This has been a legal requirement by the government for a while, in order to combat counterfeit money. Many tools that work with images will complain about banknotes, even printers.

Also it’s not AI based and isn’t sending your image to a server. It’s checking for certain specific anti-counterfeit details of banknotes.

That’s fair. App Store as the GUI equivalent of a package manager makes sense.

You need a browser to install a packages manager on Windows or Mac.

(Unless you’ve memorized the urls you need and can use curl)

This will be useful if you are trying to let multiple people share your computer remotely. If you are trying to set up personal game streaming for one client at a time, try Moonlight and Sunshine (more mature, easier to setup, works on any hardware).

Most games can’t take advantage of more than a couple cores anyway, and the high-core-count CPUS often sacrifice a little clock speed.

The optimal gaming CPU is like 4-8 cores but with a high clock speed. The 32+ core machines are for compute heavy tasks like CAD or running simulations. Sometimes compilers.

It’s cute.

Technically there isn’t a benefit to Michelangelo’s sculpture either.

Really long buildings (bridges) actually do

Lemmy feels a lot less mature than Reddit, for what that’s worth.

This is that “enlightened centrism” false equivalence.

I honestly can’t believe that in good faith you can compare Biden and Trump as equals.

One is a president whos platform is making minimal change.

The other is a president whos platform is to tear down democracy and human rights.

If you honestly can look at these two and say they are equal than I have to conclude you are at least indifferent to maintaining democracy and human rights.

I know the “counter argument” is about Biden and Israel/Gaza, but the thing is, that’s not really up for debate because I don’t believe there’s any chance Trump would be better about Gaza.

There are 2 options:

• death in Gaza and status quo in the US
• death in Gaza and loss of human rights and possibly our democracy in the US

libvlc uses libavcodec

VLC relays on ffmpeg for a lot of video decoding, as do lots of other media programs. Go look up the legal notice on your TV and there’s a good chance the ffmpeg licensing information is in there.

The assumption is OP isn’t a Trump supporter.

The moral of this story is that a healthy dose of competition does lead to innovation

And they aren’t going to come close to winning so if you really don’t like facism it’s probably best to vote for the only non-fascist candidate who has a chance of winning.

• legal immigration ban (thankfully got overturned)
• overturning Roe v Wade, leading to several abortion bans, leading to a serious decline in healthcare for pregnant women in general in affected states
• attempted coup, and stated plans to try again

It’s not “scare tactics” when it actually happens.

Using ProtonVPN probably isn’t doing what you want it to do, since the port they will give you is random, but for your website you will want ports 80 and 443 exposed.

CloudFlare will hide your IP will properly forwarding traffic (and other benefits, like caching images on their CDN, if you want them). Also their free tier is more than enough for something like this.

The way you recover data from a totally dead drive is use a program that scans every byte and looks for structures in the data that look like files e.g. a jpeg will have a header followed by some blocks of content. In an encrypted drive everything looks like random data.

Even if you have the key, you can’t begin searching through the data until it’s decrypted, and the kind of error that makes it so your drive won’t mount normally is likely to get in the way of decrypting normally as well.

I would love to play Infinity Blade again

I’m more interested in what Larian makes next tbh.

The NTFS one is a Samsung EVO 860 1TB. The ext4 is a cheapo generic brand 256GB.

I’ve got an AMD 5950X CPU. The motherboard is Aorus X570 Elite. Not sure about the SATA controller except it’s whatever comes with that motherboard.

In my searching I found something about Ubuntu changing ntfs and ext4 drivers, but I’m not sure if that’s a change between 20.04 and 22.04 or an earlier one. Also the fact that it’s both drives makes me think it’s probably something else going on.

What I do know is something weird is going on, and my googling so far hasn’t gotten me any good results (just things about not being able to mount drives in the first place, or mounting drives as read only, neither of which are this situation).
