  • Yeah, super awkward. If you were being specific to his followers, you’d say Catholics. If you’re being generic, you’d say his admirers or whatever. “Christians” is such a weird middle ground that includes some people who followed him religiously and some who didn’t but appreciated him anyway.

  • TIL that Alabama has by far the highest amount of death row inmates by capita of any US state

    Jump

  • Because that makes members of Congress more likely to sign off on spending bills, not because Alabama is a great place for it.

  • I'm not sure I'm toning up my arms the right way, can you help me?

    Jump

  • I've trained my arms for 3 days in a row, nothing fancy: upright rows, bent-over rows and triceps kickbacks, 10 repetitions each, 2 rounds. After that I'm so sore I cannot do more, so I turn to cardio and do planks (front and side) and some yoga.

    Really recommend finding a workout split. I do push, pull, legs x2 and an hour on the stationary bike on Sundays. Monday is push, so my chest, tris, and shoulders are all hit. Then they’re rested the next two days when I get back to push. You could do also do a bro split or just find something that works best for you. The important part is that you’re giving your muscles time to rest between sessions.

    On that note, the most effective way to gain muscle is to be in a calorie surplus, train to failure, and progressive overload (and steroids). So make sure you’re gaining weight (slowly, don’t just start bingeing cake). Push your sets to the point where you can no longer keep form. Try to lift more than you did last time (either more reps or more weight).

    Don’t skip legs. I don’t mean cardio, do some actual resistance work on your legs or prepare to find yourself top heavy. “Skipping leg day” is a meme for a reason.

  • Diamonds lose their sparkle as prices come crashing down

    Jump

  • Geoffrey Farrow at Raphael, a jeweller on the other side of the street, can only just bring himself to sell lab-grown diamonds. “They are synthetic,” he said. “Lab-grown sounds exotic, but it’s created – they make it by the buckets. There’s no history to it. The price is going to go down further and further.

    “It makes the stone that much cheaper, and people have the illusion that being big is something special. It’s not. It’s quality that you want.”

    What the actual fuck is he talking about? Is it the suffering that gives it quality? They’re impossible to tell apart without a magnifying glass.

  • 20 years later, real-time Linux makes it to the kernel - really

    Jump

  • The most obvious answer is gaming. Hard 60/144Hz deadlines is RT. But there are lots of changes that got into the kernel from the RT group, starting with getting rid of the BKL, which helped everyone.

  • People who wanted GPS were also already using it by buying TomToms or other GPS devices…

    The average desktop user already benefits from the changes the RT folks have slowly been getting into the baseline.

  • “Very fast” is relative. 1200mm/s is very fast for 3D printing, no argument. But it’s 1.2mm/millisecond, and we’re talking about time scales in the microsecond range. I suspect you’re going to run into materials issues far before real time performance becomes a limiting factor in print speed and quality.

    Jump

  • It’s like saying GPS was available for decades before, why would putting it in everyone’s phone expand its popularity.

    For myself, I’m hoping the nerds and hackers that otherwise found it not worth the effort will start creating tools to manage real time better and start building them into the applications they write. That way you don’t need to pay an arm and a leg to RedHawk for the privilege of dynamically isolating CPUs or have to reboot the computer to modify kernel arguments a la RedHat MRG.

  • What’s preventing that from working now? If it’s indeterminate latency, then yeah, absolutely. Theoretically this will give you the ability to have a very deterministic loop around the accelerometer data, but 3d printers don’t move all that fast to begin with so having unbounded latency might not matter. The determinism we’re talking about here is on the order of tens of microseconds or less.

  • It’s a bad meme. Nothing wrong with the topic or fighting against sexism in academia, but the context of the picture is literally the opposite of the message.

  • WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange returns to Australia a free man after US legal battle ends

    Jump

  • Which is a fine stance in the large, but not applicable to the current story. Assisting someone in leaking classified information being illegal is not some moral injustice.

  • I'm really not sure what your argument is. Sometimes journalists and whistleblowers have to break the law? Sure. However, they are still breaking the law. Certainly, an adult who is breaking the law should know that they are subject to consequences and need to suck it up and live with those consequences. Rosa Parks had her day in court and was convicted of a crime. She accepted that she broke the law, regardless of how unjust it was, and did the time. That was enough to affect change.

    If Assange, or anyone else, insists on breaking the law to be able to publish information, then they need to accept that they will be held accountable. Chelsea Manning served her time. Assange finally had his day in court. Snowden, hopefully, will get his day in court as well.

  • Supreme Court rejects multibillion-dollar Purdue Pharma opioid settlement that shielded billionaire Sackler family

    Jump

  • I feel bad for the folks that need and deserve that money from the settlement, but it was unconscionable to allow the Sackler fucks to walk away immune with their billions. Fuck that family. I hope they get sued all the way to the poor house and found criminally liable.

  • WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange returns to Australia a free man after US legal battle ends

    Jump

  • That’s a straw man. We’re talking about journalists enticing someone to break the law. I already provided Greenwald and Poitras as examples of journalists who had a far larger impact with their coverage and did so without breaking the law.

  • WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange returns to Australia a free man after US legal battle ends

    Jump

  • No shit, those are called laws. Journalists do not get a free pass to break laws. Imagine that was the case for a second. How quickly would the Sun or any other shit rag convince someone to murder someone so they can report on it?

    This is an absurd stance. The dude broke the law, he has now had his day in court.

  • WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange returns to Australia a free man after US legal battle ends

    Jump

  • That’s journalism.

    Uh, no it fucking isn’t. Journalists absolutely are not permitted to entice people to commit crimes more than any other person. This is exactly why Greenwald and Poitras were not indicted, they didn’t ask Snowden to do anything, they just reported what he had already stolen.

  • Internet forums are disappearing because now it's all Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying.

  • And then you can go through and delete all your comments, lessening the value of Reddit as a platform.
