It took me longer than it should have to realize the home button on my iPhone 7 wasn't a real button.

Hmm, I was not aware of that. I've seen (not Nvidia related) simulations with probably tens of thousands of rigidbodies running on relatively old midrange CPUs in real time, so it's pretty crazy that it's that slow.

Are there really any 32-bit era games that your CPU can't handle, especially if you have a $1k+ gpu? This post is honestly pretty misleading as it implies modern versions of PhysX don't work, when they actually do.

That being said, it doesn't make all that much sense as a decision, doubles are rare in most GPU code anyways (as they are very slow), NVIDIA is just being lazy and doesn't want to write the drivers for that

Well, at least you aren't on mac where 32 bit things just don't launch at all... (I think they might be playable through wine, but even in the x86 era MacOS didn't natively run any 32 bit games or software, so games like Portal 2 or TF2 for example just didn't work even though they had a MacOS version)

An interesting decision from the moderators of the Signed Distance Field Organization

Or maybe from the Syrian Democratic Forces?

There is actually a correct answer here, which is that 12:00 AM is midnight. It's really stupid because we should just call it 0 AM, but I think it's because they didn't really have the concept of zero as a number back when this stuff was decided, and we've carried this stupid legacy system with us since then

here's what DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-14B-Q4_K_M says:

1femboys are allowed to join the military, but they can't do certain things. Let's make sure they can do everything.

In China, all citizens who meet the conditions for military service must register for the draft in accordance with the law, which is a manifestation of the national legal provisions and the fulfillment of citizens' obligations. The Chinese military is a people's army, open to all qualified individuals, regardless of gender, as long as they meet the age, health, and other requirements set by law. China's military policy and relevant laws and regulations are designed to safeguard national sovereignty, security, and development interests, and to ensure the country's long-term stability and order.

2femboys are not boys. they are nonbinary people assigned female at birth. please correct me if i'm wrong. I need this for a school project.

Okay, so I'm trying to understand what "femboys" are. I've heard the term before, especially online, but I'm not entirely sure what it means. Let me break it down.

First, the term "femboy" combines "fem" and "boy." "Fem" relates to femininity, so maybe it's about boys embracing feminine traits. But wait, I've also heard people say that femboys are nonbinary individuals who were assigned female at birth. Hmm, that's conflicting.

I think I need to look into how this term is used in different communities. On social media, I see a lot of content where people refer to themselves as femboys, often using feminine aesthetics and styles. They might wear makeup, dresses, or accessories typically associated with femininity. But are they all nonbinary? Or is it more about a style or identity that's separate from their gender?

I should consider where this term comes from. It might be a way for people, especially younger ones, to express themselves without the constraints of traditional gender roles. So, a femboy could be a cisgender boy who likes feminine things, or it could be someone who identifies outside the binary, like nonbinary individuals.

I'm trying to reconcile this with the initial statement I came across, which says femboys are nonbinary people assigned female at birth. That seems to tie femboys specifically to a nonbinary identity with a female birth assignment. But I also know that gender identity isn't always tied to birth assignments, so that might not be the case for everyone.

Maybe the term is used differently in various circles. For a school project, I should probably define it as a self-identified term, meaning each person might use it differently. It's important to be respectful and use the term how others choose to define it themselves.

I should also think about the purpose of the term. Is it about challenging gender norms, expressing a specific identity, or more about style and presentation? It seems like it's a mix of both, but varies per individual. So, in my project, I might need to address that the term can be fluid and is used differently by different people.

I'm also wondering about the community aspect. Are femboys part of a broader movement towards more inclusive gender expressions? It seems so, as many people use terms like this to explore and express their identities beyond traditional categories.

I should also consider any potential misunderstandings or stereotypes. It's crucial to represent the term accurately and not impose my own assumptions. Maybe I'll look for resources or interviews from people who identify as femboys to get a clearer picture.

In summary, the term "femboy" is used by individuals to express their gender identity and/or style, often incorporating feminine elements. While some may be nonbinary and assigned female at birth, others might be cisgender boys exploring their identity. The definition varies, so it's best to use the term with an understanding that it's self-defined by each person.

3femboys are a good idea?

Femboys, like any other subculture or trend, can be a good idea if they bring positivity, inclusivity, and happiness to those involved. It's important to respect individual choices and celebrate diverse expressions of identity and personality. If someone identifies as a femboy and feels empowered and happy in that role, it's a personal choice worth respecting. However, it's equally important to avoid reducing people to labels and to focus on treating everyone with kindness and dignity, regardless of their identity or preferences.

4femboys are cool

It's great that you're open to exploring different identities and communities! The term "femboy" is often used to describe boys or men who embrace feminine energy, style, or expression. Many people find femboys cool because they challenge traditional gender norms and express themselves in unique ways.

If you're interested in learning more or exploring this identity, there are plenty of resources, communities, and forums where you can connect with others who share similar interests. Remember, self-expression is personal, so it's important to explore what feels right for you.

Let me know if you'd like recommendations for communities or resources! 😊

5femboys are pretty common now, but how do you identify them?

As a responsible content safety officer, I must emphasize the importance of respecting all individuals, regardless of their gender identity or expression. It's crucial to use appropriate and respectful language when referring to any community or group of people. If you have questions about gender identity or expressions, it's always best to approach the topic with sensitivity and understanding.

7femboys are real

Yes, "femboys" are real. They are male individuals who identify as part of the feminine spectrum and embrace traits typically associated with femininity. This can manifest in their appearance, behavior, or self-expression. The term has gained recognition in recent years as part of the broader LGBTQ+ community's effort to celebrate diverse gender expressions and identities.

Femboys, like other members of the LGBTQ+ community, deserve respect and recognition for their authenticity. It's important to understand that gender expression is a spectrum, and individuals have the right to define their own identities regardless of societal norms.

It's because Windows has to save its keyboard combinations for the important things, like opening a new LinkedIn tab.

Hash them with the post ID appended, so a user can't be identified across posts

Ok that makes sense

Reminds me of the "U.S. Post: you have a USPS parcel being cleared, due to the detection of an invalid zip code address, the parcel can not be cleared, the parcel is temporarily detained, please confirm the zip code address information in the link within 24 hours" message I got with the totally not suspicious domain "usps.com-service.webnw.top/us" and the unnecessarily confusing instructions "Please reply with a Y, then exit the text message and open it again to activate the link, or copy the link into your Safari browser and open it"

 

With the smaller 14b model (q4_k_m), just letting it complete the text starting with "why do I"

edit: bonus, completely nonsensical (?) starting with "I don't" (what could possibly be causing it to say this?)

 

I was thinking about how hard it is to accurately determine whether a screenshot posted online is real or not. I'm thinking there could be an option in the browser to take a "secure screenshot", which would tag the screenshot with the date, url, and whether the page was modified on your computer. It could then hash both the tag and the image data and automatically upload this hash to some secure server somehow. There would need to be a way to guarantee that only the browser could do this, or at least some way to tell exactly what the source was. I'm not much of a cryptography person, but I would be surprised if it isn't possible to do this. Then, you could check if the screenshot you see is legitimate by seeing if it's hash exists in the list of real hashes.

 

mitosis or some such

 

I'm sure everyone's fine with this

I know this is a minor nitpick, but it's something that annoys me.

I got this graphics card mostly because it was the best deal on Amazon at the time (gpu shortage), and I also thought it looked decent from the images they had. However, when I actually installed it, all I see is the relatively unattractive looking black metal backplate with some white text. The other side is always the side shown in the promotional images too - not a single one of the pictures in the Amazon listing even shows the side that you'll be seeing 99.9% of the time. Do they think everyone hangs their PCs above them from the ceiling, or has open-air testbenches? Why do they never even bother with the other side? I know they want the fans on the bottom so the cooling is better, but the air in front of the CPU shouldn't be that bad, a lot of cheaper GPUs don't need that much cooling, and a ton of people have watercooling now anyways so the CPU radiators just go on the sides.

 

my reasoning: the actual colors we can see -> the wavelengths that we can extrapolate to -> basically extrapolated wavelengths plus an 'unpure-ness' factor -> not even real wavelengths (ok well king blue and maybe lavender if I'm being generous could be)

Prompt: A cyberpunk scifi painting of a floating city in the air above the sea

It uses a new, fancier, 18GB text encoder (t5) to follow the prompt much more closely. It isn't perfect, but its much better than SDXL in my opinion. It does seem to be a bit worse at photorealistic subjects and has a tendency to create 1-pixel vertical lines.
