Because they bent over backwards to help the music industry monetize or restrict their music in other people's videos, and the music industry knows how important YouTube is to them financially these these days.
I have to imagine that YouTube is going to eventually follow in the footsteps of some other video sites and begin injecting ads directly into the video stream in real time at the encoder as it streams out to the users. That would make ad blocking virtually impossible.
Outside of a few enclaves, there's little push to make games connected online. Those enclaves tend to be centered around large media companies.
Don't get me wrong, I've done plenty of multiplayer, but I don't like it exclusively. I'd rather the devs spend an extra six months polishing gameplay over polishing netcode. Or give the networking funds over to the story devs so I can have some of my in-game actions reflected meaningfully in the story. None of this pallet-swapped outfit or "moral compass" bull. Meaningful reflection.
You must be old, like me. Players in their 10's-20's don't care much for single player games anymore, it's all about online PvP (in whatever form that takes for any given genre) for the vast majority of them. Just look at the top grossing and top played games (including F2P games like LoL, Hearthstone, Fortnite BR, etc). All multiplayer. The last "Huge" single player game I can think of was Zelda BotW. Doom, Fallout 4 before that but none of those have any staying power with the general gaming public.
If an American company made cars there, I'd worry about substandard materials substitution, like the Kobe Steel scandal but far worse and more common. Also, their designs would almost certainly be stolen and reused by domestic companies
If? Ford and Chevrolet (Buick and Cadillac) both make cars there that are then imported into the US.
He just did a sponsored video for a vacuum cleaner. I don't think Tunnel Bear being owned by McAfee is going to sway him on rejecting their sponsorship and ad money.
You can't do this in the US either. Not sure where you get your info from but maybe research a little before you spout next time.
Sure you can so long as it is a private sale (except for a handful of states that regulate private sales). Typically only FFLs have to do background checks.
Absolutely not. Fully automatic weapons are highly restricted and require quite a lot of paperwork, taxes, and hoop jumping to purchase, if they are even legal in your state.
The boiling a frog thing is a myth. Thermal regulation by relocation is a big part of how they survive. I'm sure lobsters aren't too fond of it either but they can't really do much about it.
The anti microsoft bullshit here at slashdot is very tired. what a lazy writeup this is about a real technology. poopooing machine learning as though its nothing when its most definitely not. lame journalism.
Don't you know the best and the brightest are only on/.? More than every academic and corporate research center in the world combined. If someone in a/. comment or summary poo-poo's AI, then that's the final word.
From TFA: The trip, which took place on a luxury bus outfitted with a supply of vegan doughnuts and coal-infused kombucha, was known as the “Comeback Cities Tour.”
Vegan doughnuts. Coal-infused kombucha. Wherever it is these people think they're going to relocate to, it looks like they're taking Silicon Valley with them.
I mean, you can't just pull them out cold turkey, they would go into shock. You have to ease them into it slowly. Like putting a fish in a new aquarium.
It is an amplification attack. The attacker sends a few bites in the request, with a spoofed IP. The server responds to the spoofed IP address with a flood of data the attacker requested. It's like calling pizza hut and having 100,000,000 pizzas delivered to your enemy's house.
It depends on the job. If you spend your time running cable or installing access points, for example, then it's traditionally a blue collar job, working at a terminal in an office, white collar.
The line is pretty much where it's always been: White color jobs are generally jobs that can be performed in an office setting while blue collar jobs are jobs that are not. Blue collar jobs are mostly made up of jobs in the manufacturing or service industries. The names come from the time when the phrases were coined. "blue collar" referring to the blue work shirts or overalls often worn in manufacturing, white collar referring to dress shirts. Then there is healthcare which, outside of physicians, has always kind of been it's own thing (sometimes in the past referred to as pink color). Pay and education has never been part of the definition. There are many low paying white collar jobs and many high paying blue collar jobs. Just look back at the unionized industries like steel and automotive back in their heydays. Yes today we have less manufacturing jobs than ever before, but there are still millions of "blue collar" workers in service, construction, transportation, labor, and skilled labor jobs.
The do wear out, but only on writes, and the controllers are smart enough to balance it out well and reserve spare capacity for cells the fail early. And in a lot of real world workloads writes as a percentage or stored data is fairly low.
Yea not saying that they won't wear out, but there seems to be this recurring theme here and on other tech forums that SSDs are unreliable compared to HDD because of their limited write life, but it's just not what we are seeing in real world use.
The last assault weapons ban established by Pres. Clinton in the 1990s, and which lasted for a decade, was widely studies and found to have zero effect on gun violence.
Not only that, it had a Streisand effect on the whole issue. You didn't hear much about "assault weapons" like AR15's prior to politicians turning them into an issue in the 90's so they could pass the AWB and act like they accomplished something in regards to gun control. Since then interested and ownership has absolutely exploded and the more the media and politicians focus on them, the more people buy them. All the while handguns are responsible for about 20x the deaths attributed to rifles of all classes.
Pretty much every storage vendor has gone to some flavor of DP or even TP, with RAID 0 or some other proprietary scheme to span shelves. Between that and hot spares drive failures become a non-urgent issue for the customer and hardware vendor. Drive fails, the system phones home, drive and (depending on your service contract) vendor show a day or two later to swap it out. The added cost is usually not much compared to the overall cost of the system. We also see RAID 4*, mainly on smaller SSD (14 disk shelves) deployments but very rarely RAID 5 anymore. RAID 5 has just fallen out of favor since most places are not doing server RAID arrays much anymore, but using SAN/NAS systems for data storage instead. It makes sense if you are limited to 5 or 6 drives in a system but even SMBs are buying 14 and 28 disk shelves and consolidating storage away from individual servers due to the better backup/recovery options and overall ROI these systems offer.
*The vendors like RAID 4 over 5 because although there is some performance hit keeping the parity data on one disk, there is no performance degradation when the array is in recovery mode. RAID 5 runs a bit faster in normal ops, but can degrade quite a bit when a drive is lost/rebuilding.

Nope, Tetris is the #1 selling game.

I was exaggerating to underline my point
No you weren't, and now you are just lying to cover your ignorance. Stop it.

I'm not even American and I know this.

So you were trying to state a fake fact then? What's the purpose of that exactly?

Any civilized country does not allow anyone to just walk in from the damn street and buy 6 fully automatic rifles along with a box of shie polish!

Yep, they even included 640 Tensor cores in their Titan V GPU.

I agree. In fact, the NRA actually funded the rifle training of the shooter.
https://www.vox.com/2018/2/16/...
When you think about it, it makes sense. The only group that benefits from mass shootings is the NRA, the gun lobby and gun manufacturers.
Those JROTC programs are also government funded and he was in the program when Obama was president, so Obama's fault?
In real life Skynet was thwarted by a trademark suit brought by the Terminator franchise rights holders in 2021.
That was my first hard drive. Bought it used as a kid and was in hog heaven since all I had before that was dual 5.25 floppies.

You want evidence of SSD prices dropping over time?
