  Probably so it can detect it as quickly as possible for elimination.

  This makes sense. By now a full 3-4% of all data on the internet is probably Linux help forums so it’s probably highly represented in its dataset lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Doctor Who: Here's Why David Tennant is The Face of The Modern Era⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  A lot of the reason I liked Jodie Whitaker’s Doctor so much was because she channeled tennant so well in her own way. She was let down by poor writing and over used tropes though. I’m really excited to see the series in a fresh light.

  The unintended consequence of repeated attacks on net neutrality is that so many more people understand what net neutrality is and won’t fall for this bs.

  I love BG3, but agree that it deserves some criticism for act 3 bugginess. Just remember Bethesda basically forced them to release a month early when they announced starfield was coming out on the same weekend.

  Every time I bite into one, I get this. When I’m cautious and decide to cut? Dry as a bone. smh

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Australian students shun education degrees as fears grow over ‘unprecedented’ teacher shortage⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Teacher of 20+ years checking in. Schools only continue in their current state because of the hard work and good will of education workers. It’s not an endless resource though. If governments keep ignoring problems in schools, they will collapse as people can’t afford to work there anymore because of the financial or mental health costs.

  The pendulum is swinging back towards the monopoly model that destroyed cable. Time to dust off the old Jolly Roger and teach streaming an old lesson of what happens when you price gouge people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fully Charged in Just 6 Minutes – Groundbreaking Technique Could Revolutionize EV Charging⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I asked gpt4 to explain this abstract in terms a high schooler would understand.

  Sure, this text is talking about making better batteries. Right now, a type of material called “mixed transition metal oxides” has potential to be a really good component in batteries. But there are problems like they don’t hold as much energy as we’d like, they’re hard to make, and they don’t conduct electricity well.

  So, the researchers made a new version of these materials, tweaking them with manganese and iron. They used a new, easier method to make super-thin sheets of this stuff. This new material can hold a lot of energy, way more than the old versions.

  The thin sheets also let electric charges move more easily, which is good for battery performance. Plus, they made sure that the material doesn’t expand too much, which helps keep the battery stable over time.

  So basically, they made a high-performance battery material that can be charged quickly, holds a lot of energy, and lasts a long time. It’s like creating a new recipe for a better, longer-lasting smartphone battery.

  I’ve tried to migrate my account several times in the past. It never works for some reason. Also, I can never seem to untangle the web of deceit known as Microsoft/xbox/Minecraft profiles and family/group settings. About once a year I spend a couple hours trying to sort it out and then give up because it never works. Google can be awful sometimes but at least they figured out “sign in with Google”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple users bash new iPhone 15: ‘Innovation died with Steve Jobs’⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The iPhone is their cash cow. They need it to bring stable and sizeable income to fund things like vr goggles. I’m not saying the haters are wrong, just that their expectations for what Apple will innovate on the iPhone might be a little misplaced.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Some Tesla engineers secretly started designing a Cybertruck alternative because they 'hated' it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Two years ago I was going to but my first ford, my first truck, AND my first electric because it was the same car. On paper the F150 Lightning seems like the most practical family car ever made. Dealer markup and low volume completely killed it. Ford should eliminate dealerships and sell direct with fixed pricing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨IGN | Rotten Tomatoes Under Fire After PR Firm's Scheme to Pay Critics for Positive Reviews Uncovered⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The user reviews are where it’s at on rotten tomatoes. The critic reviews have been kinda suspect for a while.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Top AI Companies Pledge to Watermark AI Content for Safety⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The watermark would likely be comprised of a few different methods to embed marker pixel sets that would be difficult/impossible to see in addition to ones that are visible. Think printed currency. I’m not saying there won’t be an arms race to circumvent it like drm, or bad actors who counterfeit it, but the work should be done to try to ensure some semblance of reliability in important distributed content.
