I also use the DS4, I'm impressed by the work Sony have done there, especially by the out of the box support for gyro. No configuration for Dophin, Citras and Yuzu (and their forks). Literally easier than on Windows.

The hottest model now is flux, and the community is gravitating toward it after the failure of stable diffusion 3.
Tooling around it is still nascent and it is very demanding (12GB+ VRAM GPU highly recommended) so you could also start with Stable Diffusion XL, fairly mature at this point.

So the UK pulled out of EASA because they didn't want to follow them.
And then they still want to follow EASA rules and want EASA to follow UK rules (basically EASA) in reciprocy ?!
It is moronic, just accept EASA regulations like about the whole world. No one is going to accept a regulation regime that fundamentally diverge from either the EASA or FAA.

This isn't true anymore, Intel dropped AVX512 since they moved to Big+Small cores design while AMD actually implemented it with Zen 4.

This could be useful for making synthetic aviation fuel at scale. Need methane + hydrogen + lot of energy.
Copper is abundant compared to the other rare earth catalysts, thus reducing cost.

The end result is that basically no one will be subject to this tax bracket.
It is high enough that everyone at that level will mainly get their real income from stock/loan which aren't salaries.
Having this tax bracket or not having it is, basically the same for the super wealthy. The real method to tax them is through capital tax, not income.

If you already didn't know, you can run locally some small models with an entry level GPU.
For example i can run Llama 3 8B or Mistral 7B on a 1060 3GB with Ollama. It is about as bad as GPT-3 turbo, so overall mildly useful.
Although there is quite a bit of controversy of what is an "open source" model, most are only "open weight"

> GPT-4o (“o” for “omni”) is a step towards much more natural human-computer interaction—it accepts as input any combination of text, audio, and image and generates any combination of text, audio, and image outputs. It can respond to audio inputs in as little as 232 milliseconds, with an average of 320 milliseconds, which is similar to human response time(opens in a new window) in a conversation. It matches GPT-4 Turbo performance on text in English and code, with significant improvement on text in non-English languages, while also being much faster and 50% cheaper in the API. GPT-4o is especially better at vision and audio understanding compared to existing models. >Prior to GPT-4o, you could use Voice Mode to talk to ChatGPT with latencies of 2.8 seconds (GPT-3.5) and 5.4 seconds (GPT-4) on average. To achieve this, Voice Mode is a pipeline of three separate models: one simple model transcribes audio to text, GPT-3.5 or GPT-4 takes in text and outputs text, and a third simple model converts that text back to audio. This process means that the main source of intelligence, GPT-4, loses a lot of information—it can’t directly observe tone, multiple speakers, or background noises, and it can’t output laughter, singing, or express emotion. > GPT-4o’s text and image capabilities are starting to roll out today in ChatGPT. We are making GPT-4o available in the free tier, and to Plus users with up to 5x higher message limits. We'll roll out a new version of Voice Mode with GPT-4o in alpha within ChatGPT Plus in the coming weeks.

The document urged the EU to break away from dependence on Russian fertilisers, by investing in innovation on made-in-Europe production and developing alternatives using chemical nitrogen. FertigHy wants to replace hydrogen – a key element in the production of nitrogen fertilisers – currently produced from natural gas with hydrogen produced by electricity. Initially planned for Spain, the plant will be built in France and will use electricity generated from nuclear and renewable sources, emitting reduced levels of CO2.

Yes, in the EU the minimum recording time was recently increased to 25h. It is not a tech limitation anymore. What is actually limiting are privacy concerns from misuse of the longer recording.

Pneumatic tires have always been made of vulcanised rubber though. Natural rubber is way too soft to hold up in this application.
Vulcanised rubber is a bio-based plastic, but being bio-sourced has nothing do with it being biodegradable. And vulcanised rubber isn't.
There are bio-based-plastics that aren't biodegradable, and fossil-based plastics that are biodegradable.

> Dans le cadre de la réforme du marché européen, la France s’escrime pour que ses actifs nucléaires existants puissent être couverts par des contrats d’écart compensatoire bidirectionnel (contracts for difference, CfD, en anglais). > Ce type de contrat permet de fixer un couloir de prix de vente de l’électricité sur le marché de gros européen. Si le prix de vente est inférieur au plancher du couloir défini, l’État paye la différence au producteur. Au-dessus du plafond, le producteur rémunère l’État. > des CfD sur le nucléaire existant permettraient de maintenir la concurrence sur le marché français de l’électricité, tel que le faisait le dispositif d’accès régulé à l’énergie nucléaire historique (ARENH) institué en 2011 et voué à disparaître au 31 décembre 2025. > L’ARENH permet aux concurrents de la branche «fourniture» d’EDF, les fournisseurs dits «alternatifs», d’accéder à une partie de la production nucléaire de l’électricien français à des prix préférentiels. > l’ARENH n’a pas tenu l’ensemble de ses promesses, notamment sur la libéralisation parallèle du marché de la production d’électricité.

>Initially, the European Commission proposed two lists, one of which included so-called “strategic” technologies subject to a 40% domestic manufacturing target and fast-track permitting procedures. >However, this list did not feature nuclear power, a move that sparked outrage among its advocates on social media, particularly in France. >However, things took a new turn on Tuesday. >The compromise list now includes renewable energy technologies, nuclear fission and fusion technologies, energy storage, carbon capture and storage (CCS), hydrogen transport infrastructure, and electrolysers, among others. >
