The podcast “build for tomorrow”
That’s basically the entire premise of the podcast, which they relate via hilarious stories from the past.
I recommend the episode on Teddy bears, or bicycles. (Both of which by the way threaten to unravel the very fabric of American society)
Back before smart phones I always preferred flip phones over “candy bars”, the flip phone helps to protect the delicate screen and buttons while the phone is in your pocket/purse. You don’t really need a case for a flip phone.
Modern smart phones tend to be more delicate than they should be across the board, but in theory, a flip phone puts the more delicate parts in a safer place.
Someone should put words to Nirvana songs. I always thought it would be cool if some of those songs conveyed some sort of message.
I have anecdotal evidence that people get misinformation from tiktok.
My son in law (who unfortunately lives with us, but that’s another rant) was telling me about a third assassination plot against Donald Trump. He wanted to show me this tiktok with the news. I was able to inform him that these rumors weren’t accurate, and he quickly confirmed that.
But I only knew to question his assertion because i’d already seen news here on Lemmy that there were debunked rumors of another assassination plot. That is to say, Lemmy never pushed the tumor as news, but rather only reported about the already debunked rumors continuing to circulate. The disinformation continuing to spread was the interesting news on Lemmy.
Yep, I think you’re right.

Yeah, I think you’re probably exactly right.
I guess that goes to show that harsh penalties don’t prevent crimes. Sigh… our justice system is so messed up.
How do you bring yourself to do something so wrong, that you can’t stand the idea of living after people find out?
It’s like that first rule of gambling, never bet more than youre willing to lose… Just never do anything so wrong that you can’t live with it.
Found the Chinese agent!
General population: I do agree with you. They’d be looking at the next shiney new celebrity scandal or whatever.
I’m not sure I even believe that. I mean look how much generative AI is dominating the conversation, despite being garbage. I think aliens would have a similar ability to dominate conversation, even for the general public.
If nothing else developed from the talks, then yes.
But if it started a new conversation with academics, if it opened trade opportunities, if it brought meaningful new technology, it would dominate world discussion for decades.
But if it was a single message sent at the speed of light and we had to wait 50 years for our reply to get back to them, and then 50 more years to hear any more communication…
Yeah, nobody’s going to remember that happened.
More spiderman it is!
Alright people, we’re making 5 new Spider-Man films, let’s get to work!
under international law if a device is used for military transmissions it is a valid target and can be attacked.
I think this means that if an Israeli sells you a phone, they become a valid target for military strikes.
Fun fact, a group of pedants is called a flem. To use it in a sentence: “the party was ruined by a flem of pedants”.
I know this sounds horrible, but for the Republicans to be this panicked doesn’t exactly bode well for their chances, even if they cheat.
I was there for the election of George W Bush. My takeaway is that you can absolutely win by cheating, if the opposition just lets you do it.
The headline should read:
Despite best efforts and all odds, ISPs find themselves on the right side of history.
Those now saying 5 to 10 years are VC backed startups.
It’s scientists and engineers saying it, it may also be VCs, but 5-10 is the official line from engineers.
The bottom line is this, maybe one of these startups or smaller reactor designs will work, you never know. But at the end of the day, ITER is scheduled to be completed in 2034, and at that scale, it will be net energy positive, there’s no doubt.
So, as far as I can tell, the primary difference with this version of the game is that it uses question registers?
What does that mean, functionally?
Like how does that affect the software? How would the software run on an actual quantum computer?
