Cards also need to take quite a bit of damage before they stop working too.

No. You need to freeze in in an insulated container with only one side exposed so it all freezes in 1 direction. Impurities get pushed to the opposite side and you are left with clear ice.

Its the same kind of arms race that cybersecurity is going through, one side creates defenses, the attackers (all color hats) figure out bypasses and exploits, the defenders patch out the exploits, attackers find new exploits, defenders keep reacting, attackers keep finding new exploits, and the cycle keeps continuing. In an attempt to break the arms race, the defenders are going to turn to legislation to make engaging in the arms race illegal unless you’re certified.

Side note but I’m not making a value judgement on either side, there are defenders protecting bad people and attackers who are justified in their attacks and have released important information out to the public, but protecting your own information from malicious attackers is also super important, stuff like login info to critical infrastructure systems or your financial details so bad actors dont open up a dozen credit cards in your name and destroy your financial reputation needed to survive in this world (fuck credit scores but they are unfortunately part of our reality.)

Same sort of deal with copyright holders vs pirates, copyright holders are trying to protect what is legally theirs, and pirates are trying to bypass that. (Again no moral arguments here, this is just the nature of the conflict). Pirates gain access, copyright holders create more hurdles to the content, pirates gain access again, copyright does the same thing. Eventually they just keep throwing more legislation at the war to make privacy becomes increasingly expensive through the courts. At the end of the day, unlike cybersecurity, this piracy war wouldn’t exist if every piece of media created was commodified for massive profit. Steam is evidence of that.

Its a narrative consulting company based in Canada that right wing chuds think is ruining games by forcing wokeism into games because Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League was a bad game.

Nah you’re good, I have a feeling there is significant overlap between “unsolicited advice dudes” and chuds who screech about Sweet Baby.

Not really even that, they just changed her from a classic femme fatale pose to a literal pinup pose.

Not quite. Mickey Mouse is still a trademark of Disney, but the actual animation of Steamboat Willie is in the public domain, so using the mouse in a way that promotes brand confusion is a no go but using Steamboat Willie is perfectly fine.

You mean the one that is already in use?

Sometimes you plug a new device into the TV that you got after you mounted a TV.

You’re not alone! I’ll gladly listen to him explain the refrigeration cycle again and again and again and how everything is just a worse heart pump.

People usually use tunafish to refer to tuna salad, which is mainly canned tuna, mayonnaise, and a few seasonings, typically served on a sandwich.

It’s a heater to make hot water. As opposed to a space heater, which is a heater used to heat a space and a food heater that is a heater used to heat food to serving temps and a floor heater which is a heater to warm up a floor.

I’m pretty sure Jamez Hoffmann did a video about that.

Good quality teas don’t need sugar. Asian grocery stores are a great source of higher quality teas that aren’t just the commodity grade tea dust that is in your average lipton tea bag.

A super computer isn’t just a single computer, it’s a lot of them networked together to greatly expand the calculation scaling. If you can imagine a huge data center, with thousands of racks of hardware, CPUs, GPUs and RAM chips all dedicated to the tasks of managing network traffic for major websites, its very similar to that but instead of being built to handle all the ins and outs and complexities of managing network traffic, it’s purely dedicated to doing as many calculations for a specific task, such as protein folding as someone else mentioned, or something like Pixar’s Render Farm, which is hundreds of GPUs all networked together dedicated solely to the task of rendering frames.

With how big and complex any given 3d scenes are in any given Pixar film one single GPU might take 10 hours to calculate the light bounces in a scene to render a single frame, assuming a 90 minute run time, that ~130,000 frames, which is potentially 1,300,000 hours (or about 150 years) to complete just 1 full movie render on a single GPU. If you have 2 GPUs working on rendering frames, you’ve now cut that time down to 650,000 hours. Throw 100 GPUs at the render, we’ve cut time to 13,000 hours, or about a year and a half. Pixar is pretty quiet about their numbers but at least according to the Science of Pixar traveling exhibit during the time of Monster University in 2013, their render farm had about 2000 machines with 24,000 processing cores, and it took 2 years worth of rendering time to render that movie out, and I can only imagine how much bigger their render farm has gotten since then.

You’re not building a super computer to be able to play Crysis, you’re building a super computer to do lots and lots and lots of math that might take centuries of calculation to do on a single 16 core machine.

If I pickle them in vinegar, they turn bright pink, if I alkalize them in baking soda, they turn blue, if I cook them slowly in butter they turn a deep brown color.

It depends but technically yes. American cheese is pretty simple, one or multiple cheeses blended with sodium citrate and some milk to create a very smoothly melting cheese. I actually made some myself last night by melting a bunch of very sharp cheddar cheese into some milk and adding a few slices of a decent American cheese to get the sodium citrate. I basically made a really good borderline cheese whiz for the sandwiches I made.

Kraft Singles, (which is what everyone likely has in mind for plastic fake cheese) however don’t contain enough cheese as an ingredient to call the final product an actual cheese, there is a lot of milk powder added in that tips the ratios into cheese product territory.

Stats don’t lie and there are a lot of closeted Republicans on Grindr

He will take accountability at the same moment the Austrian mustache man too accountability for the holocaust. That is, he will go to the grave never taking accountability.

I gotta agree with Samus12345 on this one. This really does look like something conservatives would post unironically kinda like that pride month = demon meme with an ai generated rainbow Satan goat head that makes pride month look so much more badass than they were trying to show.
