Today I Learned @lemmy.world

TIL Kowloon Walled City existed and is the real world origin for many visual representations of oppressive urbanization in cyberpunk media

  • I mean the man is directly responsible for blocking several Supreme Court justices from being appointed while Obama was president, which led to roe v wade being overturned so uh, Moscow Mitch couldn’t drop dead any faster in my opinion.

  • Am I on your blocklist? I’ve done some cross posting of my own content. Things have settled down now, but I know for awhile there it wasn’t really clear which communities were going to take off.

  • If I had a nickel for every post I’ve seen asking this question in the last 60 seconds, I’d have two nickels.

    Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice. Check out Voyager because it just got this feature today.

  • The last comma should have been a period. For some reason on that particular font the period showed up in the center of the line instead of at the bottom and it looked really weird.

    Edit: for what it’s worth, the original meme had a comma too for some reason

    Susan ate too many heinz beans

  • This was surprisingly interesting! Thanks for posting it. I didn't think there was anything noteworthy to glean from it, but @Contramuffin@lemmy.world mentioned down below that USB doesn't have interrupts, which I was unaware of. I especially liked how he covered different types of USB keyboards running at different speeds, and he briefly covered n-key rollover, or the lack thereof on the two keyboards he had on hand as well as why some key combinations fail due to shared wiring in the keyboard. The latency discussion between PS/2 interrupting and USB being polled for data at the end of the video was also fascinating.

    Edit: Ben Eater did a follow-up video on how n-key rollover works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lPzTU-3ONI

  • No worries! Usually the memes here aren’t so technical. I only got the joke because I was required to take a class on operating systems for my degree, and we covered interrupts.

  • I don't know if everyone here is just a galaxy brain or what, but I'm surprised nobody has asked or explained the joke. The red bird is a CPU running lines of assembly instructions and the crow is user input causing an interrupt to press the e key. This particular type of interrupt exists because it would feel really bad if you were typing, and the text didn't show up until several seconds later when the CPU felt like processing the (hopefully) buffered input.

    Quality meme op
