  • I always imagined this portrait was made right after Euler washed his hair, and it's just a towel.

  • Try saying Tibet on a bus stop, and watch your ass getting hauled to the nearest police station in like 30 seconds.

  • Some rich dude paid a lot of money to have an engraved gunspear, with a fancy tactical cutout in the blade (a totally functional feature to make it more lethal by increasing blood flow, and not at all decorative, I assure you).

  • Who would benefit from disrupting Ubuntu sofrware updates? Seems related to the recently discovered kernel vulnerability. Some state-funded cybercrime unit needs a bit more time to infect your servers before you update them.

  • It comes with a copy of Internet Explorer, and a copy of MS-DOS.

  • Wow, that was an intense self-diacovery.

    They do use radioactive decay in archeology to measure time, but the precision is within a thousand years.

  • I'm not falling asleep, my laptop is falling asleep.

    The problem is that it never wakes up. The solution is to disable every low-power option in system settings, and pretend that my laptop is very critical server, because Debian is made for servers.

  • Never heard of such clock. You'll also need to regularly recalibrate your radioactive sample, because it decreases in weight over time. And you need a Geiger counter to measure that radiation, which is also not super precise.

    A regular crystal oscillator seems better.

  • Nope. Quantum events are random. A clock requires precise periodic events, it cannot use random noise.

  • I grieved when I bought a used laptop with Windows pre-installed. I immediately performed a ritual of Debian purification.

    Windows, or any other corporate MICROS~1 product dying is a cause for celebration.

  • That folding ruler is the only thing preventing the door to shut close and trap you in the vault forever.

    I guess you can drill a bigger hole in the wall to escape.

  • Is never connected to a network, public or private (always offline)

    99% of all modern games won't even start

  • Wow cool, gonna try it.

  • Discomfort with new modem technology shapes frustration as no modern terminal application has ZModem support.

  • In theory yes. In practice no one wants to try it.

  • Almost every organic molecule has a mirrored counterpart, like a normal screw and a left-handed screw.

    Almost none of them occur in the nature.

    So we have the technology to synthesize them now, and synthesize a bacteria out of them.

    But if you do that, and the bacteria escapes, all your existing medicine will be useless, so you need to re-synthesize all your antibiotics in left-hand configuration.

    That typically does not happen with regular bacteria experiments, because most of what you can synthesize in the lab will be a descendant of some other well-known bacteria, which already have an appropriate medicine to treat it, and in most cases it will be effective against your new strain.

  • AI with an attached 7.62mm machinegun.

  • Well, basically, Bluetooth chip is expensive, especially for older Bluetooth standard. It's cheaper to have one headphone to receive Bluetooth data and transfer it to the other headphone using some dumb RF protocol, maybe even scrambled FM.
