I wasn’t saying the exchange for money happens on Valve’s servers, but it’s Valve who oversees everyone’s inventory. You could hack the game and run a third party account server and give yourself all the knives but they would not be recognized by Valve and thus worthless, unless you convince exchanges that your server is trustworthy and has assets behind it.
I mean, there’s DRM but that hasn’t stopped them ever before…
Do they stand to lose something if they switch? I don’t understand CS:GO economics, maybe there is a sanction-evading money flow via weapon and skin trading on Valve’s servers?
What’s preventing Russians from hacking Counter-Strike and making their own “Кантр-Страйк” servers?
99.999999999999% chance the lava lamp inside your computer is broken.
(The difference from 100% might be my CPU’s floating point rounding error)
That would indeed be way (quadratically) more likely but we don’t count the number of attempts but measure run time, and since comparisons (even with optimizations like insertion sort) take time, the speed difference between the two methods will be “just” a few orders of magnitude.
MP4 is decent at this, it’s the camera’s fault for writing critical information at the end and not retrying on SD write errors. A bad couple of frames is still preferrable to losing up to 20 minutes (yes, that’s the split size, and it loses 5 seconds in between).

My camera shat out an MP4 without a moov atom and VLC nor anything else could play it :( Not even when inserted in the middle of a valid file of the same format.
Yes, ffplay can interpret it as rawvideo when asked but so can it /dev/random
Eww, that’s a kitschy video
The bill could be a playable CD too if you don’t care about folding, or add bends around the central square. The widest rectangle that can be cut out of a CD and still retain a bit of the data area is about 108×51 mm, as opposed to approx. 156×66 mm of a $1 bill.
But yeah, NFC or just printing the data is more viable.
I have a 2013 phone running Android 13. Sony Xperia Z, found in e-waste in 2023 in great condition (except for dust in the camera). I used it a lot and even replaced the battery, although that didn’t make much difference, it just kept overheating and discharging like crazy on modern websites. The notification LED broke in a peculiar way (likely shorted driving transistor, burning it out within hours) and so did the vibrator. Recently, I dropped it and the back shattered but I still carry it every day, although now it’s a secondary phone (can’t get some apps running on my primary one although both are degoogled). It has a 32-bit processor, noisy camera and no fingerprint reader, but a 5" 1080p LCD, MHL (HDMI over microUSB), NFC and headphone jack. And a mediocre FM transmitter that can be enabled with custom drivers for the Qualcomm chip. It was covered in Janus Cycle’s video on monoliths.
Maybe it’s my preference of using older mid-range devices but unlocking the bootloader has been fine, the problem is some banking apps and inferior hardware drivers (worse wireless performance, stretched camera image, no control of flashlight brightness etc.)
And the vertical line? Lools like the corner of a room to me
How is she standing between the wall and the counter?
No. I’ve never used one in Europe but I know they exist here from advertising.
Earth: layer below electricity, melting and disintegrating
Elon Musk: boring through Earth and strapping hopelessly tiny, exploding rockets to the “Electricity” block to get everything to Mars
Sun: lowermost layer but extending a fist labeled “2027 solar flare” at internet infrastructure
Come on, just include the text in the post body if you wrote it. Links are not what this community is for.
I think GNU is worth more than 0.5 Gemini

Not really world clocks, they just try to use JavaScript to display the device’s time.
Vibe spelling doesn’t work. I looked up a spelling on Google and the AI contraadicted itself.
It was in Czech but basically
(Yes, we have different capitalization rules from English. The bold spellings are correct but don’t correspond to the “reasoning”.)
Not to mention all of Grammarly’s brain farts like this.
