Metals are crystals ao why wouldn’t they grow hairs? Probably just stray electrons and alignment issues lining up. Crystals do things, what’s the big deal?
- Comment on This new SSD will literally self destruct if you push the big red button it comes with — Team Group posts video of data destruction in action 1 week ago:
Unless you have had three independent data recovery companies confirm the data can’t be recovered - I’m not buying it.
For the software erase it says:
Even if power is interrupted during the data wiping process, the drive will automatically resume clearing data the next time it gets power, says Team Group.
We aren’t sure of the wiping algorithm or tech, so we would assume there remains a chance of data recovery after this software-powered wipe, or partial wipe.
For the hardware erase, it says recovery might be more effort than it’s worth. So sounds like neither mode gets proven results.
It’s essentially a dangerous scam.
- Comment on The White House just took its most aggressive stance yet against Jerome Powell 1 week ago:
That would upset the status quo power relations which both parties serve…
…and yet Trump has been elected exactly because people are upset with the status quo power relations in politics.
So it’s a question of whether Trump and his team are true believers in upsetting the system, or whether they were doing it all for the pay day from the same groups/people who the political economy always serves.

Would have weighed a ton. Barely any plastic, solid wood through out. Electrical components that weren’t miniaturized yet.
Stuff was HEAVY back then. More than you’d think.

It’s four paragraphs dude.
- Comment on A metaphor for capitalism? 4 weeks ago:
Your problem is that you didn’t present just a critique of Socialism, you veered into praising Capitalism unnecessarily (which means a new system was introduced uncritically).
The metaphor for socialism would be that the one party controls the means of production, and that under true socialism there’d be a pile of dead spiders (heros and villains of the revolutionary period), and the web (which defines this epoch’s age of technology) would escape the glass.
Possibly the most educated spider from the party’s politburo would be able to step out of the glass… They would then climb into the next glass and try to foment a revolution there.
But all of the above is still dealing in an archiac propagandists ghost of 1950s Socialism (which wasn’t even like that to begin with)… And many parts of it are in fact a better critique of modern Capitalism with its industrial powerhouses forming monopolies and cartels interoperating with governments, and the culture industry to press people into further wealth disparity and corrupt democracy until it simulates a one party set of state Capitalist values.
