    • Scientists discover breakthrough light-matter hybrid

    Jump

  • Fuck yeah! Go science!

    • Steam keeps on winning

    Jump

  • Why would they have to open source anything? Just because it’s running on Linux doesn’t mean it’s OSS or even F(L)OSS. Steam isn’t open source either.

    • So, who or what ruined Christmas this year?

    Jump

  • Way of the road.

    • A great job description

    Jump

    • Why do you use the terminal?

    Jump

  • I built a split ergonomic keyboard with a trackball on it so I never have to leave.

    • Intel's comeback appears on track — CEO Gelsinger says 18A process node performance is 'a little bit ahead' of TSMC's N2, but Intel's process arrives a year earlier than TSMC's

  • Itanium

    Now there’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time.

    And the Xeon Phi (Knight’s Ferry/Landing) was in the GPU space, but only in GPGPU. The idea was that the Xeon Phi, with an x86-compatible core, could, with less modification, run software that was originally targeted to a standard x86 CPU. Something like 68-70 x86-64 cores.

    I had a couple of them when I was taking parallel programming back in the day. Nifty little devices, but largely outshined by distributed multiprocessing for x86-64 and paled in comparison to the power of CUDA. That might be my own bias talking though.

    • Apple wants AI to run directly on its hardware instead of in the cloud

  • silicone

    It’s silicon. Silicon is a naturally occurring chemical element, whereas silicone is a synthetic substance.

    Silicon is for computer chips, silicone is for boobies.

    • Canada to announce all new cars must be zero emissions by 2035

    Jump

  • Great, it’s better if you link them where the claims were made though.

    I hadn’t heard of earth.org so I looked them up: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/earth-org-bias/

    Not too bad. Though I’m well versed in battery tech and industry, it’s an incredibly dirty industry, coming with cited, fair sources is paramount.

    • Canada to announce all new cars must be zero emissions by 2035

    Jump

  • No, you claimed:

    Production of batteries, handling discarded batteries, breaking of minerals FOR the batteries, and producing the electricity have all been shown to be worse for the environment than than the entire life of a traditional car

    Furthermore, when asked about a source for these claims, you come out swinging with the ever popular “no, you” defense.

    Again, link your sources (MIT study) please.

  • Oh, so with that logic you believe the Democratic Republic of North Korea is a democratic republic.

    I guess you’ve also never heard of the English idiom “don’t judge a book by its cover”.

    • China has another massive headache now: It can’t stem deflation

  • People also need things now, not later.

    • China has another massive headache now: It can’t stem deflation

    Jump

  • sigh

    While I agree with your strategy, I also have enough awareness that this strategy doesn’t work for everyone.

    If someone needs a bed to sleep, but they only have enough for a cheap bed, they buy the cheap bed and hope that when it wears out they can buy a better, higher quality one. They don’t forgo a bed and have worse health, they get what they can to get by.

    Go tell the single mother of four that she bought a garbage table so her kids have a place to eat and she should’ve bought the quality table that costs two months of her rent, because it lasts longer.

    • China has another massive headache now: It can’t stem deflation

    Jump

  • Yes, in the end they spend more, but in the present, that’s what their circumstances can afford them.

    Not everyone has the luxury to spend thousands on furniture at one time like you do apparently.

    • tube tester

    Jump

  • I actually have a similar model for testing audio tubes. I have several 100 watt amplifier heads for my guitars and a few more home built amps for both guitar and listening audio. I even have several tube preamps I’ve designed with one or two tubes.

    Such a cool era of technology to me.

    • White House threatens to veto anti-EV bill just passed by US House

    Jump

  • Coincidentally, in addition to having a BS in EE and an MS in CompE, I was a senior engineer working on battery control systems for three seasons with a Formula E team in my previous job.

    At no point did I ever even hint to being an engineer, my man

    and

    If you aren't an engineer working with ev batteries or othe rechargeablebatteries, your opinion has no weight.

    You’re right, I’m not stupid which is precisely why I haven’t “chimed in” on your unqualified opinions.

    • President Biden Announces Billions to Deliver World-Class High-Speed Rail and Launch New Passenger Rail Corridors Across the Country

    Jump

  • I was sarcastically quoting that comment, but I think using a red herring severely weakens their statement and is quite childish.

  • Imagine being so immature you can’t mention someone without calling them a petty name, even when they do something good.
