Partially. Not really. Page Rank instantly obsoleted every other search algorithm in existence. Nobody was able to get high quality results right at the top so consistently. The ad-free part was a bonus, at least for a while.

You're both wrong. It'll be more of an evisceration than evaporation.

One of those times you hope it's AI slop, but I don't notice anything obvious.

I mostly scream in agony to make it weird.

The history of censorship is littered in the most braindead contradictions like that.

Really? You accept that they happened, they are bad, and we should work towards a better society where that doesn't happen regardless of what coat of paint the government puts over their actions?

Oh, yes, it is.

We went there during Thanksgiving, and my wife looked around for a place that was open on Thanksgiving and had a good special dinner offering. The city subreddit said this one diner was amazing, and it happened to be a few blocks from our hotel.

It was bland and came out lukewarm. It was, at best, OK. We went back there for breakfast, because sometimes those kind of diners are only good for breakfast, but that was also, at best, OK. I have no idea why the city subreddit was raving about it.

A lot of that heat comes from decay of radioactive isotopes deep in the Earth. Still spicy rocks.

"Lost in Vietnam"? Oh, no, they were saying much worse than that. It used to be that if you suggested the US lost Vietnam that you were "insulting the bravery of the troops" or some shit like that. It was only after the War on Terror became unpopular that you could say the US lost Vietnam (because, you know, it did) without some jackass wingnut bringing out the faux patriotism.

If you're cooking by electricity, it's all roughly the same. It's all running close to as efficient as it possibly can be. In theory, some kind of heat pump could do better, but that's not really viable for this use case. It's hard to make them both compact and provide enough heat for cooking.

If you're cooking in a pot on a stove, an induction stove top will do better. As far as dedicated rice cookers go, though, they're all the same. Might be more efficient than any stove top because they lose less heat to the surrounding area during use.

I saw more Confederate battle flags around Indianapolis than I did in Atlanta. Fuck Indianapolis.

The current structure of the credit doesn't get used up like that anymore. Tesla vehicles are still eligible. Musk thinks removing it would hurt competitors more than him.

 
 

There might be a good reason for this. Raster effects were already really good in newer games, and ray tracing could only improve on that high bar. It's filling in details that are barely noticeable, but creap ever so slightly closer to photorealism.

Old games start from a low bar, so ray tracing has dramatic improvement.

 

Not 100% sure if this is a Summit issue or something in Lemmy more generally. Here's the post in question:

https://midwest.social/post/10123989

The link to the blog works on my instance for the desktop. Several other users were reporting the link being broken, and it does break for me on Summit, as well.

When I hit the link on Summit, the requests on the server are GET /api/v3/post?id=2024 and GET /api/v3/comment/list?max_depth=6&post_id=2024&sort=Top&type_=All. It looks like it parsed out the "2024" from the original link and tried to use that in a Lemmy API call.

Which linked to my blog here: https://wumpus-cave.net/post/2024/03/2024-03-20-moores-law-is-dead/index.html

On my instance (midwest.social), this works fine. However, some other users were reporting a broken link, and I also see a broken link when using my mobile app (Summit). When it breaks, I see these calls in the server logs:

  • GET /api/v3/post?id=2024
  • GET /api/v3/comment/list?max_depth=6&post_id=2024&sort=Top&type_=All

Which appear to be Lemmy API calls with some of the actual link data built in.
