are you a goldfish.

When you meet a bear in the woods, there is a 0% chance they will notice how the situation bears a resemblance to the popular meme and proceed to mansplain about how bears are more dangerous.

This is and has always been the one and only reason women choose the bear. But one question yet eludes us: how did the cycle start?

Nokia bought the parent company of bell labs in 2016. By that point bell labs had already been completely restructured to the point that it has basically nothing to do with the historical bell labs.

it soars because the profit was near zero before and is now returning to “normal” (their competitor SK hynix made a 5 billion operating loss in one quarter last year)

I’d think game journalism has been mostly replaced by youtube reviewers / video essays, no?

steam’s drm is a complete joke though? Tons of game developers add their own drm on top because it is so trivial to bypass steam’s own.

Their main product is a marketplace/content delivery system

Oopsie woopsie!

Is there something I should be keeping an eye out for, or preparing for so everything goes smoothly at least with regards to this community?

On the 6th of May, 2028, travel to 2 Augusta Hills Drive, Bakersfield, Kern County, California, United States. At exactly 4 PM local time, place an orange traffic cone on top of the nearest garbage can and await further instructions.

ironically suyu is still up on github

and of course ryujinx hasn’t received any legal threats yet

Youtube actually uses 128kbps opus, which should be significantly better than 160kbps mp3

but the real problem is that you can’t know what quality the uploader used, it all gets recompressed by youtube.

They could do it without recompilation, but something like changing the obfuscation and recompiling for every copy would likely make it much harder to get rid of the watermarks even if you can compare several different copies

(though they could also have multiple watermarked sections so that any group of for example 3 copies would have some section that is identical, but still watermarked and would uniquely identify all three leakers. The amount of data you need the watermarks to contain goes up exponentially with the amount of distinct copies, but if you have say 1000 review copies and want to be resistant to 4 copies being “merged”, you only need to distinguish between 1000^4 combinations so you can theoretically get away with a watermark that only contains about 40 bits of data )

nowadays dwarf fortress has built in multithreading (and the combination of other optimizations and the progress in CPU power has made it a fairly well-performing game overall)

it is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it

Did you even read your own articles?

CBS:

its delayed disclosure of the meltdowns at three reactorswas tantamount to a cover-up

NYT:

Culture of Complicity Tied to Stricken Nuclear Plant

Mainichi:

then TEPCO president Masataka Shimizu had ordered the company not to use the term “meltdown” to describe what had occurred

None of these support anything close to the kind of cover up needed to result in a “nobody can know how many people died” level of lack of information. They’re mostly about failing to report the disaster fast enough and downplaying it by using certain wording and having a lax security culture. Not about the government preventing investigations or giving gag orders or something like that.

That’s the dumbest take I’ve ever heard on this topic and that’s saying a lot

So which part is wrong? Does pollution not kill millions of people each year? Is shutting down reactors on the other side of the planet a smart move when the causes of one disaster are completely inapplicable to them? Are both of these responses reasonable and proportional?

And how do you know how many people were killed by the Fukushima triple meltdown that is in no way contained and has displaced tens of thousands of people permanently? The answer is we don’t know because the Japanese government has systematically suppressed any reliable information from coḿing out. Which just goes to show that nuclear power is a danger to democracy on top of all its other drawbacks.

you’re sounding like a conspiracy theorist. I don’t think japan has a police state that is in the habit of suppressing all information. I’ll admit zero deaths is hyperbole for fukushima. There were probably a few deaths directly caused by, it, maybe a few dozen (at most, and totally unproven) from long-term health effects, and many deaths from the (unnecessary in hindsight) rapid evacuation. They still pale in comparison to the 19 thousand deaths from the tsunami that caused the disaster.

Which just goes to show that nuclear power is a danger to democracy on top of all its other drawbacks

Certainly not an enormous leap in logic at all. No sir. It’s just that the deadly nuclear radiation spontaneously causes the death of liberty. Russia only covers up their nuclear accidents (on those RBMK reactors they are still running) because of nuclear power, certainly not because of the way their society structured.

And who ever said the alternative to building nuclear plants is building more fossil fuel generation capacity?

You just said that. Nobody else said that.

Nuclear is expensive because when particulate pollution kills millions of people every year, nobody cares at all. But when a nuclear accident kills exactly zero people, we get massive levels of hysteria and shut down a dozen nuclear power plants on the other side of the planet.

Imagine the reaction if there was a single nuclear disaster that killed 9 million people. According to greenpeace that’d be 9 chernobyls, but more likely it would be between 100 and 1000 chernobyls. Do you think people might be a bit upset about that? But with fossil fuels that is now happening every single year, and it’s probably just going to get worse. (CO2 emissions are just getting higher every year despite all the growth in renewables) And you get a few news headlines about it and then everyone forgets. Weirdly enough climate change caused by the same fossil fuels gets far more attention, even though those effects are even harder for the average person to understand.

And even with this level of paranoia about nuclear, with the incredible level of security put in with gen 3 reactors that directly contribute to the massive cost and time overruns, we still have these “nuclear is not safe enough” claims flying around.
