The Mint team also puts out a very stable version called LMDE which is based on Deb rather than Ubuntu.

Interesting when authority-figures start foaming at the mouth about the word ‘woke’. A dog-whistle to those who need the sleep-walking to keep behaving predictably … and to the work of those who’ve spent decades and billions to program that behavior. This cha-cha has been going on since at least the beginning of the Holy Roman Empire.

Sooo… you’re looking for volunteers to join your discord … no website to learn more … and get involved with … who, where, what, why completely unknown … to ‘collaborate remotely’ to ‘foster critical thinking’ … with little mention of what ‘volunteers’ will get in return … that’s all a very vague come-on inviting complete strangers to cooperate with you … an completely unknown organization, no mention of your qualifications, no mention of who’s paying for this (podcasting is not free) or why … that is SO NOT TEMPTING

“It’s associated with “Location Services” on most devices, meaning that you cannot opt out of your phone reporting the locations of surrounding Wi-Fi devices without turning off your phone’s ability to obtain its location entirely.”

You may usually know where you’re at, but maybe someone else needs to?

Except in regions where there is no access to Pu … as the article itself pointed out.

Good point on the lubricants, but given the potential profits, it’s already being worked on. https://www.nyelubricants.com/space

That it is!

10 times as much as gold

To -make-, yep. As the article pointed out, there’s a lot of Amercium in waste dumps where old smoke detectors … and anyone can make it. Five times the half-life means it can power much longer missions.

Going by ‘colour’, I’d guess that headline came from the UK. Writing them is a tricky, trippy task.

Electrics produce maximum torque at 0 rpm …

Yep, I noticed that, you’re right. And that’s near-miraculous efficiency. The maker’s website sez: “YASA also estimates that its all-important continuous power will be in the region of 350kW-400kW (469bhp-536bhp).” It also sez: "To achieve a 750kW short-term peak rating and a density of 59kW/kg … " Devi’ls in the details … The image on the ‘superblondie’ page shows A LOT of cooling built into whatever metal that is: https://supercarblondie.com/wp-content/uploads/YASA-tiny-electric-motor.webp

I think he was trying to admit he doesn’t know shit about electric motors.

Like Starbux, in its hometown.

Buying homes to use as gambling chips is a crime against humanity

Oh those mathers. At least scientists are humble enough to recognize that theorums about the physical world can’t be proven.

Oh noes, how could that -possibly- scale?

It was a decent summary, I was replying when you pulled it. Analog has its strengths (the first computers were analog, but electronics was much cruder 70 years ago) and it is def. a better fit for neural nets. Bound to happen.

Nice thorough commentary. The LiveScience article did a better job of describing it for people with no background in this stuff.

The original computers were analog. They were fast, but electronics was -so crude- at the time, it had to evolve a lot … and has in the last half-century.
