  There are a stupidly surprising number of fascists in this town. I blame Governor Hot Wheels.

  I still see a lot of ‘em here in Austin.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are super-computers used for ?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll toss in my two cents.

  It’s mainly about handling and processing vast amounts of data. Many times more than you or I may deal with on a day to day basis. First, you have to have somewhere to put it all. Then, you’ve got to load whatever you’re working with into memory. So you need terabytes of RAM. When you’re dealing with that much data, you need beefy CPUs with crazy fast connections with a ton of bandwidth to move it all around at any kind of reasonable pace.

  Imagine opening a million chrome tabs, having all of them actively playing a video, and needing to make sense of the cacophony of sound. Only instead of sound, it’s all text, and you have to read all of it all at once to do anything meaningful with it.

  If you make a change to any of that data, how does it affect the output? What about a million changes? All that’s gotta be processed by those beefy CPUs or GPUs.

  Part of the reason AI data enters need so much memory is because they’ve got to load increasingly large amounts of training data all at once, and then somehow have it be able to be accessed by thousands of people all at once.

  But if you want to understand every permutation of whatever data you’re working with, it’s gonna take a ton of time to essentially sift through it all.

  And all that’s gotta be hardware? You have to make doubly sure that the results you get are accurate, so redundancies are built in. Extremely precise engineering of parts, how they’re assembled, and how they’re ultimately used is a lot of what makes supercomputers what they are. Special CPUs, RAM with error correction, redundant connections, backups… it all takes a lot of time, space, and money to operate.

  Shoot them dead like they’ve done to us.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I Can’t Sell You Laptops Anymore (video) (enshittification of computer repair)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Except the RAM that’s getting made for AI bullshit isn’t regular DDR5 sticks. It’s useless in a regular PC.

  And joysticks.

  No, assholes, you’re helping yourselves. You’re a company, you go where the money is. It’s never about helping the customer.

  As a Texan with no hope of ever being able to leave the country: please. I’m ready for it to be over.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a science educator who shows in a video how they hand wash dishes?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Soap. Start with the rough side of the sponge to get the big bits off, then the other side to finish it off. Dry with a clean towel.

  Or toss ‘em in the dishwasher.

  Only if you already have a ton of money, and it won’t be what you think.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨at what point in life it's too late to go back to school?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  As someone smack dab in the middle of that range, I’ve only in the last couple of years even figured out what I’d even go to school for.

  I mean, that’ll offset lights and idle appliances, at least. Or even a fairly beefy PC.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you objectively tell if a parents "I love you" is actually sincere, if they actually care about you? Or if the words are lies and they don't actually care?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Love is something you do, not something you feel.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When you wake up, how long does it take for your brain's "OS" to "resume from hibernation"?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It really depends on the quality and amount of sleep I’ve gotten. Lately it’s been pretty bad, so it takes me a bit to ‘wake up’ so to speak.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨me_irl_conflict⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Maff

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Has anyone here ever doubted if your parents were your "real" parents? Is it normal to have these weird thoughts?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, when I was younger. Parents then informed me I was adopted when I was three months old. Mom can’t have kids of her own. As an adult, I got a DNA test and ended up finding my biological mom and half-brother. I’m really glad I was adopted.

  Road laws exist to make driving predictable. Breaking those laws makes you unpredictable, and thus a danger. If you want to race, find a track.
