I know we’re all here for the LOLs, but just a quick reminder: it’s ok to enjoy things without being able to monetize them.

The dollar was fully decoupled from the gold standard in 1971. I think this is just a slightly delayed reaction to that.

Where can I get one of these??

And it was powered by Linus Torvalds!

I don’t think the Mediaworkstations a-X2P ever came out of “limited production”, but with an EPYC processor, desktop GPU and 6 screens it still meets the mark IMO.

[Edit]: Sorry, a pair of EPYC processors. And it’s a shipping product.

He probably would have figured it out had he had time to evolve into Megahertz.

I think that is literally how it’s done today.

Yes technically, but… I was gonna say “how would you even act on that?” but decided I’d prefer not to know.

Oh, yeah, this is not a knock against the admins at all. The .zip team might have an amazing set of contingency plans, etc - I have no idea - which would make this more or less a moot point. I’m just not a fan of single points of failure.

Since this is tagged on lemmy.zip I’d like to point out that it might not be the best idea for existing lemmy.zip users to also use piefed.zip since if the admin(s) are no longer able to continue both of your presences would go down. In the true spirit of the fediverse it makes sense to spread your logins around.

That seems like a steal. The cpu is very capable and there’s plenty of RAM. And it’s a thinkpad…

Yeah it can’t be. Even an expensive car like a Corvette was only around $6k and most of the examples on this list are in the $2-3k range.

The Meta AI app is a Privacy Disaster.

I think it’s a fair concern in general but fine in this case since the company almost certainly edited in the lux operon which is one of the most well studied and understood gene switches out there. It and similar pathways have been used in many branches of science for decades. I think the novelty here is just that it’s in a consumer product instead.

yeah I think I’d cook more fun stuff too if I didn’t have to clean up afterward. 😂

Did he clean up afterwards? That seems to be the part my kids struggle with.

It’s hard to imagine how an LLM would figure out gate-level performance improvements but I could definitely see a GAN doing that with enough time and effort.

While China adjusts its feedstock mix at limited cost to its petrochemical industry, U.S. producers are facing more significant supply chain disruptions. Not only are these disruptions entirely of Washington’s own making, but they could have been anticipated by anyone with a basic understanding of ethane production.

I give you a lot of credit. I got about 3 paragraphs in (which was the amount I deemed necessary and sufficient enough to judge the quality of the whole) and bailed.
