  1. Nice, maybe I could add nutritional values, I have the european table for >1000 different spices/herbs/etc.
  2. Gemini with high score? now that's a good joke.
  3. I just tell to avoid explaining and spit out code, 60% of the times I have to correct it or provide detailed instructions, after some cursing and manual fixing, something useful remains.
  4. Fake... GPT acknowledges to be similar but not the real one, and even explains why.
  5. Two words: echo chambers
  6. The saddest part is that current workers only knew about this in the news (at least in Portugal). MS is lacking some spine or balls?
  7. I was one of the affected customers, guy offered me 2 years subscription at cost zero, it's something, but I will never trust this company again, neither lifetime subscriptions.

    Same with web hosting, nice 30 bucks deal some years ago, ended this year, saying they cannoy support the costs anymore, wow, who would guess that a business is not profitable when you give stuff away.

  8. Embedded storage was actually very common some decades ago, remember seeing it in a lot of devices, mostly 3G USB Modems, there was even a AT command to enable/disable it.

    Seems that the origin of the "chinese hack" theory can be just resumed to: younger people not being used to this kind of old stuff.

  9. Allow us to filter out China apps and most of the problems with rogue apps will be gone.
  10. Privacy, of course. Corporate data is not the same as the e-mails you send to your friends.
  11. I like to keep my mental sanity.

    J.K., I really admire who uses C, but it's not for me.

  12. Interesting but... The first website I've tried it (which I'm currently working on due to a change of platform) couldn't find anything other than the main request, and I know for sure there is a POST reguest to the API to get some data (I had a scrapper working, website changed, had to re-do the scrapper again).

    I've checked the tutorial, seems that I'm not missing any step, the software simple cannot capture anything if the request is made on the main page, seems to work fine with forms, buttons and "manual" actions.

    I can DM you the website plus the expected request that is made, visible with any browser internal debugging tools.

  13. meh... My only issues are: sound/multimedia and inconstant font size/type, other than that, perfect.
  14. RIP Martyn. Thank you so much for creating Worms. Decades ago, I got a demo of the game on a magazine CD-ROM. At first, I hated it because there was no documentation, and I kept blowing myself up. However, a couple of years later, I gave it another shot and absolutely fell in love with it. I still play it with my son to this day!

    Thank you, Team-17, for making such a timeless game that continues to bring joy to generations.

  15. I might be wrong, but truly believe that you're another victim of bad implemented AI. Something triggered a bad switch, probably due to buying too many domains in such a small ammount of time? Like if you were using the domains for spam or something. Hope it gets fixed soon.
  16. Eh... doesn't have data after October 2023.
  17. Ah Snap, 1st thing to uninstall :)
  18. Trust me, you got lucky, they "randomly" selected passengers with those kind of bags for inspection due to measures, 1mm above? charged! Emphasis on randomly, because the pattern was simple: foreigners? charged, locals? go on. We've saw a poor guy squeeze the hell out of his backpack to no avail, it fitted the measuring box, still, charged because "you had to squeeze it"; guess what, plenty of room under the seat, the guy could put two of them. On me? bag had wheels, foreigner, automatically selected for inspection, took the wheels away, still charged because "it had wheels first". I've flew a dozen companies, not even Ryanair, the low of the lowest treats passengers like this.
  19. Now do the same with airline companies. WizzAir charges the crap out of you for everything they can. Do not fly with WizzAir!
  20. LG owner here. I won't connect it to wifi, lan or BT. Once in a while nags me to do it, I might do it eventually, in it's own VLAN and without Internet access.

    Here in Portugal all ISP provide a smart box, most of them also have common services like Netflix and so on, no need to any "smart" feature from the TV itself. Completly useless.

  21. Same in Portugal
  22. And still, we have BSOD's
  23. In theory yes, however, in pratical terms you just need to "bomb" the right places and 90% of the communications would be gone for quite a while. Think PIX and DNS root servers, destroy those, and only minor services would be available. There are countries with a single PIX, sitting in regular rooms without any kind of security, unplug those and the whole country would be offline (to be fair, intra-ISP traffic would work). And there's no need to go that far (bombing places), a bad actor that can cut some submarine fiber in the right places would cripple the whole world. Or just someone messing up BGP config in a big ISP, no need to bomb or destroy anything, a single bad command can cause major issues worldwide (had happened before).
  24. Allow us to filter by country. Ignoring chinese apps fixes 80% of the problem!
  25. Doesn't work with uBlock Origin; disabling adblock produces results but no images at all.
  26. I've made a few changes in my software, use Base64 instead of numerical values, now I'm getting the following error: "Nonce must be 1-64 characters long and consist only of Base64 characteres"

    Whih is really odd, since my string has only 51 chars and all chars are valid within the Base64 group.

    If I remove the padding ("=") then it's good to go, however, there is a string in the scoreboard with "=" in it (garethgeorge/AHQAAAHPe0Q=)

    Did the user bypassed the javascript check using curl or something?

    Also, this could use some adjustments:

        const nonceRegex = /^[A-Za-z0-9+/]{1,64}$/;
        if (!nonceRegex.test(nonce)) {
            alert('Nonce must be 1-64 characters long and consist only of Base64 characters');
            return false;
        }
    
    Personally, I would use const nonceRegex = /^[A-Za-z0-9+/]{1,64}(={0,2})$/;
  27. "AI Wave" being -> cheaper indian workers that cannot keep up with the support tickets and move them all over emea, asia and US. Azure AI that helps with tickets cannot replace a real agent.
  28. Imagine trusting ChatGPT for something important. OMG. My apologies, But I cannot feel any kind of sorry. Even for my private projects, I hardly trust on it since it allucinates a lot.
