Trick question. Time dilation means nothing ever actually enters a black hole. It just keeps getting infinitesimally close.

The proper way to eat salad is with chopsticks. Ever tried to pick up a flat piece of lettuce with a fork? A chopped carrot? A crispy crouton??

As others have said, LLMs simply do not have such a potential.
On the other hand, we have fully mapped simple brains, so it seems likely that we may be able to simulate a complete human brain at some point in the distant future. You can download a nematode brain yourself if you want.

It’s called hydrogen hydroxide and is the single deadliest chemical on Earth. Inhalation results in over 100,000 deaths annually, and it causes hundreds of billions of dollars in damage around the world.

Wait, not resent. Resemble.

Clearly AI - in reality, it would require 100s of pounds of force to remove a finger like this.

It really depends. I’d suspect if it cannot play a video, then it wouldn’t be able to serve it either. People are doing a lot more than this on Raspberry Pis.

For me, the best place to start was with services that replace cloud products. Setting up Immich for photo storage, Jellyfin for movies and shows, or navidrome for music.

- Comment on Cultural impact 4 weeks ago:
I don’t want to undersell the design or technical achievements of the films. They are truly beautiful and it’s clear where the budget went. Other than being pretty to look at and inspiring a Disney Park, what is the cultural impact?
For contrast, Kevin Smith made a movie for the cost of a car that people still quote 30 years later.
- Comment on Cultural impact 4 weeks ago:
I was thinking about this the other day - I saw the movie and I know what a Navi is, but I can’t recall a single memorable quote or name a character. There is no memorable SNL sketch except the one masking fun of the Papyrus font. There is no fandom, there is nothing

Apparently after this he also hit some locals on their fists with his face. I hope the seal and their fists are okay.
- Comment on If something could rotate infinitely after being initially pushed, would the initial push disqualify it from being classed as perpetual motion? 5 weeks ago:
I’m not a scientist so I don’t claim to understand it or explain it.
- Comment on If something could rotate infinitely after being initially pushed, would the initial push disqualify it from being classed as perpetual motion? 5 weeks ago:
Yes, although quantum effects also slow spinning celestial objects/systems, even in the absence of measurable tidal effects. That would take much, much longer to slow down.
- Comment on Are stepkids of super wealthy people kind of rich by extension? 5 weeks ago:
I know of a wealthy family who own a mid-sized company and referred to a second wife of one brother as a “newcomer” for close to 20 years. They did everything in their power to minimize the wealth she and her kids got when he tragically died.
They were still pretty well-off, but not super wealthy. There can be really complicated dynamics around family money, so it could go either way.
- Comment on If something could rotate infinitely after being initially pushed, would the initial push disqualify it from being classed as perpetual motion? 5 weeks ago:
No, if something rotated infinitely, that still violates thermodynamics and is “perpetual motion.”
This of course is impossible. Even the Earth slows down by about 2 ms per century due to tidal forces.

- Comment on Is the "everyday stuff" supposed to feel normal? Do y'all just have a parent do things then when you're supposed to be the adult you panic? 1 month ago:
Yeah, adulting is hard. But then you do it and you realize that you can do hard things. That feels pretty good.
Or you make a mistake and learn an important lesson; an expert is just someone who has made every possible mistake in an area.
Then eventually hard things stop feeling so scary.
