I don’t know about unbound so I can’t really compare… OpenNic is not run by for-profit corporations, which I think is a good thing.

Opennic should be the default DNS of everybody!

I would love to self host a real debrid service where i can control what i pre-download using the “my library” feature, something similar to the *arr suite but only using the stremio interface.

And this is why tenure exists!

All the vegans and vegetarians I’ve met in real life were chill dudes and dudettes. One was an engineer and semi-pro skateboarder that was always making people feel good and happy. Another one was a solid rock climber always smiling.

I know more annoying people complaining about vegans, always grumpy and being proud of always eating meat. I also know this cool swing dance instructor girl who only eats meat, so it’s also good.

Here as well security forces tend to act as violent bullies while facing no consequences… I think we have a four letter acronym for that as well.

Mines are designated war crimes by the Geneva convention Ottawa treaty because of the indiscriminate killing. Many years ago, good human right lawyers could have extended that to drones… (Source: i had close friends in international law)

But i feel like now the tides have changed and tech companies have influenced the general population to think that ai is good enough to prevent “indiscriminate” killing.

Edit: fixed the treaty name, thanks!

Is it actually ethically acceptable to control distribution of something that naturally shares itself?

Before computers, it actually required some energy to copy the content of a book. With computers now, the action of reading an ebook will actually copy it from the hard drive to the ram. If your book is on the cloud, there’s even more copying going on. It actually takes more efforts to erase temporary copies (ex: from local cache)!

Digital copying is not the same as physical copying.

My colleague built an ultrasound walking stick for his wife, but can’t even give units to the local sight-impaired community organization due to regulations… He’s given up on getting his design certified.

If i wanted to jump through complicated hoops, I’d try paid streaming services!

Instead of gold versions, rich people will get inconel-pannel cybertrucks!

Thanks for the news, you made my day! I have an 8 which still works very well. I was on the verge of getting a 10 while I still could…

Discontinued after the 10 🥲

When the completed manuscript exceeded 600,000 words, Cerf asked Rand to make cuts, but backed off when she compared the idea to cutting the Bible.

Wow, I didn’t know this author, and it seems I wasn’t missing much.

It’s been many years since I was invited with particle physics, so it’s a bit muddled in my memory… i could be wrong on the details here. It could be the CP symmetry instead of the CPT symmetry.

It’s not that positrons go back in time, but more like “if an electron went backwards in time, it would look exactly like a position”. The Feynman diagram of an electron and position annihilaton is the same as that of an electron bouncing on photons, expect the angle is rotated such that the electron bounces backwards in time.

Antimatter is not just matter with an opposite charge. It’s matter with every type of charges (electromagnetic, strong and weak nuclear charges) inverted, as well as the “parity”, that is the relative direction of its spin compared to its propagation direction, are all inverted.

If you look for “CPT symmetry”, you’ll find better explanations than this.

It basically boils down to this: invert the flow of time, and every particle will look like antimatter, while antimatter will look like normal matter.

It would have been very likely that antimatter moved backwards in gravity of it was normal matter moving backwards in time!

It has a positive mass, and in every other way it acts just like normal matter going backwards in time (cpt inversion).

If, despite its positive mass, it was pushed back by gravity, then it would have given even more weight to the theory that antimatter is just matter moving backwards.

Since gravity is such a wonky interaction, I’m not even sure this result disproves the time-reversal theory entirely!

I asked chat GPT and it couldn’t understand which company you were talking about. I think you will be safe for now! 😏

I’d say: look at populist leaders… It’s easy to exploit people without them realizing it.
