A slightly less dumb idea would be to tax food by calorie content. In ages of famine, that tends to be the main factor in its cost, after all, and when obesity is rampant, it could make people more aware of their diet. Artificial sweeteners and other low-energy alternatives would become way more viable. Of course, this is impractical as it would inadvertently cause massive misrepresentation of calorie count (even if the <5 cal/serving ≈ 0 cal loophole is closed).


USSR bartered machinery for bananas or sugar with Vietnam and Cuba because they lacked hard currency. I heard rumors that the rate was 1:1 by weight but I haven’t been able to find evidence. It’s probably just a widespread myth making fun of how dumb the USSR’s policies were and the banana scarcity.


iGPUs vary by feature set a lot. A fully-featured GPU can sit on the motherboard and use the same cooling system as the CPU but most are bare-bones, maybe just with video codecs.


Looks like he’s having a dark chapter in his life. I don’t know what caused the burnout initially but AI is part of the doom cycle. He could use mental healthcare.


Your GPU has 128 MB of memory? What for? Mine just pushes framebuffer contents outta the VGA and DVI-D ports, with some features like I²C to determine supported resolutions and VSYNC to prevent tearing.


VMs with desktop Linux or Android are technically possible but you won’t enjoy the performance. Better dual-boot with those specs.


Damn, 1 GB of RAM in cca 2003? That was really a high-end machine. But 4 GB is enough for a Linux computer now with not too many browser tabs or workflows with large files.

Outlines are fine, the tell is the utterly different lighting (could have been solved with a non-lightbox photo)


I have lots of anti-AI stickers, will it help reduce the shock if I distribute them?


Memory usage vastly depends on what the GUI framework is, if any files are open, what processing is being done… There can be a terminal emulator that needs 300 MB, and a hex editor can use any amount of RAM depending on what file is loaded (although better ones load file chunks on demand).

Woah… Your username is “codewizard”, yet you can’t read line charts or XY plots, simple data visualization techniques taught in middle school?


If you have a meter on the wall that says “height”, height exists outside the meter too. Height is a property of every point in the room. For any point, you can follow a horizontal line to the corresponding point on the meter, read the number, and that’s the height at that spot. Also, every point on a horizontal plane will have the same height: all points on the kitchen counter will have a height of about 83 cm, every point on the ceiling a height of about 230 cm. The meter is basically an axis and you’re using it to measure how high various points throughout the room are.
Then people realized you can do it in 2 or 3 dimensions and represent data.


This diagram does not physically exist, it would be impossible to maintain such temperature and pressure gradient. What it helps with is identifying which state water is in under given conditions. Find the temperature you’re interested in on the x-axis and the pressure you’re interested in on the y-axis, project these values at right angles to find a point in the chart and the color at that point is the state water is in for the specific conditions.


I was just using a basic example where a value (latitude) increases as you go in one direction and another (longitude) as you go in another. Coordinates (0°, 0°), or zero point, of maps is indeed the intersect between the equator and Prime Meridian, known as Null Island (which is actually just a buoy). They use Longitude-latitude(-elevation), which are polar coordinates and useful for navigation on and near the surface. There’s the ECEF (Cartesian) system too, centered on Earth’s center of mass, but much less intuitive.


You seem to conflate axes and the quantities they represent. Learn more about graphs.


Yes but it should be explained to OP that even though there is an axis labeled “time”, time exists outside that line. The label does not say “here is time” but “this line shows how many seconds away from the reference point any point is based on how far it is in this direction on the diagram”
I know what
P00is, that’s program 00 or the root process of the computer. Terminating the subprocess hands control back toP00, which is why the processor is instructed toGOTOP00H.
