The first quote is not even a quote from Aristotle but from Will Durant’s book, The Story of Philosophy (1926)


"Don't believe everything you read on the internet" -- Sun Tzu


I thought that was Descartes


The saying is a paraphrase of Aristotle's ideas on virtue.

Technically the words are that of Durant but the core idea is Aristotle.


Pretty low effort article I like the quotes but yeah.

My favorite part is the useless comment bellow each quote like: "The commenter above has stated that the quote is not from aristotle, this is important for the article"


Same here! Any recommendations for newer french electro artists?




Nothing more to add here but lovely to see yours and the commentor above you's tastes. I got well into a few of these artists after playing Hotline Miami for far too many hours (followed by HM2, platinum on both).

Terrible shame about Kavinsky :(


Wouldn’t say newer as have been around a while but French79 (start with Hometown) are brilliant.


+1 for French79, especially his album “Olympic” (2016)


I enjoy Vitalic, not sure if he's newer but has decent body of work :)


Older I think but still active.


Newer is not specifically it since I'm getting a bit too "old / nostalgia" now, but here is a small list (songs chosen are not specifically their biggest but ones I like to come back to)

French79

- Hometown https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yAv5pLO37mE

NTO

- Invisible https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFIcEwCPWZ8

Worakls

- Trauma Worakls Remix https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6QFfmwFT3k&list=RDf6QFfmwFT...

- Salzburg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tTber0f8qc&list=RD_tTber0f8...

Uppermost

- sooo many ... Dance is iconic to me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TeOByrJgak

- Flashback https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZAECHHJ8U4

- but his Revolution album gives a good walk around https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=83zdpv_ovow

Gesaffelstein

- Hate or Glory https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_NgkfRmUPk

- Viol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYtpobVmYY4

M83

- you probably already know them, but Outro https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eyjj8BgsBGU

Danger

- 4h30 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVUo4W4XFiI (my personnal king of "you had to be there", thus a live music exemple)

Justice

- Stress (warning it and its clip are true to its name, it got awards, it got also banned from primetime) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWaWsgBbFsA

- D.A.N.C.E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sy1dYFGkPUE

Or a ton more really, JM Jarre / Daft Punk / David Guetta really help breed an insane french electro scene each on their own way.

EDIT: in a Kavinsky thread I feel like I should include

Carpenter Brut

- Turbo Killer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=er416Ad3R1g

- Le Perv https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYtVf0wvPpc

Pertubator

- Future Club (you know it from Hotline Miami) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RY66fdMt4vc


Would throw Air in there, though it's more chillout/triphop than techno:

Thanks for this! I created a Spotify list for future reference: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3QbfwerjjiFUvip6Xbkbq6?si=...



Also, London Grammar did a great cover:

Danger and justice! Great mentions!


Also worth mentioning the game Haven that Danger did the soundtrack for, one of the few game soundtracks that are great independent of the game as well:

https://haven-game.bandcamp.com/album/haven-original-soundtr...

Floating around listening to music is nice once you get the hang of it (took me a while). With a bigger budget could have been one of the best games ever; as it is there are some significant limitations but I recommend it:

I'll add Lueur Verte:

https://lueurverte.bandcamp.com/album/crystalica-ep


i will "yes, and" with tepr - minuit jacuzzi https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jh1XNjd_HN0


For French musicians (who haven't already been named), I'd also recommend Madeon, Laurent Garnier, and Noisy Freaks.

For an American musician in the synthwave genre (a bit like Kavinsky), I'd also recommend Com Truise


I really like ANORAAK


Not exactly new but newer, Polo and Pan are great.


Adding Lewis Ofman, Sebastian and Paradis


hahaha that made me smile, well the era of napster and such it wasnt so far fetched i suppose


How would one get around this if they found themselves in such a situation?


In this exact scenario, just use ports other than :443

But GFW certainly had the capability to block all ports. So no one really knew.


Well for starters recreate the situation and test out different approaches. Thanks to the detailed analysis that can be attempted.

If I understand right, a good next step would would be with eBPF or some type of proxy ignore the forged RST+ACK at the beginning.

Then it would come testing to see if sending a bunch of ACK packets, perhaps with sequence numbers that would when reconstructed could complete the handshake. Trying to send them alongside the SYN+ACK or even before if it can be predicted. Maybe try sending some packets with sequence id 0 as well to see what happens.


> ignore the forged RST+ACK

See <Ignoring the Great Firewall of China> in 2006. That won't work if RST/ACK was injected to both sides.

Trying to send them alongside the SYN+ACK or even before if it can be predicted. Maybe try sending some packets with sequence id 0 as well to see what happens.

This is an interesting approach already being utilized, namely TCB desync. But currently most people tend to buy VPN/proxy services rather than studying this.


I've been using Astrill to bypass the GFW for almost a decade. It's a bit expensive, but worth it.


What about for things like moving objects? I’ve used the AD pluto system but looking for something more affordable


This is the first thing I thought too, the name confused me with the company and brand Vocera, I thought it was from them.


Feedback taken. Thanks for your input. Definitely we will evaluate this


You can do this yourself with Shortcuts app.

Create a timer function to run a shutdown on a time interval you order. Change shutdown to "restart".


You clearly haven't tried it or even googled it - because it's impossible to do it unattended. A dialog pops up (and only when unlocked) asking you to confirm the reboot. It's probably because they were worried users might end up in a constant reboot/shutdown cycle, though presumably they could just implement a "if rebooted in the last hour by a script, don't allow it again" rule.


A second day!

I can't believe the full up and down owning of the communications supply chain.

Makes Hezbollah look like a clown show.


Now we don't yet know which radios exactly these are. But more likely then not, wouldn't these be from the exact same supply chain attack and maybe even come in the same shipment?


I'm looking at pictures on my MidEast Twitter TL, with legit reporters RT'ing them, of palm-sized slim ICOM radios.


According to Routers, they were bought at the same time as the pagers 5 months ago. So I would bet on it being the same supply chain operation that targeted both devices and maybe other devices that were bought at the same time.


I mean just from a pure opsec perspective, you'd think they'd have popped them open to look right?


Thousands of civilians injured... very few Hezbollah dead.

Makes Israel look like a terrorist organization, IMHO.


There has been no statement or indication that the thousands of people injured were comprised in any significant proportion of civilians. Given that these pagers-- reportedly 5000 of them-- were purchased by Hezbollah directly and videos of their explosions show a minimal blast radius it is premature and, depending on motives, propagandistic to claim that the thousands of people injured were civilians.


Israel's bombing of Gaza made them look like a terrorist organization. I believe the majority of deaths and a significant fraction of injured in this attack are in fact Hezbollah members.


You can't take Lebanon's report on who the injured were at face value. I've not doubt that innocent people were injured by this, but it's not _thousands_ of innocent people.


>Thousands of civilians

You have absolutely nothing on which to base the claim that these were civilians and not Hezbollah members.

I doubt you would have been happy either way, but I think your statements about the injuries is also unsubstantiated.


Why would civilians have in their possession tactical communication devices of a military organization?


Hezbollah like most other similar organisations is not a primarily military organisation even though they are a paramilitary one. The vast majority of the members of Hezbollah have non-military roles of various kinds.


Civilians are shown to be in proximity of these devices when they are exploding. It appears that these devices were all triggered simultaneously, rather than waiting for individual targets to be isolated.


One reason is that Hezbollah is not a purely military organization, and has political, medical and educational arms. Another is that some of the reported casualties are the family of Hezbollah members.


How can we enable the text reply with a function call? Usually the message returned is a tool call only when it calls a tool?


There's no special interface, but you can write an instruction in a system message in the first position. E.g., "Before each function call, explain to the user what you're about to do." It's not super reliable, but the model can do it. Few-shot prompting might help as well.


I live in Munich, totally agree.
