They run at 0.25 degree resolution (same as ECMWF AIFS models).
Comment · 10 months ago
These are available on Weatherbell[1] (which requires a subscription) now except for the HGEFS ensemble model which I'm guessing will probably be added later. AIGFS is on tropical tidbits which should be free for some stuff[5]. I believe some of the research on this is mentioned in these two[2][3] videos from NOAA weather partners site. They also talk about some of the other advances in weather model research.
One of the big benefits of both the single run (AIGFS) and ensemble (AIGEFS) models is the speed and (less) computation time required. Weather modeling is hard and these models should be used as complementary to deterministic models as they all have their own strengths and weaknesses. They run at the same 0.25 degree resolution as the ECMWF AIFS models which were introduced earlier this year and have been successful[4].
Edit: Spring 2025 forecasting experiment results is available here[6].

The browser isn't exposing it to websites. It's simply due to the fact of playing media that it's lowering the minimum timer resolution on Windows. In the past it would also do this when just scrolling among other things if I remember correctly, I'm not sure if it still does this.
Firefox uses a different method that doesn't require lowering the minimum timer resolution.
Either way the global behavior of this is no longer true on modern Windows 10/11 machines (as of Windows 10 2004) as each process must now call timeBeginPeriod if it wants increased timer resolution: https://randomascii.wordpress.com/2020/10/04/windows-timer-r...

Is Zen 5 more like a 4x2 than a true 8 since it has dual decode clusters and one thread on a core can't use more than one?

They've improved things in Windows 10[1] with driver support(?) apparently although I have no experience with this so I can't say how this affects things practically.

Just keep in mind some mobile carries block DoT so it's not always an option (Android does not natively support DoH).

I can't speak to Google forcing DNS, I don't know if this is true. However, it will respect the private DNS option (DNS-over-TLS) which you can point to whatever you want (like NextDNS for filtering).

You are correct. It's not really "new" just that it's still being used.

It's not really recent (2018) just that it's still being used after all this time. If you're using a default config on the home router you're basically already fine (save for changing the default login).

> Very concerned about the recent microtik CVE, as that is going to make for some very large botnets.
To be pedantic there is technically no recent Mikrotik CVE WRT Meris. It was patched in 2018(?) shortly after discovery.
From their response to the Meris botnet[1]:
> As far as we have seen, these attacks use the same routers that were compromised in 2018, when MikroTik RouterOS had a vulnerability, that was quickly patched.
> Unfortunately, closing the vulnerability does not immediately protect these routers. If somebody got your password in 2018, just an upgrade will not help. You must also change password, re-check your firewall if it does not allow remote access to unknown parties, and look for scripts that you did not create.
It goes into more detail to further check/harden the device in the blog post. A lot of issues stem from having Winbox or other admin access not properly firewalled off and open to the world. Blessing and a curse of the power you have with these devices I guess.

> Specifically, Maxwell and Pascal use tile-based immediate-mode rasterizers that buffer pixel output, instead of conventional full-screen immediate-mode rasterizers.

He describes it as "tile-based immediate mode" in the article and the video should go into more detail about it. It's been a while since I watched it.

Chrome distrusted Symantec certs when 70 got pushed to stable (at the end of October)[1]. Digg shows NET::ERR_CERT_SYMANTEC_LEGACY error when I navigate to it. Firefox was supposed to remove the Symantec certs in 63 (also to be released at the end of October) but I guess they pushed it back a version[2].
All major browser coordinated to distrust the certs at the same time.

Although the rendering may still be done in kernel mode the parsing is now done in a usermode sandbox[1] which significantly reduces risks from handling untrusted fonts.

uBlock Origin + Google's Safe Browsing (or SmartScreen if you're an Edge user) should be enough for just about anyone. Furthermore one of the strengths of uBO is the ability to use dynamic filtering[1] which bypasses the filter list problem entirely.

There's also ytdl integration in mpv[1]. The excellent open source media player. So anything you can download with ytdl you can stream in mpv.
