  Texas did the same shit not long ago. VPN usage went through the roof, as expected.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are super-computers used for ?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll toss in my two cents.

  It’s mainly about handling and processing vast amounts of data. Many times more than you or I may deal with on a day to day basis. First, you have to have somewhere to put it all. Then, you’ve got to load whatever you’re working with into memory. So you need terabytes of RAM. When you’re dealing with that much data, you need beefy CPUs with crazy fast connections with a ton of bandwidth to move it all around at any kind of reasonable pace.

  Imagine opening a million chrome tabs, having all of them actively playing a video, and needing to make sense of the cacophony of sound. Only instead of sound, it’s all text, and you have to read all of it all at once to do anything meaningful with it.

  If you make a change to any of that data, how does it affect the output? What about a million changes? All that’s gotta be processed by those beefy CPUs or GPUs.

  Part of the reason AI data enters need so much memory is because they’ve got to load increasingly large amounts of training data all at once, and then somehow have it be able to be accessed by thousands of people all at once.

  But if you want to understand every permutation of whatever data you’re working with, it’s gonna take a ton of time to essentially sift through it all.

  And all that’s gotta be hardware? You have to make doubly sure that the results you get are accurate, so redundancies are built in. Extremely precise engineering of parts, how they’re assembled, and how they’re ultimately used is a lot of what makes supercomputers what they are. Special CPUs, RAM with error correction, redundant connections, backups… it all takes a lot of time, space, and money to operate.

  I am #6.

  You have money. Go to school for something interesting. Find a passion.

  Shoot them dead like they’ve done to us.

  Add one more from me. Tossed SteamOS onto my Legion Go over the weekend and good God is it better at running literally every game better than Windows.

  And I think you should go fuck yourself, Nazi.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨SteamOS seduces another handheld as a new Lenovo Legion Go 2 readies for June⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I fully plan on installing it to my original Legion Go this weekend when I have some free time. Windows is just too much of a drain on the hardware.

  As a Texan with no hope of ever being able to leave the country: please. I’m ready for it to be over.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a science educator who shows in a video how they hand wash dishes?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Soap. Start with the rough side of the sponge to get the big bits off, then the other side to finish it off. Dry with a clean towel.

  Or toss ‘em in the dishwasher.

  The Celestial plane, obviously.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a real, actually working way to earn money online without having a job?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Only if you already have a ton of money, and it won’t be what you think.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨at what point in life it's too late to go back to school?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  As someone smack dab in the middle of that range, I’ve only in the last couple of years even figured out what I’d even go to school for.

  That was my first thought. Ignorance is bliss.

  Open it up and desolder the networking chip. It's the only way to be sure. Hope you've got a heat gun!

  Just go to the grocery store and buy some?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DRAM prices are spiking, but I don't trust the industry's reasons why⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That's just how electronics recycling is, though. The amount of labor it would take to save all those SMT and BGA components is ridiculous and, honestly, is a pretty specialized skill even if it is easy to learn. The logistics of scale really makes it unreasonable, especially when simpler components can be had for literal pennies. There's a point where the material cost of the copper is worth more than the labor it takes to do anything else with the board, and it happens a lot sooner than you think.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenAI Is Having a Mental Health Crisis⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Having, had, what's the difference?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Jmail’ is like any other inbox, except this one has Jeffrey Epstein’s emails⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  People shock me every day. On one hand, it's impressive that they have the skills or knowhow to be in the positions they are... and then you find out they believe the Earth is flat or they can't spell or understand grammar to save their lives. It's truly baffling at times.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you objectively tell if a parents "I love you" is actually sincere, if they actually care about you? Or if the words are lies and they don't actually care?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Love is something you do, not something you feel.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When you wake up, how long does it take for your brain's "OS" to "resume from hibernation"?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It really depends on the quality and amount of sleep I’ve gotten. Lately it’s been pretty bad, so it takes me a bit to ‘wake up’ so to speak.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta is earning a fortune on a deluge of fraudulent ads, documents show⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I use Facebook (I know) daily and I go out of my way to hide and/or report every ad I see. The vast majority are displayed alongside Reels (which is its own problem) but a few are just… regular reels, masquerading as ads. It’s incredibly frustrating. I don’t expect anything to be done, similar to my reporting hate speech against gay and trans folks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Has anyone here ever doubted if your parents were your "real" parents? Is it normal to have these weird thoughts?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, when I was younger. Parents then informed me I was adopted when I was three months old. Mom can’t have kids of her own. As an adult, I got a DNA test and ended up finding my biological mom and half-brother. I’m really glad I was adopted.

  And of course it’s never to adjust their policies so that every employee feels better and does better, it’s just to find out how to bitch at literally everyone for being human.
