aand16on Choosing a Public DNS Resolver

Yours is not particularly problematic but I've always wondered how come advertising agencies allow highly controversial topics on their billboards in the US.

I know some (all?) EU advertisers deny creatives based on optics i.e. "our name and logo is on the billboard frame, we don't wanna get associated with topic X".

It's a work phone, I don't see the issue.

aand16on US court rules Ohio can restrict children's use of social media

Isn't the synchronised effort suspect to you?

Porn is arguably as damaging and addictive as social media. How do you explain the inaction regarding child access to porn in the last 25 years?

aand16on I told them forced consent was unlawful. 5 years later it cost Elkjop €1.8M

> You can also add `ngram-mod`, but after `draft-mtp`

It looks like there's a hardcoded preference, CLI order is not important.

(speculative.cpp:1322-1381): common_get_enabled_speculative_configs converts the types vector to a bitmask (order-independent). Then configs are added in a hardcoded priority order:

ngram-simple

ngram-map-k

ngram-map-k4v

ngram-mod

ngram-cache

draft-simple

draft-eagle3

draft-mtp

(speculative.cpp:1557-1603): common_speculative_draft iterates impls in the hardcoded priority order. Once an impl produces a draft for a sequence, later impls skip that sequence.

I'm wondering if anybody actually manages to use a new Nvidia account.

After logging into my shiny new Nvidia account, I'm presented with a banner saying "contact support to verify your account at help@build.nvidia.com".

I've contacted Nvidia support and haven't heard back. But they did send me a newsletter...
