  Since there’s 78 pages, I’m guessing at least 1 ambiguity per page? Anyways, it’s dreadfully big.

  I tried to leave a comment, but it doesn’t seem to be showing up there.

  I’ll just leave it here:

  too tired to look into this, one suggestion though - since the hangup seems to be comparing an L and a 1, maybe you need to get into per-pixel measurements. This might be necessary if the effectiveness of ML or OCR models isn’t at least 99.5% for a document containing thousands of ambiguous L’s. Any inaccuracies from an ML or OCR model will leave you guessing 2^N candidates which becomes infeasible quickly. Maybe reverse engineering the font rendering by creating an exact replica of the source image? I trust some talented hacker will nail this in no time.

  my direct boss has showed me what access he has to wireless client information, which includes client position. At first I thought this was really weird, even though I was paranoid enough to know that an SSID can track you in the general vicinity through roaming. But exact location is just so weird.

  Entirely unwise to buy anything non-Nintendo on the Nintendo Store as if the Switch’s entire purpose wasn’t to just get people to buy a $500 appliance to play a Nintendo game.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple picks Google’s Gemini AI for its big Siri upgrade⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I use Siri for:

  • getting the time
  • setting an alarm
  • reading a notification
  • telling someone I’ll be late
  • skipping a song

  None of those need AI.

  I like mentioning sometimes that there’s a small delay when you click the Start button, because it’s a React component. My coworker told me he cannot unsee it now.

  I was wondering if this post was headed in the direction that a user program typically does nothing most of the time, since it does its work and then is paused by kernel or it voluntarily gives execution away to wait for a trap or interrupt. Or it could be waiting for disk access which is like a millennia in terms of CPU time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Help with home server plan⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m in the US so I was able to snag a lot of stuff for like $150 usd off eBay. Though my first home server was actually a mini PC which was only like $100 and is super power efficient, only using like 10-15 watts. The biggest downside though of that is that is only has two NVME slots and no SATA, because it’s a mini PC.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Help with home server plan⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
  • buy a cheap atx case with >= 4 3.5” drive bays
  • buy a mini itx mb with like 4/5 SATA ports or however you want. Btw pcie SATA hbas exist
  • throw a 6000 or preferably 9000 series and onwards intel chip in there. Anything before that will have poor efficiency
  • 16 gb ram min
  • put proxmox on it

  Can you ID where this guy lives using OSINT? Even just the location of his house is enough if you don’t know his name. Maybe get local police interested.
