  • Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney supports the $900 million lawsuit against Valve, arguing Steam is "the only major store still holding onto payment ties and 30% junk fee"

  • Yeah, I think that was not the case during their recent lawsuit with Apple. So relatively recently that changed and was limited for a "good" reason.

    No Linux support though so whatever. Useless to me.

  • How to revert Firefox’s latest changes to address bar suggestions

    Jump

  • Not normal for me but I recently opted in to Firefox's telemetry so they could see all the trouble I'm going through to turn off their new features in their reporting.

    Will it change their mind? Probably not. But at least it'll be there in the numbers

  • Help! What is wrong?

    Jump

  • That's a tough one. Those small points hanging ledges pose a lot of problems for printers and petg is not a forgiving filament type.

    As others have said, petg can be a harder filament to print. Even dry it tends to be more viscous leading to oozing, stringing. I'm not convinced that's the problem but it could be part of it as build up from stinging or over extrusion can cause collisions leading to something like this.

    The damage looks like it's happening on one side. That hints at either a cooling problem or some movement or seam placement problem.

    Looking at pictures of your printer it looks like it has too fans so I suspect that side had direct cooling and the openness means it's probably not getting a wall that would affect it.

    Related to movement, speed/acceleration could be an issue. You might have heard scratching while printing in this area. If so slight warping during cooling or from over extrusion could lead the nuzzle colliding. On a more solid print you could probably get away with ignoring it as it wouldn't affect the print but with such small parts small impacts over time will lead to knocking parts off or distorting them. Try slowing down the print. Most of the print here is delecate but you can do that in modifiers if you want other parts of the print to be fast.

    Not sure how much that adds or helps but good luck.

  • Telly has only delivered 35,000 of its free televisions with always-on ads

  • I cut the drivers (not the company) slack for some of this sort of stuff. I had a friends dad that delivered for UPS apparently the expectations are impossible. You don't leave till deliveries are done but it's not possible to do in a normal day. Marking things delivered that weren't was apparently the only way to see his family sometimes.

  • I assumed you would understand I meant the short part of your statement describing the LLM. Not your slight dig at me, your setting up the question, and your clarification on your perspective.

    So you be more clear, I meant "The IIm doesn't consider a negative response to its actions due to its training and context being limited"

    In fact, what you said is not much different from the statement in question. And you could argue on top of being more brief, if you remove "top of mind" it's actually more clear. Implying training and prompt context instead of the bot understanding and being mindful of the context it was operating in.

  • I think you did a fine job right there explaining it without personifying it. You also captured the nuance without implying the machine could apply empathy, reasoning, or be held accountable the same way a human could.

  • Well, since you asked I'd basically do what you said. Something like “so 'humans might hate hearing from me' probably wasn't part of the context it was using."

  • 4 reasons Plex is turning into the thing it replaced

    Jump

  • I'm not sure I've ever used it, but according to Wikipedia, ad videos started in 2019, live tv is 2020, and rentals in 2024. During that time it's become more and more intrusive, now replacing your media entirely out of the box.

    That means for 10 of its 16 software purchases and software subscriptions where it's bread and butter and has grown into different revenue streams. It's still software, but now it's Ad based revenue streams. Adding more and more fees. You might say it's growing into the thing it was supposed to replace, corporate cable and streaming service.

  • 4 reasons Plex is turning into the thing it replaced

    Jump

  • I believe I experienced what they called "re-disable promotional content after an update." Everything was reset and my media was hidden with only their streaming options available. Similarly setting up a new Chromecast it only had their streaming content and I had to hide their content and unhide mine.

    I seem to remember there being some weaselly link that would re-enable their content after it was disabled too.

    Generously, they're providing more content and a way to support the development of the product through ads. But all the changes and the way they're happening show me a picture of a company with changing priorities. So I tend to agree with the sentiment of the author.

  • Plex’s crackdown on free remote streaming access starts this week - Ars Technica

    Jump

  • I kind of understand why someone would honestly. Jellyfin subtitles are still a hot mess for a lot of formats unfortunately. Also, while plex has tried really hard to ruin their UI, I've still had more trouble explaining where to find things in Jellyfin. And if you're sharing your collection with friends or family members there's a lot more technical stuff involved.

    So I can see why the balance might still tip toward paying plex still for some people.

    Luckily I bought a lifetime license ages ago before the first price hike so this doesn't affect me yet. So I'm just riding out the decline, running them in parallel until plex completely breaks. slowly transitioning the family as they get annoyed with broken features. Plexamp is quickly taking care of that 😅

  • Also schools. My kids state issued laptops use vpns to connect to the schools networks as well as in a true irony limit what sites they can access.

    It's actually so limiting it's nearly impossible to print the required assignments on a printer in our home but that's a different rant.

  • Fact check: Is Mamdani introducing Arabic numerals to New York schools?

    Jump

  • I think your confusion is the other side of what the article was discussing.

    The problem is, there have been a lot of number systems in the past. The one we currently use is based on the Arabic system. In common usage you would simply call them numbers. But in a technical sense, to distinguish from other numbering systems past and present, they're also called Arabic Numerals because that's their origin.

    Clearly this ignores the fact Arabic is still around and using real Arabic numbers and that is both confusing and maybe problematic. But I think the technical reason it sticks around is to acknowledge their source and have a more specific term when there is a need
