Oh shit, that had to hurt. A ball of snow that large is probably 50lbs or more and pretty solid. Hopefully the ground wasn't solid too.

according to Mozilla, Firefox 85.0.1 32-bit requires 512 MB of RAM.

Well, Firefox is currently using 800MB of RAM for me and 5GB of virtual RAM. It's the most memory hungry process I'm running. I don't even have that many tabs open. Only about 20.

Good read, though found a typo, which is easy to do when you're used to dealing with GBs and not MBs:

I found Q4OS to be a very stripped-down distribution of Linux that worked reasonably well on my old PC with 256 GB of RAM a

Looks to be pretty free speech so far. Mods wanting to create echo-chambers in their subs is their own choice. But I guess it's good to know that censoring already happens in this capacity. It's unfortunate that mods use these tools to remove something that isn't spam.

Google is by far the worst for this. If you have an account and use it for everything, this can completely utterly decimate your online footprint. I don't know how they haven't faced class action lawsuits for this. It takes a little time, patience, and planning to remove the requirement for a google account from an android phone, but it's well worth it.

Simply put, don't depend on google for anything. Not just because they completely violate your privacy, but also because they simply don't care about you from a customer service point of view. Articles like this are great for teaching normies to avoid one-account-everywhere that google wants people to implement.

dude you have to understand that all forums are user created if you want to not censor things on your forum thats your choice as long as it doesnt violate tos. but if your upset with /f/politics mod maybe talk to Rambler see if he can do anything but running your own forum is the best thing to do.

You'd think they'd get tired of jogging. They jog everywhere. Including kids places. If only the media would accurately report the menace that joggers are. Maybe then business could at least be allowed to prevent joggers from coming on their property.

Many years ago I needed a face database for some AI work. Everything I could find for free was crap and it wasn't worth the price to pay for any of the better ones. For a few weeks I took a two hour lunch in the tourist area of town at the busiest fast food place. I parked right by the sidewalk and had a camcorder record HD from my car. I filtered out people who didn't look at the camera or who's face was partially covered. Lighting was consistent because it was always recorded at the same time of day. I probably had 5-10k faces of usable quality though I never tried training with the full data set. A few of the other grad students in my lab asked to use it when they found out about it. As far as I know my filtered version of that database is still floating around at the university.

In short, there is way more data than can even be identified floating around. That being said, the Facebook dataset is likely a treasure trove of interesting stuff. I can't imagine what deep learning on millions of pictures with their associated metadata could figure out. It's sad that data isn't being used for good.

Wrong forum, so I'm removing this.
