Just Post@lemmy.world•I was looking at 3d print models. Saw this and realized something.
9·13 hours agoBack in ye olden days, looking at an engraving of the Virgin Mary might be the closest you could feasibly get to porn.
And I have a hard time believing that there isn’t some solid or liquid (or maybe some other exotic state of matter, due to the heat and pressure) inner core way down in there, even if it’s relatively tiny compared to the size of the planet.
Even if it was entirely made of gas when it formed, surely some materials would have fallen in over the eons that could stay solid/liquid at the pressure/temperature of a gas giant’s core?
Ah, but what if you brought a large balloon, inflated it, and flew a helicopter inside the balloon?
Sure. 25% --> 37% … as long as you (for some arbitrary reason) only consider 8 “places” in the solar system.
7 of those are planets, but Titan is a moon. If we’re going to include moons, then there’s going to be a whole lot more than 8 “places” in the solar system, so the percentage of places where helicopters can work is going to be greatly reduced. If we get really pedantic and consider any orbiting body in the solar system to be a “place”, then there will be hundreds, thousands of them where helicopters can’t possibly work, once you start tallying up asteroids and comets.
Also, why does the list include 7 planets, not 8? What? Are you not interested in trying to make a helicopter work on Mercury? That’s quitter talk!

Linux@lemmy.world•I'll have like 2 applications open and be at 9GB of RAM.English
6·23 hours agoThat’s just because ZFS’s disc cache shows up as application-used memory, instead of disc cache memory. (Disc cache memory is often reported in system monitor tools as ‘free’ memory, because it can be freed up as soon as you need it. ZFS’s disc cache works the same way, but it’s not reported separately to the OS, so that makes it look like ZFS is using a shitload of RAM.) If it bothers you, you can set a maximum amount of RAM for ZFS to use, and that will clear it up. It will mean that your performance is slightly worse, though, because ZFS won’t be able to use disc caching optimally.

I just hate always being rushed rushed rushed. Always have to go faster. Click faster, move faster, make decisions faster. Faster faster faster.
I want to play a strategy game, but at competitive levels, it’s less about strategic thinking and more about just memorizing what the ‘meta’ is, and then being able to execute that meta faster than the other guy. And all this rush and hurry all the time is just too much strain. I want to play games to relax, not to add stress. I get plenty of stress from real life.

Comic Strips@lemmy.world•I mean ... what are we doing here? [instachaaz]
2·3 days agoThat’s really a flawed analogy, though. In this analogy, the man isn’t passing the Chinese Turing Test – the program is passing the Turing Test. The man is just the hardware that the program is running on.
It’s not a question of whether the man (the hardware) has any understanding. What you want to know is if the program has any understanding. Honestly, it seems like deliberately muddying the issue by proposing this hypothetical ‘intelligent hardware’ and using it to distract from the actual question about the software’s intelligence.
If I’m running a supposedly ‘intelligent’ AI on my 3090, you can’t refute that by pointing out that the 3090 is not intelligent on its own, without software.
