This always cracks me up, because it's a perfect example of a snake eating it's own tail. "Based" was originally just a shortened way of saying "based in reality" or "based in fact", but new people didn't get the original context, so it just became it's own word. Then, the uninitiated started making the "Based? Based on what?" joke, completely oblivious of the original meaning.

I don't know what GNV/HYDRA is, but I like the sound of it. What's the repo called?

stingpie ,

If course it's written in lisp. Though I'd expect it to be more like EURISKO or Cyc, instead of a more conversational ai.

"An anaconda that is sprung?" What does that mean?

stingpie ,

Oh, so the goal is to get the certain doom?

stingpie ,

Yeah, mine. EYYYYOOOOO! (I may or may not have ED)

At first, I thought you were referencing the Old testament.

Am I completely fucked or is this fixable? ( lemmy.dbzer0.com )

I don't care what's it gonna take. I just want a connection. I guess I can connect the VCC to another voltage source, but I have the same thing happened to TX on another circuit board, although that one can "flip" (it is still attached marginally... at one end)....

Usually you can scrape off the solder mask to expose the copper layer, then use a bodge wire to connect the trace to the connector.

Is this I'm reference to a specific event, like redhat, or is it just generally about Linux distros using proprietary code?

I think one could argue that fantasy isn't based on the reality of the medieval ages, but on the collective beliefs and myths of that era.

As a side effect, though, the countryside would probably be filled with giant snails that you'd have to fight.

I don't think this is necessarily true. The reason DNA is so affected by radiation is because it's malleable. It's built out of chemical building blocks that fit like Lego. Gray goo would likely be similar to extremely complex proteins which replicate like a physical version of a quine.

I'm not talking about little tiny robots with batteries and computers, I'm talking about precisely formed, microscopic and deformable chunks of metal. That's why I brought up proteins- they do not carry any information themselves, and can sometimes form duplicates of themselves, such as in the case of prions.

iirc, this board isn't nearly as interesting as it seems. You can't actually do any multiprocessing, because only one CPU can be activated at a time. So you can't actually leverage the two CPUs to do anything that each CPU couldn't do on it's own.

When playing overly smart characters I tend go less for loquaciousness and more for confusing amounts of double entendré. Like how a temple might be incensed if I gave them the wrong perfume.
