I’m pretty sure he does, yeah. He needs a bloody conflict to go on to remain in power (and possibly out of prison). Scared people are easier to rule, and terrorism is scary.
How is there no mechanism to remove him? I mean, ideally he shouldn’t have been selected in the first place but under the insanely charitable assumption that it was sloppiness and not active negligence that recruited him.
Congratulations on having one of the worst takes I’ve ever seen (the one about narcissus).
This may be the germanest thing I’ve ever seen. An island named “jam” infested with rich people? Said rich people being literal gentry? And also literal nazis? And also there being a flock of the dirtiest, most disgusting punks you’ve seen to protest them? And the worst rags you’ve ever heard of being there to publicise the spectacle?
I’m not sure Germany is capable of doing anything to a normal degree.
The Monk and Robot books by Becky Chambers take place in a very solar punk setting where significant rewilding has taken place. The main character is a travelling tea monk (you don’t need to know what that is) who travels with what is called an ox-bike. Essentially the setup is an e-bike-driven lightweight campervan or possibly wagon. My impression from the book is that the front bike does not detach from the back.
I’ve done some literal back of the envelope calculations and I think it would be possible to make something like that in real life with our current technology. But I’ve not been able to find any prior art, except for the Wide path bicycle camper, which is more like a trailer than a campervan. My guess is you could improve on the if you made the bike built in, not least because it’s easier to stop without the damned bike falling over.
Have you ever heard of or seen anyone make something like this? Do you think it could work?
I should have expected the rug-pull at the end when I read:
You may know me as a Bitcoin educator and engineer
However, I was still surprised!

I guess what’s happening developmentally is that they’re practicing having conversations and you can do that in form (I speak then you speak then) without having decipherable content down.
I’m not an American but my impression is the Supreme Court is mainly designed as a last bulwark to ensure the US never under any circumstances ever does anything remotely good and this isn’t exactly improving that impression.
I’m a bit worried about their choice of name
Has anyone been able to find an actual description of what this does? I clicked two layers deep and neither explains the details. It does sound like they’re doing CPU scheduling in the hardware, which is cool and makes some sense, but the descriptions are too vague to explain what the hell this is except “more parallelism goes brrrr” and it’s not clear to me why current GPUs aren’t already that.
Oh no we’ve gone full circle
The comments on this one really surprised me. I thought the kinds of people who hang out on XDA-developers were developers. I assumed that developers had a much better understanding of computer architecture than the people commenting (who of course may not be representative of all readers).
I also get the idea that the writer is being vague not to simplify but because they genuinely don’t know the details, which feels even worse.
It’s just this design, lightly sanded and painted.
Wikipedia is now in the interesting position of having to write an encyclopaedia article about the discussions about their original page, in which I suspect they cannot cite themselves as a source.
