I tried that once, my computer caught fire then told me to kill my son,
I don’t even have a son

think I’ll just stick to linux

The illuminati lizardpeople are furloughed for the duration of the shutdown

Yeah the first issue is in theory solvable, but they never managed to do it, not in a practical manner at least (huge cryocooled superconductors is probably not very practical)

The forces are from the immense magnetic fields, two parallel wires with current in opposite directions will repel eachother, so the rails are trying to move apart from eachother

This plus the heat causing material expansion plus the rails needing to be very straight for it all to work, and you end up having a bit of an engineering headache on your hands

But yeah it’s mainly when you build large ones meant to fire things at really really high speeds, maybe we’ll find a way to improve it one day, but for now it’s sadly dead in the water (in the military sector at least, but they tend to be the main driving force behind technology that fires things)

The issue is that large scale railguns tend to self destruct, either from the heat or from the immense forces, so it can only fire a few shots before it needs extensive maintenance, and the time it takes to recharge is quite long in most practical applications (warships and such) which is why the american military has given up on the concept.

For launching stuff you have the same issues, except you now the payload isn’t a solid piece of metal but an intricate component which somehow needs to survive the insane acceleration (unless you use a really long barrel)

Machines creating beautiful art with soul and all that, i can see that happening
But the cold soulless disregard for human life required to commit genocide, now that’s something i just cannot see robots replicating. it needs that human touch to get just right

Well now it’s more “Food stamps? No foodstamps for you!”

Me when i get told the same thing:

In my experience, the ai generate code has better error handling than code i write myself

I’m lazy so i only write if it’s important (and i think of it), the AI is less lazy and often codes quite defensively in my experience

Same here really, i plan the structure, then have ai throw it together, then i clean up and build off of that

I can’t say i particularly miss writing the mindless boilerplate stuff

I prefer the OG

“wow it’s only 14GB?”

That’s easy, just get a second 3d printer to print parts to fix the 3d printer

Car oopsy daisies

I imagine mechahitler stuck in a loop sending digital high-fives to itself

They’re only real ducks if they’re from the duck region of france, otherwise they’re just sparkling wine

*thinks gay*

IF YOU WISH TO PREVAIL!

Oh so you’re the one behind all the electronics waste in my local river?

Please throw it in the bin or install linux on it from now on

That’s what i love about Microsoft, they just keep pumping out excellent reasons to switch away from windows!
I switched after a forced win10 update bricked my computer for the third time in less than a month 👌

I never chase bugs, i only create them
