Can Tesla's Self-Driving Software Handle Bus-Only Lanes? Not Reliably, No.
  • Can AI driven systems handle anything? Not reliably, no.

    There, fixed it for ya.

  • Alternative to Nvidia Shield
  • Which Shield device do you have?

    You could get great improvements replacing the internal mechanical hard drive for a SSD.

    Did it for mine, and the speed improvement is very noticeable. Specially when updating or rebooting the device.

    I used this guide, and I'm still seeding the drive image torrent: https://xdaforums.com/t/nvidia-shield-tv-ssd-done.3402580/

  • Looking for a good RSS Reader
  • Glad to hear!

    And the developer is quite responsive, open up a GitHub issue with the details and I'm confident it'll get sorted out.

    He's also on Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@_jocmp

  • Looking for a good RSS Reader
  • Not exactly what you asked, but if you're gonna read from Android, I highly suggest CapyReader.

  • Is Linux Ready For Mainstream Gaming In 2025?

  • What's up, selfhosters? - Sunday thread
  • Yes it is!

    Although I can't migrate from CORE and have the service migrated seamlessly unless I use VMs.

    And I don't know docker containers, so it is something else I'd have to learn and understand. If I have to choose, I'd probably learn LXN/Incus instead.

  • What's up, selfhosters? - Sunday thread
  • I've been slowly, but steadily, migrating the services I run on my TrueNAS CORE (FreeBSD) from Jails to Debian VMs so I can migrate to TrueNAS 25 (no more SCALE it seems, and Linux) around April without many hurdles, hopefully.

    Besides having to learn some systemd, it has been a smooth ride.

    Now I'm down to the last 2 services, which I think are the most complicated setups I have and with no nice deb packages to ease installation: Paperless-ngx and Photoprism.

    I'll probably look into playing with Containers (LXC/Incus) to have the same lightweight and efficiency as Jails once the migration to Linux is done. But honestly, if everything is running nicely, I won't be very motivated to do so, let's see.

  • A pirate's life
  • "My friend", sure.

  • Landscape [1600x1000]
  • It being pixel art, I'd say it stretches very well. If you use nearest neighbor scaling, that is.

  • Microsoft and OpenAI ‘bromance’ begins to fray
  • Blame Altman on that one, from the article:

    Altman once called OpenAI’s partnership with Microsoft “the best bromance in tech,”

  • Reasoning failures highlighted by Apple research on LLMs
  • I wouldn't doubt that LLMs got some special input to deal with the specific examples of this paper, or similar enough.

  • TIL that this cartoonish piranha catching technique actually works
  • I wrote red soil, but more specifically, where I lived there was Terra Roxa (purple soil?), which seems to be a kind of red soil according to the English Wikipedia page: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terra_roxa

    And it is the prevalent soil on the north of the state of Paraná, regarded as Brazil's agricultural barn: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraná_(state)

    So it does confuse me that the state's soil would be unfertile, as I grew up learning how good it was and surrounded by prosperous farms.

    The Portuguese Wikipedia page does talk about it being fertile (no English translation): https://pt.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terra_roxa

    So maybe it isn't a type of red soil in the end; or there are some types of red soil that are (very) fertile.

  • TIL that this cartoonish piranha catching technique actually works
  • Brazilian here. Perfectly safe (color-wise; of course it can be polluted as hell despite its color, just like any other river).

    Our ground/mud has a different color. Some areas on the south even have a red soil (very fertile, but makes everything about ground level look dirty very quickly): https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_soil

    There's great variety of water colors even in the same area, just search for images "meeting of the waters Manaus":

    confluence between the Black river of black water and the Solimões river of muddy water, where the waters of the two rivers run side by side without mixing

  • AMD plans for FSR4 to be fully AI-based — designed to improve quality and maximize power efficiency
  • I couldn't get a good understanding if AI will only be used for Frame Generation (which I'm not so enthusiastic about, with its latency and quality issues) or for upscaling too (that I'm quite a fan of).

  • How to Monetize a Blog
  • Probably good to add a /s somewhere here.

    I suspect people are down voting without checking the piece.

    I know I would, but I saw it shared on Mastodon in a cheeky way first.

    Will Gamers Nexus feature Adata's 10% DDR5 temp improvement?

    Technological feat aside:

    >Revolutionary heat dissipating coating effectively reduces temperatures by more than 10%

    78.5C -> 70C = (78.5 - 70) / 78.5 = 0.1082 = 10% right?!

    Well, not really. Celsius is an arbitrary temperature scale. The same values on Kelvin would be:

    351.65K -> 343.15K = (351.65 - 343.15) / 351.65 = 0.0241 = 2% (???)

    So that's why you shouldn't do % on temp changes. A more entertaining version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhkYcO1VxOk&t=374s
