I have noticed lately that several sites I’ve tried to login to, some I already have an account, some I am trying to make a new account give me what seems like endless captchas....
This sounds like what TOR users run into. Are you always clearing your browsing data/cookies in Firefox? A fairly blank slate there will raise some red flags in a lot of systems causing the captchas to be aggressive.
Otherwise, maybe you just ended up with a bad IP address that was previously being used for suspicious bot looking traffic?
I would definitely submit a ticket to Etsy about this issue, but this is likely an issue with captcha or whatever they’re using to detect “suspicious activity”.
Edit: I just tried logging in to Etsy and it gave me about 4 captchas for signing in with a “new device”.
Looks like google really needs help training their self driving cars.
For guides to get better at combat, don’t look at anything older than a month or two. The latest update has made some major changes to the combat mechanics. (And in general for this game, older guides for anything get outdated quickly).
If you want to get better at ship combat, check out the videos from Avenger_One. He does a ton of research into ship combat in the game and has put out a lot of useful guides: www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfS0VRkxI24
As far as landing in hangars, there’s a proximity assist setting that’s enabled by default to allow you to easily make minor adjustments as you’re landing your ship in a hangar. The problem with this setting is that it drastically cuts the power to your thrusters while you’re going into a hangar, so if you already have a lot of momentum… you’re not stopping until your ship has become a pancake.
If you mean ping the hangars as in asking the ATC for a landing pad, you can do that in any of your ship’s displays, just go to menu and then look for Comms. You can also open up your mobiglass, go to chat (F11 takes you straight there) then look for the ATC and click the button to call them.
Most pilots just use the Alt+N keybind (tap, don’t hold!) to quickly request takeoff/landing.
Actually, if this is the requirement, then this means our data isn’t leaving the device at all (for this purpose) since everything is being run locally.
Since everything is being run in a local LLM, most likely this will be some extra RAM usage rather than SSD usage, but that is assuming that they aren’t saving these images to file anywhere.
The whole thing is going to be run on a local LLM. They don’t have to upload that data anywhere for this to work (it will work offline). But considering what they already do, Microsoft is going to have to do a lot to prove that they aren’t doing this.
My favorite thing so far has been server crash recovery. It has come a long way where, instead of waiting 10 minutes for the server to recover, they’ve gotten it down to around a minute.
At the worst, if you get stuck on a server that encounters a crash loop, you’ll at least have short windows of opportunity between crashes to make it to your ship’s bed so you can safely logout and switch servers.
Master modes is definitely different and it’s going to take a little bit of getting used to it. I’m not hating it, but there are things that I don’t like that I’m hoping get tweaked.
The A2 has been nerfed since it cant fly as fast during its bombing runs.
I wish shields wouldn’t die off in half a second when switching between modes.
I think we should still be able to use countermeasures (flares/noise) in nav mode.
Some of the changes do feel like they’re trying to simplify controls for something like a gamepad/controller… especially since they’ll want to attract console players to SQ 42 (have we heard anything official on whether they’re trying to get a console version ready for release on Xbox/PS, etc?).
That, and we had a bunch of soft-deathed NPC ships with valuable cargo that despawned (right as we were lining up to offload cargo) because of the crash recovery.

I agree, but it’s one thing if I post to public places like Lemmy or Reddit and it gets scraped.
It’s another thing if my private DMs or private channels are being scraped and put into a database that will most likely get outsourced for prepping the data for training.
Not only that, but the trained model will have internal knowledge of things that are sure to give anxiety to any cyber security experts. If users know how to manipulate the AI model, they could cause the model to divulge some of that information.
Feel free to educate us instead of just saying the equivalent of “you’re wrong and I hate reading comments like yours”.
But I think, in general, the alteration to Section 230 that they are proposing makes sense as a way to keep these companies in check for practices like shadowbanning especially if those tools are abused for political purposes.
@sugar_in_your_tea proposed this theory the other day, and I think it makes a lot of sense. A lot of journalists are feeling threatened by the onslaught of LLMs so I would expect to see a lot more news attempting to shine a negative light on LLMs in any way possible.
Experiments generate quantum entanglement over optical fibres across three real cities, marking progress towards networks that could have revolutionary applications.
TL/DW: A big misconception here has to do with Quantum entanglement. Quantum Entanglement in Quantum Internet doesn’t mean that you can transfer data at speeds faster than light.
It’s true that this connection would be “ultra secure” but this would be very inefficient (slow) and it wouldn’t be reliable in a noisy environment. It would probably be most useful for some sort of authentication protocol/key sharing.
It doesn’t excuse what he did, but there’s a lot more to the story and it has to do with a group of griefers that orchestrate ways to tear apart organizations. They have voice chat planning meetings where they discuss mental disabilities of other players and how to take advantage of that so that they can get them to quit playing the game.
They plan out memes and videos that can be released at the right time to maximize the impact.
They specifically targeted Avenger One with the purpose of trying to get him to combat log through the use of bait/alt accounts and stream sniping.
Some members of that organization didn’t like what they were seeing and turned over discord chat/audio logs over to Avenger One, which he released in a long video. (Definitely a biased video, but he plays long audio logs and isn’t just picking out small snippets). www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqu9O8zCWUI
I’ve probably only seen 5 or 6 of his videos, but from what I have seen he does a lot of research into figuring out the game mechanics and how to dogfight effectively. So, combat logging aside, I think he’s still a credible source of information for things like this.
