The Cybertruck is causing Fortnite players to get Cyberstuck

The Cybertruck is causing Fortnite players to get Cyberstuck

Admit it. You kind of knew this was coming. Late last month, a new DLC pack called the Summer Road Trip bundle offered players a chance to drive the Tesla Cybertruck in games like Fortnite and Rocket League. Now a week later, several Fortnite players have posted videos of a glitch that occurs when they use the Cybertruck during a match.Posts about the Cybertruck glitch appeared on Reddit and YouTube. The glitch happens when you morph a truck into Elon Musk’s boxy behemoth. On exiting the vehicle, a bug renders your Nitro Fists, the melee weapon that’s pretty much exactly…

Common Ports and Protocols

Common Ports and Protocols

Common Ports and Protocols: The Backbone of Network Communication Understanding how data is exchanged over networks is fundamental for anyone diving into the world of computer science, cybersecurity, or IT in general. At the core of this understanding lie ports and protocols, which together form the foundation of network communication. Let's explore what these terms mean and why they're so crucial. What are Ports and Protocols? Protocols are sets of rules that dictate how data is formatted, transmitted, and received over a network. They ensure that devices can communicate with each other effectively, despite differences in hardware, software, or operating…

GNUMAP: A Parameter-Free Approach to Unsupervised Dimensionality Reduction via Graph Neural Networks

GNUMAP: A Parameter-Free Approach to Unsupervised Dimensionality Reduction via Graph Neural Networks

arXiv:2407.21236v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: With the proliferation of Graph Neural Network (GNN) methods stemming from contrastive learning, unsupervised node representation learning for graph data is rapidly gaining traction across various fields, from biology to molecular dynamics, where it is often used as a dimensionality reduction tool. However, there remains a significant gap in understanding the quality of the low-dimensional node representations these methods produce, particularly beyond well-curated academic datasets. To address this gap, we propose here the first comprehensive benchmarking of various unsupervised node embedding techniques tailored for dimensionality reduction, encompassing a range of manifold learning tasks, along with…

Trump complains that Kamala Harris calls him a felon as part of latest bid to get hush-money judge to recuse himself

Trump complains that Kamala Harris calls him a felon as part of latest bid to get hush-money judge to recuse himself

Kamala Harris framing the presidential race as "prosecutor vs. felon" may have touched a nerve with Donald Trump.Such framing is "false" and "inaccurate," according to a new defense filing that asks the judge in his hush-money case to voluntarily step down prior to a pending sentencing that Trump has also challenged."Harris immediately framed her candidacy with a specific false reference to this case as a contest of 'prosecutor vs. convicted felon,'" Trump's filing complains.Harris's framing is an "inaccurate attack," it adds, without describing an inaccuracy. Harris is the former district attorney for San Francisco and attorney general for California; in…

Fine-grained Metrics for Point Cloud Semantic Segmentation

Fine-grained Metrics for Point Cloud Semantic Segmentation

arXiv:2407.21289v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Two forms of imbalances are commonly observed in point cloud semantic segmentation datasets: (1) category imbalances, where certain objects are more prevalent than others; and (2) size imbalances, where certain objects occupy more points than others. Because of this, the majority of categories and large objects are favored in the existing evaluation metrics. This paper suggests fine-grained mIoU and mAcc for a more thorough assessment of point cloud segmentation algorithms in order to address these issues. Richer statistical information is provided for models and datasets by these fine-grained metrics, which also lessen the bias of…

Intel Is Cutting More Than 15,000 Jobs Despite Getting Billions From the US Government

In a move likely to raise a few taxpayer eyebrows, Intel said today that it will cut 15 percent of its workforce, or more than 15,000 jobs, as it struggles to rebound from disappointing results. In March, the US government said it would give Intel no less than $8.5 billion to help it rebuild its US chipmaking operations.Intel said that its revenues were down 1 percent year-on-year for the second quarter. “We do not take this lightly, and we have carefully considered the impact this will have on the Intel family,” CEO Pat Gelsinger said on an earnings call today.…
