It’s like you start a game and within a blink of an eye, 5 hours have passed.
Great game
- Comment on Ubisoft comes crawlin' back to Steam 1 month ago:
Especially painful on steam deck. If you get it working, it adds a good minute to the launch time

It’s a shame that all of the bee’s food reserves are sold

100%
- Comment on OpenAI’s latest model will block the ‘ignore all previous instructions’ loophole 3 months ago:
It’s really useful for programming. It’s not always right but it has good approaches and you can ask it to write tedious parts of your code like long switch statements. Most of my programming problems were solved because I just explained the problem like Rubber Duck Debugging.
- Comment on Why are quantum computers these gorgeous golden chandelier 4 months ago:
Just wanted to mention at this point that the quantum computers in this post are the so-called superconducting quantum computers. There are also other architectures like ion and neutral atom quantum computers which are basically steel tubes with viewports that contain a ultra high vacuum. Lasers are used to control the ions or atoms.
There’s also photon quantum computers, but they are even more different and not in a really advanced stage yet.
- Comment on I don't get how people can become depressed, when we live in the century of Fentanyl, easy access to alcohol and amusement arcades. 4 months ago:
Yeah I’ve been on bupropion for about 1.5 years. Had an increased heart rate in the beginning as well so we started at a very low dosis, then went up step by step. However the side effects vanished after 2 months. I don’t feel hyper active, I just don’t feel super low anymore. It doesn’t make the depression go away but it allows me to work on it, because otherwise I couldn’t even get out of bed

There are amphetamine antidepressants. You can ask your doctor about it (e.g. bupropion, which is not addictive).
- Comment on ‘It’s the perfect place’: London Underground hosts tests for ‘quantum compass’ that could replace GPS 5 months ago:
You got it pretty much on point. Shooting a laser at atoms is like shooting a machine gun at an indestructible target. If it moves towards you, you can slow it down. But preventing it from accelerating when the target is stationary is where quantum mechanics comes in. That is your explanation: The laser light only acts as a force when the light is resonant with the atom and the Doppler effect means that the resonance condition changes depending on the speed of the atoms.

Because everyone can spin up their own irc server. It’s not federated though.
