Wolf314159@startrek.websiteto Hardware@programming.dev•There's a 25-year-old piece of PC hardware that's still being used in even the most powerful gaming PCs sold today. Happy birthday to USB 2.02·8 天前Ethernet was commercially introduced in 1980 and first standardized in 1983 as IEEE 802.3.
But, the history is a little murky, because older Ethernet was VERY different than it is today and that variety, much like the older USB 1.0, is not at all common in modern machines.
The really really old piece of hardware in every modern powerful gaming PC is the power supply. Surely the form factor and demands made on power supplies have changed incrementally over the years. But the technology that goes into power supplies wasn’t exactly new even before Ethernet or USB.
Key lime juice also makes for a very interesting margarita.
Wolf314159@startrek.websiteto Mental Health@lemmy.world•How can I deal with being very sensitive and being hurt by mean people?English1·13 天前There’s a lot there in that video that I think will resonate with most people, myself included, but I nearly did not get past the philosophical problem of the speaker’s claims that HSPs somehow feel things deeper than others. As if people that are better equipped or trained to manage their emotions are somehow experiencing emotions on a shallower level. That line of logic reminds me way too much of the way colonizers would dehumanize indigenous peoples by claiming that the culture and language of those indigenous peoples were somehow less developed because of a difference in technological development. I know that they are very different situations. I’m just trying to draw abstract parallels to show why I find the language they used offensive.
Either way, that video left me wondering. Which would be more emotionally exhausting, being an HSP or accommodating one on a regular basis?
Was that supposed to be coherent or relevant? Are you lost?
If you’re going to be snarky about units, at least get the significant digits correct. The infographic gives 100°F as the temperature. If I had to guess I’d say that wherever that number came from, it’s precision is much less than a whole °F, but for simplicity let’s just say that the precision is a whole number, no decimal places in the precision. At that precision 37.5°C and 38°C are both also 100°F. There are 9/5 °F for every °C after all. If you’d said 37.7°C I wouldn’t have even commented. But that was one decimal place too far (and being too lazy to find the ° symbol or type out degrees).
You’re all probably saying, “Who cares? Why do you care? Aren’t you just being any even more annoying pedant?”
I do. I don’t know. Probably.
But, if you’re going to be a smartass, you better at least try to be smart about it.

Blue pizza just like aunt Beru used to make.

Wolf314159@startrek.websiteto Kent@feddit.uk•US tourist arrested in seaside town ‘because he didn’t understand UK laws’English2·27 天前Knives suck as a defensive weapon though. I’d rather be robbed than be involved in a knife fight, even if I was the only one with a knife when that fight started. Carrying around a knife for defense if fucking crazy!

Wolf314159@startrek.websiteto And Finally...@feddit.uk•Tourists upset after discovering Abbey Road is 'just a road'13·29 天前Your privilege is showing if you seriously have never confronted the racist undertones of the white colonial idea of darkness. Just for a start “The Heart of Darkness”, the dark continent, the epithet “darky”. There’s so many more it’s often practically it’s got own college class devoted to the subject.
Wolf314159@startrek.websiteto And Finally...@feddit.uk•Tourists upset after discovering Abbey Road is 'just a road'28·29 天前I’ve only ever heard boomers, racists, and idiots use the word “dark” to mean “unknown” or call it the “dark” side when they meant “far” side.

According to this guy’s estimate you’d have to move across the surface at about 9.5 miles or 15.3 kilometers per hour to stay in the Dark Side at the equator.

Wolf314159@startrek.websiteto Science Memes@mander.xyz•TFW you open a 160MB math textbookEnglish261·1 个月前Because vector graphics take up much less space. That’s the joke.
Now I’m going to put the joke out of it’s misery.
Most of the illustrations, formula, tables etc. in a math book could be vector graphics, most of them were in 90% of the upper level math text books I’ve ever had, usually in only 2 colors. Many math formulas can be represented and formatted directly using only Tex or LaTex. Mostly physics and math involving more than two dimensions would have more raster images, even color. But it’s not like the publishers are going to be handing out PDFs with original vector graphics embedded. That would make high quality knockoffs trivial.
Go to a library. Ask a librarian. They may not be able to give some magic bullet answer (a fantasy anyway), but they can point you in the right direction to answer these kinds of questions for yourself.
But I suggest you narrow your focus. You might want to start out looking for topics a little less broad and vague as “time” and “joy”. That would be like trying to research 20th century music that incorporated drums or guitars.
