Look man Ive spent many years tryna understand this shit and in fact nobody does. Event horizons aren’t really even a fixed place, and you could pass one without realizing if the BH is big enough. Then there’s time dialation. Speed of light is relative to the observer

My rec is to expect no answers but if you find it fascinating, then spend the next year watching PBS Spacetime on Youtube and stay rock hard, nerd metaphorically speaking

Man wears largest sunglasses, thinks you may want to crush your ears for 2100 also

Already happened with Cerebras and they landed at a stable 2x of the open. SpaceX is probably going to be next & set the real standard

oh no they only have 3.5 billion users how will meta ever survive, their ability to take on debt must mean they are seen as unable to pay debts

What I’m saying is that’s actually very hard unless you run a super sterile account on purpose. Even just your writing style is a pretty good fingerprint. Your IP. Any pictures you’ve posted. It’s a rough world out there for privacy

It’s not that hard to identify people online. My account is definitely not private

It’s occasionally worth calling out that votes are also public. I think twice before hitting those buttons

Windows now Chromebooks?

Tesla sunset two of their models, three still for sale and being built. Definitely not giving up on AI or FSD, they are doubling down on cybercab, and elons pay package is tied to FSD subscriptions. If anything, the messaging is they are ramping up AI investment. Humans crash and burn regularly too. Brilliant engineers have definitely not given up, I’m not sure why anyone would think that. AI has continued to improve pretty steadily in all areas (see benchmarks)

I unironically want this to make wizard scrolls

Uhh idk about this article, it meanders randomly around various failings of the president (sure) but building a big room in 3 years with a ton of money available seems totally doable

Might as well just run Linux at that point and if you want android apps, waydroid. The value prop of Chromebooks was supposed to be that you can just factory reset it at any point and log back in

And so the gap between the classes widens again. 1.2m in interest on a 420k asset, paid over your entire adult life. Imagine being stuck paying >2000$/month for life to a bank, BUT with the additional costs of maintenance & probably an HOA & rising property taxes. At that point, renting is the only option, but the prices of that will rise too. So GG capitalism, it’s time to tape leaves to a tent and live in the middle of a roundabout with your 4 cats and a handgun

The mind while lucid dreaming is creating a whole environment, which for some people has incredible level of detail. Your “consciousness” is experiencing a whole video game or whatever, which must be simulated to be percieved. Imagine you had some kind of really advanced VR setup and body suit that could touch your senses very richly - something must be feeding that perception, a simulation

People who are lucid dreaming simulate a full reality that’s nearly indistinguishable from the one they find themselves in during waking time. If your brain can’t tell the difference during this time, how can you be sure you’re not dreaming right now reading this?

The scope of what a simulation is has always been limited by the technology we know. It is only a failing of imagination and knowledge to assume that algorithmic computation is the only valid form of simulation in the future, these have existed for barely 100 years, but even Plato’s cave was talking about the larger philosophical problem

This is such a boring take, I wonder how anyone gets funding or publication making a statement as useless as “see godels incompleteness theorem that proves that there’s more truth than what mathematics can prove, therefore reality is not a simulation”. Yes, we know, you don’t need a PhD to know the major theorem that took down the entire school of logical positivism. The fundamental philosophical error here is assuming that all forms of simulation are computational or mathematical. Counterexample: your dreams are a form of simulation (probably). So I can literally disprove this take in my sleep

Well the old clients are backward compatible, but you should check if your client can use new features. But mostly it’s that you have to be on a server that supports it

I assessed Matrix a few years ago and came to the same conclusion. I went with IRC3 which is a new standard that overcomes most of IRC’s issues. I think IRC is still quite good, and actually has working clients for everything, web etc

Seems to be 100% Lemmy content

shows crt with speakers and buttons

Now THIS was design

Idk I kinda like modern minimal / flexible, assuming it works. It’s often easier to customize something in an app than with a bunch of dials. Stuff like hue has shown it possible to make physical buttons to control smart devices, if you want them

Meanwhile he glosses over the fact that Samsung has all the foldables now, and that’s a pretty extreme industrial design in the modern era
