As the infamous mushroom trial comes to a close at the same time as the coroner’s findings in the inquest into the killing of Kumanjayi Walker found that former constable Rolfe, who killed the Indigenous teen, is racist and so is police force’s systems; the media outlets who set up teams to cover the trial will now obviously shift those recourses to covering the police’s structural racism.“We’ve shown that when we want to, we can have entire teams dedicated to covering people being killed,” said one newsroom editor, “it would be a failure of our duty as news outlets if we don’t give the same attention to the people being killed in police custody.”
“Plus, the there is way more to cover here considering the amount of police brutality we are seeing not just in the Northern Territory, but nationwide. So many more deaths, and while sure none of them involve beef wellington, it would be ridiculous if that mattered in our coverage.”

"I live near Nasser Hospital in the west of #KhanYounis city. Almost every day, I hear desperate calls for blood donations made on loudspeakers out of the hospital.
Most of the people who visited the hospital to donate blood suffer from anaemia and malnutrition... two-thirds of the blood units donated at the hospital have extremely low haemoglobin and iron levels, which makes them unusable for blood transfusions."

LOL, I actually managed to do this with a broken spacebar. Half the bar was missing, so I took a completely different model scrap keyboard that was water damaged, carefully cut it in half, secured that with the original half with a couple paper clips and epoxy, and somehow even managed to make the stabilizer bar underneath line up and work.

I am so fucking sick and tired of people claiming that Cory Doctorow invented the term "enshittification". Sure, he popularized it because he's famous and shit, but my colleagues and I had been using "enshittification" since 2010 starting with Oracle buying Sun Microsystems. LONG before Cory Doctorow even knew what that word meant.
And you know what? I'm not claiming that we invented the word either!
Because we heard it from a vendor.
Who probably heard it from one of their customers.
So stop claiming that Cory Doctorow invented the word.
HE DIDN'T.
Anyway, so far I have successfully gotten this binary classifier to say that one random image I have is -1.438 of whatever it is the classifier is evaluating. Which is nothing, because I had to replace the neural net's classifier head and so while most of the network has some pre-training, the final output layer is "take all the knowledge distilled from the image, and return a random guess".
Next step, let's see if I can figure out how to implement a training loop...

NES mapper programming sounds like shitposts or elaborate pranks.
For example, MMC1. Super common chip, used on Metroid, Legend of Zelda, Bionic Commando.
To program it, you simply write five bytes to the upper half of the memory space. The LSB of each byte is added to a shift register and then for the 5th byte the 13th and 14th bit of the address are used to determine which register to program.
this is the kind of thing you'd expect to happen as part of some kind of tricky DRM system but no, the NES's DRM is implemented completely differently (and outside of the view of the CPU).
this is just how you bank switch on the MMC1

Electrical assistance please. I have this sub panel and I want to add a 50 dc breaker to run a 180v 40amp motor for my knife grinder. Is it possible? All the breakers in the panel are 15 amp, I believe this panel just covers my garage and maybe the water heater.
Will I do damage if I just give it a try. Any assistance is sincerely appreciated.
You're right in general, but there are so many cases where the safest advice is "seek a qualified professional", and I generally assume that if someone is asking online then this is already not a realistic option for them.
So yeah, if he took your advice to heart and hired a professional, that would be better. But if he said "damn internet people are so unhelpful, I think I'll just wire it up and see what happens", then my advice is better than that.
