  • I remember there was a suspicion about the nature of these because Tesla have chosen not to be certified by third parties for safety and only posted these in-house crash videos instead, no other data has been shared. It rose some eyebrows because Elon could has dodged the regulations just out of spite and to cut corners in time, money needed for that, but at the same time we don’t know if their own tests are legit and how many of them have been done - all we see is these posts by his SMM team. This conversation about CT safety consists of only one party, Tesla, that has obvious economical interests, so you either trust them or not.



  • Snufkin undoing the cops’ expansionism on natives’ land is rad. Game is short, has it’s downsides as per forum threads about difficult run sequence and being kinda lost on the remote island, but it’s good for everyone who doesn’t even know about moomins, ages 5-99. It’s highlight are watercolor-stylized graphics making the picture look very pretty and good writing, albeit about simple things.


    1. I hear something there or from my friends. It’s funny, but our small Lemmy did make me watch a bunch of stuff, not by posts mostly but by references in comments. MOTHERLAND NEEDS YOU TO MAKE AT LEAST ONE MOVIE REFERENCE PER COMMENT;
    2. I manually download it via qB and keep it seeding OR find it in VK if I’m short on time and it’s there. I don’t care about quality since I have shit for sight and can’t care, but I know how russian dub can either save or ruin things and not having a choice makes me avoid all streaming platfroms altogether, not to say what shitty companies own them and how their contemporary local-produced suggestion are irrelevant to me;
    3. It sits on my non-system larger hard drive. I put it onto some USB stick to take it to where I can watch it with others;
    4. On Win it’s MPC-HC\VLC, on Linux it’s VLC mostly. I’m still in a search of a Linux player that can find and play external subs and dubs itself without me clicking around;
    5. Usually, just from my memory. Sometimes I put notes or send messages to myself at what point I stopped.







  • Another person took a deep dive explaining that, but for me a little imperfection adds value and personality to a person or a product because I can

    • tell them from thousands of replicas and feel like I have an intimete knowledge of them;
    • imagine some story behind it, some depth and a promise of more;
    • accept it, and finally get along with my own imperfections as they are too parts of me.

    I liked these photoes too, but I found it also works nice if you extrapolate it to humans, to history, to nature, to the universe. How these little weird details make us remember things and adore objects and events in some way. It’s like pre-LLM critique of generative AIs.

    And vodka-pizza-mattress can feel a bit personal too because it all carries a mark of a being living there and inviting you to see this part of their life when they are vulnerable, idk.



  • I don’t know how it works with a frequently updating OS. In my mind beaurocrats can become asses about certifying one exact version they inspected and then making users afraid that open source community can inject the next version with viruses and they can’t be sure it’s okay too. Ah, and making each certification a paid service and somehow fucking it up.

    In Russia there are like two projects of local Linux with custom wine that you can buy just like other software, certified by FSB for sensitive business (I believe them being the first pieces of software to get it except specific cryptographic stuff), but I feel the reason it’s getting adopted and certified is because there are some nepotism and illegal connections with money not really changing pockets.




  • That’s when you use the ports placed on the motherboard in a standard verical PC case, meaning the system uses integrated graphics for the visual output instead of deticated videocard. Videocards that are put into MB at 90° are horizontal, right, but in most office setups I handle they are rare nowadays. Videocards are almost exclusively installed when you handle 3d and content rendering in demanding apps, and for office and browser stuff they are too costy after the crypto price hike and in a sanctioned Russia.

    Nettops have horizontal motherboards tho.






  • Yep, it’s no more than a stress test for a robot to keep it’s balance in motion, coupled with some partnership and a nice PR showcase of what it can do in a humanized scenario that we meatbags can relate to.

    Moving stuff in a predictable fashion is easily done with forklift\suction cup robots on rails that can ride floors and climb shelves while being powered from the line 100% of time. Iirc Boston Dynamics did such robots too. Making robots carry stuff around on legs sounds like a c/crazyideas material.

    What they can do then though is use this amount of R&D to build a robot that does need all of that. From automatic surgery machines to rescue scouts and, yes, killbots. Both rough terrain and sensitive tasks need a self-regulating system to orchestrate the motion in all these motors right.
