i think the most promising research is atmospheric ionic thrusters.

sure they have little to do with vacuum per se but if you could improve them enough to build a sort of cavity with lower pressure inside while providing upwards thrust, essentially directing air streaming into the cavity whereever you want to direct it to, you could both have your cake and eat it. it would be a very good insect trap and a highly efficient way to get rid of excess electricity quickly. perhaps you could also fix the ozone layer with this...

is an "employee of a major customer" an "outside observer"?

personally, i found the slide from mr airforce kinda insulting to vmware:

"if its good enough for weaponssystems, its probably good enough for you."

yeah, i can see how that could deserve a "fuck you"...

from all of vmwares employees.

fuck. thank you. had to collapse three pages of comments to find this... fucking hell

truth.

so you have an about window that says "look how lazy i was, i used all this software i dont support and you still have to pay me full price"

idk. it reaaaaally _isnt_ that big a selling point to see all the open source projects one has used in a commercial application as you might be thinking

kbin has dedicated up/downvote buttons and counts, just like good old.reddit

well, what good is it when google indexes ANYTHING? even cohost appears high in results nowadays... and dont get me started about how google includes also crap generated by llms... google is on its course of devalueing itself.

the human internet is probably doomed. long live the llm generated internet

oh which gives me an idea: fake users as a service: using llm to generate comments for reddit after the dark

i PRAY for them not to recover. the trouble is, the point with giving subs to IP owners, is extremely likely. though as likely is that reddit will be just bought whole by some ass or another...

i realize this sounds very harsh, but at this point: anything that drives people into federated services is a godsend

XD yeah. you can implement lisp in any language.

whataboutthem?

sure, disregard that one word and suddenly it all falls apart. what is homoiconicity anyways? doesnt matter you say?

it is the feature of the code being represented the same way as the datastructures it manipulates. i know, what a completely unneccessary and unimportant point. now let's all forget this and turn our attention back to the compiler, it wants you to fix those bugs now... back to work.

how is svg connected to opengl?
