1·11 days agoYeah there is definitely a difference between $30 dollar headphones and $3000 Dollar ones. I bought cheap razer headphones and expensive mid range Sennheiser headphones, the Sennheiser are amazing, razer is practically garbage in comparison. Never cared about cables though as long as they work and last long, I don’t care.

Abstract A probabilistic model is introduced for the problem of stimulating a large male audience. Double jerking is considered, in which two shafts may be stimulated with a single hand. Both tip-to-tip and shaft-to-shaft configurations of audience members are analyzed. We demonstrate that pre-sorting members of the audience according to both shaft girth and leg length allows for more efficient stimulation. Simulations establish steady rates of stimulation even as the variance of certain parameters is allowed to grow, whereas naive unsorted schemes have increasingly flaccid perfor- mance.
I think these laws will be similar to prohibition. They will try for a while, but then realize they can’t succeed. Governments can’t even handle cyber security, how will they handle this?
Honestly, people are still on twitter, majority aren’t moving to mastodon or bluesky. The most successful is Lemmy in my opinion.

Even used drives are expensive, no way I am buying this until it reaches the used drive market, no way it is affordable for normal consumers.
A giant chicken, truly terrifying.
Oh your right my mistake. I guess unit testing and debugging are useful. I did use copilot to find a missing slash. Also useful for revising email and paragraphs, of course you have to review it. It also should never be used for scientific research and journalism. Of course it doesn’t justify the investments into LLMs, we should focus on more useful things like alpha fold
It is useful in some specific fields like protein folding:

The problem is people think it can replace people which is wrong, it is a tool and should be used as such not as a replacement.

2·1 month agoFrom what I heard his later books are the issue like flashback:
!a poet who fled Israel after 6 million Jews were murdered by the Muslim “Global Caliphate” — seem to have been created for the sole purpose of explaining why the left wing has destroyed America. !<

I just learned he is very racist, does Hyperion have his political views in it? I can read Lovecraft just fine, since it is it a product of its time. This on the other hand is recent. I also heard it has a Palestinian character how are they portrayed?

2·1 month agoDepends on console architecture, these days they are all x86 I believe, so very easy. In the past for example the PS3, it was basically hard because it is a different architecture this is why even emulator for PS3 are still not perfect.
I never read his books, but Hyperion is on my list. Is it that good? I see more people talking about Dune.
