Surely I misread the title. The wounded were all stabbed, surely. Nope... Cops open fired hit the suspect, 2 randos (one of which was hit in the head), and a friggin cop. All started by suspect not paying the fare. Cops made the whole situation infinitely worse than had they not showed up.

Accounting details, sensitive credentials for sys admin use, HIPAA data, PII etc. there's just so much crap understood to be temporarily unlocked, viewed, and then immediately deleted or locked again. Even home users shouldn't turn this thing on, check your bank? Balance and account details now always available. Use a password manager? Whatever you looked at is likely captured.

A fundamental flaw in this, is it still involves user data, even if "anonymized". You can advertise without any user data. We do it all the time. Does a television channel know your gender? Does a radio station know if you bought a car recently? Does the newspaper know your hobbies?

Sega alleges infringements of the following five patents: No. 5930111, No. 6402953, No. 6891987, No. 7297361 and No. 7411307, all of which are registered in Japan.

I tried checking out that first patent there, 5930111 and who boy... is this shit hard to read

An information processing device includes: a control means for causing the player to acquire a content in response to a game execution instruction from the player; an extraction means for extracting content groups of the same type from contents possessed by the player, according to an instruction from the player; a selection means for automatically selecting fusion source contents and resource contents from each of the extracted content groups; and a fusion means for collectively fusing, for each of the fusion source contents, one of the resource contents of the same type as the each of the fusion source contents. The selection means selects, as the resource contents, contents having a rarity at or below a specific level, from each of the extracted content groups.

They are necessitating 8GB of RAM. for what?! Like, it would be a struggle to find a machine with less than 8GB still being sold new, sure, but why does the OS need that RAM?

If you have another windows pc, you can use the built-in remote desktop. Or, from Linux you can install a Microsoft rdp compatible client like remmina. (Edit: If using Windows Pro on the target machine, for either of these options)

I just tried it on Nobara. Just... application launcher (The start menu icon)->sleep. Waited, and then woke the machine back up and when the machine came back up, the game was still running. No idea if all games will play nice with that, but Satisfactory did.

I don't personally know of any but in a similar vein there are some stone monuments intended to convey information after an apocalypse like the Georgia Guidestones or the nuclear waste site warning stones. GitHub put a snapshot of all active code repositories from 2020 in arctic permafrost, and there is the arctic seed vault for preserving plant species.

Keep in mind both options require enabling remote control from Windows settings. It's off by default if I recall right.

Definitely this. The data is not likely gone, but before doing anything that could make things worse, try and get a full copy of the SD card somewhere. From there you may safely try repairing the partition or data carving tools.

Yay... Capitalism...

And for the fandubs, there should be an additional paragraph as a hat explaining some concept or pun that just does not translate well.

I'd imagine a berry of some sort. There could be a berry we still eat that pre-humans also ate. Wouldn't surprise me.

The short answer is Rust was built with safety in mind. The longer answer is C was built mostly to abstract from assembly without much thought to safety. In C, if you want to use an array, you must manually request a chunk of memory, check to make sure you are writing within the bounds of your array, and free up the memory used by your array when completely done using it. If you do not do those steps correctly, you could write to a null pointer, cause a buffer overflow error, a use-after-free error, or memory leak depending on what step was forgotten or done out of order. In Rust, the compiler keeps track of when variables are used through a borrowing system. With this borrowing system the Rust compiler requests and frees memory safely. It also checks array bounds at run-time without a programmer explicitly needing to code it in. Several high-level languages have alot of these safety features too. C# for example, can make sure objects are not freed until they fall out of scope, but it does this at run-time with a garbage collector where Rust borrower rules are done at compile-time.

Had something similar happen with indiegala. Had an account with them for years, then one day, could not purchase some games randomly. Hit up their support and got the answer "Oh, the purchase was denied because your account's email address is detected as a temporary email address".... The email address I've been using on that account... for years.... Is temporary.

Compounded by sites like RSSing that frame or scrape other websites. Another hit, but literally the same thing verbatim as another.

Huh... That makes sense. Til. Ran some tests but speed is pretty similar. Only 4% faster using bitmath or 300 milliseconds difference after 10mil runs.

Some of the projects that pushed my own learning were very small things to help my school or work. When I was younger I had to do 100 FOIL equations and show my work. I did not want to do that all by hand and wrote a program to do it. If you got something super repetitive but not super hard, that would be a perfect project.

Adding even more grammar, you could use "Had no", for lack of possession, like

It had no tooling for the fs?

Rip. Shadow Gambit has been pretty fun so far. Not a bad game to end it on I suppose.

Ah crap, yeah, I forgot about that, you're right.

Lol at YouTube comment

well we definitely know it has a map

Also not very hopeful cosidering EAs involvement.

I liked world most too. It has several things rise is lacking. One of which is a serious threat imo. Like, the first time my party ran into anjanath. It just exploded out of some shrubbery and most of his attacks were insta kill. Just having this random threat helped with the world building, suspense on hunts and also gave a clear milestone when you finally get the hunt to take him down. Then there was blood puppy or bazelgeuse, they are all super memorable because of how much of a passive sorta threat they were.

Yeah, I guess. It seems wasteful to need 8GB just to run an OS and browser especially after Microsoft was pushing server core specifically to go the opposite route with resource utilization on servers.
