How's the noise level? I'm sure I could cope with a side one. Big bendy tubes will do the job fine. Lack of sliding windows is the bigger problem

Right well... turns out 3D printers work like shit in the heat but there's no AC left in stock. Any idea which models are good for modding?

There's basically no dual pipe portable A/Cs here as far as I can tell :(

AVERAGE ANNUAL temperature of Europe is going up, not the daily temperature.

Speaking from London in the middle of the second heat wave of the year, daily temperatures are going up too!

do these substances bring out a reality not normally visable

No.

But he ded!

I mean they kinda did since they're talking about Exaflops not exanops.

It's LineShine which is apparently ARM based.

Sounds broadly similar to Fukagu in general high level design: ARM CPUs driving very fast very wide on-cpu SIMD units. Sounds like they have a mix of HBM and DDR which is interesting. Also given the reported numbers (peak vs max), I'd expect their custom interconnect is on die like the Tofu one.

It looks generally pretty good.

No and, just widgets. Anything else could happen elsewhere.

That's nonsensical. Just because it can and does also happen elsewhere doesn't make it not exist. Someone else could build widgets too. Society doesn't work if people aren't doing stuff so having people employed as of today is a benefit.

You act like people need permission to create and build.

People absolutely 100% do without a doubt need permission to have limited liability protection.

There is no bargain here, just a legal framework for people to work together for some purpose.

Absolutely false. People worked together for millennia without such frameworks in place.

It is not a gift from society; it is a protected right.

It's not a gift, it's a bargain. It's a "protected" right in as much as there is a law granting that right.

You can start a business where people would pay you for a kick in the face. Probably won't get any customers, but you can do it.

You don't really understand much about different kinds of business, do you?

You have a right to freedom of association. You have a right to make contracts.

Yes, and? You can do that just as well with and without extra protection granted to you by society.

You have a right to start almost any kind of business you want (some restrictions may apply). You have a right to use your property as you see fit. Government doesn't give you these things; it protects them.

Yes, and? You can do that just as well with and without extra protection granted to you by society.

Limited liability protection is not a natural right. Why should society give you that extraordinary gift if you give little in return?
 

Yeah, and the benefit to society comes in the form of the widgets it so desperately needs.

And also the people it employs and the effect to the greater economy. All of those things are benefits to society, for which people are prepared to give the directors and shareholders some level of protection, as part of a bargain. If the factory provides less benefit, why should the people taking the profit get the same level of protection?

Um you do realise that Monday Night Rehabilitation (i.e. executing people with monster trucks in a TV spectacle with the president often in attendance) was a satire based on the words people use with the current justice system, i.e. "rehabilitation" and how it actually treats people.

I have to ask did you actually think I was literally proposing taking something from idiocracy and implementing it in real life?

The purpose of a factory is not to provide jobs.

It's intended to made widgets that can then be sold at a profit.

It's not a social welfare program.

Only kinda. Let me remind you there is no natural right to limited liability companies. They exist purely (in principle) for the benefit of society.

Yeah, there is a stigma, that if anyone deciding to commit crimes, might possibly give a little thought to the future before deciding that committing a crime is a good idea.

It's kinda like the story of would you want your daughter marrying a man who just got out of jail after killing his first wife? There is a value to having impulse control, and looking beyond what they want to do right now.

There are all manner of narratives - I guess I have one too. There are narratives that if everyone has money, free health care, and society accepted them, there would be no crime. That society forces people to perform criminal acts. It is similar to the idea that society causes insanity.

Well. we learn over time. Before Herbert Needleman, the dangers of lead poisoning were known, but it's effects upon people, who from childhood were exposed, and they ended up being violent criminals - that was fairly new, and compelling enough to knock some sense into people.

Another case I know personally, a friend had adopted a young boy, who was troubled, and the thought was a better environment would eliminate those issues. I liked the kid. Most of the time, he was great. Outgoing, friendly, smart. But he was still getting into trouble. I noticed that it was three months behaving, then a short period of bad. I mentioned it, but everyone thought that was 100 percent coincidence. Eventually they figured out I was right, by that time, he'd committed some serious crimes.

Some sort of chemical imbalance? That was my guess. Point is, yeah, we're going to find out more reasons as time goes on. The question is what makes the people in your example not cooperate?

People should not ever decide that since "the man" got away with something, so it is perfectly alright to do the same things. If that is the case, they deserve the punishment, even if "the man" is not. That. is the most masochistic example to whataboutism on their part.

All they need is to fully implement Monday Night Rehabilitation. Then the recidivism rate will drop to zero.
