The inverters are meant to come with anti-islanding to detect when it's been disconnected from the grid, which applies to both regular PV installs and a plug-in panel.

autokbisw solved the per-physical keyboard layout problem for me, switching between the Macbook's layout, a US keyboard, and a UK keyboard.

All new/renewing enterprise contracts with Claude Enterprise and ChatGPT Enterprise no longer offer usage-based subscriptions, but instead will charge API pricing for all tokens consumed, and as you've said, the subs are better deals than raw API pricing.

There's prior art from Claude's own scheduled tasks' jitter: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/scheduled-tasks#jitter

> Recurring tasks fire up to 10% of their period late, capped at 15 minutes. An hourly job might fire anywhere from :00 to :06.

> One-shot tasks scheduled for the top or bottom of the hour fire up to 90 seconds early.

OpenRouter tells you if they submit with your user ID or anonymously if you hover over one of the icons on the provider, eg OpenAI has "OpenRouter submits API requests to this provider with an anonymous user ID.", Azure OpenAI on the other hand has "OpenRouter submits API requests to this provider anonymously.".

The comments are all from the same author.

OpenRouter recently started enforcing account-level regional restrictions for providers that enforce it (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) - ie blocking accounts that look like they are being used by users in China. The regional restriction used to be based on the Cloudflare edge worker IP's geolocation and enforced upstream, so a proxy/server running inside of supported regions would get around the geoblocks, but now OpenRouter are using (unspecified) signals like your billing address to geoblock. People say "banned" because the error message says "Author <provider> is banned", which really should be read as "Unable to use models from provider due to upstream ban".

Microsoft has been taking steps to mitigate the leaked code signing certificate problem.

On the driver side of things, new versions of Windows no longer trust the cross-signed certs, so you must submit your driver to Microsoft to validate and sign, so no private key to go missing. https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/windows-itpro-blog/...

On the regular Authenticode side of things, the new CA/B Forum rules have prohibited storing new private keys outside of hardware modules for a while now, so eventually you won't be able to find a leaked private key for code signing that would still be valid.

The author was running a quantised version of GLM 4.5 _Air_, not the full fat version. API pricing for that is closer to $0.2/$1.1 at the top end from z.ai themselves, half the price from Novita/SiliconFlow.

You sort of can on Android, but it's a few steps:

1. Trigger Circle to Search with long holding the home button/bar

2. Select the image

3. Navigate to About this image on the Google search top bar all the way to the right - check if it says "Made by Google AI" - which means it detected the SynthID watermark.

Depending on which shared GCP project you get assigned to, mine had a global 300 million tokens per minute quota that was being hit regularly.

Bad news then, they've bumped 3.0 Pro pricing to $2/$12 ($4/$18 at long context).

So the Bigscreen Beyond 1 and 2? They've optimised entirely for weight at ~100 grams.

I can finally tear down my custom DERP server that I was using to get higher throughput between two NAT'd clients.
