DB is the definite proof that German efficiency is a lie, but tourists using urban transports in big cities will usually have a good experience. Even the public transports in Berlin have got their shit together in the last few years, even if S-Bahn/DB are still a level below BVG.
Apple is a sect not a company, and people behind ICEBlock are one step away from distributing the kool aid.
ICEBlock was also lying about how location services work on Android. I don’t know if they dropped that lie.
If you work in tech in Europe, lots of people are already on mastodon.
Yes. And photos should also have a disclaimer about what kinds of edits were done, regardless if they were done manually or by AI.
I keep seeing stupid ideas in social media because people believe edited photos match reality.
In a glass half full perspective, it won’t send all your data to Google’s servers. The part they are not saying is that the data even remotely related to your query is going to be sent to Google anyway. They are claiming they will delete the data after 72 hours, which I believe they will for now, but knowing them, there’s probably going to be a sneaky policy update in a couple of years.
Congratulations, your noob user is now using JPEG-XL. It’s not working on old devices, or any mainstream browser besides Safari. The less mature library also has a bug that allows for RCE and now everyone is running a cryptominer.
Now you say, but webp is supported everywhere, so let’s go with that. Now the noob is using wepb for a bunch of rasterised vector graphics with 4 or 5 flat colors, and he’s wasting more disk space than before.
So I repeat, if you need one size fits all, PNG is better, it works everywhere, and it’s even more efficient in cases where lossless graphics matter the most.
The title is hyperbole. PNG is lagging behind modern lossless formats in terms of new features.
This doesn’t mean it’s a bad format or that it shouldn’t be used. In fact, it should still be the default unless you need something it doesn’t support or really need to reduce file size.
Next time just shoot an movie industry exec, the sentence will be the same. /s (mandatory: don’t actually shoot anyone please)
The same legal terms might mean vastly different things in Germany and the US. This is often the case in arbitration and warranty clauses.
EFF’s lawyers don’t have the legal expertise to help a company based in Germany.
The main limitation is the VRAM, but I doubt any model is going to be particularly fast.
I think phi3:mini on ollama might be an okish fit for python, since it’s a small model, but was trained on python codebases.
If you want to know more about how unhinged the dude is, I recommend reading this email thread in the DNG mailing list.
Currently it works just as frontend for git, but it theoretically supports other backends too. Allegedly Google has their own experimental internal cloud+db based backend for big monorepos.
