I mean there is something like that. It’s called a phone number. Problem is, that the way it was thought out is not the way it works today.

(My knowledge is a few years old, so please correct me if I’m wrong) That said, the way it works is like this:

Your phone connects to your phone provider with your number and says: “Here I am, please route calls to me.” Or “Please route this call to number XYZ.” The provider then forwards it either to the next hop in the direction of XYZ or directly to XYZ’s provider. In the end the call lands at XYZ’s phone and the call begins. Great stuff.

But today it works a bit differently due to the way those companies “just trust” each other.

A malicious actor with a weird (malicious) provider just says: “This is my number, route a call to XYZ.” And then just provides a wrong number and instead of stopping them, the provider just routes it. And all the other providers trust them and just route the call normally. If phone providers would just block list all traffic of malicious providers, all of this would last maybe a month and there would be no more scam calls from spoofed numbers. And afterwards providers could say to other providers “there is scam traffic coming from you with number XYZ, stop that or I won’t route your traffic.” and then call scams would just cease to exist in a year.

Even worse, malicious actors can register your number with one of those providers. Then the provider will tell the others and they will be like “well if you say so…” and just forward your calls to the wrong person.

(Yes, there is lots of wishful thinking in this comment, but let me dream of a better world)

Uh, a German joke!

(Po means butt)

Factorio is great, how has no one mentioned it yet? Also Dwarf Fortress, Into the breach and “FTL - Faster Than Light”.

They all have native ports and are moddable.

Factorial and FTL even have huge overhaul mods, that change most stuff so they don’t really get boring.

Or the avengers explanation for time travel.

Oh, when you are small, time runs slower? Wow, then we can definitely travel back in time like that, because… Quantum!

Okay, name a few bad ones and for each I’ll give you a good one in return!

Okay, it’s early where I am, but 1300*24(hours)*365,25(days/year)*30(years) is not a billion. It’s 341.874.000, so barely a third of the way. You need to ‘earn’ roughly 3803$ per hour to be over a billion in 30 years.

Don’t jinx it!

Malus uses two AIs for that. One creates a spec and the other implements that spec.

But that doesn’t even work, because you would have to prove that the original software was not part of the training set. And with it being an LLM from a big corporation, that chance is close to zero.

Okay, but how do you “slow mind” a child?

Hit them in the head?

No. Let’s take Harry Potter.

I acknowledge JK Rowling’s role as creator of the franchise as well as her current devolvement into this transphobe asshole that she is. The material itself is to my knowledge not transphobe (it doesn’t mention transitioning or trans persons itself, and could maybe even be viewed as pro-trans with the whole polyjuice stuff).

So I know the source of this work and can thus be cautious about potential transphobe parts

Her work is (ignoring her) a very popular piece of culture and we as a community should thus be able to extend it further, thus making it a community effort and slowly releasing it from the grasp of Rowling.

Das “-taur” kommt natürlich von “Taurus” also Stier. Also eindeutig “Minoraffe”, klingt auch passend, finde Ich. Nur ein wenig nach Affe.

Correct.

Downvoted, textwall!

The theoretically is load bearing here. Also China themselves massively build their solar, so it being built using coal is not quite right. Also also other countries were able to build solar before so theoretically they could do so again if sufficiently subsidized.

Please everyone read or at least skim articles before posting. The article literally says, that it’s “an honest bump” to allow typical usage like web browsing and multitasking.

Ubuntu experts at OMG Ubuntu characterize the latest revision in RAM specs as “an honesty bump.” In other words, the core OS isn’t really more demanding on system resources this time around, but Canonical recognizes that with the latest Gnome desktop, modern web browsers, and typical multitasking workflows, users should look at a minimum of 6GB of RAM.

Okay, I have never heard of using coal plants for nuclear and found nothing online. Do you have some sources for me?

And yes, I get the rest, but I would prefer to not use nuclear, but given the current development, I’d prefer going full nuclear over whatever the fuck a lot of countries are doing right now.

Okay. That is true.

Still I think going back to nuclear is not a great idea. It still relies on fishy countries and is not renewable, takes ages to build and harms the environment through the emitted heat especially in summer (and other problems).

That said, I still massively prefer it to coal and gas. Its not even remotely close.

The need for power will actually shrink with growing electrification, since a lot of those technologies are more energy efficient.
