This is an examiner and structure of the test issue. Examiners are lazy/desire efficiency, and want something easy to grade. So they reuse a lot of questions, and even whole tests.

Gaming cheating is the opposite. Every game is different so active effort must be made by both cheat creators and anti-cheat makers to adapt to each other constantly. Also pretty much everything relevant is remote only, so games effectively have to operate in uncontrollable hardware and software environment. Unlike tests, where you can literally require pen and paper and no devices and actively control the environment where test is taken to enforce it.

I'm not sure what the point of this is. Are you perhaps unaware that people who do the playlists for radio are not hosts?

Programmers who design that sort of a thing are paid way more than basic bitch radio hosts. That wouldn't be viable.

What is viable is to have AI do the same thing for far cheaper.

They didn't seek to "cash in on AI bubble" considering that they didn't announce it was AI.

They just replaced the host permanently, saving on money.

You can use a 3rd party ROM line LineageOS and not install GApps (F-droid + Auora if you really need stuff from the store). Sure it's still using a Chrome engine for apps that require it, but you can use Fennec (Firefox fork without the Mozilla bullshit) and UBlock Origin. You can also use Ad Away for additional DNS level ad blocking.

Mozilla has a bunch of tracking by default now. I use the Librewolf fork on desktop and Fennec on Android + UBlock Origin on both. If you want to stay on FF, there are some custom userscripts out there you can add to disable all the Mozilla tracking. Mozilla has fallen far from it's original values.

My bees abandoned their hive this spring. They were coming out at the beginning of spring and I thought they'd be okay, but nope. I had them two years and got some decent harvests. Gonna take a year off; might order a nuc for next year and try again.

No. I'm just laughing at the study in question. It's linked above, go look at their maps.

They're doing their best to confound the two, because that's where the "give me more research money" comes from.

Heavy metals pollution is almost entirely localized to a very specific belt, going from Turkey through Iraq and Iran into Pakistan, India and terminating in China. There are a couple of other hot spots like certain mining areas in Africa, but other than that, it's not a problem.

Rest of the world it's just the same old overfertilization they're trying to sell as "pollution" again. This is 1960s panic, 1980s panic and 2000s panic being recycled again. Nothing new at all.

Yes, user base is normal people in need of external storage. Not nerds.

If you're a nerd, you probably have plenty of old machines you use as NAS if you need that.

Open source NAS isn't a competitor here. Countless similar proprietary NAS setups are.

All the stupid "enhance image" moments in police TV dramas may actually become real.

And then everyone clapped for your amazing puppet show!

I was thinking the same thing. All the people who spent last eight years screaming about how orange man is worse than Hitler at their posh parties now have to beg teetotaller Don to please think of their drug supplies?

Being a fly on the wall for those meetings would be better than any Hollywood movie.

It's likely more of a "ease of use for a tech demo that happens within a browser". You don't want to randomly capture user's mouse and have them have a negative reaction to "why is my mouse being weird inside this window?"

And the reason why cargo cults are a good example of similar reasoning is because they are. Humans can reason without context. And it leads to people in Polynesian regions mimicking actions of various US military personnel that were getting cargo flown in during WW2. Believing that this will lead to cargo appearing just like it appeared when they did it. Because they have no context of "there's a completely different world out there called America, where there are massive factories where people toil to produce all those things using concepts you also have no grasp of".

Fundamentally, it's magic to human cognition at this point. Just like to this AI model, Quake 2 is magic. It happens. It has no idea why or how. But it knows that it looks something like what it's producing, and so it produces a best visual fascimile it can.

And it looks like a cargo cult version of quake 2. Which is a hell of a breakthrough, because it demonstrates human-like cognition, functioning just like humans do when they try to re-enact things they have no context for.
