It's not really different from the parallel realities interpretation. The dead and alive cats exist in separate, parallel universes, each totally unaware of the existence of any other universe than its own, and when the experimenter op

Agreed, but most of the essays I read are precisely made of this kind of contents, so I would have hoped some updated books. Just like most of the best-seller essays use this type of contents, just read any book from the regretted Stephen H

There are mountains in Antarctica, ice-free spots that can be the location of vaults. The point of "ice not melting" is not to use ice, but to show you that the land will keep cool even in summer.

The odds of the Arctic becoming ice-free, including continental ice, are really disturbing. See the reports on the probable collapse of the Greenland ice. Whereas there are no such concern in Antarctica, only its ice shelves are threatened.

They should put vaults in Antarctica though. Much safer, and the mainland Antarctica will not likely melt.

Seems very low expressed like that, but actually it isn't because when you take your car you typically drive tens of kilometers.

No, these leaks are of serious concern. This was one of the reasons behind the recent scandal where "blue hydrogen" had been found to be very dirty.

The big progress to watch is rather the new process to catalyse CO2 hydrates formation from CO2 at sea floor conditions [1]. What we really need is capture and store CO2, not capture and release again... [1] https://phys.org&#x2F

I'd really love a version of the Framework with buffed up graphic cards, such as a RTX or equiv. That would place them above System76 in my ranking, and it is the only criterion stopping my hand to purchase one right now...

What I find interesting is that these sterile neutrinos do not "badly broke" the Standard Model, instead they come as a complement and obey all the other principles otherwise held for particle physics (symmetry groups, isospins, e

There are some capacitive physical keyboards to put on the screen of some Samsung models. Unfortunately it seems that the corresponding firmware or apps only exist for the Korean versions of the customized Android. That's too bad, beca

It's because it's not about India, it's about the Nipah virus. Viruses don't know borders. Block humans and they'll pass through the animal route. Also, the Nipah virus is extremely contagious, like the covid.

I hope this will, through rivalry with Apple, push Google to up the maximum quality of their audio streams on Youtube Music. There was a significant decrease of quality since they migrated from Google Play Music (the difference can be heard

I know other horribly screeching trains, e.g. the Paris metro. May it be for the same reason? If so, then the fix seems straightforward.

Yes but in this case it's to sell it not to rent it. I can (almost) understand that you don't want foreigners in the apartment that you own, but in this case they don't even want to receive money -- the same amount -- from fo

Some estate agencies, who don't want to sell estate to a foreigner but would not openly say it, just let some other Japanese customer (who appeared suddenly) take the precedence and buy instead of you. Source: unfortunately I can relat

What monopoly? I use FDroid without any problems thank you very much. Now if Google has a program to make happy its customers so that they don't leave... I wish all companies strategies were like that!

Maybe a stupid question, but why the Samsung connect box if the Jetson already has a HDMI output?

I would not lightly send ultrasounds to the brain, especially the prefrontal cortex... The magnetic method seemed much safer.

I have written a small wrapper in bash for lilypond, just to get the same result, a command-line REPL, that compiles and plays instantly. But in lilypond instead of Alda.

I'm on Linux (Arch) and I had no more luck with PS than with PDF... My printer is a Brother HL-2270DW... seems to be quite a dumb one...

I immediately tried it... Aaand this is how I made my printer spit out dozens of garbage pages with just one to two lines of gibberish on each (the PDF source code, admirably giving up the page at each occurrence of the corresponding char).

You misunderstand. What I honestly don't know is if there exist useful algorithms making usage of all these hashes produced by BTC-mining machines. It's a very precise challenge. And it could change the face of the industry. I&#x2
