If you need to you can always replace the shorts part in the url with watch to get the normal interface back.

They say the story isn't true, but the source they cite in the very next sentence says:

Das Beispiel, das wie ein Hollywood-Szenario daherkommt, hat sich wirklich so zugetragen. Es zeigt, wie vielseitig digitale Angriffe geworden sind.

(This example, which sounds like a Hollywood plot, really happened. It shows how ~~multidimensional (my mind blanks on a better translation right now)~~ EDIT: diverse cyber attacks have become)

Edit: I hate microblogging sites. Apparently the thread continues on and the company who made the statement in the cited article has backtracked and admitted that this was a hypothetical. It did not happen.

Let's not pretend these are kids who have a test for their first time. They all were told to not cheat and that cheating would lead to expulsion.

At university most teachers have serious dedication. It's just not for teaching, lmao.

But once you do your thesis, discussion in their respective fields of research or general expertise is really awesome.

Converting from jpeg to jxl comes some serious space savings and can be done losslessly.

The original image formats for the web, jpeg, gif, png, all have major benefits compared to each other. That's why they were successful.

We change video formats without any major benefits of one over the other. I think it's totally reasonable to do the same with image formats. Especially the data can be losslessly compressed even more.

I wouldn't call speed a major factor for image processing anyway. It's hugely important for movies, where AVIF is coming from, but much less so when there is no hard 30x2160x3840 pixels/s benchmark you need to reach.

There is a difference between indifference and actively working against something.

Nice

Only host what you need.

I'm reading some /r/hfy stories. Since I no longer get notifications for reddit pm, I have replaced it with the RSS Feed for "posts by user xxx". RSS also works like a subscription on royal roads, the alternative that a lot of writers switched to.

Works perfectly well, I'm very happy with it.

I'd consider those various states of not working. So... Don't fix it if it's not broken!

It depends if underpowered means "too slow" for you, or "slow". I would consider the meaning more similar to "too slow", i.e. I think the reference point matters. Therefore for me the pi is not underpowered, just low powered. [Edit: to keep the discussion on track, I would therefore consider the pi "good enough", which was the original claim in the second level comment]

Of course in terms of absolute numbers the pi has not a lot of processing power.

FYI, scientific research papers are more often than not copyrighted.

Thankfully sci-hub.se exists.

It entirely depends on what you want to do with it. So calling it underpowered is not a statement that can be made in general.
