Which is why its more surprising this was first announced last year and there's no Proof of Concept demo yet?
But really, I've given up on ink jet printers, and have gone the cheap B&W laser route for anything I need to print at home (In the past year, 2 times, a backup ticket and some paperwork that needed a real signature sent back).
But when I had them, the thing that went bad 99.999% of the time was the cartridges or a clogged nozzle on the head. So the advantage here, on the repairability side not DRM, is the rails and motors?
Also that cutter is going to be a pain, having worked on Lightjet printers, that cutter was nearly all field service issues until the FEs started leaving the "laser" key so lab managers could reset the blade themselves.
Imagine doing AI development in waterfall. You spend weeks writing your prompt, when you think you have it perfect, only then do you submit it to the AI. Then you wait a week or so, and see what it produced, expecting it to be exactly what you wrote.
Or, do you tell it the basic functionality you want, test it out, then add feature after feature that you want, sometimes dropping them and sometimes adding new ones that you thought of as your worked.
>The problem is, with modern cars it's not "just" a multimedia interface like a car radio - these things are also the interface for critical elements like windshield wipers. I don't care if your homemade Netflix screen craps out while you're driving, but I do not want to be the one your car crashes into because your homemade HMI refused to activate the wipers.
Lets invent circumstances where it would be a problem to run your own car, but lets not invent circumstances where we can allow home brew MMI interfaces. Such as 99% of cars where the MMI interface has nothing to do with wipers. Furthermore, you drive on the road every day with people who have shitty wipers, that barely work, or who don't run their wipers 'fast enough' to effectively clear their windsheild. Is there a enforced speed?
And my CPAP machine, my blood pressure monitor, my scale, my O2 monitor (I stocked up during covid), all have some sort of external web interface that call home to proprietary places, which I trust I am in control of. I'd love to flash my own software onto those, put them all in one place, under my control. Where I can have my own logging without fearing my records are accessible via some fly-by-night 3rd party company that may be selling or leaking data.
I bet you think that Microwaves, stoves etc should never have web interfaces? Well, if you are disabled, say you have low vision and/or blind, microwaves, modern toasters, and other home appliances are extremely difficult or impossible to operate. If you are skeptical, I would love for you to have been next to me when I was demoing the "Alexa powered Microwave" to people who are blind.
There are a lot of a11y university programs hacking these and providing a central UX for home appliances for people with cognitive and vision disabilities.
But please, lets just wait until we're allowed to use them.
>Agreed on the TV - but everything else? Oh hell no..
Then you go to list all the problems with just the car. And your problem is putting your own AI on a car to self-drive.(Linux isn't AI btw). What about putting your own linux on the multi-media interface of the car? What about a CPAP machine? heart monitor? Microwave? I think you mistook the parent's post entirely.
"This is a very strong first world POV. Those U$D 300 rank pretty high across world's minimum salaries "
My point, since I was replying to a poster who said the above, was if you are making $300 a year, you don't have a laptop. So, if you read my assumption, that you don't have a laptop, android phone or laptop, and you are making < $1000 USD a year, the Flea-Scope will cost more than a decent one with a built in display and much more than a ~2mhz toy intro oscilloscope ($11 on Aliexpress) [1]
I could also very well reply with just the quote above.
So starting with nothing at all, what is the total cost of ownership for the flea -cope? My guess, its over $300, (if $300 is your annual salary, your existing phone will probably not cut it). And for comparison, standalone toy oscilloscopes (<10Mhz bandwidth) go for $30 and under (some $11), with screen, on AliExpress. And a "decent" one, like OWON, is around $150.
The problem is, with a toy scope, you aren't really gonna know if what you're measuring is real. This might be useful as a kit to build to learn how to program microcontrollers, or measure audio signals (the $11 one, or the mic on your phone can do this), but a bad scope will generally cause more problems for the hobbyist. When you get near the limit of a scope's bandwidth, the signals get really messy and full of artifacts. Arduinos run at 8-16Mhz, so you're gonna hit a wall really quickly and once you can't rely on the output, the investment will be lost.
Its unfortunate that the author is using VGA signals on LCD displays as "retro". I remember well my first experience using a LCD monitor for work. It was for my first "Silicon Valley" job in 1999 and it was a 15" 1024x768 one, perhaps a ViewSonic. The CTO of the company I was working for was pushing them as it was the "new thing". I requested a 19 inch Trinitron instead as the text was blurry with the VGA input and hurt my eyes, where as my Sony at home was noticeably sharper. I continued using CRTs up until probably 2005 (including a 21" Sony that weighed > 100lbs), it was at that time I got a graphics card with DVI output. At that point, I switched to a 20" Dell LCD and never looked back.
tldr; VGA always looked like crap on most LCDs, imho they were almost unusable until DVI.
Yes, all good. My point was that you aren't being charged with having Tor in the scenario that was described. The existence of Tor on your computer might work as connecting the user to a drug sale.
Drugs are sent to you and intercepted. You claim, though your lawyer, someone was just using your house as a drop and you have no idea who ordered them. They get your computer, you have Tor installed. Prosecutor argues Tor is only used for CP and drugs. Is that enough to convict? Maybe.
If Tor was ubiquitous obviously not, but its very niche, and looking at a chart of use, its pretty much only used for drugs and CP. There are privacy use cases, but just like using crypto as a currency and not a speculative gambling investment, its in the small minority of uses.
And yet every paint manufacturer has hundreds of swatches of various colors that their paint 'comes in', even though there is practically an infinite possibility of colors available.
I've seen many custom JIRA workflows, where you define specific states that can progress to other states. Nearly all of them, over time, were modified so that any state can move to any other state.
And if you engineers don't use the tool you provide, the data in it is useless. Engineers are typically very smart and will just twist any tool they don't like.
Declaration: In order to have accurate state between projects and bugs, everything needs to be tracked in JIRA.
Result: 70% of your Jira stories are now
"This JIRA tracks an issue stored in the Github repo, see the repo for current status"
I think the point was that you aren't being "charged" with using Tor, you are being charged with buying drugs online. You have Tor installed and unfortunately a very small percentage of people have Tor installed. That might be enough to convince a jury, or be enough pressure for you to plead down to a lower crime to reduce that risk.
I remember reading on here years ago that people were concerned that the government was reading their "private" emails. I've always just considered email to be sent in plain text. Just 10 years ago only 30% of emails from Gmail were encrypted. Even though now its 99% of outgoing email is encrypted, but all those emails sent before are probably sitting in a database somewhere. And it still reverts to unencrypted if the recipient doesn't support TLS.
Considering Crowdstrike mentioned in their blog that systems that had their 'falcon sensor' installed weren't affected [1], and the update is falcon content, I'm not sure it was a malformed file, but just software that required this sensor to be installed. Perhaps their QA only checked if the update broke systems with this sensor installed, and didn't do a regression check on windows systems without it.
I was thinking, this doesn't seem like its a case of all these machines still on an old version of windows, or some specific version, that is having issues. Therefore QA just missed one particular variant in their smoke testing. It seems like its every windows instance with that software, so either they don't have basic automated testing, or someone pushed this outside of a normal process.
But really, I've given up on ink jet printers, and have gone the cheap B&W laser route for anything I need to print at home (In the past year, 2 times, a backup ticket and some paperwork that needed a real signature sent back).
But when I had them, the thing that went bad 99.999% of the time was the cartridges or a clogged nozzle on the head. So the advantage here, on the repairability side not DRM, is the rails and motors?
Also that cutter is going to be a pain, having worked on Lightjet printers, that cutter was nearly all field service issues until the FEs started leaving the "laser" key so lab managers could reset the blade themselves.
