  • That's not entirely correct, they did use a fiber optic cable to transfer the data, as the more detailed article linked in another comment states. Quantum entanglement itself can't be used to transfer data; you still need to send the entangled particles through some physical means.

  • From what I understand, the significance is that you can transfer the states around while keeping them in a superposition. Thus you can continue to perform computations with them even after moving them to a physically separate quantum computer.

  • Making Win 11 even harder to install is a bold move from Microsoft. Most average users are content with using the OS that comes with their PC and upgrading it when necessary. But if the option is to either buy a new PC or fiddle with registry settings in hope that Win 11 will work, I think a lot more people will start looking at Linux instead.

  • My bad, that's what happens when you write a script in a minute. It turns out the latest LTS version is actually the second one listed, not the last. This one should actually fetch the latest version:

     
        
    curl $(curl https://ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads | grep -o "https.*desktop.*torrent" | sed "2q;d") -o ubuntu-latest.torrent
    
      
  • Why the hell would you ask an AI model to write the script for you? It's a one-liner, took me just a minute to write. Even if you know very little of Bash I can't imagine it would take more than a few minutes of research to figure it out.

     
        
    curl $(curl https://ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads | grep -o "https.*desktop.*torrent" | tail -1) -o ubuntu-latest.torrent
    
    
      

    AI is mediocre at best when it comes to writing code, and if you don't have the skill to troubleshoot its garbage outputs you shouldn't be using it at all.

  • This is needless fearmongering. Follow basic privacy practices and it'll take far more than a "mass surveillance" level of effort to track down your real identity from a social media profile. Also the amount of dislike for Trump and/or Musk is huge, so they'd have to go after like half the population.

    And with that said, Trump and Musk are pieces of shit and deserve to die.

  • It probably has to do with how many people here use Linux, and Steam's commitment to supporting Linux gaming. I myself have a fairly high opinion of them; they're not perfect, but they're better than the other big companies and I can actually play their games.
