- Comment on An Alarming Number of Gen Z Ai Users Think It's Conscious 1 day ago:
Young people are always ignorant, relatively. They haven’t been around long enough to learn much, after all. However, the quality of education has been empirically declining over many decades, and mobile devices are extemely efficient accelerants of brain rot.
- Comment on Windows 10 LTSC – the version that won't expire for years 1 day ago:
CIFS or NFS?
- Comment on China scientists develop flash memory 10,000× faster than current tech 4 days ago:
You rely on professional fabrications of misinformation to tell you the truth about who is producing misinformation? Don’t fall for crude propaganda. When empires end they do some self-destructive things. It’s normal.
- Comment on China has world’s first operational thorium nuclear reactor thanks to ‘strategic stamina’ 4 days ago:
The new generation of Russian fast neutron reactors use lead and lead-bismuth as coolant, not sodium anymore. They are not proper breeders, as I understood it.
- Comment on China has world’s first operational thorium nuclear reactor thanks to ‘strategic stamina’ 4 days ago:
Thorium fuel cycle is useful for weapon production. Germany also abandoned thorium despite no interest in weapon production.
- Comment on China has world’s first operational thorium nuclear reactor thanks to ‘strategic stamina’ 5 days ago:
Some of the new Russian reactor types are designed to burn away dangerous hot actinides. MSR need onboard fuel processing to continue to operate anyway.
- Comment on China has world’s first operational thorium nuclear reactor thanks to ‘strategic stamina’ 6 days ago:
Too bad we do not know which exactly thorium salt mixes they are using, what the materials facing the molten salt at high neutron fluxes are and how they fare long term, whether they use on-site constant or batched fuel reprocessing, whether they kickstarted the reactor with enrichened uranium or reactor-grade plutonium waste and other such questions.
US experiments were broken off because of materials corrosion problem.
- Comment on finally got static IP from a new ISP 6 days ago:
IPv6 is really widespread.
- Comment on Dear Big Tech, Stop Shoving AI Into Operating Systems 1 week ago:
Heh.
Another good reason to stick with Debian though.
- Comment on Dear Big Tech, Stop Shoving AI Into Operating Systems 1 week ago:
Linux kernel? Where?
Assuming you mean distro, where is it in Debian?
If I want AI I can always install llama or similar locally.
- Comment on Germany to create ‘super–high-tech ministry’ for research, technology, and aerospace 1 week ago:
LOL
- Comment on Celebrate 50 years of Microsoft with the company's original source code | Bill Gates 1 week ago:
It’s just the first page of the printout, and a 94 MB PDF.
- Comment on China plans world’s first fusion-fission power plant 2 weeks ago:
No, we do this in a fusion weapon. Half of its energy output is from fast neutron fission of the uranium tamper.
- Comment on China plans world’s first fusion-fission power plant 2 weeks ago:
Yes, the uranium tamper in a fusion weapon. Half of the energy in a fusion weapon comes from fast neutron fission, mostly in U-238. It’s not a chain reaction.
- Comment on OpenWrt Two will be a higher-performance router with 10 Gigabit LAN and WiFi 7 support - Liliputing 3 weeks ago:
Router-on-a-stick would work, but I’d like a 10G SFTP for that.
- Comment on Dad demands OpenAI delete ChatGPT’s false claim that he murdered his kids 4 weeks ago:
Confabulation is a more appropriate term.
- Comment on Global VR headset shipments fell 12% YoY in 2024, with Meta's market share rising to 84%; Vision Pro shipments fell 43% QoQ in Q4, but its enterprise sales grew. 5 weeks ago:
And it’s all proprietary walled garden. I have no interest in VR if it’s not free/libre.
- Comment on Reddit will warn users who repeatedly upvote banned content 1 month ago:
Yes, Lemmyverse will fragment, so it’s important to choose sufficiently permissive instances or even run your own.
- Comment on In 2025, People Will Try Living in This Underwater Habitat 3 months ago:
A friend of mine has just broken the record of 100 days living under water. He is aiming for 120 days.
- Comment on German Power Slips Below Zero as Negative-Price Phenomenon Grows 3 months ago:
Only if Germany changes existing legislation on power taxation. And do check out for how much a TWh of grid scale storage goes for. Hydrogen is the only borderline cost effective solution at the scale required.
- Comment on LG discontinues all UHD Blu-ray and Blu-ray players 4 months ago:
Commenting as a reminder to revisit.
- Comment on AI-Generated Fake War Images Passed Off as Real 4 months ago:
Seeing is believing no longer applies. Some will take longer to catch up.
- Comment on Something to Remember Us By: Device Confiscated by Russian Authorities Returned with Monokle-Type Spyware Installed 4 months ago:
I wouldn’t either. Though wiping and boot attestation of GrapheneOS put up a higher tampering threshold.
- Comment on Something to Remember Us By: Device Confiscated by Russian Authorities Returned with Monokle-Type Spyware Installed 4 months ago:
Sounds like propaganda to me.
- Comment on ZX Spectrum: The computer that became a 1980s icon 4 months ago:
I remember the white ZX-80 and black ZX-81 as the first computers I could touch apart from PET and CBM Commodores at school.
- Comment on "What Is Your Dream for Mozilla" - Mozilla is doing a survey, questions include "What is most important to you right now about technology and the internet?" 5 months ago:
The questionnaire is about AI, race and so any genders. That’s all you need to know about their focus.
Stick a fork in them. They’re done.
- Comment on The Great Migration to Bluesky Gives Me Hope for the Future of the Internet 5 months ago:
That decentralized and self-hostable platforms like Lemmy are fringe does not give me hope for the future of social networks on the Internet.
- Comment on Reddit is profitable for the first time ever, with nearly 100 million daily users 5 months ago:
While you might feel (incorrectly, since you’re using Lemmy right now) that open source operating systems and the associated software ecosystem might be useless for you personally, as a blanket statement this is remarkably silly.
