Incredible graphic. The bicep tattoo. The baby carriage. It’s perfect

Until I see a shred of evidence that airplane mode doesn’t disable the radios, yes, I’m going to trust the manufacturers, the EFF, and my background in EE

Source? EFF says airplane mode is sufficient per the article

Yeah, GPU acceleration is currently broken. Something something mlt issue. I’m looking forward to the fix but not holding my breath. I can survive on CPU til then, though

No, I’m cool. I do a good bit of nerdy/antisocial stuff but I’m actually a certified chiller

What exposure meters are they talking about? UV?

Most likely they packed one queen per tube, and then some of the queens had had workers spawn by the time these guys got busted

We’ve already done bosonic sampling that’s classically intractable. Google published it a few years ago. So yes, quantum supremacy has already been proven. It’s a useless toy problem, but one a classical computer just can’t do.

Yes, error correction will get harder the more we scale, but we’re pretty sure we’ve reached the point where we win by throwing more qubits at it. Again, now it’s engineering the scaling. No mean feat, it’ll take a long time, but it’s not like this is all speculation or fraud. The theory is sound

Re: quantum computing, we know quantum advantage is real both for certain classes of problems, e.g. theoretically using Grover’s, and experimentally for toy problems like bosonic sampling. It’s looking like we’re past the threshold where we can do error correction, so now it’s a question of scaling. I’ve never heard anyone discuss a limit on computation per volume as applying to QC. We’re down to engineering problems, not physics, same as your brain vs computer case.

What do you mean? The popular image is of the Somali militias using Soviet-designed weapons. AKs and such

I run jellyfin on my desktop rather than a dedicated HTPC. I’m sure it doesn’t matter, but I don’t want my computer to be doing jellyfin scheduled tasks when I’m doing something important. While if I’m watching something, my computer’s not going to be doing anything other than serving me the content, which seems like an ideal time to do housekeeping

Do something about it

And we invented the transistor!

You have 30 minutes to move your cube

Reattaching the connector is relatively easy. But unless the pcb itself is really mangled, a missing connector won’t affect the computer POSTing. Can you send a closeup of where the connector should be?

My recollection is that Columbus was also wrong about its size. He thought the distance from Europe to Asia via the Atlantic was much smaller than it really is, but got lucky and found the Americas on the way

without growth you can’t save

What? Why? If I’m making a million dollars profit a year, why can’t I just put it in a bank account or ETFs or whatever every year?

I’m very anti-DRM as well, but I’m willing to give Valve my money even if there’s a chance I lose my game down the line. Some of that money’s going towards Proton and making Linux more popular
