The Hot sort seems to show new and sligly older content, with an enphasis on new. So I just sort by hot, as the algorithm is pretty good for that.

And mostly on subscribed. All being mostly to discover other things.

Well what if I'm just not inteterested in YouTube music (just because I don't listed to a lot of music)?

It does make the deal a lot worse.

I don't understand your ranting about mozzila. In the wiki page you posted right there :

Any profits made by the Mozilla Corporation will be invested back into the Mozilla project. There will be no shareholders, no stock options will be issued and no dividends will be paid

Where is the profit on the page? The revenue isn't profit, it's how much money they make without the costs.

Then how do you expect a browser to survive without revenue? There are 3 major browser engines on the market today :

  • chromium (backed up by Google, sucking big money)
  • ~~blink~~webkit (baked up by apple, with big money too)
  • Gecko (I think) for Firefox. And it also needs lots of funding.

Al of them suck up huge amount of money.

For revenue, they also have more products than Firefox https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Mozilla_products which also make money or not.

Yep. And the average user doesn't know what a bios update is.

Oh and the average user doesn't know that windows update has bios updates from manufacturers.

What happens when the bios is flashed? Poof the key disappeared...

Nice move Microsoft. Not sure if they have something to prevent the loss of the encryption key or some security, but for those people I hope they don't loose their data due to updates.

Did you even read the article?

The configuration has a powerful cpu and fast ssd. There are multiple benchmark tools used, and 2 encryption methods, software and hardware.

I'm using windows pro, because of hyperv, and gpu virtualisation. And I don't need that security feature.

And windows pro still have some benefits. The group policy, tho most of the changes can still be made in the registry.

Am I mistaken, or did you want to say 50mbps and 10mbps? 50gbps seems way above what a wireless network can do.

For a vpn, your connection through wireless or fiber is exactly the same. The city only provides the fiber infrastructure. When you get Internet, it's through a provider which will use their equipments and main network (they link their network to the city infrastructure, using their devices. At least, it's how it works in France). Unless the provider is the city.

Tho I guess that providers do give data to the state so whatever the case, it would be the same thing.

Well it depends.

Just from the subject: are mobile photos real

(to simplify this and avoid a definitive no, well not talk about photos beeing real or not in numeric form).

Photography is a complicated topic on mobile phones, with plenty of algorithms enhancing what a tiny sensor can deliver.

  • But let's assume there is a phone and algorithm, which manages to represent a photograph as close as possible to what I see.

Are my photos real because they represent what I see at one precise point in time? Because it is what I remember something was?

Or are they not real because of the algorithms interpreting the results to make it look like I see it?

  • Now let's assume I have another phone, like a Samsung or whatever. Such phone may take a picture, but that picture is modified, there is maybe more saturation for the sky and grass, while combining multiple pictures to do HDR... And plenty of other things.

Now are these photos real?

They change what I see, but would that make them less real for you/me? How do you see your pictures?

about the article : When ai/photography manipulation is brought in the question, in order to change the first result :

  • It could slightly change colors, then I guess we could maybe comme back to above, is this interpretation real or not? More or less real?

  • It could be a modification of what and how elements appear in that picture. Here, for me, there isn't any question. The reality of the pictures are completely broken as they do not represent anymore what I could see.

There seems to be a discussion tab for questions on the git page, but it seems a bit dead in there...

I did find a possible answer in the issues but I don't know what it really means.

| PS: RECORD_AUDIO? Voice input?

Yes, exactly. But it's only available on devices having a STT service inbuilt (so with Google services), so I don't know if it actually works, lol.

Fronm this I guess it either used Google online, or some local voice to text included in the Google services.

On Lemmy, the algorithm is also more prone to show newer with less votes comments, when sorting by hot. So it gives more value to those low votes comments.

Then maybe I can make you discover a very nice tool : Winget or chocolatey whichever you want to use. They both can be used in cli.

However, I personally like the WingetUI software. Nice looking and supports winget, chocolatey, scoop and other. It also automatically checks for updates. It can either give you a notification, or maybe even auto update. Tho I'm not sure if it would solve your complete reinstall each time.

To install wingetUI : Search for powershel > open without administrator privilege > type "winget install wingetui" > enter. Follow and read.

Once installed you ca launch it and choose the sources (I recommend selecting winget and chocolatey at least, I like winget better than chocolatey as version numbers are closer to the real one). it also auto updates on launch.

And to install it, just search for it :

You can also install though winget or chocolatey without wingetui, but you'll have to update manually through the cli.
