From my understanding the distinction is whether or not personal data is being saved, so as long as iOS isn't saving/classifying specific 'faces' it's not illegal.
As far as I can tell the video only provides evidence of one person with ties to "Insurgence USA" (a left wing group) being inside the capital during the protest. No evidence for 'antifa' and no evidence that there was any organized left-wing presence.
It's true that you can't pause a stream on Twitch, but Twitch allows you to save clips that are functionally equivalent to rewinding, which isn't available on YouTube. Twitch's UX&I is also much better suited to streaming than YouTube (bigger chat, multiple viewing sizes/configurations, no video suggestions).
I could go through the awkward process of making a clip every time I miss something and want to rewind a few seconds, but once I do that now I've missed even more of the broadcast and there's no way to catch up. Twitch only works comfortably for completely live viewing, watching finished VODs, or watching ongoing VODS with half an hour delay minimum.
Clips are a neat feature but they're a sharing feature, not a "help me watch" feature.
Hurley is going to be the "Spacecraft Commander" as mentioned in the article. The parent comment also indicates that they will be bringing the flag/memorial/token back. I'm not sure what "large implicit assumptions" you are referring too.
He means that flight or its currently designated commander may not make it to the ISS for various reasons.
I don't think those are "large" assumptions, they're pretty standard things that can go wrong with every flight. Not that useful to have to enumerate them every time anyone talks about spaceflight.
- mission not being scrubbed for a variety of possible reasons
- mission commander not being changed
- rocket not blowing up on the pad
- rocket reaching correct orbit
- mission not being completed, for instance docking issues
- everything that could possibly go wrong on the return flight
Really, the ease with which everybody seems to assume that this will go off without a hitch is impressive, this is not exactly walking to the corner store to pick up a small parcel.
Friend: I'm going to grab more drinks from the store
You: There are several very large assumptions implicit in that sentence
Friend: ?
You: Your car can break down, you can get in an accident on the way there, the store can be robbed and you can get shot, you may get a call about your parents dying on the way, a meteor may strike and kills us all...
Why do you assume people assumed that? I mean, these are things that apply to every human spaceflight on any rocket in any country.
Imagine if anytime anyone spoke about spaceflight, they saw fit to include a giant disclaimer of everything that could go wrong. We'd all just end up sounding like drug commercials.
Graphics drivers contain competitive optimizations that make a significant difference in the performance of the hardware. Since these optimizations are both costly (in R&D) and allow for the vendors GPU to perform better than a competitors, they do not share these optimizations (that a competitor may or may not use to improve their own driver). And since people pay ultimately for performance, not hardware, the driver is just as important as the silicon.
Your second point is correct, that open source drivers do get better support. AMD has better support on Linux than NVIDIA because it has an officially supported open source driver (AMDGPU). However, the support they receive from open-sourcing the drivers is not always the R&D required to gain a competitive performance advantage, limiting the competitiveness of an open source driver (at least compared to proprietary).
