Wine can actually beat native in latency, since it’s a pretty thin translation layer and windows is … windows.
I’d give it a shot just in case. - Comment on English moment 4 weeks ago:

Steadily improving. I set up my webserver with ech which is the next step, hiding even the domain. A solid chunk of the internet uses cloudflare as an intermediary, which also has ech and only leaves “someone connected to some cloudflare page at this time for that amount of data”.
As more places roll out deep package inspection, I’m sure in due time more randomization for package sizes will follow, making even the amount of data uncertain.
Most web metadata is at the http layer anyway and has always been hidden by https.

There is also an unreadable (due to compression) watermark under to it, how would I know it is actually an artists signature?
I assume then it is, and of an artist you recognize to be credible? - Comment on Hurr hurr hurr 5 weeks ago:
Ok but has this actually been proposed by an archeologist in accordance with the evidence we have? Is this a possible recreation or has it in effect already been disproven with what we know?
There’s a big difference between “in 2024 an archeologist asked an artist to paint this” and “someone on ticktock ai generated this”.

Yeah, I would expect it to be hard, similar to asking an llm to substitiute all letters e with an a. Which I’m sure they struggle with but manage to perform it too.
In this context though it’s a bit misleading explaining the observed behavior of op with that though, since it implies it is due to that fundamental nature of llms when in practice all models I have tested fundamentally had the ability.
It does seem that llms simply don’t use double spaces (or I have not noticed them doing it anywhere yet), but if you trained or just systemprompted them differently they could easily start to. So it isn’t a very stable method for non-ai identification.
- Comment on I'm gonna die on this hill or die trying 1 month ago:
I’d expect tokenizers to include spaces in tokens. You get words constructed from multiple tokens, so can’t really insert spaces based on them. And too much information doesn’t work well when spaces are stripped.
In my tests plenty of llms are also capable of seeing and using double spaces when accessed with the right interface.

That graph Does contain bees.
To be specific, bees are a “Cladistically included but traditionally excluded taxa” of wasps, since they are within Apocrita.
The common-language definition of wasp is literally “A member of Apocrita … except bees (and ants)”.
It’s the same situation as saying a chicken is a dinosaur, and why the field often uses “non-avian dinosaurs” instead for clarity.Further, the typical wasp, the yellow-jacket, is actually way closer to the bee within Apocrita. Take this wikipedia diagram from the Aculeta article:
So if you want to exclude wasps and bees at the level of Apocrita, you’d have to turn yellow-jackets into bees.

Bees are technically a kind of wasp.
- Comment on 'Windmill': China tests world’s first megawatt-level airship to capture high winds 1 month ago:
It is actually a notable fraction (~60%) and more importantly constant.
Meaning if your wind has 27x more energy, you can also capture 27x more energy.This is the energy taken from the wind passing through the disk the turbine spins in, so turbines are placed in spaced out rows to let the wind mix with all the air that didn’t pass through a turbine and pick up speed again.

Going by memory there used to be competition a few years ago, so they may still be consolidating the market and stabelizing their monopoly before tightening prices.

When’s the pollen season on the moon?
I think you are missing the obvious cure handed right to you. Funding should be increased so you too can be free of airborne plant reproduction via the most sensible and straight forward method.
If you are unhappy with the scenery, I am sure the technology developed for lunar habitation will also prove helpful for polar habitation, where similarly few natural particulates are dispersed. - Comment on Friends are a bloatware. 2 months ago:
That’s untrue. Someone made a modified client that sent message info towards other servers completely independently of signal. That part was compromised.
It’s like calling aignal compromised because someones phone was hacked.Signal can’t protect you from users being an idiot and essentially showing their chat histories to other people over the internet.

That weird blue ai circle I saw them put in the app sure looks like one fat unremovable nag-ad.
Same with the status stuff. They tried turning it into a social media by shoving crap in your face you didn’t want and making it impossible to remove. How is that not an ad? - Comment on Entrance covered by dreams and RNA 2 months ago:

They also say
meaning they cannot be read by a third party
which equally isn’t true.
If your password is guessable with trillions of attempts, and whatever information and time an attacker wants, then of course can they crack your hash, “read” your password, and try it on other services.
Sadly the kind of password susceptible to being broken on account of not being strong enough is also the kind people use everywhere because they memorize it. A truly strong password will only be found in a password manager.

It’s completely removable with one setting. No nags or anti-patterns or design holes.
If it stops a few from sticking with whatsapp because signal lacks that “feature”, I’d say it’s worth it. - Comment on Nepal bans social media(Facebook, X, Reddit, Mastodon, Discord, Signal, YouTube and more) for failing to register with the government; Only 7 to be open(Viber, TikTok, Telegram and more) 2 months ago:
Mastodon is also blocked, I don’t think they cared if services are centralized.
