You can increase the refresh rate until it goes away. I don't think anyone notices flicker at 80Hz or so.

Resolutions were very high for the time, I have a 2002 LG f900p (pretty high end, yes but it wasn't super expensive even back in the day) running at 1920*1200@85hz and it's a delight to work and play on it. IMO, the only factor th

Consumers at large don't like them. In the same desk or table you have a crt monitor or tv, you can have a muuuuch bigger flat screen with higher resolution that weighs a tenth as much.

I like how back in 2023 we had "no AI scientist believes this to be intelligence" and in 2026 we have cults in Anthropic praying to the LLM.

I can't short onion futures? Why? Buying the nov. Contract and selling the dec. Would net a >100% return on a month (minus the freezing cost of the onions)

I can't wait until someone tries to corner the market, holds a shitton of future onions, the onions go bad and the market implodes showing that future contracts on perishable items is generally a bad idea.

It's a nice fresh take. I like how naturally it comes that there's no singularity inside a black hole as there's no matter that can go through the event horizon in a finite time.

Still from a far away observer. As matter gets close to the event horizon, its local clock as viewed from far away slows down to the point of freezing completely when it reaches the horizon (this you won't see from outside). As this ha

I like the alternative even less, as it incentivises spending more than you would and taking on debt you don't really need.

For a small lab where you have a moderate volume of oneoffs it's worth the investment. But, yeah, I wouldn't have that setup at home.

For a 2-layer pcb I would either go chemical etching or a small routing cnc. Chemical etching kits , uv lamps and blank pcbs are not "too" expensive, but it's more of a professional setup than a hobbyist. Just think of all th

Where else?

by PowerElectronix 2mo ago
Yeah, we're still very far from a machine routing PCBs. Nice project, though, looks pretty fun to do it with an AI.

The CCP trying to get fertility rates up by cracking down on lesbians, paying money for children and now cracking down on whatever this is. It's no use, though. You need a good economic and social outlook to get people to even consider

The paper trails leads back to the datacenter, they'd shut it down if they get noticed that a customer is paying with stolen money. Unless you suggest the LLM will also launder the money.

It's usually becaise they have lower metabolism so their cells don't suffer as much damage as ours, and they probably have a lot of copies of genes that prevent cancer.

Imagine being a developer of the torment nexus only to be beaten to the IPO by the rival torment nexus company.

People working for those companies have either drank the koolaid or have equity enough to play along until they can cash out. I imagine saying you're developing skynet is better than saying you are developing a very cool, extremely exp

The owners would very much turn it off as soon as they see workloads freeloading in their machines. Unless you suggest the LLM would foot the bill somehow.

> "I would burn my stake to the ground if it meant 1% higher chance of not dying to an LLM" I seriously can't wait for these companies to go IPO and then bankrupt so these dudes cash out and stop bothering us all with thes

They are extremely intelligent for a mollusk(like, these folks are family with slugs and clamshells), but they are not that intelligent if you compare them to a pig or a dog. Their main brain is after all very small(although huuuge for a mo

Yeah, ammonia can also be used, it's, IIRC, more efficient to use it and a bit safer because you don't high pressure, buuut enough ammonia in the air will suffocate you. It's lighter than air so it will go away by itself if a
