Quite a finding (albeit not a conclusion) from the NYTimes here, challenging visual investigations by other outlets that previously suggested a rocket in a specific clip was the one that hit the Gaza hospital.
There are *seven bylines* on this piece. nytimes.com/2023/10/24/world/mโฆ
@ntnsndr just so I understand: is the suggestion that the NYTimes is deferential to US military interests, or the opposite?
(I ask because this piece is *challenging* the U.S. militaryโs own conclusions)

This piece of insanity is from Rossini's "Sins of Old Age". It is played by Alessandro Marandoni. Is you listen closely you start to hear these strange noises. They slowly become more frequent and louder. These noises are in fact Marandoni improvising the sounds of a parrot. Good for a giggle!

I really don't understand AMD on this one. They already have linux versions of their drivers, going so far as to actively better their performance in linux in an open source way. So why exclude this? The biggest part of it is the AI model, something that shouldn't (to my knowledge) be difficult to port to Linux, so why not just port the interface to linux?
Heck, if they release a cli tool and properly document it, I'm sure the FOSS community will make GUIs on their own.
