  • Elon musk surprised shareholders with this HOT investment trick.

  • I use Linux because of compiz fusion cube desktop. We are not the same.

  • It probably won't be profitable in rural areas to begin with.

  • I usually think TurboTax is tracking me and selling my data to Google and others.

  • That's exactly what Half Life 3 will be.

  • But not from a knowledge engine. It makes sense if some rando just spouted off a date from the top of their head but this is the former world leader in knowledge capture and search.

  • United States be like: 👨‍🦯

  • Fair enough! I definitely read this around the time 5g was coming around but apparently I was misinformed.

  • This is true but it's much easier to understand in retrospect unless you have a very very gifted math teacher (or series of teachers really) when you start learning it. For most people learning algebra it's just another checkbox to tick for some reason. Plus pesky word problems that make you figure out the equations on top of that.

    Now that I'm an adult I recognize what all of this was trying to teach me. But back in my school days it was just another thing I had to do between hanging out with friends.

  • IIRC, 5g is a much nicer generation for the carriers than for consumers. It can be more easily deployed with microcells on light poles vs requiring the tall cell towers. There's ultra-wideband, which is definitely faster, but plain 5g is roughly the same, just easier to roll out.

  • I microwaved my phone and the battery level hasn't gone down at all since.

  • LMAO we really have Lemmy cliques?

  • It'll probably be stored in something like a TPM, whose primary purpose is to make intact extraction of the keys difficult or impossible. A few keys might become compromised but in this scenario (unlike DRM decryption) it's easy to ignore those keys. There's always the chance an exploit becomes available and is more widely used, though, in which case it would definitely be less valuable.

  • If it disproportionately affected non-white or poor people.

  • These situations are almost always self-inflicted. If someone else hacked Google Cloud this badly then you'd likely have heard it from them first. And they probably would have done something significantly more destructive if their goal was harming Google reputation.

  • Unprecedented only means there's no precedent. This just hasn't happened before at this scale.
