1969: all the computer parts are large so it requires a full room
2016: everything got so miniaturized that it fits on a desk
2050: we draw so much power that we need a whole room just for the cooling

Yeah they uploaded my brain data to a 4738129473PB anti-matter drive after humanity was finally able to get into contact with God and he was kind enough to give my soul back. I'm a 100% sentient robot

Do you think that we would be able to store an entire brain into a drive or a couple drives first

#

Or would humanity destroy itself first

You'd never do that though right

Paste

rancid juniper
idle nexus
#

I've never used paste on that CPU lol

#

or on this motherboard

#

& it took metal polish to get off

mortal grail
#

But did you use paste while working on it tho

idle nexus
#

never lo0l

mortal grail
#

Oh o0k

idle nexus
#

weird stuff ngl

mortal grail
#

Paste can get really stuck to pads tho tbf lol

idle nexus
#

it's possible for sure. I just dunno how it got there

mortal grail
#

Like you were cleaning off another cpu of it or maybe a gpu, some got on the fingers, then onto the cpu

lone mango
#

Yeah turns out that was contact fretting

mortal grail
#

Fretting?

#

Like it's worried it'll see gold pins again?

lone mango
#

Yeah I forgot who posted the forum

mortal grail
#

Tbh I've never heard of this before

lone mango
#

Basically this guy was overclocking his cpu for a while and started having instability. when he took it off it was like that picture but across the entire package

lone mango
mortal grail
#

Whoa

#

I'll remember that

craggy shoal
#

"huh I wonder where this random instability came from"

lone mango

Found it

#

This was so crazy to me

#

I understand now but when I first saw this I really thought this was not possible

Now after reading that I get it

sorry to hear that

what did you order anyway

rigid sinew
#

i dont want u to judge me

misty sparrow
#

i don't judge

rigid sinew
#

false but i got a #3 large plain, but extra pickles, a dr pepper cause its the best soda ever created and sweet and sour sauce

misty sparrow
#

whats the #3 on the menu again?

#

double quarter pounder?

#

if so i have to say that's a pretty good combo, plain with extra pickles + sweet n sour sauce

#

you get to pour the sweet n sour sauce onto the burger for the taste to be more noticeable

#

it's a lot better than what i got from them the other day

rigid sinew
#

whatd you get ?

misty sparrow
#

you know how they're selling those boo buckets again? well, i got one of those for a friend. the hamburger meal

#

i also got that $5 mcdouble meal for myself

#

the one in the boo bucket happy meal was a single patty, the mcdouble is double (obviously)

so i took them both out to compare sizes, both were exactly the same size as the palm of my hand and you could barely tell that one had two patties

#

it was really that thin

My mouse is working but the tracking isn't, I've restarted my laptop like twice and the firmware is updated, is there a fix? 😞 (Razer basilisk v3 pro btw)

When I started school we were using windows XP and when I graduated they were using windows 10 but didn't upgrade the hardware

wary fjord

Hmm

misty sparrow
wary fjord
#

My first os is win7

#

But i revert to xp

#

Or downgrade

misty sparrow
#

why?

wary fjord
#

Moms friend says its better to downgrade to gain more fps xD back in 2006

#

Well the ram usage is like 200mb

#

And u have more to spare on the games

#
  • the themes on xp are popular back in aday
chrome mirage

Apparently windows 10 gets better fps than 11 because 11 is more demanding

Oh oh about trackpad. Sometimes there's a hardware button (maybe "Fn (function) + one of the F keys to disable/enable trackpad)

#

Also, some trackpad have a little spot near or on them that enable/disable. I know it seems counterintuitive but you should see my dad try to type on a laptop lol

What laptop?

it sounds like the razer external mouse isnt working, not the trackpad itself

.... it manifests ya know, when u objectively invent something for urself, like, motorola actually got back to me the other day for feedback regarding an up to 4 screen oled phone, but some things i regard as not mine...(not in my inventive stature anyway)[im more like, i guess brand personable, but it's definately what multitaskijg i respect such as streaming, than a giant* monitor phone.].. (and that i want to see it happen with out any delay)

speaking of new~ relentless feedback, another online entry of which;

10P 18E 36T
2.8Ghz-E 4.8Ghz-P(Boost) 3.2Ghz... ECC Capable but the 296k is probably a very different architecture as apposed to, thread and cache room may be able to minimize because of the speeds i mentioned, or basically gauge the threads or virtual cores at a smaller transistor scale, the threads would basically underperform for how small they are..., where as the regular cores are normal... this way the 5090 can expand in only one generation.... although the 4090 has taken up two(for the most part)

yeah that would be a better solution

# remote geode ah yeah

........i mean, if you want a booklet between two phones, thats a different story, .... not only is having the same sim card not going to do anything but send notifications at the same time, you cant project a video... and even like looking at another device through a stream isn't going to do it.... i can altneratively develop a software with chat gpt to sync three to four phones, but im really incredibly lazy.... and you'll have a latency, which is why for games u need a purpose built phone... for movies not so much.... (this all just extension-ism-ness)

I think I'm getting a Pixel 4a tomorrow as a backup to my Note 20 5G

the thing of it is, ur not going to want to connect with the theif in this instance haha

Yeah, I just tried to explore some family plans with my provider for that reason

astral inlet
#

(doubke edged)if anything its only a matter of time when say google eats another phone for security reasons(this change irreversable) but again, its also a lot of power in your hands, not too dissimilar to blocking somebody, its a disturbance(for the theif, psychologically) you want to be in a safe place before you do it ya know? its weird

yall know where i can buy uranium, its sold out on amazon.

young matrix
#

*NOT ENRICHED

mortal grail
#

Have u tried temu

sinful blade
young matrix
#

U can find actual uranium on ebay tho

ripe field
mortal grail
#

Have you looked on etsy

#

LOL

ripe field
#

oopsy

ripe field
mortal grail
#

Etsy might have custom uranium

#

Uranium resin keycaps for ur keyboards

chrome mirage

mortal grail
#

Isn't that just uranite

young matrix
mortal grail
#

Uraninite

young matrix
#

How we feelin about this list

mortal grail
#

I was close

mortal grail
young matrix
#

Where should i improve

wary fjord
#

jawbreaker candy but has uranium on the middle..

ripe field
#

and contains higher levels of radiation

mortal grail
mortal grail
#

Uraninite is an ore, UO²

young matrix
mortal grail
#

Am5 is just really hard to justify rn with Intel's aggressive pricing

#

We got like a 30% fps bump from switching over basically

mortal grail
#

Any form of material above lead is not stable and thus considered radioactive as the nuclear forces cause an unstable valency/valencies beyond Pb

#

So radiation is emitted over many thousands of years until that material eventually becomes lead

ripe field
#

well it does have a pretty high concentration of uranium

#

comparably to normal ore

mortal grail
#

Ya but it's all uraninite

#

It's just of what concentration you'd be concerned about

#

When things become ionized or partially radioactive, they can develop strains of uraninite

#

There's a word for it

ripe field
#

oh

mortal grail
#

Pitchblende

#

It's oxidised uranium particles

#

So your concentration could either be anywhere from like, super pure, low bonding adjacent particles, to something highly complex

#

So rather than straight oxidised, perhaps something more like a metal powder substance rather than crystal

#

Ores and the way they're formed in the earth are very complex, so when you refer to ore, there can be many branches of compositions

#

Call it a context of purity

#

To which that is then refined into yellowcake or otherwise, and then shipped out to be used in industry

ripe field
#

well

#

thats quite a lot to take in

mortal grail
#

I took a lot of interest in this in school myself lol

ripe field
#

well it seems

#

you are pretty well knowledge on the topic

mortal grail
#

Well the best topics about it would be either processing or power use

#

Creating yellowcake is very complex

#

But also using yellowcake or rods for power is additionally very complex

#

Dunno what you plan to work on here but as far as what's cool about uranium those are the topical ones

ripe field
mortal grail
#

There you go, two things that use it right there

#

Lol

ripe field
#

lmao

mortal grail
#

Medical research facilities is another

#

There's 3

#

There are often nuclear reactors in medical research facilities, it's a whole field of science

#

Chemotherapy is another that is brought about by this

ripe field
#

well ik some scanners be radioactive

mortal grail
#

Nuclear radiation treatment

#

Ya

ripe field
#

never knew whole ass reactors would be inside of them

mortal grail
#

Chemo is a radioactive treatment for cancer

ripe field
#

oh yeah i have heard about it

mortal grail
#

They blast your body with radiation to kill off cancer cells to avoid metastasizing

ripe field
#

metastasizing?

mortal grail
#

That refers to the stage where cancer turns rather critical

ripe field
#

oh ok

mortal grail
#

Doctors fight with chemo to avoid cancers reaching that point

#

Do check everything I say by the way, I don't work in any of this

#

Taking my second hand knowledge here lol

ripe field
#

well its more interesting to hear

#

not actively taking notes lol

mortal grail
#

You could even talk about nuclear submarines

#

Literal reactors inside underwater boats lol

ripe field
#

infinite range

#

or atleast fuel for years

#

solves the problem of subs resurfacing

#

to get more air for their engines

#

well atleast more frequently

mortal grail
#

There you go

#

That's a great topic

ripe field
#

well it could be

mortal grail
#

You probably have enough topics there to talk about it for like 10 pages now lol

ripe field
#

all i need now is real uranium so i can impress everyone

worthy meteor
#

can usually get depleted uranium

worthy meteor
mortal grail
#

Also 1111: I tried getting the other kind once, we don't talk about that

worthy meteor
#

lol

mortal grail
#

I got put on a list and they gave me a free watch

worthy meteor
#

hey all you have to do to enrich uranium is uh

#

a couple centrifuges

#

that are totally not expensive and hard to maintain

mortal grail
#

Just ask the local nuclear medicine facility to use the centrifuge for 30 minutes

ripe field
#

sounds like some spanish suit

worthy meteor
#

there were some old plates and other kitchenware that were coated in uranium in like the 60s

#

you can usually buy them

#

they're slightly radioactive

mortal grail
#

Oh would radium work?

#

Old watches had radium hands

#

You could take an old watch in

worthy meteor
#

that could work but might be more expensive and might be harder to detect it

mortal grail
#

I mean parents might have one or two

ripe field
#

i dont want no watch or kitchenware i need some rock that goes crazy on some geiger counter

worthy meteor
#

fiestaware is just the popular thing for demonstrations

mortal grail
worthy meteor
mortal grail
ripe field
mortal grail
#

Does your school have a geiger counter anyway

ripe field
#

no

#

are they expensive?

mortal grail
#

Lol

#

I mean define cheap

ripe field
#

below 15 bucks

#

or 10 depending on what

mortal grail
#

Yeah not that low

#

Under 100

ripe field
#

just gotta mail my principal for "school supplies"

mortal grail
#

"Excuse me Mr. Wheatburger I'd like to purchase yellowcake and a geiger counter for skool"

worthy meteor
# ripe field i dont want no watch or kitchenware i need some rock that goes crazy on some gei...

you can do funny stuff like this
https://youtu.be/wluxzlMkoyw

Civil Defense Geiger Counter model CDV-700b with CDV-700RD pancake probe measuring a vintage (1936 - 1943) radioactive red Fiestaware dinner plate purchased on EBay. Background radiation as measured by Geiger counter is ~70CPM. Fiestaware dinner plate measures ~27,500CPM.

#

Do you want crazy geiger counter or do you want safe

#

Safe I'd consider something much lower tier lol

#

Those plates are probably (mostly) fine

worthy meteor
#

tbf fiestaware is reasonable safe as long as you don't put it up to your skin

ripe field
#

All this is reminding of some dude in Sweden trying to split the atom in his kitchen

#

Didn't even try to hide his activities

ripe field
mortal grail
#

Radium watch hands tbh

#

The thing with those is they were on all watches, and they glow in the dark

#

Pretty safe

#

It's not uranium tho

velvet summit
#

well i don't know but i've been told

mortal grail
#

But has the wow factor

worthy meteor
#

If you eat off of fiestaware for a year, the NRC estimates you receive 0.4mSv a year, which is around 10% of the normal yearly background dose of radiation you receive through mostly natural sources

velvet summit
#

uranium ore's worth more than gold

#

sold my cad, i bought me a jeep, i got that bug and i can't sleep

worthy meteor
#

it's not that bad

velvet summit
#

uranium fever has done and got me down

#

uranium fever is spreading all around

Oh these are lyrics

#

You could buy a lead box then put it inside the box

velvet summit
#

why are all the useful materials all so harmful to humans

ripe field
#

That sounds expensive

mortal grail
#

Open it when people want to look

#

Well the entire ambition is ambitious

#

Lol

velvet summit
#

lead is so useful but it's toxic

mortal grail
#

The watch thing seems like more entertainment

mortal grail
ripe field
#

Can't advance too fast

#

Gotta give all the other species a chance

mortal grail
#

Lead is the government's inhibitor

#

Spy on us with pigeons, then sneak lead into our foods

worthy meteor
#

oh apparently some plane counterweights are made with depleted uranium

velvet summit
worthy meteor
velvet summit
#

interesting

#

also buying depleted uranium is quite easy

#

nigel (nilered) bought some to make uranium glass

#

lmao

mortal grail
#

Here's the fun reason why

#

You can really get rid of the stuff

#

They have holding pools for depleted radioactive materia

#

Those sorta just sit there

#

Can't recycle the water

#

Some are decades old

worthy meteor
#

US still doesn't have any long term facilities

#

a lot are just stored on site

mortal grail
#

Well yeah there's no plan for the next million years that seems indisputable

#

Half life (3) takes a long time to fully release

worthy meteor
#

A lot of the waste are waste that'd become harmless within the timespan of 100 years

#

well, not a lot actually

velvet summit
#

the nuclear cult

worthy meteor
#

but some of the more radioactive stuff

mortal grail
#

Even 100 years is long af

#

That's at least 3 generations

worthy meteor
#

there's a lot that are barely radioactive

#

like the water they just released from fukushima a while ago

mortal grail
#

So yeah we just have these cess pools of toxic stuff

worthy meteor
#

most of current waste in the US are stored in dry casks

mortal grail
#

they use pools here

worthy meteor
#

waste from power plants at least

#

not sure about medical waste

mortal grail
#

It's quite common around the world to dump it in pools lol

#

They turn not just radioactive toxic but biologically toxic lol

worthy meteor
#

I mean the biggest users are the best with it

#

France is great with waste recycling and treatment

#

they have like 3 separate facilities

mortal grail
#

You getting all this ranger

ripe field
#

Why don't we just gather all radioactive waste and put it somewhere else

mortal grail
ripe field
#

Ofc

#

Like put it somewhere in the arctic

mortal grail

Sorry what

Sweden is garbage though

mortal grail
#

You guys have seen the explosion gif right

#

They used it in every tv show

#

^that's a real nuclear test lol

#

Operation Crossroads was a pair of nuclear weapon tests conducted by the United States at Bikini Atoll in mid-1946. They were the first nuclear weapon tests since Trinity on July 16, 1945, and the first detonations of nuclear devices since the atomic bombing of Nagasaki on August 9, 1945. The purpose of the tests was to investigate the effect of...

France uses a lot of nuclear energy

#

They must know a lot

worthy meteor

used to be #2 in the world

Unfortunately if only they could treat their river as good as they could the nuclear waste

not high enough

They are probably worse anyways smh

Yo guess which Swedish city is on my pfp

worthy meteor

the fukishima incident made alot of people anti-nuclear for real

worthy meteor

their energy grid in general

#

just went to crap

ripe field
worthy meteor
#

like imagine your electricity bill suddenly goes 5 times what they were last month

mortal grail
#

Tbf, that reactor took an earthquake and a tsunami before it finally gave up

worthy meteor
#

yea

worthy meteor
velvet summit
#

the plant would have been fine if they just had a little bit more storm protection or whatever

mortal grail
#

The impact of it wasn't nearly as bad as history would make you think it was either

#

The plant failed by intent

#

And despite the fallout there was failsafes working

velvet summit
#

defintely nothing near the scale of chernobyl 💀

#

that was absolutely terrible

mortal grail
#

Chernobyl is quoted so often

velvet summit
#

but yeah most incidents are like less than even a 10th of that incident

mortal grail
#

But comparably speaking the Russians were literally hamfisting nuclear

ripe field

Lmao ussr being all quiet like nothing happened is forever gonna be hilarious 💀

velvet summit

"huh why is the enviromental radiation level going up"

💀

mortal grail
#

My parents talked about it at the time, half of europe was impacted by it

Everyone was suddenly terrified of contamination everywhere
