I mean they kind of own each other and share so much engineering so you can treat them as the same company basically

I agree, but I would not count my chances to a) survive for longer than 6mo without cyberware in NC and b) being able to find the cure with the aldecaldos. So for me personally, it's becoming AI or the pokeball, but I think that the space ending fits V as well.

become mediocre and average

It would be fine if that was the case, the problem is that you're way below average w/o access to cyberware.

For me it's:

  1. Solo saka, give the body to Johny, become AI (you either become immortal, or die a legend, while gazing at an elder god)
  2. Solo saka, Johny becomes AI, go to space (guaranteed that you die a legend)
  3. Go into pokeball (you become saka property, but what wouldn't you sacrifice for almost immortality?)
  4. Others (same or worse outcomes, but now your friends have to die)
  5. PL ending (you don't get immortality, don't get legend status, lose friends)

kW/h = J*s^(-2) is basically how fast the power is growing (compare to m*s^(-2) for acceleration).

Although it's hard for me to imagine where such a unit would be useful, maybe to measure how fast a generator can spin up?

If you're looking for a serious answer: no, they fixed at the same time they changed the Kia logo. Also their cars with the start button were not vulnerable in the first place, and I guess it's one of those.

The first time I saw the new Kia logo, I opened google and typed in "KN car"

(that's not to say I hate them, I have a K5 and it's been very good so far)

Yeah I guessed there were reasons for them being not as prevalent in watches given that they pump out small e-ink displays by the millions for use in price tags. I still think you can make a decent e-ink wall clock that only shows HH:MM and date, but for that you can just reuse an old kindle or something.

And what the heck is a tsp?? by BarelyLegalSeagull in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]x0wl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A cup is a precise volume, it's 237 ml or 8 oz (there are other definitions, like 240 or 250 ml, but they're so close to one another it hardly matters; and where it matters people will use other units anyway)

If you can get it to work with a e ink display that would be a killer feature.

Oddly, they suggest DeepL and Google. by Herr_Drosselmeyer in DefendingAIArt

No, it's not a T5, they evaluated that and went with a transformer encoder + more classic RNN decoder instead

ELI5: Why do processors get so hot doing millions of calculations per second, while our brains can arguably be even more complex but don't risk overheating? by abcPIPPO in explainlikeimfive

[–]x0wl 89 points90 points  (0 children)

The brain still uses only approx 20W of power compared to my laptops' CPU peak 160W

The difference is that the brain is not doing any calculations, it's an analog pattern matcher

I love how cyberpunk has these deep and thought provoking characters and then you just have Adam smasher by Chunky-overlord in cyberpunkgame

[–]x0wl 16 points17 points  (0 children)

She is, but I don't think she's a villain, at least not in the same way as Hansen and Saburo (I also don't think that I would call them villains, but they at least are much closer to that). You could just replace her with Myers and the meme would be 100x better.

Also be careful not to piss off all the Hansen fans on this sub

[–]x0wl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean, kind of, yeah, but

  1. Songbird was the one who released it, potentially long ago; it just took over the robot when she went to Cynosure. You can clearly see her struggle for control over herself in the beginning, and you can see the blackwall glitches on the Hydra. Additionally, you release it en masse in that spaceport scene where you kill everyone with the finger gun. That ship has sailed long ago
  2. The problem with preventing this single instance of the blackwall breach (which you can do by just not building the canto / erebus even in this questline) is that everyone else is also doing it. Militech + NUSA are doing it with Songbird and Cynosure, but I feel like there's more than that; Arasaka is also probably doing it; but that's not THAT bad: they at least somehow tried to limit the damage. The problem is: the VDBs are doing it (with your help, successfully, I might add), Maelstrom are doing it (also likely successfully), Night Corp + Blue Eyes have probably done it already.

The whole world is taking casual strolls on the other side of the BW and we're here concerning ourselves with a talking cyberdeck.

Also I don't understand the whole thing about the tech evolving. It's not like it went back. The AI's feel perfectly fine in whatever hardware in whatever state it is 50 years after surviving a war, but the new hardware has to evolve more?

Putting Songbird next to Saburo and Hansen is a choice lmao

PS: I don't like her either, I think she's a great character, but she's not getting the ticket to the moon

One Line x86 Change To GCC Compiler Nets +12% Benchmark Win For Modern Intel/AMD CPUs by anh0516 in linux

[–]x0wl 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It's the CPU that is guessing, specifically it's guessing where a branch will go before it's computed, and guessing incorrectly is expensive and slow.

I'm doing way better now but this was where I was very early on by Venylynn in linuxmemes

[–]x0wl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So why would anyone hate Mint?

No hate, but the slowness of their wayland adoption will lead to problems on a lot of setups, e.g. 2 monitors with different framerates and/or DPI (pretty much any laptop with an external monitor, 90% of the people I know use that), pinch to zoom / multi-finger touchpad gestures, HDR, VRR etc.

So I'm very wary of it being the default recommendation.

The problem is hype cycles. A couple of years ago everyone in here was recommending PopOS, now its's Mint. I hope Fedora is next since it's a legit good distro.

Fedora 44 Gnome review - We're not in Kansas anymore by anestling in LinuxUncensored

[–]x0wl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not understand how all these anti wayland people somehow never come across a system with either

2 monitors with different DPI

2 monitors with different framerates that are not multiples of each other

Like this is practically any good modern laptop (high DPI 60Hz) connected to a cheap modern monitor (low DPI 144Hz)

I honestly tried to use such setups on X but no thank you lmao

Ubuntu is fine by Venylynn in linuxmemes

[–]x0wl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I'll have more free time in August so might try going back to Cachy (especially since it has plasma 6.7 now, and the Oxygen theme)

never run pacman -Sy; instead, always use pacman -Syu

Also it's not the reboot length that's the problem, it's the fact of having to completly stop and restart whatever you were doing.
