Sputnik 1 was the first artifical satellite put into orbit. Based on how you define “first rocket in space”, it might have been Nazi Germany with their V2 rockets

Quite significant in theory, DDR3 maxes out at about 2000 MT/s (mega transfer per seconds) while DDR5 can go above 8000 MT/s, so about 3x-4x. I don’t know if this metric already includes the capability of DDR ram to access multiple data in a clock cycle, but I think it does. If it doesn’t, the difference is even higher.
Of course in practice the difference is not as remarkable, but still noticeable. Still, DDR3 is perfectly usable with a decent processor (light gaming and professional software), my main rig is a 4th generation i7 and I have no intention of upgrading for the foreseeable future.
Extra: still use ddr3 and watch the world burn, but slower
Can’t save them all
Usually Trigger Warning, to warn someone more sensitive to triggers to be careful. Don’t really know which trigger would be in this email?
I enjoyed it a lot and honestly, while I could see the massive influence it had on other things, and even being impressed by the distopian technology that would seem really scifi at the time, but is normal today, I think there are some aspects that have been explored further, but not at the same detail.
For example, doublethink and newspeak as a concept exists in other media, but I’ve never seen it explored to such details than in the book.
But also remember to clear cookies and cache when closing the browser, so all the collecting ia useless
Yeah, but carrier locked phones are illegal in many places (and always have been), aren’t they still allowed in the US?
Especially on an M1. In a different architecture you don’t have Apple’s translation layer, so you’re stuck with ARM software only
You might not like AI for what it stands or for the negative impact it has on the world, but you can’t deny that LLM like we have today are a marvel of technology, an incredibly complex technology that would have felt science fiction just a decade ago.
Unfortunately that was common even before LLMs. I’ve ancountered at least half a dozen websites that mirror Stack Overflow questions, along with answers and comments, in a blog-like presentation.
I think Skibidi Toilet is way healthier than mainstream comedic tropes like “fat guy funny” or “gay guy effemminate” that were soooo common in mainstream TV and now are (luckily) fading out.
Brainrot is equally stupid but more self-concious and more honest.
And to be honest, the first time I stumbled upon Skibidi Toilet, I thought it was a 2012 Garry’s mod stupid video, game me the same vibe.
However, Ai-slop brainrot (brainslop? Sloprot?), that feels worse. I know I’m pulling out the “kids these days card”, but what really changed is the media: TikTok and all the Tok-likes+AI are becoming better and better at rotting your brain. I don’t know if they really worsen the attention span, even temporarily, but I’m convinced it reduces people’s happiness and is the closest we can get to mind control as the consiracists intend it to be
If the situation turns out where Trump is falling (unlikely but not impossible), you accept a plea deal with current Trump allies that will wait for him to look away and throw him under the bus, so someone else will take power.
That works under the assumption that Trump falls and crumbles
We really live in crazy times
With the amount of work they are putting in compatibility layers technology, I wouldn’t be surprised if you could run The Witcher 3 on it out of the box.
At least they tried to hide it, now they don’t.
As for the cold war, if you consider the conflict USA-USSR they clearly won: Russia was, at least at some point, equally powerful to the USA technologically and militarly, what one did first, the other caught up pretty quickly, then the Soviet Government collapsed for various reasons, and they couldn’t catch up, now the USA is arguably the most technologically advanced country in the world, in many aspects.
China is catching up, but they are in no way equally capable.
I know, what I’m saying is that latte = milk in italian, so if you ordered latte in Italy you would get a glass of milk, that’s what I mean by mistranslation
That’s not the problem though. Even if you have no other OS installed, windows still refuses to install on external HDDs.
