Fax is still quite popular in healthcare. It needs to die already...

I loved the video it has about nuclear fission reactions.

Sign up for a month, binge, cancel, next.

That's not going to last. As soon as they run the numbers and decide it's worth it, they'll create ways to lock you in.

I'll be completely unsurprised when streaming companies start enticing or forcing us into term agreements.

More like preaching what they practice, amiright?

If you use the gamingest headphones with proprietary dongles, you can get decent latency. But then you're sacrificing on sound quality or ANC, and if you have multiple devices you want to use them with (eg a console and a PC), you have to either physically move the dongle between them, or suffer with Bluetooth lag and connection hassles on one of them.

Bluetooth is still bullshit in terms of latency. It will get better with LE Audio, but whether it will get good enough is anyone's guess, and it's still in its infancy and support is almost non-existent.

Stopping math is never a good idea. By limiting your own constituents, you set their progress back from what other governments' constituents can achieve.

Also, effectively replacing a CEO requires AGI level capabilities. We're closer to that than ever before, but LLMs in their current state aren't it.

They lost almost half their ad revenue. I'd call that recent. Of course, it hasn't actually killed the platform...

It's not a very good point. You do have a say: vote.

Though it can be reasonably argued that voting doesn't work because of all the corruption, in which case all I can say is we need to stop the two party tyranny by ending FPTP voting and promote/enact ideas that reduce the influence that money can have on politics.

I thought heat is the main thing limiting computer performance? Like, if we had superconducting transistors that take little energy to change state, highly parallel tasks that are power-limited today would get a whole lot faster. Think native 4k path tracing-level graphics in games on our phones. And better/faster/cheaper AI systems, though they are limited more by memory than by compute, so they'd likely still be run in the cloud mostly.

I wonder how searchable Lemmy will be compared to Reddit. Even during/after the blackout, I still get the best results on Google by adding site:reddit.com to most of my searches. When there's a way to do that for Lemmy (even via a dedicated fediverse indexing site), and it has even a decent fraction of the utility that searching Reddit via Google has, I'll be real happy.
