NVENC has a slow preset:

As they expand the NVENC options that are exposed on the command line, is it getting closer to CPU-encoding level of quality?

The title is a bit weird. On my first reading it makes it sound like two different people can have indistinguishable fingerprints. But after reading/skimming the article+paper, it seems like what they’ve actually done is been able to correlate fingerprints from different fingers on the same person.

So the title makes it sound like they’ve weakened the basis of fingerprinting as forensic evidence, when in fact they’ve developed a way to link the different fingerprints from the same criminal so that additional cases could be solved.

e.g. if a criminal only left a thumb print at one crime scene and an index finger print at another, this posed a problem for investigators because they couldn’t link them to the same person, but this “AI” approach can link those two different prints to the same person.

Firing someone “with cause”, but without any real actual reason (cause), is illegal.

So are Flamin’ Hot Cheetos.

So are normal Cheetos, for that matter.

This phrasing

offsetting everything else your kidneys are filtering

sounds like a negative thing, at least how I’m reading it.

I know drinking too much water is bad, but was under the impression that drinking a lot of water is generally better for you.

I saw the post yesterday, but didn’t watch the video at the time.

Your comment convinced me to watch it, and, boy, was that more interesting than I expected.

One question remains: what are those gloves they are wearing? I get that it’s something that helps with the rolling technique, but is it just for abrasion/chafing prevention? Or does it do something else?

Most scripting languages are interpreted, not compiled. It’s not a criticism of them, but it is a tradeoff that is good to understand.

It seems like you are the one who is conflating terms like “script kiddie” with “scripting language” and adding some negative connotation that isn’t necessarily implied.

Scripting languages are usually easier to learn, have simpler syntax, and abstractions that hide complexity. These make them easier to get started in, but the downside is they are generally slower (performance-wise) than their compiled counterparts.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scripting_language

A scripting language, or interpreted language, is interpreted at runtime, rather than compiled.

It is not derogatory, and is simply a fact about languages like Python and JS.

What is up with some of those letters? Looks like some AI generated image text that I’ve seen

Sorry if this is a stupid question, and maybe it’s because I’m not understanding exactly what you’re saying, but what’s the benefit of encrypting if it decrypts on boot without a password?

Just to prevent someone who boots another OS on your device from being able to access your files? Something else?

I saved this recent comment, maybe it was somewhere in this thread?

Totally equivalent right?

It’s annoying when EV-angelists act like range is a non issue compared to ICE vehicles. I want to buy an EV, but none of them have the range or charging speed I’d require for my typical drives.
