They are already in use, even with manufactories in Spain.

That’s not a diamond transistor company. They are making diamond wafers to mount to traditional silicon. It’s a heatsink.

Here’s a good overview of the current state of the art in diamond transistor manufacturing.

I have a laptop with 48GB of VRAM

???

The AMD GPU in some Frameworks have 8GB of vram.

I specifically said states, not population / popular vote. Funny that you’d try to dismiss me as a Russian Troll for pointing out that Americans voted for a child molester.

I don’t understand the downvotes. Trump was elected by a majority of states. They wanted a child molester for President.

Ada answered the question, but consider your question.

You said “leaving a spaceship with no suit”. If your idea is that something left in space becomes dangerously radioactive then any space station or space ship would itself become dangerously radioactive.

So the answer is, no, things in space don’t become dangerously radioactive. Also things in contact with radioactive substances don’t themselves become radioactive except under extremely specific circumstances. Your house didn’t become dangerously radioactive because of the radioactive americium-241 in the smoke detectors.

How does that logic follow at all? I’m complaining about Trump’s violent Gestapo and you claim that I’ll soon support it more?

There is a gigantic difference between police getting a warrant, knocking on a door, and then bringing a person in for polite questioning versus masked goons breaking down doors and deporting without a trial.

This reorganization has had a demonstrable effect in how it is led.

The reorg meant LESS deportations. Significantly less if you factor Latin America population growth. It was only Trump that turned a regular bureaucracy into his Gestapo.

Changing the name from U.S. Customs Service and the Immigration and Naturalization Service to ICE isn’t any different. It was the same government workers doing the same work before and after the department merge and name change.

It was performative after Musk’s sieg heil crashed Tesla sales.

A term means something and applies somewhere.

Words are redefined all the time. Kilo should mean 1000. It was the international standard definition for 150 years. But now with computers it means 1024.

Confabulation would have been a better choice. But people have chosen hallucinate.

Hallucinate is the word that has been assigned to what you described. When you don’t assign additional emotional baggage to the word, hallucinate is a reasonable word to pick to decribe when an llm follows a chain of words that have internal correlation but no basis in external reality.

People don’t understand that Caillou wasn’t written for kids but for parents. Each episode is about Caillou behaving bad and then showing how an adult can redirect the bad behavior. It’s made extremely obvious in the books.

I never liked cd caddies. The push button, wait for motor to eject, then push button, wait for motor to load was dissociative.

The floppy drive was a direct mechanical link between the button and eject.

Windows Media center was an amazing money saver! I cancelled all my cable boxes, bought a server to run 8.1, bought some used xbox360’s for every TV in the house, and everything was paid for in 9 months compared to the cable company rental fees. So I not only got 3 xbox360s and a server for “free” but was saving money for the next 3 years until I cancelled cable completely.

Plus I had unlimited TV show storage and could transcode anything I wanted to keep permanently to mp4.

The network effect. It’s big enough that small forums get enough posts to stay active which keeps more people using it.

For example Lemmy has a 3d printer forum that has a few posts a week. Reddit has forums not just for 3d printing but for every specific model of printer and each gets a much activity as Lemmy’s generic forum.

If I’m searching for something, Google will show Reddit content but not Lemmy because there isn’t an answer on Lemmy.

People totally got killed by doing their own maintenance

People have totally gotten killed from maintenance done by a “professional” (new kid on the job at the shop.)

I watch YouTuber CarCareNut and he’s shown many stupid mistakes made by dealerships.

I assure you I take greater care doing repairs than a tech who will get yelled at if they don’t finish the job fast.

Gladiators were not soldiers. Some were the equivalent of American Wrestling stars.

Funny how what is a black market underground economy in Russia because of the danger is “market research data” legally sold in the US.

Shower thoughts.
