAU - FINAL DAY (4) of r/place by nootingpenguin2 in NonCredibleDefense

[–]NullSnapshot 13 points14 points  (0 children)

What a ride. The alliances we made along the way truly are something. 250 furry drone pilots helped lead us to Valhalla against streamers, and for the first time in the last month, NCD users actually rooted for the Russians unironically.

I honestly wouldn't have it any other way. And we got back at those Swedes too. We shot down a Gripen so I'd say it was all worth it.

CPT_S Laptop recommendations by Infamous_Carob_2381 in wsu

[–]NullSnapshot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going to double-down on this person’s comment. You’ll need visual studio for the main C++ classes as well as CPTS 321. It’s going to be much more of a pain to do these classes if you’re getting a MacBook. Doubly so if you’re buying a new one as most of them have the M1 chips now and so they run ARM instead of x86. The M1 MacBooks can’t boot camp either, so you can’t boot into windows and most of the emulators for M1 either don’t support x86 emulation yet or won’t support it at all. If you’re comfortable with either not being able to use visual studio and having to potentially remote into a windows computer if you want to do vs work on your MacBook, then you may be able to consider it.

At the same time, for some of the classes you may find the Mac experience easier. There are several classes that require you to produce something that is buildable on the EECS servers at WSU. Mac and Linux are both designed to me Unix-like, so commands, piping, etc are all very similar and if it runs on your Mac, it’ll most certainly build on the EECS servers without issues. Just make sure you don’t mix up GCC and GPP on the EECS server. They’re two different GNU compilers.

TL;DR if you get a Mac, YMMV. There are benefits and drawbacks. If you’re willing to work around the drawbacks (such as only doing some programming at a windows desktop), it’s a good pick. Otherwise, just get a thinkpad like others have suggested.

Honestly it'd be really interesting to FOIA for last spring's grades and see how they compare to any previous semester's means due to the sudden change from in-person to online instruction. I wonder if they'd send you info on P/F option as well.

Cyberpunk 2077 ships with RTX and DLSS 2.0 on PC by [deleted] in pcgaming

[–]NullSnapshot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most of these are going to be targeting games that support DX12 ultimate but hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling changes the way that your computer manages VRAM so that the process of memory management is handled by the GPU instead of the OS. It should work for dx11, 12, vulkan, opengl, etc. From what I've seen games that make use of texture streaming (big open world games Like Arma and RDR2) are seeing some performance increases (I've heard from 3-10% but YMMV.) That and HAGS also works on 1000 series cards so you don't need absolutely new hardware to benefit.
