I thought CoPilot was just a rebagged ChatGPT anyway?
It’s a silly experiment anyway, there are very good AI chess grandmasters but they were actually trained to play chess, not predict the next word in a text.

Seems fair enough, these things cost money and the #BBC is in a race to diversify it’s income in preparation for the license fee going away. The dynamic description sounds like they want to preserve the casual visitors experience of an open site.
I get ads on my BBC podcasts when I’m abroad. I assume that’s all part of it.
Very expensive and still slower than an hard coded ASIC.
Sure if they needed to bypass ads I can introduce them to Free tube or whatever but for all it’s sins they need moderated exposure to the YouTube experience so they’re equipped enough not to go totally wild when they finally have unfettered access.
I thought my youngest was all about watching hour long Minecraft playthroughs but really they are quite interested in game mechanics and speed running. They are just a lot more tolerant of watching hours of videos around a particular game.
I don’t overly police their content consumption (although we do talk about limiting shorts). The main thing is at the weekend to kick them off the TV after the morning to go and do something more interactive.
When we first let the kids watch YouTube it was on the main TV with it’s own account. We have consistently monitored it and actively prune recommendations while slowly introducing them to the concept of “the algorithm”. From secondary school they pretty much need YouTube on their own PC’s for homework reasons and it’s harder to totally lock down - we use the family link controls to limit it a little but if they tried to get around them they could. The hope is we’ve at least prepared them a little before they have totally unfettered access to the internet.
We did try YouTube kids a little but it was such a garbage experience we just blocked the app everywhere.
The article says it only applied to apps requesting certain permissions. I agree I’m an ideal world it would be nice to get f-droid directly from the Play store but at least according to the article the ability to install it isn’t being blocked here.
From the article it sounds like the limitations come for some app types downloaded directly from a browser. I think this doesn’t affect alternate app stores like f-droid where you are effectively delegating approval to their process.
I have come across the other limitations mentioned with the Home Assistant companion app which I could only get matter registration to work with the version downloaded from the Play store.
Did Wordpress ever fork our have people just been migrating to alternatives?
I can second the alcohol free beers. The modern ones have excellent taste and hit the refreshing hoppy spot for me and are much better than juice or sodas when it comes to calories. I’m not totally dry, I drink 2-3 units a week, but I’m certainly feeling better for not having alcohol every day.
I’m forever telling my children to pay attention in car parks because they are full of moving cars.
Basically you need to hook into decryption engine being used and copy the unencrypted data before it gets sent to the hardware to play. I assume something like Widevine sends the data directly to the system codec for playback so you could look at the syscalls it makes for that.
PipePipe seems to work with my login to play age restricted stuff. I do generally have to trigger a login through settings and then research the video through.
Does anyone know what the underlying filesystem is on DSM? The ability to easily replace disks with a degree of redundancy across the 4 bays is the biggest plus point for Synology although I have no doubt all the bits underneath are the Linux storage stack.
It’s a shame because I really like the point and click nature of DSM. Although I’m a happy Linux hacker I don’t want another Linux box to suck up my limited admin time just to store files.
A lot of the Emacs language modes have been replaced with tree-sitter equivalents now.
Bold of you to assume we’ll make it that far. I’m not convinced that our current networked CO2 phase isn’t another great filter event.
I played my youngest (11) the Pickle Rick episode but told them a lot of the other episodes had adult themes that night go over their head so maybe when they’re older.
So that’s how the family ended up running through all the seasons over about 3 weeks. Some stuff they didn’t pick up on but got raised eyebrows from the older sibling (13) but all in all they loved it. Rick’s even trying to improve as a person in the latter seasons so it’s not totally niahlistic.
Android gets a leg up from being built on a FLOSS base but I don’t think it was the community that pushed Android to where it is today. That’s taken a lot of money and resources from Google and it’s phone partners investing in the slightly more open platform than Apple.
So back in the days of the Atari ST we had compact disks (sic).
Most games shipped on a single floppy disk (so 720k or 1.4Mb) and rarely used compression given the base system only has 512k of RAM. The crackers would strip the protection, repack the data and patch the loading routines to handle that. Depending on the games they could fit 3 or 4 games on a single disk.
Nowadays the dynamics are different - games on consoles do use compression but they have to favour speed because they are streaming assets just in time. The PS5 even had dedicated decompression hardware to keep up with the data rate on it’s fast SSD.
