for dav1d there is https://github.com/memorysafety/rav1d although it reuses the dav1d assembly and performance is typically slower by a single-digit percentage.
> archive.is is malicious -- as in, uses your browser to launch DDoS attacks, and other things.
I think the attack was itself a response to a doxxing attempt. Also, archive.is being a free service doesn't quite fit with claiming they are malicious. The overall picture seems still positive.
Just run in the console window=null and you are good. It is valuable service until the websites get their shit together and finally fix their payments model.
Works for me. I use only Tor so it is actually far more accessible. Archive.is uses Google's Recaptcha, which for some reason rejects valid solutions submitted via Tor.
You don’t need to MITM it, this was a common pattern for a long time (not sure it still works though). There was no origin verification so you could just use a different site ID and have people respond to captchas you encountered on that site.
Vera Rubin will have Groq chips focused on fast inference so it points toward a trend. Also, with energy needs so high, why not reach for every feasible optimization?
> In 1997, ASML began studying a shift to using extreme ultraviolet and in 1999 joined a consortium, including Intel and two other U.S. chipmakers, in order to exploit fundamental research conducted by the US Department of Energy. Because the Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) it operates under is funded by the US government, licensing must be approved by Congress.
> This isn’t some hipster nostalgia trip or a flip phone for people who think the 90s were peak civilization. This is something way cooler. A phone that gives you back something we didn’t even realize we’d lost. The ability to actually, truly, shut the hell up.
It’s like having a guest room in your house. The app can visit, but it doesn’t get to rearrange your furniture or go through your mail.
Yep. I came here to say "Well hi there chatgpt, I recognise your writing style anywhere &emdash; it's like a bad metaphor that hasn't been thought out. The LLM can predict likely text but that's not the same as making sense."
Having tested dozens of privacy focused devices over the years, from GrapheneOS phones to Purism’s Librem 5. I can tell you that hardware based privacy switches are the gold standard.
You've tested "dozens" of privacy-focused phones, but you're writing about Jolla as if they're brand new and haven't been around for a decade? How did you miss Jolla until 2026?
As far as I understand, people using this site to contact their elected officials were instrumental in making lawmakers back down from ChatControl v2.0. Hoping the same will be true this time around.
> The fact that they will keep bringing it back until we have better people in the EU Parliament just means that we have to win more victories.
But these proposals came not from the EU Parliament (who you directly vote for), but from the EU Commission (who you do not). They have since been revived by several presidencies of the Council, who are also highly likely to be immune to your electoral displeasure. The EU Parliament has no ability to initiate legislation.
The EU-critical minority on HN keeps pointing this out only to receive downvotes, while the same old misunderstandings continue. Any democratic link between the EU Citizens and the Commission is effectively homeopathic.
I am glad that the Parliament had rejected these proposals, but remember the saying… you have to be lucky every time.
Each member state nominates a Commissioner candidate, in consultation with the incoming Commission President. Each Commission candidate is interviewed by a Parliamentary committee, and (rarely) they might be rejected. I suppose you could pressure your MEP if they happen to be on the committee...
The MEPs as a group have to approve the whole Commission as a final stage and could reject them... but this has never happened. The closest thing to this would be the Commission of '99 that collectively resigned over corruption.
