Personally I think it's fallen out of fashion. For my blog I'd either use a meme or other dump picture for each post. When generated images first came out I used a few for blog posts, it was new and interesting and said "I'm interested in technology and like playing around with new things".
Nowadays I'm back on the meme pics. I feel now it's so much easier to generate images, it more says "I want to look professional but also spend no money and have no standards".
Nah bugger that. Famous actors are known by a vast majority of people. It is not normal for open source programmers to receive abuse to the level of death threats. That only happens when you get the attention of kiwi farms types.
I always assumed that Poettering is an arse to people because of the hate he got for systemd. I imagine it's hard to see the best in people when there's a crowd of haters everywhere you go. Though I have no idea what he was like beforehand.
You can read IAEA's press releases for each attack. They go through the precise function and nature of each building and access the potential danger. Though they haven't updated for the US's latest bombing.
lol. Nicholas Kristof was in Beijing at the time, his contemporaneous article was critical of China and the CPC, but said "There is no massacre in Tiananmen Square, for example, although there is plenty of killing elsewhere." The original article is paywalled, but here is a 2004 interview where he repeats that no one died in the square, and sticks to his death toll estimate of 300-800.
The Chinese Red Cross deny saying that, so I mean insert your own conspiracy for that one. No idea who the Swiss Ambassador was at the time, the reference is to a book.
Like Hawke said it seems like the graphics card or driver crashing. Very hard to troubleshoot, especially when it's random. Bazzite probably already has very recent drivers, there's this post on the bad website listing some things to try. This stuff can lead to superstitious thinking, with people changing something, rebooting to have it work fine for a while then they post that change as if it fixed it.
God speed.
The Clearing the Square section recounts the timeline of the military entering the square and it being totally empty by 6am. I guess you could count the three soldiers killed by the crowd, but that's not what most people mean.
Your motherboard wouldn't happen to be an AsRock? There's been reports of ASRock mobos in particular causing problems with 9000 series AMD chips, especially the X3D. Mate of mine running windows has been having it crash especially when idle at desktop.
I'm not familiar with a green Linux equivalent to the BSOD. Is it completely green? In that case it may be a graphics problem...
My understanding is that it's technically against their TOS but loosely enforced. They don't specify precise limits since they probably change over time and region. Once you get noticed, they'll block your traffic until you pay. Hence you can find people online that have been using it for years no problem, while other folks have been less lucky.
Basically their business strategy is to offer too-good-to-be-true free services that people start using and relying on, then charging once the bandwidth gets bigger.
It used to be worse, and all of cloudflare's services were technically limited to HTML files, but selectively enforced. They've since changed and clarified their policy a bit. As far as I've ever heard, they don't give a toss about the legality of your content, unless you're a neo Nazi.
OpenAI noticed that Generative Pre-trained Transformers get better when you make them bigger. GPT-1 had 120 million parameters. GPT-2 bumped it up to 1.5 billion. GPT-3 grew to 175 billion. Now we have models with over 300 billion.
To run, every generated word requires doing math with every parameter, which nowadays is a massive amount of work, running on the most power hungry top of the line chips.
There are efforts to make smaller models that are still effective, but we are still in the range of 7-30 billion to get anything useful out of them.
