Parking assist is incredibly old: Toyotas had it 1999. You can get it off the shelf from Bosch.
Should even be legal to install on your own, given that it's only steering the car, not operating throttle or brake.

If you want to be the google of cars you shouldn't be building cars, but become Bosch.
Level 4 exists in the form of Waymo, who operate on roads with shoddy regulations (random US municipalities), so probably not proper Level 4. Also exists in Japan, which does have proper regulation but from what I know it's still a pilot.
Level 3, conditional automation, is becoming quite standard in the upper market segment. Things like traffic jam assist: You can actually take your hands off the wheel and eyes off the road, when traffic clears up the car will alert the driver to take over again, or, that failing, pull over on the shoulder and presumably call emergency services.
Tesla's stuff is Level 2, needing constant monitoring by the driver.
When you send a message, that usually fits into an IP packet. That gets completely encrypted by the wifi, but you know that a data packet approximately that size has been sent at exactly that time. Simultaneously, you watch the IRC channel and see when messages are arriving from your suspect, or someone else types a message and that should correlate with another encrypted wifi package.
The mistake was a) using wifi, exposing the data in the first place and b) not torrenting while you're chatting. That would've obscured the time correlations.
It’s not 90s tech though, especially for China.
Their latest x86 CPU is comparable to Kaby Lake in cycle speed which is only 8 years old, except it comes with more cores and supports DDR5 so it might as well be a first gen ryzen 7.
You're confusing process nodes and chip design, here. Chinese indigenous process tech is on a 90s level, or at least the most behind parts of it are (e.g. they may have good domestic sputterers but their lithography lacks behind). They're using off the shelf DUV for the bulk of their chip production, bought from Japan, the Netherlands, etc.
And they're good at DUV. Taiwanese and western producers switched over to EUV to achieve better nodes, China couldn't get at EUV machines and is squeezing the last nanometres out of DUV. Still not using domestic machines, though. Those DUV machines are what the Dutch are threatening right now.
No it isn’t, especially for weapons grade Uranium. Look at Iran, they’ve been perpetually “10% away from a bomb” for more than 20 years and still haven’t succeeded.
They probably either a) already have but aren't telling anyone or b) strategically kneecap the programme and use it as a political pressure tool. Like the deal they made, remember. Iran is practically uninvadable also without nukes and everybody knows it.
On the other side of the spectrum, both when it comes to "actually really, really wants to have nukes" and "barely past stone-age": North Korea did it already, the tech is bulky but also very well understood and comparatively primitive. Yes, more complicated than a washing machine, but nowhere close to chip making.
The only reason Pakistan succeeded
50 years ago.
It doesn’t matter that it’s DUV, they just want to ensure they make it harder for China to catch up, so even last gen tech is on the line because they believe it can be studied and reverse engineered.
The US don't have legal means to stop the Dutch doing DUV anything. They have for EUV because they developed that tech, but not DUV. Which means it would need to convince or strong-arm the Dutch government, which has larger implied political costs and would only make sense if they're also doing it with the Japanese. We'll see whether that happens.
imo it’s a stupid shortsighted policy, but it’s nothing new for the US pulling these types of moves.
They very much like to protect Intel, yes. The issue with Intel isn't their fabs or processes (the occasional hiccup nonwithstanding) it's their complacency in design. As a pure-play fab Intel would be neck-by-neck with TSMC.
Neocities already has its own internal engagement stuff (with people following each other, commenting on updates etc), it probably wouldn't be too hard to throw that into ActivityPub.
Just like wordpress though neoticies is much more "here is my stuff, browse through it" oriented than tumblr, which is at least 70% towards twitteresque "here's a firehose of different stuff of different people please make comments and retweet every image".
Some German guy got got for logging into IRC via encrypted wifi, the cops did some war driving and correlated timing of traffic spikes with IRC messages until they had a profile with better hit probability than a DNA match.
The best thing about that? They didn't even need a search warrant as our genius was broadcasting the side-channel to the whole neighbourhood.
If broke ass Pakistan could figure out how to make fissile material and nukes in their backyard, China sure as hell gonna figure out how to fabricate chips without any external suppliers or contractors.
It needs a special kind of technical illiteracy to think those two things are in any way comparable.
China can fabricate chips, all on their own alright, they have home-brewn equipment. So can Russia, and the chips you get out of that suffice for military use. It's like 90s tech. Russia doesn't have scale either that's why they're buying Chinese.
Enriching uranium and making nukes, in comparison, is banging rocks together.
Also I don't think the US is involved in this, at least not directly: The US hold license for the tech underlying EUV lithography, but this is about servicing DUV machines. You can get that kind of machine from e.g. Nikon, It's just as likely that this is the Dutch still being mad over MH-17 and want to pressure Xi to pressure Russia.
"Any video in any program" is not how it works for you right now, either. And if you need something, then definitely not in every program but in your video editor because you're a professional.
As to software: I'm on Linux. You won't get that nvidia software there, either, in Linux land everyone gets those features because they have nothing to do with what GPU you have. Well at least mpv does it all, natively or via standard plugins (also AI frame interpolation), TBH I don't really care how firefox plays videos as long as VRR works, which it does.
Didn’t Meta try the same argument? I very much doubt this will work in court.
They shared, and processed, much more than post data. When you click on "reply" on your next post you're consenting to publishing what you wrote, you're not consenting to lemmy.world sending metrics about how long you seem to have looked at an ad to the yanks. You're not consenting to having your typing patterns analysed to build a psychological profile. All that is data that your instance's web UI could collect, but doesn't, and also doesn't share with anyone. Meta does.
Clearly, a number of people explicitly do not consent to having their data sent to just anyone. I think they have the law on their side.
They are free to use platforms which share information less freely. But that's kinda pointless: As long as he information is publicly accessible, and you very much agree to the information being publicly accessible when posting it in a public forum and pretending you don't understand that won't fly in court, it is necessarily available world-wide in one way or another.
There's some wibbles about details here, e.g. votes are aggregate in the public-facing view, while on the instance level you can see who voted how. That's, in my understanding, why the devs proposed making them public also on the web interface: So that it's clear that it's public information.
Under what conditions, scraping is legal is mostly unanswered right now.
Scraping is perfectly legal in the EU. It's like making a copy of a newspaper: You can get in trouble for distributing that copy, but not for making it for your own archival or whatever purposes.
I originally posted this with regard to embedding images.
lemm.ee actually proxies images. I'd say that it'd be good practice to proxy anything that needs to get loaded by browsers to display the page.
The GDPR goes a step further by giving you rights over certain data, turning it into something similar to intellectual property. The dogma that we should turn everything into private property and leave it to the individual, and then a miracle happens, is to me libertarian or neoliberal. Suggest a better word if you have one.
It's you who introduces the term "property", there. The European legal tradition considers the whole topic as part of the right to informational self-determination, if you want to call that a "property" then only in so far as honour or glory or bodily integrity are also property.
The neolib position, I think, could be better described as private data being a) a commodity and b) the identified person does not actually have any inherent rights to it. They don't want to pay you, lowly peasant, for collecting data about you, they are always and everywhere in favour of their own privilege of owning all the things without equitable exchange. Less insane liberals may still formulate things it terms of property, but then have the basic common fucking decency to assign property of your own data to you. They may even limit some of the commodity aspects.
When you have one big producer (one big hydro-electric dam or coal power plant), then stabilizing the frequency is trivial, because you only have to talk to yourself.
Your frequency is still influenced by a million and more consumers. And that's before blind currents come into play.
When you have 100000 small producers (assume everyone in a bigger area has photovoltaics on their roof), then suddenly stabilizing the frequency becomes more challenging, because everybody has to work in exactly the same rhythm.
...and? Everyone is getting the current frequency via the network, everyone knows what it should be, everyone can do their own small part is speeding it up or slowing it down.
The actual issue is that huge big turbines have lots of inertia which, through their inertia, naturally stabilise the frequency. On the flip side inverters (like with solar panels) can regulate the frequency actively, what's iffy is smaller AC generators like wind mills. But then there's also battery and capacitor banks.
It's a thing network engineers have to worry about, but it's not some insurmountable problem. We're already doing it. Insular networks have been doing it for ages, e.g. in Germany Berlin's network wasn't part of the eastern one and they always used stuff like capacitor banks to stabilise it.
All that aside yes in the future there's probably going to be a high voltage DC network in Europe. Less so for private consumers, at least not in the foreseeable future, but to connect up large DC consumers, that is, industry, with DC power sources. If you're smelting aluminium with solar power going via AC is just pure conversion loss.
Had he used an ethernet connection, that is, a cable, he would not have broadcasted his traffic to the neighbourhood and police would have needed much more of a clue where he lives (not just "this general area") and also a search warrant.
What's particularly remarkable is that not having wifi at all at home, or only for their phone, is quite common among IT professionals: It's faster, less prone to interference, and in case you mess up some encryption stuff at least you're not broadcasting everything into the whole neighbourhood. All around the better option no paranoia required. But then you have an actual black hat, the type of people who tend to not just wear tinfoil hats but tinfoil underwear, make such a basic OPSEC mistake.
