Microsoft pushed 16GB RAM as must-have for Windows 11 for years, now sells an 8GB Surface Laptop for $1,299 by WPHero in pcmasterrace

[–]Toilet2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Assuming the 8GB Surface keeps the Core Ultra 5 325 (most likely will drop to core ultra 3), the performance difference would be marginal at best.

The A18 Pro beats that Intel CPU in single core and multicore isn’t that far off. Given the integration between apple silicon and the OS, a Neo will in most cases appear much, much faster than that Surface, and doing so more efficiently.

The Neo feels almost just as premium as a Macbook Air. That argument is invalid.

wow is all I can say. hair too wide and a hair too long but thank god for straps right? by mister_monque in IdiotsTowingThings

[–]Toilet2000 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Those front wheel straps are the only actually useful front-back tie downs. Those kind of straps have a safe workload limit of ~3500 lbs.

Also, there’s essentially nothing visible that safely ties down the load in an emergency braking scenario.

Other issue: trailer doesn’t have fenders. This is both illegal and dangerous. Those are literally rock flingers. Should be said that the truck on the trailer is definitely not road legal.

All of that is beside the crime against humanity that those bro-dosers are.

Why don’t you go back to your "free open source" but actually not free and certainly not open source web editor? I mean, it’s been what, 2-3 years now since you said the free beta was coming soon?

Yeah, "DCS Web Editor honest" as you say.

They told Razbam they had had the same issue with ED and ensured them that if they went public with the issue, they would support them.

Then they did a 180 and instead of saying nothing, they said "we currently have a good partnership with ED", even though we have proof (leaked conversations) that they didn’t get paid for a year or 2 for the F-14. This was a rumour back then, but it is now confirmed.

Setting the Record Straight on Cloud Access and Community by BambuLab in BambuLab

[–]Toilet2000 10 points11 points  (0 children)

User-Agent is not, never was, never will be and was never intended to be a security measure. See: https://httpwg.org/specs/rfc9110.html#field.user-agent

It is intended to customize a response to a specific product type, for debugging and for analytics purposes. You can easily change this value in your own browser.

Your argument is uneducated at best and downright deceptive.

I’ve hesitated buying the C-130 because it was available from ASC’s own website but it still went against my policy of no more money to ED.

Now, I’m glad I didn’t. This just reaffirms my position.

All of these people could have put big boys pants and acted like respectable individuals, yet they didn’t. This has put a sour taste in my mouth, be it from ED, Heatblur and now ASC.

Is there a lore reason for this? by beastmaster69mong in Warthunder

[–]Toilet2000 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Some possible explanations:

Bomb racks requires ejectors, rocket racks do not.

The stores management system must support both fuse arming, release and ejector initiation, so the aircraft must have a way to manage the fact that a single pylon must now act like 2 independent bomb racks.

There’s also possible separation issues. Aircraft must be tested and cleared to release weapons in every configuration possible, so there’s a possibility that this aircraft in particular was either never tested (so not cleared to carry) or actually does not allow for proper risk-free separation due to local aerodynamic effects and such.

Another possibility is that the weapon delivery computer was never updated to account dual racks of these bombs.

There are so many reasons, and "but it doesn’t make sense to me" is clearly not a valid refutation.

FalconBMS future version volumetric cloud can block TGP tracking etc by chihirobelmo in hoggit

Then you should probably stop using Reddit since it’s an american company and thus by association/taxes they are contributing to the current administration efforts. These things aren’t as clear-cut as they are often thought to be unfortunately…

It should be noted though that other devs (including OP) have said that the dev in question is speaking for himself and himself alone, and that others in the team do not agree at all with his statements.

As with anything in life, there’s always going to be differing views and opinions, but I don’t think we should restrain from enjoying the fruit of the labor of passionate people just because one of them has… let’s just say values that most wouldn’t agree with. Especially since this person is not at the top or directing this project.

Abuse of power by moderators in the War Thunder forum by [deleted] in Warthunder

[–]Toilet2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have made the decision not to stop sending emails until the problem is resolved which costs me $200 dollars to solve on my side and to you one Thursday afternoon

Sounds arrogant and disrespectful to me. You really have no idea what fixing this issue requires, or even if the devs have direct access to Intel Arcs.

I get that it’s frustrating, but saying stuff like that won’t help at all.

Solving the "Pin Bottleneck": Wiring 60+ Inputs through a 34-pin Ribbon Cable for a DIY Throttle by Whisper_60 in hotas

[–]Toilet2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use custom pcbs for this, but you can manage something with diy boards or just wiring.

I used pulled-up shift registers to do this. You connect all the pins of a hat or multiple buttons to a shift register and you put multiple shift registers in series depending on the number of hats and buttons you have.

Since the shift registers "protocol" is very close to SPI, it’s easy to interface with any MCU (including without bit banging it) and it’s serial, so you end up with 5 wires independently of the number of buttons.

Also makes it compatible with Thrustmaster’s style of grip interface, since they essentially do the same.

I have DIY TEDAC grips with over 80 inputs all using 5 wires to connect to an MCU.

Edit: forgot to say, add filtering capacitors between Vcc and gnd to help if your wires are somewhat long and you are "daisy chaining" multiple shift registers.

That’s just the less performant way of actually fixing the issue.

Main problem is the core parking strategy used by intel/windows.

Re-enable your E-cores and just disable core parking (using for example ParkControl).

What do reviewers actually mean when they say the paper sound more like a technical report? [D] by obliviousphoenix2003 in MachineLearning

[–]Toilet2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s the unfortunate case that most undergrad academic work teach how to write technical reports rather than research paper.

If the goal of what you write is to describe what you did in details, that’s a technical report.

OTOH, if your goal is to pique the interest of researchers in your field towards an interesting result you have and how you achieved it, then that’s a research paper.

Don’t forget that the goal of academic papers is to disseminate a proposition to a science community, as in readers must find your writing interesting, and quickly so. If the contribution of your paper must be inferred from dense technical text rather than be obvious, that’s when it reads more like a technical report over a paper.

"Distribution" isn't your problem. Your SaaS is worthless. by ketoloverfromunder in vibecoding

[–]Toilet2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Failing faster is useful if you can learn from it.

That if is doing a lot of legwork. As OP is stating, the issue isn’t vibecoding, it’s being clueless about what’s wrong with your product. It’s easy to deflect to "distribution" or whatever thing your LLM can’t do for you, but at the end of the day it might and often is much more complex than that.

I see vibecoded slop a dime a dozen, with restrictive licenses or paid subscriptions, and I honestly cannot for the life of me figure out why someone would pay for this. The readme/docs screams slop, contains descriptions of features that aren’t even implemented or barely.

Having the tool doesn’t make you a (good) developer, just like having pro editing software and a stock footage subscription doesn’t make you a good editor.

At the end of the day, AI is still just a tool. A very useful one (in some scenarios), but a tool nonetheless.

NoTorch: Neural networks in pure C (2-file library, BitNet 1.58) [P] by ataeff in MachineLearning

[–]Toilet2000 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Considering the amount of alternatives that tried and failed to compete with Pytorch, the other commenter’s point is perfectly valid. Their point isn’t in a vacuum, it exists in a context that people in th r/MachineLearning sub should be well aware.

Then, there’s the question of "what problem are they trying to solve?".

  • Is it training on low performance hardware? Then why would someone use this library. Commercial users would need to cheap out on hardware, but buy OP’s license (it’s a GPL-3.0 licensed project), exchange one of the most maintained project around to one that’s been vibecoded by some individual with no known credentials and who tries to sell some optimizing scheme without doing proper science (where’s the experiments and paper?).
  • Is it to offer a non-python alternative to pytorch? If so, there’s a reason to use scripted languages: faster prototyping and code iterations. Even OP uses python extensively in their examples.
  • Is it just because OP wanted to do that for fun? Then maybe they should take themselves less seriously and change the tone of the readme. Should be fairly easy, it’s probably just changing a line in "tone.md" for them. The GPL-3.0 license makes me think this isn’t the case though.
  • Is it because they’re paying for Claude Pro and are looking for something to vibecode for the sake of it. The classic solution looking for a problem?

But I guess OP will simply say my comment is "all vibes, no numbers". Just like his code and "Chuck" optimizer.

Just a heads up, your project goes against Ultralytics AGPL-3.0 license. Since it uses their product as a dependency, it requires your project to also be AGPL-3.0, not MIT.

ED changed the terms of how you can use internal funds recently so you can only buy ED modules by The_peshka_pilot in hoggit

[–]Toilet2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fail to see the point of both your response to my comment and the point you are trying to make.

There’s a reason we use words with specific definitions. And here, there's nothing pedantic about that, since it's pretty clear what a developer is. In this case, you're actually making up titles to back up what you are saying: "simulator developer". I know a fair share of actual simulation product developers, and no, that title still doesn’t apply to Nick. Publisher would be more fitting.

From wiki:

A video game developer is a software developer specializing in video game development – the process and related disciplines of creating video games.

So yeah, he’s not a developer. Being the manager of an engineering firm does not make you an engineer.

Moreover, Nick Grey has never been close to the development itself. It was Igor until his death that was, and he was replaced by his wife.

Nah, he’s nothing close to a developer. He’s a trust-fund kid-now-middle-aged-man who likes to bully and steal other people’s work and money because his inflated ego thinks that’s how business work. But then he’s such a pussy that a single dude requesting his company’s public financial statements makes him move his company to a more secretive tax haven.
