With their air-filled Air-Win design with Twin-Seal ear tips, the new generation is said to offer up to 1.8 times better noise reduction than its predecessor, the Sleep A10, according to the manufacturer. Among other things, they are equipped with a ...continues

@danie10 Color me VERY intrigued, as someone who (a) sleeps on his side, (b) has taken to sleeping in a separate room from my spouse due to snoring, and (c) where foam earplugs start hurting my ears after about 3 nights.

@leoncowle yep I'm ina similar situation. Just a pity that things like feeling, smell, etc just can't be described objectively for everyone. You have no choice but to try it. But I'm going to look at a few reviews, as I see there was an A10 model before this, which may have had a few reviews.

I am pretty impressed with the normal Souncore Liberty 4 NC earbuds that I currently use.

"Instead, the work these generators churn out look uncanny, smooth, and generally off in ways that are both obvious and not [...], it also struggles with statistically improbable prompts like “a horse riding an astronaut,” which still seem exclusively the province of human imagination"

I enjoyed participating in this interview with Thommy Delaney from @BlowUpRadio !

His questions indicated me how deeply he experienced my album "Digital Carnival," preparing us to have a meaningful and entertaining conversation about it.

“Most people are not aware of the resource usage underlying ChatGPT,” Ren said. “If you’re not aware of the resource usage, then there’s no way that we can help conserve the resources.”

In July 2022, the month before OpenAI says it completed its training of GPT-4, Microsoft pumped in about 11.5 million gallons of water to its cluster of Iowa data centers, according to the West Des Moines Water Works. That amounted to about 6% of all the water used in the district, which also supplies drinking water to the city’s residents.

Why do women still face criticism and trolling over the way they dress, walk and look. People give their unwanted opinion upon their life decisions. When will they let women live on their own terms without being constantly judged?

The famous Indian actress, Deepika Padukone recently became the target of intense online trolling after revealing her baby bump when she came to cast her vote in Mumbai.

Should you build your own NAS or buy a pre-built?

An interesting read, and I have to say I do lean more towards building your own. I did buy a bare-bones NAS by D-Link many years ago because you could add your own hard drives, but what I discovered after a few years was there were no more software ...continues

"You're not technical enough" is often said to women. In the Tech Leading Ladies blog, Michelle Gleeson unpacks the reasons for this and suggests how to push back on it.

Early access on Patreon! Geekom's new mini PC is a MIGHTY MOUSE at a great price!
https://www.patreon.com/posts/geekom-a8-mini-104755258
This tiny PC is now packing the most powerful laptop chip AMD makes!
Funnily enough, Microsoft threw AMD and Intel under the bus.
NONE of the current selling "AI" PCs qualify for the "CoPilot" branding.
Who knows, maybe you don't want that new Microsoft Recall feature on your system anyway?
