"Like an MRI but at 100 times the speed."

Is speed the limiting factor of an MRI? Do we need faster MRIs? It doesn't seem like there's a backlog of folks waiting for a continuously running MRI machine. How does the imaging compare to an MRI? How about the cost? I think it's a really fascinating project but I don't understand what problems it solves.

Could this work with the actual game files (e.g. purchased from Itch.io instead of Steam) ?

writing your own code is only harbor in this storm. vanilla js cries out into the night sky. will you answer?

Great idea. Seems to be experiencing the hug of death at the moment, though.

It seems like we're hitting a solid plateau of LLM performance with only slight changes each generation. The jumps between versions are getting smaller. When will the AI bubble pop?

Does the blog post explain how this happened exactly? Did he leak his API key in frontend code somehow, or was his project itself vulnerable to misuse? I'm curious how someone racked up 30k in a few hours.

Some of these sound just as made-up as a lot of Western dining "rules." Maybe someone more familiar with the culture can say whether or not these are true faux pas in an everyday ramen shop or similar.

still not into scroll-jacking, but these breakdowns were well-written and documented.

This has been the industry standard for the last 20 minutes. I can't believe people are still using GPT-5.3-Codex.

This is a great point and the reason why I steer away from Internet drama like this. We simply cannot know the truth from the information readily available. Digging further might produce something, (see the Discord Leaks doc), but it requires energy that most people won't (arguably shouldn't) spend uncovering the truth.

Dead internet theory isn't a theory anymore.

I think it's more likely the introduction of the ability to say "fix this for me" to your LLM + "lgtm" PR reviews. That or MS doing their usual thing to acquired products.

Every day I thank NAT that I don't have to memorize IPv6 addresses. I can barely manage my IPv4 numbers.

M2 Ultra Mac Pro with 192GB RAM?

I would not have considered artificially-working the SOC to maintain a steady temp! When the wattage is that low, however, it makes sense to burn a few extra bucks a year versus some kind of overengineered cooling system.

This is a cool idea, but why is it $400? This feels more like an open-source passion project than a legitimate business venture.

It's kind of crazy that they insist on doing basically one of these every year. A lot of people complain that the iPhone stopped changing (meaningfully) between updates several years back. I think Apple Silicon is bound to be the same. I will say that the M4 Mac Mini was groundbreaking in terms of a budget-friendly Apple product -- I hope they recognized why it was loved and continue to iterate in that direction.

Because people have fun creating those sorts of setups. There are many tutorials for those setups, the hardware can be found relatively affordably, and it isn't something someone needs to have experience in enterprise networking to build. The purpose of the hobby is to have fun. If you aren't having fun, or if other people's fun is ruining your day, consider finding a new hobby. I suggest fly fishing. You could probably use more vitamin D.

You're right that the Venn diagram is smaller than it was 5 years ago, but there are still some folks whose primary concern is electricity usage. Even the pi 5 shines there (as long as you don't need too much compute).

I've had a ton of fun with CasaOS in the past few months. I don't mind managing docker-compose text files, but CasaOS comes with a simple UI and an "App Store" that makes the process really simple and doesn't overly-complicate things when you want to customize something about a container.

This scandal comes to mind any time I see amyloid plaque research. Not sure if I misunderstood the scandal or if Alzheimer’s research has too much momentum to pivot. My dad was diagnosed a few years back and seeing stuff like this is always encouraging and infuriating because of this science article.

this is a solid argument against the open-source purists that I've never heard before and really appreciate. Many people would like to make money on the things they spend their time building. Some percentage of those people also love FOSS. Fair source is the middle ground where they can share their work, open it up for criticism, issues, and fixes, but ensure that their business is secure. It's a solid middle ground that shouldn't be demonized just because it isn't open source.

Bless the maker and his water.

I don't know much about this incident or the politics surrounding it, but I am extremely impressed by the level of investigative journalism in this article. The author is a pro who brought receipts for every connection.

This is crazy. Going to surprise my wife with a watch night of these soon. Are these film scans pretty easy to find?

How much heat does it generate and how loud is it at full tilt? Try keep comparing it to a modern under-desk computer, but I’m not sure you’d want to have that thing in the same room while you’re using it?

It seems like Google doesn't want a single machine visiting so many links in such a short time. I wonder what the "bad response" could be?

    Google asks for a login, sleeping 20 minutes.

are there any similar tools/projects where I can use my computing power for good?

What is this container doing exactly? Sequentially visiting every possible goo.gl link, seeing if it points somewhere, and saving that full URL if so?

How soon can I update my raspberry pi 5 from Bookworm to Trixie? Does PiOS have to initiate that first?

It showed up about 4 hours after enabling it. Gradual rollout but it's working great now.
