If you love the Chinese low quality drop shipped items on Amazon, and wish that was the only thing they stocked, then Temu is great!

That is what I said. I said it’s a mistake to think one of them has a precedence over the other. You’re arguing the same point I’m making?
Most recommended cameras are from China unfortunately. While I would prefer to not support them economically, they seem fine security wise.
No Hikvision from Amazon, good shout as I was looking at some of them there.
Oh, that might prove a bit difficult on a Linux machine. I guess I’ll have to borrow my room mates computer :P
Thanks for the shout about Frigate’s documentation. There’s a lot of good information on there!

It has just exposed him as an incredibly self obsessed person.

Is it a nitpick to say since the posse comitatus mentions the army and air force, but not the navy, it doesn’t apply to the marines? I have no clue, I just know the US are very literal with their laws.

It fails a bit here and there, so requires you to watch that everything actually downloaded, but it beats any random YouTube quality video other programs would find otherwise.

You’re not braking, but they might think you are. I don’t know what the legality of that would be
HereIAm@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•A fake Facebook event disguised as a math problem has been one of its top posts for 6 monthsEnglish21·1 month ago100% with you. “Left to right” as far as I can tell only exists to make otherwise “unsolvable” problems a kind of official solution. I personally feel like it is a bodge, and I would rather the correct solution for such a problem to be undefined.
HereIAm@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•A fake Facebook event disguised as a math problem has been one of its top posts for 6 monthsEnglish31·1 month agoI fully agree that if it comes down to “left to right” the problem really needs to be rewritten to be more clear. But I’ve just shown why that “rule” is a common part of these meme problems because it is so weird and quite esoteric.
HereIAm@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•A fake Facebook event disguised as a math problem has been one of its top posts for 6 monthsEnglish32·1 month agoExcept it does matter. I left some examples for another post with multiplication and division, I’ll give you some addition and subtraction to see order matter with those operations as well.
Let’s take:
1 + 2 - 3 + 4Addition first:
(1 + 2) - (3 + 4)
3 - 7 = -4Subtraction first:
1 + (2 - 3) + 4
1 + (-1) + 4 = 4Right to left:
1 + (2 - (3 + 4))
1 + (2 - 7)
1 + (-5) = -4Left to right:
((1 + 2) - 3) + 4
(3 - 3) + 4 = 4Edit: You can argue that, for example, the addition first could be
(1 + 2) + (-3 + 4)
in which case it does end up as 4, but in my opinion that’s another ambiguous case.
HereIAm@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•A fake Facebook event disguised as a math problem has been one of its top posts for 6 monthsEnglish72·1 month agoSo let’s try out some different prioritization systems.
Left to right:
(((6 * 4) / 2) * 3) / 9 ((24 / 2) * 3) / 9 (12 * 3) / 9 36 / 9 = 4
Right to left:
6 * (4 / (2 * (3 / 9))) 6 * (4 / (2 * 0.333...)) 6 * (4 / 0.666...) 6 * 6 = 36
Multiplication first:
(6 * 4) / (2 * 3) / 9 24 / 6 / 9
Here the path divides again, we can do the left division or right division first.
Left first: (24 / 6) / 9 4 / 9 = 0.444... Right side first: 24 / (6 / 9) 24 / 0.666... = 36
And finally division first:
6 * (4 / 2) * (3 / 9) 6 * 2 * 0.333... 12 * 0.333.. = 4
It’s ambiguous which one of these is correct. Hence the best method we have for “correct” is left to right.
HereIAm@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•A fake Facebook event disguised as a math problem has been one of its top posts for 6 monthsEnglish121·1 month agoThe issue normally with these “trick” questions is the ambiguous nature of that division sign (not so much a problem here) or people not knowing to just go left to right when all operators are of the same priority. A common mistake is to think division is prioritised above multiplication, when it actually has the same priority. Someone should have included some parenthesis in PEDMAS aka. PE(DM)(AS) 😄

Issue is it gets confused by changing the proton version that runs the game, thinking it’s a new install on a new computer, and so quickly bans you from playing the game.
I read it the same way you did. If you want to terminate the EULA, then they request you remove your copies of the game. In that snippet it says nothing about them arbitrary demand you delete all your copies.
