OsrsNeedsf2P··on Multiplayer tanks that demolish real buildings from OpenStreetMap
You're on HN, where people celebrate YC companies that in "defense". The majority of people in our networks would bomb a house if it completed their next round. Let's not pretend that we're surprised people defend this.
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Dutch 'idealist' bank ASN blocks non-Google Android, including GrapheneOS
Why would someone want a replacement just because someone else tells them their hardware has reached end of life?
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Cuban: Facebook knowingly runs AI deepfake scam ads; docs say $16B fraud revenue
I worked in a team that was only tangently related to this. There are hundreds of people at Meta who knew this was going on.
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Guerrilla bike lanes: San Francisco makes illicit infrastructure permanent (2016)
Your comment explains why guerrilla bike lanes are in fact better than civil suits
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Nvidia RTX Spark encrypted firmware slows inference speed to 35% on Linux
As someone who went down the rabbit hole of local AI, there is so much exhausting debugging already. Even if this is "just" another step you have to find, it's toxic.
OsrsNeedsf2P··on WTF Ubuntu?
It's the default for my VPS provider
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Reddit will require an account to access
Lemmy?
OsrsNeedsf2P··on China increasingly depends on copying American AI
The IPO must go well
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Cuba is skipping its November 1, 2026 clock change and staying on DST until 2027
manually rolled datetime library screams
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Claude Code regularly sends each background agent’s transcript to its model
This is an A/B test
OsrsNeedsf2P··on New iMac with M6
How is it that after 10 years of Apple releases, people are still complaining about it "missing" feature X? Not having every checkbox ticked is Apple's way of having shiny new releases all year round.
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Ask HN: Linux at work revoked due to MDM, how to fight?
Linux lover here. I've changed jobs over not being able to use Linux. Unfortunately, that is hard to do in this market.

Compliance, however, is annoying (and mostly bullshit), but it's required for signing massive contracts. So unless you can work within their compliance systems (I.e figure out which auditor/platform they're using), your argument about "my manager said" is gonna fall on deaf ears.

OsrsNeedsf2P··on Around a dozen banking apps began specifically permitting GrapheneOS
Is this new? It's unclear why the word "began" is in the title
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Air Purifiers as White Noise Machines
What? pm2.5 is smaller than pm10. You can have a bunch of larger particles that aren't small
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Quad9 to exit France
> We could add these names to our global malicious domain blocking database, which is what we use to provide internet users with malware and phishing protection. This is a single, monolithic set of names applied to all users of our protective services (9.9.9.9 & secondaries) globally but not to our nonprotective services (9.9.9.10 & secondaries)

I see how that could work against a service claiming to give users the DNS lookups they expect

OsrsNeedsf2P··on Revolut down as users report app not working
The uptime of cash in my wallet is pretty close to 100%. It's extremely rare that I have to use it, but it's incredibly convenient to have each time it's required
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Ask HN: Dark mode for HN please? (2026)
Darkreader
OsrsNeedsf2P··on DeepSeek-v4.1-Flash-1017
It will not. Ask DeepSeek about Tiananmen Square. It will happily answer
OsrsNeedsf2P··on DeepSeek-v4.1-Flash-1017
DS isn't better than Sol and Gemini in the benchmarks, but after working with them all for a while now I'm beginning to understand why people find DS _feels_ so much better.

First, it's the tok/s and TTFT from providers. Deepseek blazes through work - at quite good quality - and you don't find yourself waiting for your agents to finish.

Second is the openness. Being able to see the CoT and not being randomly blocked for cyber review. You're never wondering if it's stuck or if it will randomly fail. Combined with the great cost value.. My next subscription will probably be Z.ai

OsrsNeedsf2P··on Sorry we made you grind LeetCode
As someone who is top x% on Leetcode (I think I also held the longest daily streak), I would say Leetcode is a test of perseverance. I became a worse developer because I spent time on Leetcode instead of my open source projects, but it taught me marathon long grind. I truly believe its unintended positives are somewhat worthwhile.
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Talorys – A self-hosted personal AI agent on Cloudflare's free tier
I got my bill reversed after having an AI agent pester them long enough
OsrsNeedsf2P··on REA Reverse – Engineer Anything
Oh I'll be trying this out for the OpenBFME project!
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Google Playground: Create and play custom games
We've hosted an AI game development platform for a while now and found there's a big difference between "making a game" and "making a fun game". I'd love to see if they are solving the real problem, but the link to try it out is a 403 for me.
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Photopea creator weighs in on Photosuite project
I'm currently working on OpenBFME[0] and I can assure you, enough LLM power guessing at the code in the binaries is enough to get the code for anything

OsrsNeedsf2P··on We're working on a new RuneScape MMO
The IP seems stickier than the graphics. People didn't revolt on Rs3 graphics because it was different, they revolted because they were bad. They've since improved and people seem to like it
OsrsNeedsf2P··on We're working on a new RuneScape MMO
Jagex blunders hard and gets very lucky each time. The entire Oldschool RuneScape idea came from a private server whose owner was sued out of existance by Jagex, only for the community to revolt, and when official servers launched, they only survived because Jagex upper management forgot about their existance until the community did enough marketing for it.
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Apple's "Clean Design" Is Stupidity When It Comes to Hiding Fire Extinguishers
No no. IPhone will "just work". Only Android needs the code to enter
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Using any C++ library in Godot
The point is that it's compatible, not that it's the recommended way of doing things.
OsrsNeedsf2P··on Owed a billion dollars in Nvidia stock
> if someone did this to me this is pretty much grounds for an irreparable relationship.

If someone tried to claim what was contractually theirs?

OsrsNeedsf2P··on Back and shoulder surgery is often worse than useless
One of the reasons I left Canada was it took me 6 months to get an MRI after a severe head injury in 2017. I have since gladly paid nearly 500k in taxes to other countries. Fuck Canada.
