The problem with LEO constellation is wasted airtime outside of the country that owns it. Starlink just let anyone pay for the service irrespective of legality and let the leftovers go to waste, but most sane people can't accept that m

This reads more like geohot finally hit the point where he can't stand comments more so than it has to do with what is in the text. Idiots and trolls in the audience put real mental toll on streamers - facing and tackling mean comments

If you can't make yourself sound adequately smart, it could lead to people ignoring you, and/or acting in spite of your opinions/logic, and/or spending extra effort trying to decipher you. That is not an optimal situatio

Wait, this is with a digital twin only? Not fMRI or webcam based?

Was that actually benchmarked and compared, or was that some British activist group insisting? I thought it was just the latter. There is/was the official bot on Twitter that you can tag with a prompt, like "@grok put this spacesu

I don't remember online discourses on filter avoidance for Grok to be any different from typical ones, except that it allegedly have tendency to take porn-biased interpretations of prompts, I think the "uncensored" pitch they

How does it compare to Chinese APIs? It doesn't seem like xAI is meaningfully more competent or any single bit more honest than Chinese labs anyway, so you might as well send tasks straight to China unless theirs is substantially cheap

Both Hayabusa 1 and 2 did sample returns, this flyby is an afterlife extra.

Presumably you can do a snare drum shape with antennas arranged like tension rods, for whatever reason they do articulating antennas. As for why it needs multiple antennas, it's for MIMO and beam forming.

Frankly, I think it is about time Latin languages should get predictive typing assist on desktop. It's probably within possibility for Mythos/Fable class LLMs to one-shot it out of a tweet-length description and full code access f

I think this is about semiconductor design and/or die packaging related difficulties/costs. idk exactly why, but "pin count" in this exact expression is not rare at all on chip marketing materials.

They use special "upper" and "lower" layer keys to switch between mappings. There's a whole open source ecosystem around a project called QMK firmware, and convergent common keymaps for keyboards that use it. 1: ht

The classic full US keyboard with numpad nominally has 101 keys, HHKB style compact boards usually 60 or so. The bare minimum with all numbers and Fn keys may have as little as 40 keys. Hence: 100%: full w/keypad, 80%: the mai

I had thought about a post-apocalyptic prepper printer once, my conclusion was that you can just have a fax machine and a laptop. They're considered thoroughly obsolete, and almost free to take in used markets as well.

I think an oft-forgotten possible major driver for the moves away from discs[1] must be scary legal warnings universally seen in paid contents during 2010s. None of currently popular platforms have those stern unrelatable messages that cust

I think the effect of Twitch/YouTube can't be ignored. PC games are easier content source for streamers, and PC remains better platform for viewers for watching streams. Consoles are still quite focused on single task content cons

In an ideal world, defamation should not be illegal through invasion of specifically privacy. Because that shields perpetrators from clean-room defamations, which is wrong. I guess I live in such an ideal world? Defamation don't requir

Looks like target market of this type of duplicators is hospitals using it for exchanging medical images, where optical discs are still very common as disposable storage medium. I'm sure they don't print hundreds of identical ches

Or maybe just Europe is not as democratic as it seems, still relying on an upper class groups to make decisions based on principles than data.

It seems that the original plan was to create the first game console with an operating system, something happened at some point and the ROM only contains a BIOS, just like a PC. Maybe it was cost issue or maybe devs demanded bare metal or m

I think another reason this hasn't happened is sheer complexity of the modern software stack. No one fully understand how everything works, in principle or in details. You can't certify someone or establish principles for things n

...no? It does both. Load fresh discs from magazine, put onto an internal disc drive, let a connected PC burn it, take out, print on it, and move it to a burned disc holder. All in one box. The networked model does it over LAN like a laser

Probably the first factory you walk into? That one would become the prime contractor that manage suppliers and subcontractors - I think those are the terms they use in multimillion aerospace and defense programs, but I believe the concepts
