old power supplies used transformers, which when not loaded behave like inductors, and this causes reactive current to flow. not a problem for the last 15+ years because everything uses switching mode power supplies now

damn there are thielbux behind every sv monstrosity

both of them are cryptobros

It looks like twitter was down for 2.5h. [hn] Previously there was a fire in twitter server farm which caused some availability issues. Gee i wonder how well these gas turbines are serviced

well for one it looks like that wasn't one off and more of a pattern. i remember this one https://lemmy.world/post/25606000/15124978 and i've heard of this one https://lemmy.cafe/post/13433291/9941167 also in modlog you can see that that account was mass-banned from ml subs just five days ago so it's not some ancient incident

awful is great and i'm glad that it's a thing, but there's entire world beyond it, and to go there, i curate a shitlist (now less intensely than previously). this can tell you to avoid things like any pleroma instance, for example (and if it was up to me, i'd defederate by default from them)

lmao really all are equal on awful. ban in three replies for ai boosterism, but not for weird harassment or murder-suicide encouragement, which happened to that user after muchhh longer time elsewhere

Bad news for Trump’s Golden Dome: He can’t build it ~~without Canada~~

ftfy

does awful have taglines enabled? this would be nice as one

ai can't generate anything that is not averaged dogshit made by grinding every political cartoon to pixels and compressing it to paste. it categorically can't generate caricatures, for example. it also shows a degree of creativity and familiarity with literature unlikely in average propmptfan. and also text is legible

you would need something silly like 50x more interceptors than ICBMs and SLBMs and these are more expensive and technically harder than either

The NMD program is limited in scope and designed to counter a relatively small ICBM attack from a less sophisticated adversary.

also ground-based interceptor is more expensive than ICBM, and you need one for each warhead and maybe also for decoys, and probably more than one to be reasonably sure. since everyone operates under MAD it doesn't matter if you destroy most probable adversary's nukes on the ground or in the air, so that's one of reasons why ICBMs are a thing, and then SLBMs as a second line. cue arms race. ABM are considered destabilizing and are limited by treaties

ai could never make this
