Theoretically, the development could allow a submarine to travel faster than the speed of sound without producing the mechanical noise vibration that usually gives away its location, according to the researchers.

LOL, imagine a submarine traveling at Mach 1 under water… :)

That’s 1224 km per hour ( or 761 miles per hour)

Thanks, didn’t think about that.

Maybe they can make torpedoes using the same tech…

You probably gave it severe brain damage though. Felt bad reading this since I love animals…

Those sounds like American prices…

Would be maybe 50 dollars in western Europe. Just a guess.

You are right actually, I should stop bringing it up. Doesn’t help anyone really.

Western Europe is quite different from a third world country. :)

I think it was more a reaction to bringing it up when someone is already feeling sad over his pet being hurt.

Everyone probably agrees with the facts but it was just bad style to bring it up in that moment.

Glad I’m not alone… I can glance an article in 30 seconds, so I fail to see how video is a better format for this.

For udemy teachings, yes, video is great. But it’s way overused for everything.

Almost every problem in the world would be dealt with meaningfully if we outlawed billionaires.

Everytime I look at small problems or big global problems, if you follow the money trail, it all leads to some billionaire who is either working towards increasing their wealth or protecting their wealth from decreasing....

@1984@lemmy.today avatar

I think billionaries are a symptom, not a cause, of the disease.

Some people are born in positions where they already have massive wealth and they grow up with connections to make it larger and larger. So that’s what they do.

But the real issue is the system that keeps everyone in debt for life. Many would like to stop working and enjoy their lives instead. They don’t need much. Just don’t want to work and get by with decent living standard.

I bought it but haven’t played it nearly at all. Just lost interest in it when everything felt slow.

It will probably become quite popular in a few years when better hardware is default.

@1984@lemmy.today avatar

No I bought it after the reviews were bad, but figured they would quickly fix the issues. They did not.

I don’t know, maybe nice to try, but I don’t have any issues playing games on the ordinary kernel…

Nvidia is the reason why most people have issues.

In tech jobs where you write code, everyone uses Linux or mac. :)

First thing I did was look at a proper benchmark: www.phoronix.com/review/cachyos-linux-perf/1

With the exception of the gaming benchmarks coming out well on CachyOS, in many of the workloads CachyOS didn’t demonstrate any measurably better performance over fellow Arch Linux derivative EndeavourOS.

So it’s great for gamers who want to squeeze extra performance from their hardware.

I really wish they would stop using Discord. None of the content is even visible on a search engine. It’s a closed door system.

One of these doesn’t sell your private, personal data, which one?

Naah just capitalism. To America, money is the meaning of life. More money trumps everything.

Aha… Didn’t get that. Thanks. :)

I would just say thanks for your opinion, but I will do this the way I want to.

Is there a more politically and ideologically diverse alternative for Lemmy?

I know the real answer is reddit but I really don’t want to go back now that I’ve already grown used to life without it. I was hoping for Lemmy to be a viable substitute but it isn’t. I can see how this place is wonderful for the certain type of person but that person is not me. My experience during the past 6+ months has...

I think some mods are a bit too happy to use their mod tools. I’ve seen opinions get moderated away because they anger people, not because they are wrong.

A mature society is able to discuss things without banning opinions they don’t agree with.

1984 ,
@1984@lemmy.today avatar

Most users actually wants Lemmy.world to have harch moderation, because they don’t want to be exposed to things that upset them.

I think it’s always like that. The big popular platforms are always heavily moderated. And most people are happy with it.

There are always smaller alternatives for others who feel comfortable reading things we don’t agree with sometimes in exchange for nobody controlling the feed.

I’m a bit in between. There is a Swedish site called Flashback that is really good for finding out what actually happens. The media often gives one view and leaves out many details, and it’s very fun to go read what actually happened on flashback afterwards.

I tried the Meta Quest 2 and felt it was pretty awesome but I felt sick within minutes of using it.

So something like that without the sick would be revolutionary.

Nice, new chance to try a new distro :)

Mint is a really good choice actually. Glad you didn’t pick Ubuntu. :)

It’s a good buying opportunity now. I don’t like Musk or Teslas but I will buy his stock to make me money. :)

I don’t know, I feel like it has support on these levels. But we will see…

Wouldn’t you? That job seems to be low pay with tons of hours. If you want to fix that, raise salaries and reduce hours so nurses can feel like human beings.

Yup but that’s fine, they are full of crap anyway. :)

I stopped watching in the first episode when the tiny girl beat up a muscular huge man.

Felt like avengers but she is supposed to be a normal girl right? I felt it was so dumb.

Yeah I don’t know the fallout backstory at all, but A+ doesn’t change things like physics.

1984 ,
@1984@lemmy.today avatar

Yeah I’ve heard about that actually :) Funny…

@1984@lemmy.today avatar

Really? So interesting to me that someone would think she could even hurt the guy.

1984 ,
@1984@lemmy.today avatar

Well I guess, if the TV show is supposed to be like a game, then at least I understand why she is overpowered.

1984 ,
@1984@lemmy.today avatar

I mean, as the previous posters have said, if this is supposed to be like a game, then sure. Anything is possible. But if it was reality, she would have no chance against that guy.

1984 ,
@1984@lemmy.today avatar

I removed the smiley since I didn’t intend it to be condescending. But I’m 100% certain that guy would knock that girl out in a second. It wasn’t just “a man”, it was a fit fighter man with tons of muscles.

But like I said, if it’s a game, there is no real physics so anything is possible.

1984 ,
@1984@lemmy.today avatar

Yeah it’s fine. Let’s move on to other topics. :)

1984 ,
@1984@lemmy.today avatar

Yeah makes sense. I don’t know the backstory at all so in that light, it makes sense. Guess they wanted to cast some sexy actor rather than someone who looks the part.

At my job we are looking to use a hardened ubuntu image but not sure what to pick. Got any recommendations?

1984 ,
@1984@lemmy.today avatar

We are using an AMI on aws for Ubuntu right now. We need to stick to Ubuntu also since our product is tested on that distribution and so on. What about hardened Ubuntus?

1984 ,
@1984@lemmy.today avatar

I predict we won’t be able to properly express how someone looks in 5 years, because all words will be offensive.

White/Black/Asian. Fat. Bald. Skinny. Women/Man. Probably all offensive soon.

1984 ,
@1984@lemmy.today avatar

Yeah true. I usually hear about noise complaints from people in apartments. It should be a lot more uncommon in houses.

Just bad luck I guess.

Never tried passing the GPU through. You use virtualbox or something else?
