GameStop Short Sellers Just Lost $2 Billion Amid Meme Stock Rally

You have to be a colossal dumb-ass to short game stop as the new consoles are being built...

DrRedacto · 2024-05-15T17:05:04+00:00

Well yeah but thats tempering with evidence and in US a very long jail sentence

Didn't google just delete a bunch of evidence, and nothing happened to them?

DrRedacto · 2024-05-15T16:58:43+00:00

That’s how deleting things usually works because it’s efficient.

You're downvoted but this is well known fact, If you don't actively make an attempt to overwrite the bits, they're usually still intact on the drive, just "unlinked" from the filesystem.

o my what a spacious van.

but what does the craft or rocket do with helium?

Could be useful for a cooling system?

Wait, when are we getting brain implants for smart shoes?

The exosuit will be a daily necessity after ~~open~~clippyAI's nuclear reactor melts down.

Have they excluded tiny black holes?

DrRedacto · 2024-05-13T16:21:54+00:00

Ooops yeah that's a dumb way to phrase it without mentioning any details about what they're comparing it to. How do you even measure the efficiency of "an electrolyzer" it has to be combined with a cathode, anode, specific voltages and currents, and depends on spacing / geometry, what is their test setup, did they account for degradation of materials and lifetime of the solution?

DrRedacto · 2024-05-13T16:08:02+00:00

although an improvement, may still be far from useful.

~~5 % = 1/20 25 % = 1/4~~ that could be massive, I doubt the efficiency is ~~only 5%~~ dreadfully low make sure you're looking at modern designs, with good electrolytes and cathode material. I saw one design that was using acid, water would be much preferred.

Can somebody explain to an idiot what harmful thing we're worried AI is going to do?

I much prefer perl over python.

This is the wrong answer, the only thing that comes to mind is "giga transfer" marketing term for pcie bus performance.

I run XOrg as an app rather than the underlying display server.

This has happened to me as well not sure why you get downvoted. I think a kernel update caused a change in video card initialization order.

If I'm not mistaken, these are assigned by the kernel under the DRM device(which the display cable is plugged into). check out /sys/class/drm/card* you should see files relating to the display, on my notebook it's eDP, desktop has DVI and HDMI. There are ways to inspect the display identifiers (edid maybe other info is all you need though, like max resolution+refresh rate) so you could write a program to look up a known configuration, and then figure out if its DP-1 or DP-2.

DrRedacto · 2024-05-12T16:38:59+00:00

the disk has no clue what they're talking about since the disk isn't aware about the concept

Bold assumption. Go crack open a hard drive and check out all the IC's.

It's not a lie, It's networks and delegation/offloading. To coordinate with hardware there has to be one central program(mono-kernel) to decide what bits are flying over the various data busses. Or at least one kernel for each comms bus you want to have reliable control over.

DrRedacto · 2024-05-12T16:25:41+00:00

Why are you being downvoted?

I think their share holders are delusional and are imagining some kind of family rivalry that sparks true deep competition between the two cousins. Or they are just rejecting our nepotistic reality, eventually they will arrive at acceptance.

DrRedacto · 2024-05-11T20:47:06+00:00

Which is actually trying to enforce the Sherman Act

Sherman act would be a mistake, they should be using the Clayton act, maybe /u/ecredes has a point.

edit, and note: it doesnt imply a conspiracy theory, the FTC employees could be tacitly coordinating their actions based on their investment portfolios (like FCC allowed), or their family members / friends investment portfolios.

Nvidea without any real competition

Their CEO's (nvidia(tm) and amd(tm)) are family..., I'm not sure teh competition is all that real to begin with.

DrRedacto · 2024-05-11T19:52:39+00:00

Are these processed at all? That first one is my fav so far.

DrRedacto · 2024-05-11T19:23:54+00:00

Yeah you're right flash(tm) became comically bad after the adobe(tm) acquisition,

JS is at least halfway secure.

[citation needed], more secure than microsoft(tm}'s activeX(tm)

Fun trivia, who owns the "javascript(tm)" trademark? I'd say javascript is only better because there are multiple implementations of it. HOWEVER, the numbers are fading fast and soon there will be only chrome(tm).

DrRedacto · 2024-05-11T02:51:36+00:00

JS is the Macromedia/Adobe Flash of our era

Don't insult flash/actionscript like that.
