themurphy,

Marques Brownlee for tech.

He’s also known as MKBHD, and he’s amazing with his camera work.

TV on 18 hours a day, etc

Damn, this frames boomer mentality perfectly.

themurphy,

I hope no one thinks this is the whole explanation, but it’s part of history that is not known by many.

themurphy,

I’m using BCU with no complaints. Why do you think Revo is better? Curious to know if it’s worth switching over.

themurphy,

Many years ago I talked with a friend about racism, and what would be next when we “fixed” that one day.

He said age, and now you mother fuckers have named every single decade and put people in a box with a label stamped to it.

Guys a prophet I guess.

themurphy,

To calculate the odds of getting a passing grade (at least one question correct) or a perfect score (both questions correct) through brute-force guessing, let’s break down the scenario:

  1. Each question has 4 possible answers, and only one is correct.
  2. You have two attempts to answer each question.
  3. You remember your previous answers and do not repeat them.

First, we’ll calculate the probability of guessing at least one question correctly. There are two scenarios where you pass:

  • Scenario 1: You get one question right and one wrong.
  • Scenario 2: You get both questions right.

For each question:

  • Probability of getting it right in one of the two tries = ( 1 - ) (Probability of getting it wrong twice)
  • Probability of getting it wrong in one try = ( \frac{3}{4} ) (since there are 3 wrong answers out of 4)
  • Probability of getting it wrong twice = ( \left( \frac{3}{4} \right)^2 )

So, the probability of getting at least one question right in two attempts is ( 1 - \left( \frac{3}{4} \right)^2 ).

For two questions:

  • Scenario 1 (One Right, One Wrong):
    • Probability of getting one question right (as calculated above) multiplied by the probability of getting the other question wrong twice.
  • Scenario 2 (Both Right):
    • Probability of getting each question right (as calculated above) and multiplying these probabilities together.

The overall probability of passing (getting at least one question right) is the sum of the probabilities of these two scenarios.

Now, let’s calculate these probabilities.

themurphy,

What. If that business model actually works for him, something is wrong with this world.

themurphy,

You could also argue apps that uses some kind of licensed content the app pays for.

I’m not saying I’m a fan of Netflix and Spotify, but they do use alot of money to keep their content available, and not only for server costs.

They still overcharge tho.

themurphy,

Never heard Italy before. Do they have stricter laws than EU in general?

themurphy,

They absolutely work, but you have to have realistic expectations. They are not easy, and they are exhausting.

Also there’s very mixed results based on your location. Living in a city is by far easier to get dates, but harder to get one to settle for you.

At least my experience.

themurphy,

Seems like a solid project.

Can’t seem to figure out how to get this to work on Chromecast? Does it have the functionality?

themurphy,

Thanks! And just so I understand this correctly, do I need a separate router for this + my normal router?

themurphy,

Anyone has a small and quick guide to how to set this up on let’s say a Rasp Pi?

themurphy,

TIL occupied indicators are not standard in the rest of the world.

themurphy,

Can’t we please just edit the headline to include some context instead of copy/pasting the click baity title?

Write which database was leaked, at the very least. I’m not on Lemmy for click bait.

themurphy,

It’s code. Who cares who wrote it if it’s efficient, secure and fast.

themurphy,

Cracking services is pretty dope for many people, but I don’t know if that’s what you are looking for.

I’m thinking of YouTube Revanced, but for Netflix, Spotify, all that. I don’t know if you call that cracking, but it’s definitely useful, and probably challenging.

I use Brave to test whether my websites work on Chromium browsers, but their scummy actions lately make me want to find a new Chromium browser to test with. What's the best Chromium based browser?

I already use Firefox for browsing normally, but I have to test on a Chromium based browser too. One soft requirement is that it should be installable with Flatpak on Linux.

themurphy,

Maybe I’m out of the loop, but what did Brave do?

themurphy,

It’s like calling shareholder a job.

Why are we as humans obsessed with mass-extinction of our species?

I was having a conversation with my friend about this. We were discussing AI and she believes AI will destroy all of humanity just like so many others. I personally don’t believe that. I’m aware of all the theories and the multitude of ways that it could happen and I understand that with AI, in theory we wouldn’t...

themurphy,

When I think about these things, I like to think about COVID as a reminder what the world could accomplish when banding together - and that we will do it again, if shit hits the fan.

We would do the same to other threats if they get serious enough.
