What a coincidence, I just watched the Scrubs episode with the Dr Toilet running gag.

I want to see someone build this so badly.

This guy did something in the same vein but tried to make a musical instrument instead: https://youtu.be/yFIxf2gTg_k

The human body is 70% water. The energy required to evaporate all that would wipe out anything you’d get from combusting the organic matter. And it’s not like they could leave them out back to dry out like seasoning firewood.

That means that somewhere among the stars are planets full of sexy alien babes.

Finally something to live for.

The review I linked quotes 5-8W under load so I’d expect it to be about 10 hours on the Framework 13’s 55Wh battery and about ~15h on the Framework 16’s 85Wh battery.

But it also can’t play a 1080p YouTube video worth a damn so it’s hard to imagine what you’d actually wanna use it that long for.

It is absolutely more of a development board than one meant even for early-bird adopters. The processing power is more on-par with a Raspberry Pi. Here’s a review of another development board using the same processor: https://bret.dk/risc-v-starfive-visionfive-2-review-jh7110/#Geekbench-6

Compare the Geekbench 6 scores to the Ryzen 7040HS in the Framework 16: https://browser.geekbench.com/v6/cpu/4260192

As the review author explains, Geekbench 6 is a bit unfair to the JH7110 since it’s missing some processor extensions, but even if we pretended it had a similar lead over the Pi 4 as it does on the Unixbench suite, it’d still be an order of magnitude behind the AMD processor.

You’re not really gonna be gaming on this thing, and you might not have a great experience even with normal desktop productivity software. These boards are likely gonna be relegated mostly to compiling code and running tests.

If a future revision is a little more powerful though, it could maybe make for a decent netbook. At just $200 it could also be a pretty good value for the education sector, maybe as a dev board for systems programming courses.

I’ve been boycotting Facebook since before it was cool.

I feel like he missed an opportunity to sneak in Saddam Hussein.

This decade it’s AI, last decade it was outsourcing to the third world. The assault on skilled workers never stops.

Managers who try to replace engineers with AI are probably shitty bosses to work for anyway, because they don’t have a single fucking clue about what the job actually entails.

The only thing those employees lost was their income. I’d move on and never look back.

Fish is a great shell, but whenever I SSH into another machine I end up having to do everything in Bash anyway. So the fact that Fish is so different often ends up being a detriment, because it means I have to remember how to do things in two different shells. It was easier to just standardize on Bash.

I might try daily driving it again when this release hits the stable repos, I dunno.

So is this suggesting the cosmological constant isn’t actually constant, but depends on the configuration of matter?

A Linux distro with a great OOTB experience for gamers would go a long way.

• Steam pre-installed
• trustworthy Flatpak packages for popular gamer apps like Discord (not uploaded by some nameless rando)
  • TeamSpeak for curmudgeons like me and my friends
• desktop environment tailored to Windows users
• auto-install and configure graphics drivers for AMD and Nvidia
• configurable automatic updates and system backup
• choice between Chromium, Firefox, etc. for default browser during setup
• included in Steam Deck compatibility testing

Seems Overstreet is just pissy that he can’t talk to people on the kernel mailing list like it’s 2005 anymore. “Get the fuck out of here with this shit,” indeed.

This is the whole idea behind Turing-completeness, isn’t it? Any Turing-complete architecture can simulate any other.

Reminds me of https://xkcd.com/505/

I’m no lawyer but I think drilling into someone’s head without permission might still count as assault.

In all fairness, I think it was a joke.

Jfc, having the girl in the room at all is a liability, let alone letting her touch the patient.

I hope this guy’s malpractice lawyer has good heart meds.

Hypothetically speaking, how might one be able to get their hands on this candy?

I need it for my… ADHD
