  A single run is about 20 or 30 minutes, it less. So yes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨White AI faces judged human more often than actual human faces⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You know there is a significant difference between it being a thing you might see occasionally versus an ongoing issue?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bay Area innovator stops shoplifting, gives shoppers power to open padlocked shelves⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s not exactly the vending machines being a solution then, is it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨White AI faces judged human more often than actual human faces⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  An op? Making a misleading title? On Lemmy?

  Man, it’s as if the severe lack of moderation and rules that so many people wanted when moving from Reddit is hurting the quality of posts on here.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bay Area innovator stops shoplifting, gives shoppers power to open padlocked shelves⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The video showed people breaking glass displays to rob a store; how do these vending machines prevent that issue?

  No, peak was apart of old funhaus.

  Common issue on Lemmy from what I’ve seen, stemming from a lack of harder moderation.

  Reddit’s r/games may have been very heavy on the rules, but those rules insured a level of quality that the Lemmy counterparts don’t have.

  offload computing to the cloud (no need for a gaming PC if you can just play them online)

  Unless you can live very close to one of the data centers doing the computing to minimize the number of hops, that just isn’t even remotely doable with modern networking equipment

  Google tried it with stadia and gifs like this show why it doesn’t work for most people

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Youtube's Anti-adblock is illegal in the EU⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Management of big tech are excessively rich assholes. The rich, by the very definition, do not fall into the category of “normal people”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Youtube's Anti-adblock is illegal in the EU⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t be an asshole and blame regular people for shit like this. This is because of big tech

  modify

  Nope, the license forbids that.

  OSI’s definition is the oldest and original definition. It’s decades old at this point.

  Just eat the kevlar silkworms

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you could play one game for the first time all over again, what would it be?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Man, I fucking LOVE the storytelling in 7. It’s so insanely well done and the music just makes it all the better

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #2834: Book Podcasts⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Podcast audio books were a thing at one point! You could download free, serialized audiobooks, usually read by the author! They were called podiobooks (and was a website of the same name) and I really miss that time. Some of my favorite authors and books come from that time.

  I still have the creative common copies of a bunch of them and can share if anyone wants. Not all were CC, but you could freely share.

  c/lemmyshitposts seems to be the Lemmy meme version of Reddit’s r/funny

  Remember me, Eddie?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is America's quest for high-speed trains finally picking up steam?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The problem is that Amtrak doesn’t own most or even any of those rails, instead having to pay for the right to use them. The reason why this is a problem is that it’s hard to upgrade rails to high speed when you don’t own them. Amtrak trains also often have to stop and give passage to freight trains, which is unlike what you’d see in Japan where passenger trains are on their own, dedicated rails.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Teens Hacked Boston Subway’s CharlieCard to Get Infinite Free Rides⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  If you had read the first paragraph, or even the subheader, you would have seen that the article covers that and that the kids were working off the 2008 research.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Baldur’s Gate 3’ Prepared for 100k Concurrent Players, They’ve Gotten 700K⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  “It works for me so its obviously something you did” is never helpful and often just rude.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Firefox Money: Investigating the bizarre finances of Mozilla⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Reminder that Bryan Lunduke is an alt right nut and transphobe, so if his writing smells fishy, you know why.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You don’t have to fake docs to create a false uproar. All it takes is painting things in a bad light and hoping your audience doesn’t dig deeper. EG the part I stopped reading at is when he put ‘cis’ in quotation marks and said the linked person was hating on cisgendered white people, when in reality the link they provided only showed the person saying that cisgendered folks are generally better off in the workplace.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Isn’t Bryan Lunduke a sem-closeted Qanon dude? Some of this article does smell of that kind of thinking.
