Hello Friends,
Sorry I have not been around lately. All last week I had jury duty in a murder trial.
It was a very intense experience but also very interesting.
It is easy to read the news and form an opinion on a case, but when you are on a jury, you can only consider the evidence and testimony presented to you. Which can be much different than other people have access to in the media.

Although it can be a big inconvenience to stop your life and be on a jury, it's such an important part of our justice… See More

system, and I am glad that I took it seriously and put as much thought and effort into the process as I would hope someone would do for me if I were on trial.

You should take the time to learn about the concept of jury nullification in case you are ever called to the duty again. —

I bought some Arctic MX-4 Thermal Compound for my cpu cooler because I was getting some weird temperature spikes. (It worked great.. problem solved!) On the package there is a QR code that says they are giving away $1000 / month and to scan for a chance to win. But the QR code is so small my phone could not read it.
Luckily I had a jewelers loupe sitting nearby which I put over my phone lens so that it could scan the code.
Now here is hoping I win that $1000

Yes it has a life span like any other except its constant and there for you can time your serving accordingly because of this constancy. —

Of course now I see that if you just go to their website and read through the fine print there is a link to the entry form so it is possible to get there without using the silly QR code. —

Looking for suggestions on a good wireless keyboard/mouse for when I am gaming from the couch. I usually use my steam controller, but some games are just better with a keyboard.

There are already coolers with screens, so when they do it full surface it could come out much like this.
For an april fools, it comes pretty close to what we might actually see in the future. —

A year and a half ago I got a really good deal here on GTribe for a Corsair Vengeance M60 mouse. It served me well. But one thing I really missed was a free spinning scroll wheel. So I decided it was time to retire the mouse and switch to a Logitech G G502 Hero. I just plugged it in and am really happy so far!
Yay for superfast scrolling action!

This website shows images of people generated by AI.
Hit refresh to see a new image. It's pretty interesting. Some are really good.
But I think the AI seems to have a lot of trouble with glasses, ears, earrings, or areas around the edge.
Some, like this image are a complete fail. It looks like perhaps it was trying to make a hat or helmet and gave up. The neck, ears, and shirt collar are weird, too.
Nonetheless, it's pretty impressive. I wonder if in the future people… See More

will have jobs as experts to determine if a photo was generated by AI or not.
Or maybe we will get to a point where it is impossible to know.

Imagine this technology used for quick character generation in various games.
A greater selection for your Baldur's Gate Hero sheet...
An interesting world population generator where everyone is different and won't need an artist to create each and every thousands of characters in each scene.
Slowly moving away from clones... —

Interesting indeed. That is a good point. Have to keep in mind that currently you can track images and even know if and when it was dated by simply looking at it's exif data. Unfortunately, this only works about 40% of the time as it depends on if an image has been compressed and how it was edited. —

Was trying to find that one. I saw it on twitter, but could not locate the original video.
Only found another one of what looked like a similar frog, but not as good a reaction.
I searched for screaming frog, but obviously shrieking was a better description. —
