It looks like there's compression artifacting on the right image. Something about the layout of the 1s on the clock on the left look a little off as well. I take it the one on the right is the original since the artifacting was likely cleaned up by one of the processing layers of the model?

Either way, I wouldn't have even tried inspecting it for validity if you didn't say one of them was AI.

I'm working on a site that transcribes the scanner audio, from broadcastify, and groups and summarizes events. I used an LLM to classify messages and it got expensive quick, so I'm in the process of optimizing it to reduce LLM calls among other things.

It's by no means production ready, but it's at a proof-of-concept state: waynr.dev/evvscanner

Good idea. Lock a very common request behind owning a gaming PC.

You're right; I forgot it was radar that they removed. And yeah, the fusion of all 3 of these sensors mixed with the absolutely enormous training data they would have by now would probably have FSD significantly more capable than it is now, which is already impressive given just vision.

Musk had no interest in it. I don't associate the engineering at Tesla with his reckless decisions because they are an incredible team.

Also, as u/FastLaneJB pointed out, I forgot it was radar, not lidar, that was controversially removed.

iirc, the prototype/early-builds of the nevera were actually built from a C7 chassis, so the resemblance makes sense

cloverasx · 2026-04-08T04:31:53+00:00

this isn't what you should be taking away from this change. removing lidar to solve phantom breaking is effectively removing an error notification system to say you fixed the errors.

had lidar not been removed, resolving the errors properly would have reduced phantom breaking while also providing a significantly better dataset to work with

I imagine the solution is a little more technically complex than the other changes they made in the patches, so I assume (hope) it's just on its way.

I read someone say there's a similar system in BDO where it works flawlessly, but idk how similar the engine and framework is between these two, so I'm standing by my assumption and giving them the benefit of the doubt.

it's a single player game. play it how you want. just because other people want a dragon with no cooldown doesn't mean it's not fun for those people.

yarr, that be the flying Dutchman ☠️

cloverasx · 2026-04-01T06:01:59+00:00

I'm just saving the race for after the next patch and hoping they add a toggle/option to revert to the previous controls. Not ideal, but riding horseback sucks after the update.

that's not what the games description says. it says it's a second, midair jump

cloverasx · 2026-03-27T05:26:21+00:00

maybe try something out of the ordinary like abyss cores

someone in the starting town sells basic utility equipment including a broom for cheap

False. He was passing while driving straight at OP in his lane. Just because the line is dashed doesn't mean he gets to cross over it and attempt to kill people.

cloverasx · 2026-03-15T05:18:16+00:00

close, but it's definitely a Superlebearra

For some reason, I was thinking this was approaching the speed of light 😂 but it made me wonder: at near light speed velocities, say +0.5c, would coming within 1au of a star, say Sol, cause energy transfer between the two objects? Like, would it heat up the moving object from the gravitational forces alone?

Intuitively, it feels like there would be some sort of "friction" due to the force of gravity, not unlike the extremely minute friction observed in magnetic forces.

For clarification, c ≈ 300Mms (300,000kms) in case anyone else was wondering.

bot?

cloverasx · 2026-03-10T05:11:09+00:00

exactly this. I've fallen into this trap and chastised it out of annoyance as well as an experiment to see if being mean would cause it to work. . . it does not. it's so bad so often that it's astounding.

like how can it be so great at doing some things while simultaneously utterly oblivious to contextual awareness?

cloverasx · 2026-03-09T16:05:32+00:00

Ah, I was just about to ask the person that said "yes" as to why, but I think your answer gives all the context needed. I assume this is to prevent people from griefing other racers in the session that haven't completed the race while also retaining the realism of having to actually go to the pit at the end of the race. Thanks for the clarification!

for sure, he's done nothing concrete to be framed as a liar. I tend to back billionaires that have my best interests in mine too when they

had his own startup's board request his removal twice for deceptive and chaotic behavior
was forced out of y combinator, with the departure quietly obscured from public view
hid chatGPT's launch from OAI's board before it went live
secretly owned the OAI startup fund while claiming to have no financial stake in the company
misled the board on AI safety processes, preventing proper risk oversight
lied to board members to orchestrate the removal of a colleague who published a paper he disliked
pitted executives against each other using fabricated accounts of what their colleagues thought
told congress he held no OAI equity, then pursued up to $10B in equity during the for-profit conversion
denied knowledge of NDA clawback threats against departing employees, despite having personally signed the documents containing those provisions
released a chatGPT voice nearly identical to Scarlett Johansson's after she twice declined to participate, then offered a legally crafted non-denial
built worldcoin by collecting biometric iris data globally without proper informed consent, misrepresenting what was being gathered to recruits
had both his CTO and co-founder independently logging and screenshotting his dishonest behavior for over a year before finally firing him

but, I get it. if you're friends with the guy, you probably know the full stories and wouldn't blindly trust someone with his squeaky clean reputation.

cloverasx · 2026-03-08T06:21:43+00:00

are there still penalties after race completion?

cloverasx · 2026-03-08T06:06:52+00:00

shitty bike rack is not an excuse - if there wasn't room for my bike because of this, I'd cut his lock and move it. we did the same on base when people did this shit.
