I think youtubes capriciousness and lack of transparency suck. But, there is a difference in watching some flat earth videos or believing in aliens vs promoting taking a drug into your body.

I was not referring to the 8MB image. I was referring to the size if all 1.3 billion stars were rendered. The image would be some % ofer 1.3 gigapixels. Rather large.

It is rendered from the data, which is available in the other links. You want to render all the stars, grab the data and do so. For one, I am glad the image was not any larger - I do not need my browser to choke on that.

Coal is a dead tech. Any government propping is just that, short-term gain and propping up a dying industry. It is happening whether you like it or not. Oil is next and it will go out harder than coal.

A government should not be squandering treasure to hold up dying companies and technology. It should be using that treasure (your tax dollars) to prepare. Things like retraining workers to different industries, infrastructure improvements for towns affected to attract other business, etc. Not doing that means that the government is really only looking out for a few wallets now, not you or your family in the future.

Or .. bring a decent tablet or chromebook. I have a gen 2 nexus 7 that I take for this. Has all my personal stuff, can get to work email if needed, great for personal banking/media/whatever in a hotel or airport. Small size, no potential for ANY exploit like an SOC that shares some other piece of HW and may have an unknown exploit leading back to storage on the host machine.

I like EEVblog. Have never seen this old Tony. Will have to see what it is about.

BigClive is awesome! I don't watch it as much though as his videos tend to be longer than I want in a single session.

There are great channels on youtube. The platform itself sucks, but if you want exposure and/or revenue it is the main contender.

Some good channels:

Tested
AVE
Cody'sLab
Applied Science
Practical Engineering
Scott Manley
ElectroBOOM
Periodic Videos
NileRed
NurdRage

Yes to all of the above, but asking permission and then using the viewers computing resources for whatever makes the most sense for the content distributor is an interesting model. Does not have to be coinhive, also if you block the script, you could be blocked from the site, just as forbes and others do with adblockers now.

TFA, not TFS states 25-30ms. If you have questions, maybe take time to actually read rather than shitpost. But, this is /.

Did you read? These will be (extremely) LEO satellites as opposed to geo-sync ones. That means not 32000 KM up, but much closer. The biggest contributer to latency is the distance, so instead of 250-300ms up and another 250-300ms back to ground, you get 5-15ms one way. Total bandwidth is of more interest/concern to me.

Well if SETI needs them, GPU must actually mean gray-skin processing unit.
