I really hate people or LLM talking to me like this. It sounds either obsequious or sarcastic.

I like this quote.

While Nikon doesn't do a great job on focusing (figure 1), it does a great job on VR (vibration reduction, or Image Stabilisation for Cannon and Optical SteadyShot for Sony).

Picture 2 is shot under a low-light condition, which my camera model is not expensive enough to handle it, so I limit the ISO to 6400. If the picture is still underexposed, then I just give up since that means my camera can't capture this scene.

However, with limited light and the shutter speed well below the safety range (usually the safe shutter speed is 1 divided by focal length, in this case, 600mm should use at most 1/600s, which is 1/640s in my camera), it managed to capture one photo that is in focus, and sharp enough to let DXO Photolab to recognize all the details and enhance them.

Amazing. (of course, DXO is also an amazing software)

I sincerely don't understand why people will include emoji in their writing.

This will be a new reason for me to not like python.

Wait, what?

Ministry of the Interior of France, telling me the BreachForums is reopening?

Must be some email trick. Can't verify on my phone but maybe France government doesn't enforce their dkim settings. Or they really get hacked?

Compared my recordings with the soggfy‘ogg. Other than the silence is a bit off (I still didn't figure out a perfect way to decide when the new song starts), the rest of the content is more or less identical (in terms of hearing)

I think we should have a law to enforce every song to have a 100ms silence at the end. Otherwise it's a headache for me to decide how to cut the spotify recordings. LOL

Trying to find a HD portrait for Father Godwin, but no luck. So I tried Gemini 3 pro. God that works so great.

Remind me years ago when I first tried waifu2x.

Looks like the highest vote answer on StackOverflow is not always correct.

I set `access_log off;` to disable the nginx logging, according to this post: serverfault.com/questions/3185

Guess what I got? A 13GB file just called "off".

oh no

Spent the weekend to take care of my friend, who has FluA and fever, and ibuprofen can't bring down the temperature, so we went to the hospital. Now he is feeling much better, but I guess now it's my turn.

Hopefully it's the same FluA, not something else I picked up in the hospital.
