Probably double-sided prototyping PCBs. The double-sided ones tend to be green (FR4 fiberglass resin), the single-sided orange (FR2 paper phenolic-resin).

Terminology varies, a lot of greymarket sellers use “veroboard”, “prototype board” and “breadboard” interchangeably.

The glue between the copper pads and the board itself tend to better with the double-sided boards, I agree with you OP :) Although this isn’t universal, I’ve had some nasty bare copper boards on FR4 where the pads pop off when you try to solder to them; and some old FR2 boards with really well adhered pads. I’ve read somewhere that this might (?) be due to moisture in the PCB boiling off when you put the soldering iron to a pad and that baking the board in an oven first can help, but I have not tried that. I suspect a lot of it comes down to the quality of adhesive used between copper and substrate.

I hesitant to say that this shouldn’t affect you. I’m sure that somehow, somewhere, Optus still managed to ruin your day. Hope it resolves SynopsisTant.

There are no changes to the nbn wholesale pricing of these speed tiers arising from the speed increases.

Interesting, but how will this affect the price for end users? There are other fees charged to the ISPs too?

I am suspicious because NBNco only mentions wholesale pricing in this article, not end user pricing. They would have modelled it and then chosen not to talk about it. They might not technically be the entity finally billing you, but they’re responsible for strong and direct impacts on what users pay.

It’s a gorgeous game experience. Not to mention they put so many other gamedevs to shame with their technical accomplishments (especially in the expansion – flooding waves in a ringworld!).

Don’t look up spoilers. Get yourself a copy and play it. Find somewhere to land your spaceship :)

Ditto three. Pages hanging too.

Lots of gastro cases in NSW the last few weeks, maybe server has it too. Make sure to take plenty of fluids.

The leakage scenarios for alkaline cells never seem to make sense.

I would recommend rinsing the vinegar away with water instead. It’s already completely dissolved, but the baking powder might not be if you add that undissolved. You don’t want to leave anything behind.

Girls can’t wear pants… is this the 1950’s? Absolutely awful

Atomic wafers made by the techo-church-state? Or have I got this back to front and this is how the non-technical society irradiates its children?

Comedy prediction: SD2 releases overseas, but Australia is used to sell remaining stocks of SD1s for a few years before the SD2 is released here.

The whole thing is vaguely and noncomittally worded, it promises basically nothing.

Take this bit for example:

taking into account the EULAs of specific games within it

In other words: talk to the individual publishers of each game and get their permission :P At which point GOG’s involvement is almost irrelevant, if you have the publisher’s consent then they might as well give you a copy.

I would assume that court orders and proved wills have different levels of coercion when you present them to someone like GOG? Dunno. Each country probably has its own rules, including fun complexities like whether or not GOG was a party to the process or not.

Wait a second… if the AI was trained to think that blue flags lie down and red flags are windswept, then what are the biases of the footage was it trained on?

A good sign - the company behind the show does appear to hire "Documentalist"s, which I assume means they put some effort into historical accuracy. The video itself has a much longer credits list for them.

The company’s about page claims they use historical footage, but make no mention about re-enactment footage (that I suspect they use, but I might be very wrong).

The video’s credits have lots about archive sources. At a cursory glance I can’t see anything about re-enactment.

Maybe it is all real footage? Perhaps I’m just imagining that some is re-enactment? But some of it seems like it would be really weird to have a camera there and people acting that way. IDK, I wish the program made it clear-cut for me.

Title of PCGamer’s article is misleading, they want a court order to do it. Proof of death is not enough.

“In general, your GOG account and GOG content is not transferable. However, if you can obtain a copy of a court order that specifically entitles someone to your GOG personal account, the digital content attached to it taking into account the EULAs of specific games within it, and that specifically refers to your GOG username or at least email address used to create such an account, we’d do our best to make it happen. We’re willing to handle such a situation and preserve your GOG library—but currently we can only do it with the help of the justice system.”

They have to do that anyway. Court orders overrule a company’s policies in most (all?) legal systems.

Here’s a short excerpt with a lot of editing. I am not sure which parts are period or not and to what level the editing has been done.

• Sphere in wall: anyone know what this is?
• Periscope rising: unnatural movement, probably just because of AI frame interpolation?
• Machinegun barrel wiggling from a bunker: footage is looped backwards and forwards.
• Scene panning #1: possibly a still photo that has had the ocean animated, then panned left to right?
• Scene #2: Real photo I assume.

SBS is an Australian TV broadcaster, partly gov funded but not fully (unlike the ABC).

Some short excerpts for the purpose of demonstrating examples of questionable footage (short enough that they shouldn’t be a copyright problem, for purposes of criticism, review, research and study).

Which of this footage is real and which is re-enactment? Is the photo of the clapboard separate to the video before it, with the camera flash transition inbetween?

This ship footage looks like it could be real. The quality is amazing however.

Direct evidence of AI colourisation: a flag that changes colour

I assumed this was an XKCD when I saw it.
