I’m not one to actively encourage increases in military spending but if it’s to outfit the orcas, I’m all for it

Oh for sure on all points.
I was just saying that the intensive folding process wasn’t nearly as necessary for the euro smiths. Especially, as you said, they had more than enough carbon sources to make up for any deficits in their iron sources.
Once the smith turns the raw material into steel, there was very little difference beyond what the final product needed in hardness/flexibility.
I was under the impression the folding technique of Japanese blades was due to the low carbon content and the process of folding included adding carbon to the iron as well as incorporating it throughout the metal.
European iron ore already had larger amounts of carbon which meant the folding and adding carbon process wasn’t required to create a serviceable edge.
Except for almost every device I want to put custom firmware on, apparently.
Hi. I grew up in a city with named streets. One street can have four names depending on where you’re at on it. You’ve never had to deal with directing someone down a city full of that, apparently.
On the other hand, we have an area with lettered streets. L comes before M, N, O, P, etc. If you’re on F and need to get to C Street, you know you need to go up 3 blocks. Meanwhile, if you’re on Johnson and need to get to North York, you have to know that it’s the same street and changes names in 7 blocks.
As someone who just had a one shot with three couples and one guy who murderhoboed until he had to leave to take care of his pregnant wife, I find this stereotype funny as hell.
I flipped between dark tower and cheater mccheater face on the bottom right.
Damn. I hope that place paid enough to deal with that nonsense. My place doesn’t care if I’m completely naked as long as I take calls, respond to tickets, and get the work done. Then again we’re also permanent wfh minus the odd onsite here and there
I don’t use the drive through because I’m lazy. I use it so I can have the most minimal amount of human contact possible
Assuming you don’t live in a food desert… Or have a baby that requires more milk than you can produce… Or have a pet that requires a particular diet…
In my area it’s around $3.20
Honestly not sure which is worse. Peafowl or guinea fowl
Sometimes it’s less about the person that you’re targeting and more about what that access gives you.
Low level accountant? Office worker with an excel file full of passwords or has correspondence with your actual target at a different company that you can pose as to gain access into?
They’re just a step in the process.
Depends on how we approach viability, imo
Can we currently see a reason for it with its current abilities/functions? No
But
We can look right at the history of conventional computing to predict a possible timeline for it. Single purpose computational machines that took a lot of power, a lot of room, and were fairly rare. Used for military or research purposes. Multi purpose machines that could run user created calculations and were slightly smaller and efficient. Begins to be used in more academic settings Multipurpose machines capable of being used to aid general office staff, continue to become more compact and efficient Portability becomes possible for select few with a need And so on until we arrive to now where nearly everything and everyone has a computer
I’m more expecting innovations to reduce the need for the super cooling but same
While true, it doesn’t mean we should stop. At worst, we find techniques that improve other areas of technology
Honestly the laws of physics are constantly in flux and there’s no telling what we could create to circumvent the limits we’re currently pushing.
As I mentioned in my example: before the innovations with transistors, there was no way to make a portable computer. It was physically impossible
And digital computers needed tube relays and entire buildings to work. With innovation and time, it’ll become more easily handled
I think it’ll take a new component/circuit design for quantum to be viable for home computing similar to the transformation that happened to computers after the addition of the transistor
This is exactly why they’re attacking. Humans fucking up their environment.
