    How do black holes "evaporate", where do they "go"?

  • I don't know if this is true but it was very fun to read.

  • Anthropic has developed an AI 'brain scanner' to understand how LLMs work and it turns out the reason why chatbots are terrible at simple math and hallucinate is weirder than you thought

    Jump

  • Not anymore, of course. But nothing beats that brain rot apart from sites that hijack your controls.

  • Same way you survive live TV. You learn to mentally block out ads.

  • I would let him have the same stuff as his classmates

    By the way, this one really stings. Sucks to not be able to participate with friends using their phones. Sucks even more to have to borrow it because you need to participate in a class activity that requires it or have to do something urgently and no way to use a computer.

  • I'm not gonna be a Luddite and say smart phone bad. However, you seem concerned so I'd recommend locking it down as much as possible if you want to keep them off stuff like TikTok or Xitter.

    As an anecdote, having a smart phone made school much more tolerable since it let me watch TV during lunch, browse memes when waiting in awfully long lines daily, and being able to listen to music when allowed was awesome. They'll definitely be grateful for one, just gotta make sure it's not abused.

    Also, they're going to need to be acquainted with the little computer in their pocket eventually. Good to do it before they reach the rebellious phase.

  • If you could keep your body at a certain physical age...

    Jump

  • I guess I'm the weird one choosing a much younger age. Perfect for me would be 16-18. Feel like that was when my body was most resilient.

  • People are actually paying to wear an ad?

    Jump

  • Why would I want an anthropomorphic hyena over my shirts? It's still a kind of branding.

    Jump

  • I'm familiar with Hyena Agenda. A friend showed me their shirts because he is one. Never before been so jealous.

  • Don't think they are open source but they do provide a ton of free, high quality icons. Presumably they make money off the organizations paying for the icon packs.

    I'm not sure what OP has against them. He should take a look at how Nike has hypnotized a portion of the population into giving them money for shoes with a check mark.

  • I feel like I became cognizant of this when I tried customizing my GTA Online character in something that wasn't a nice suit (street wear). After scroling through so much cotton billboard it made get how tacky and humiliating it is. Turned out to be much harder in real life to find non-branded shirts with cool designs, such utter bullshit.

  • I despise branded clothing but that does look like something funny to wear.

  • Saudi Arabia Buys Pokémon Go, and Probably All of Your Location Data

    Jump

  • I don't usually buy the "but it's ok if the company is American!!!" accusations because no corporation should be abusing your privacy, but I was just sitting here wondering why they think it is suddenly not ok if a foreign company is the one harvesting data.

    I remember it being pretty big news when it was revealed, with government agencies making the app forbidden for their employees.

  • Temba, his breath stolen

  • Shaka, his head down in failure...

  • Truffault and "Two" having a Garak and Bashir Chat

    Jump

  • If I recall, her first appearance was breaching the ship with a goon squad and declaring it her's. She came into the show at 100% and never stopped. SyFy executives robbed me of another season of anticipating how Truffles dies.

  • Truffault and "Two" having a Garak and Bashir Chat

    Jump

  • The mere mention of Truffles with her punchable face gave me the same visceral reaction to whenever Kai Wynn appears. Is the hallmark of a good show having a powerful woman written so well they are more detestable than a warlord? On an unrelated note, found 2 nickels in my pocket.

  • Memories awoken.

  • Why are Google's Assistant(s) so bad nowadays?

    Jump

  • I don't use it often but lately it stopped being able to turn off my flashlight for no reason. Can only turn on. I wonder if it's just to get people to use Gemini. It's a shame because I found the normal assistant capable enough for my needs.

  • Took a break from Trek to watch Dark Matter and realized...I was still watching Trek.

  • That's wild I do NOT remember that all. 💀
