Nah, if that’s the goal they’ll just use Neutrino Bombs (look them up, they’re crazy what they’re designed to do)

Ml is a ticking time bomb. Mali is starting to take back its domain and lemmy.ml could go offline at any time. OP specifically noted that too.

I know everyone likes to tout VR, but I really think that AR will be the sweet spot most people ultimately adopt. Add it into nice looking glasses (sorry Google Glass, not it) and have some sort of easier to use interface that can interact with your surroundings and that will take off.

Imagine being in a business meeting with a little pop up over each person’s head with their name, title and other interesting information you need to know. Or be at a baseball game and have similar stats pop up above each player’s head. Turn by turn directions overlaid directly on the street. There are endless possibilities (as long as the ads don’t get in the way, but even for them, imagine green screen billboards that can display unique ads too).

as recently as 2005

You do realize that’s almost 20 years ago. That’s like saying “well you realize in 1985…” Back in 2005.

(The 2000s have been a blur for me time wise too)

I often times wonder if an extraterrestrial threat would be a unifying factor or if people would still be selfish unless it affected them. The pandemic was the closest we’ve seen to a world level threat recently and it just increased selfishness IMO (at least in the US)

Showerthoughts in a nutshell. Even when I went through and verified every rule was correct it was still removed. Modmail just responded “well you broke one of the rules” and would never explain which one or how.

Thank you… I hate all the people who are “we’ll permanently destroy the earth and it’ll never recover!” crowd. Maybe for us it’ll be too inhospitable and we won’t survive, but nature is surprisingly resilient. From bacteria that can eat oil and plastic, to entire generations of flora and fauna living in irradiated landscapes, it will adapt and be here long after we’re gone.

I know too many devs to have my body require a firmware update.

Dragon Ball FighterZ was just on sale on steam for 85% off including DLC. Nice to see that happen.

Oops. Didn’t read the way it was phrased. Long time Sync user.

I’m just waiting for post functionality, but this is the Sync that I know and love.

Yeah Sync hasn’t gone done yet, it’s been the instance which lately is lemmy.world being the target of DDoS attacks. When that happens I switch to an alternate account and things are running fine again, so it’s not Sync related.

You went Tiananmen Square on it.

Is this really any different from Spectre and other types of attacks? Except those targeted predictive execution.

But, but, it’s contributing to the entropy of the universe!

Keep going back much, much further. I remember hearing that phrase back in the early 2000s, and wouldn’t doubt it if if was referenced as early as 1999.

MHz refers to the samples per second, not the pitch. CD audio for example is 16-bit/44.1kHz. What that means is there are 16-bits of sampling (audio) taken 44,100 times per second. DSD on the other hand is 1-bit samples taken 11.2 million times per second, this is referred to as DSD256. What that translates to is a digital wave that looks a lot closer to an analog wave than a CD does. It has nothing to do with the frequency of listening in this case.
