Processors have an execution pipeline, so a single command like mov has some number of actions the CPU takes to execute it. CPU designers already have some magic that allows them to execute these out of order as well as other stuff like pre calculating what they think the next command will probably be.

It’s been a decade since my cpu class so I am butchering that explanation, but I think that is what they are proposing messing with

Chocrates ,

I think it is just American working culture. Corporations slowly eroded benefits over the years to where we are today and your salary is pretty much stuck at a 3% cost of living raise if you are lucky. My last job had an HR cap at 10% and my boss “pulled some strings” to get me an 8% bump (with a ton of extra responsibilities) and I still made 20k less than the fucking new hires. I still stayed 2 more years.

Chocrates ,

They are calling attention to their cause without causing real damage, seems well thought out. Not as cringy as the Portland anarchists statements after burning those cop cars

Chocrates ,

Old days!? Aoe2 is still getting expansions!

Chocrates ,

Oh man I bet you can get doom running in the scenario editor. The new devs may even be willing to enhance it somehow so that you could.
Although I have not really played or watched competitive since The Viper left for Facebook.

Chocrates ,

The new AI is astounding. I haven’t played in a while but I never was able to beat the harder difficulties. Even at my sweatiest

Chocrates ,

I’m simping for them but they are hamstrung a bit by the ancient code. They haven’t rewritten it.

Fair criticism though, maybe they should have rebuilt the engine by now.

Chocrates ,

The rewritten ai doesn’t cheat like the original! It’s just amazing!

Chocrates ,

He is, I just haven’t gotten back in to it for no reason.

Putin says Russia and North Korea will help each other if attacked, taking ties to a ‘new level’ (www.cnn.com)

Vladimir Putin said Russia and North Korea have ramped up ties to a “new level,” pledging to help each other if either nation is attacked in a “breakthrough” new partnership announced during the Russian president’s rare visit to the reclusive state....

Chocrates ,

Tl;Dr North Korean soldiers sent to the meat grinder in Ukraine?

Chocrates , (edited )

I am re-listening to the Dan Carlin series on WW1 and I find it pretty implausible that a library with ancient texts would survive to the degree that a soldier could do research in it, regardless of the nonsense

Edit: did 30 seconds of googling. J.r.r Tolkien was in the battle of the somme, so north east France and got tench foot and was recovering for the rest of the war. Austria was part of Austria-Hungary at the time so a member of the central powers. I suppose it could be plausible that after Austria Hungary collapsed (I forget honestly how the war ended) UK troops could have found their way into Austria, but I really still have my doubts

Chocrates ,

Lol that is probably the real answer. The Young’s don’t like the look of it so they are not using it

Alex Jones’ personal assets to be sold to help pay Sandy Hook debt as judge decides Infowars’ fate (apnews.com)

A federal judge on Friday ordered the liquidation of conspiracy theorist Alex Jones ′ personal assets and was still deciding on his company’s separate bankruptcy case. The decision could determine the future of his Infowars media platform, as Jones owes $1.5 billion for his false claims that the Sandy Hook Elementary School...

Chocrates ,

He owes like 1.5 billion i thought, no way his combined assets are close to that.

Chocrates ,

Is this why I can’t get my generic Vyvanse?

Chocrates ,

It’s not that exciting. He does it on purpose, rather than a tantrum.

Outrage over ‘massacre’ in Gaza as Israel rescued four hostages (www.theguardian.com)

At least 274 Palestinians were killed and 698 wounded in Israeli strikes on the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, Gaza’s health ministry said on Sunday. The Israeli military said its forces came under heavy fire during the daytime operation....

Chocrates ,

Those single quotes are doing some work.

Chocrates ,

Even if Dems had both houses it needs 2/3rds of the Senate to remove her. That will never happen. Even if we made Puerto Rico and Washington DC a state that won’t happen

Chocrates ,

It would probably take more than a month to show signs of malnutrition though, assuming OP is eating reasonably healthy currently.

Chocrates ,

True, but people can go on extended fasts without malnutrition concerns. Usually those are in overweight folks though (at least what I am thinking of) so maybe they have deeper reserves.

Chocrates ,

Cannon seems bad at her job. Not even just the blatant helping of trump, but she seems to not understand how to be a judge for other stuff.

Chocrates ,

True but it is sad that the only left leaning party (that can get elected at least) still has members and a president ok with what they are seeing.

For sure better than literal Nazis but we need to do better.

Chocrates ,

For earth and the surviving creatures on it this is probably great news, but this is probably going to be a problem for humans in the short term. Plastic is this magic material that is immune to degradation and microbes, now that is no longer the case.

Ultimately that will be a good thing, but think about sanitized plastic medical equipment, now it can slowly be eaten up by microbes that we didn’t have to worry about before.

Chocrates ,

It seems complicated.

  • He had a suspended license
  • He paid off his license back in 2022
  • Friend of The Court was supposed to send the state the info so his license could be reinstated but it hadn’t

I don’t recall why he was in court in the first place but during that time he was driving on a suspended license while video calling into court.

Chocrates ,

I hope Knowledge Fight did an episode on this!

Chocrates ,

Well damn that is depressing. Humans are real shit about our garbage.

Texas professors want to use abortion ban to punish students for "consensual sexual intercourse" (www.salon.com)

“Along with their anger about abortion, they grouse about not being allowed to punish students “for being homosexual or transgender.” They also argue they should be able to penalize teaching assistants for “cross-dressing,” by which they appear to mean allowing trans women to wear skirts.”

Chocrates ,

I am so sad that this is burned into my brain.

Chocrates ,

I swear a scientist in Russia already domesticated foxes once.

Chocrates ,

Yeah I think so!

Chocrates ,

Dandelion greens are really good for you. Plus as others have noted monoculture lawns are pretty bad for the environment. Better than impermeable surfaces but still not great.

Chocrates ,

I somehow completely missed how jacked she is at first

Chocrates ,

Of course they want no fault divorce gone. They want their spouses stuck with them and unable to flee from the insanity.

Chocrates ,

Do you have reason to think they are lieing? Edit: other than the rack their lips are moving.

Chocrates ,

Means this is ai garbage?

Chocrates ,

At least he can only appeal all the at to the State Supreme Court so the fedsoc six can’t fuck with it.

Chocrates ,

Each count has a maximum of 1 - 4 years of prison apparently. Usually that is served concurrently, but he is technically a first time felon so I doubt he is going to do any time at all.

Chocrates ,

Npr reporter said that each count has a maximum of 1 - 4 years in jail but usually served concurrently and the judge apparently already made a comment about jail time is not a guarantee or something. I am betting another useless fine and maybe some probation.

Chocrates ,

Absolutely fair. I am just shitting out what other pundits have said. We really won’t know what happens until July 11th.

Chocrates ,

Haha, or dementia. I don’t wish that suffering on anyone, id rather he just shut his mouth and stop being a hateful shit.

Chocrates ,

Lolol I didn’t think of that. Imagine Trump trying to go to Russia or something as president and his PO says he can’t leave the country.

Do you know if he starts his sentence while he appeals or is he gonna get off for the next year or so

Chocrates ,

Is this a “normal” thing in Parliamentary countries or is this a fascist power grab?

Chocrates ,

The term “dissolve the parliament” is foreign to my American ears. I didn’t realize it just meant time for elections.

Chocrates ,

Has anyone graphed the data to see if it has been going down and what not? Any civilian death should be important and Obama doesn’t get a pass because he was a Democrat.

I’m just curious how it changed through Bush to Obama to Trump to Biden. It also can’t be taken in a vacuum since the US changed the way they “waged war”, even though I disagree with being able to call it a war since “terror” is not a peer state.

Chocrates ,

I lived through it and completely forgot.

Chocrates ,

That’s not true. They have put mouse exercise wheels in the wild and mice use them for fun. Mice love to run.

There was actually an interesting “exercise drug” line of research seeing if they could make a pharmaceutical that would make exercise fun. Wonder if that went anywhere.

Chocrates ,

Yeah I know about that one! But in that same article (assuming we are thinking about the same one) they interviewed another scientist working on the other kind of drug.

Last I checked a less tumour inducing version of the drug was going into phase 1 clinical trials for muscular dystrophyin the last year or so

Chocrates ,

I would personally love an exercise pill. I have pretty severe depression so getting into an exercise routine is a huge struggle. If I could take some medication that helped I would be so happy.

Chocrates ,

I agree with you, but we have been doing it for 20 years in Afghanistan and with America’s imperialist history we have been shitheads for our entire existence (not even touching on chattel slavery). America was never great but maybe we can be better if we find a way to hold our politicians accountable.

Chocrates ,

I think people are just venting. We all feel helpless.
I have no idea what to do that would actually help the people of Gaza. Biden obviously doesn’t care. The states brutalized the kids (again). Any money we try to donate will be interdicted becuase “terrorism”.
