Topics that do not have much to do with each other at the moment.

An exception is the Zeropatch technique where they dynamically update machine code of the OS in memory on the fly for folks who can't tolerate downtime.

It's certainly not common on unix systems.

Or an IoT device running a 2.6 kernel that is never going to be updated. :)

Did Dolby break any countermeasures of Snap's copyrighted code in what would appear to be a significant reverse-engineering effort to make this determination?

Or do they only have a suspicion?

This scenario reminds me of the SCO lawsuits when the progress of technology made that company obsolete.

Zero crashes on my Macs since 10 years or more.
5 blue screens on my Windows 11 acer last 28months.
Minimum 10 times "windows discovered a problem, and needs to reboot now", often by two or even three reboots in a row.
Not even telling what the problem is ... might be ... could be.

How do you come to 10x when you have on one side zero crashes and on the other side 2 dozens, depending how you count ... well, I guess someone rounded zero up to 2, or something.

Well, when I read it was all pounds, in Europe, I wondered how much that is in kg. As I am lazy, I just divided by 2 ... but the result was a kind of odd number, so I lost a few bits of accuracy.

Then, considering that this is at the Swizz and German border, I wondered if they used forced workers, like the many refugees to get the container on the truck!

I am relieved to read, they used a crane!!

Now I only have to figure what exactly -half a thousand degrees Fahrenheit is. I guess I can google for an AI to find that out.

They created fusion.
At least they claim so.
It is clear from the article.

And they are not the only ones. We have plenty of definitely non scam fusion companies that do fusion.

The question is will it once be commercial viable.

NASA tested solar sails just recently: https://www.nasa.gov/smallspac...

Well, the JPL has the Vasimr drive, a plasma engine.
They are working to "upgrade" it into a fusion drive.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

However regarding the upgrade to fusion they are pretty silent since a decade!!

Some key researchers founded their own company: Ad AStra.

The key researcher a female Ph. whose name I forgot, vanished from publications.

So no idea what is going on there. No idea actually if JPL is still involved.

Fact is they have a working - pretty nicely working - plasma engine. Since over 20 years. I guess there is again some big industry in the US who wants that project to fail. For what ever reason.

The magnetic field is not really a problem.

The people who did more math on it, I read around 2010 about some scientests/sf authors, figured the vacuum outside of solar systems symply is not dense enough in hydrogene.

It might - just slightly - be possible to have a drive based on fusion and hydrogen capture inside of a solar system. Question would be if that is practical or if it would not just make more sense, to have refueling based ice from comets etc.

That globe had nothing to do with fusion ...

Count the number of "former" intelligence officials on his company's board.

Then search for the many photos of him mouth-kissing his father and son (RIP).

They use both carrots and sticks to control compromised people.

I took mine apart and there were two separate display modules for the 4K screen with ribbon cables I didn't recognize so I just put it back together and stuck in an HDMI streaming stick flashed to LineageOS.

I got one around 2008. They were the best of the non-premium 1080p HDMI screens at the time.

The one I got had slightly better test review scores on display quality than the LG that year. The Sony was 20% better for 3x the price.

It lasted about twelve years and by then a bigger 4K with much brighter colors was half the cost in nominal dollars, so probably 1/4 the cost in real terms.

And by then cheap flashable streaming sticks were available as was pihole and fairly easy outbound NAT rewriting rules to keep the beasts contained.

If you can not prompt an AI to give you code for a trivial problem, then you are in need for help.
Regardless if you need it, or want it.

Up to you.

If you "discuss" with an AI, how you did the last 5 posts with me: no wonder you get nothing done.
