I thought the five second rule was how long until you could claim a newly-vacated seat.

That’s the tail of a cat that wants to be friends.

Technology@lemmy.world•World's first GPS-free quantum navigation trial succeeds at seaEnglish
7·13 days agoIs that true globally? I seem to remember that some ocean areas wouldn’t have as many satellites visible as e.g. polar orbits don’t visit all of the globe.

5·13 days agoThe only thing I can think is that they’re comparing with a single system (e.g. GPS or BeiDou), even though GNSS receivers will combine all four systems to get very high accuracy (a few metres).
That cactus on the right just adds to the confusing picture - my brain wanted to see a tail.
Seems you need to download the PDF to get all of it.

Ted retired last year so there’s a bit more on him out there, but I didn’t have luck searching for the word “stripes” in them - possibility a proper search would have more luck.
Good trivia, and I just learnt* that initially Ted Price, CEO of Insomniac Games, answered “over my dead body” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxsZXVtTIuU
* I’m not 100% sure it’s true, but it’s widely reported

cats@lemmy.world•In today's episode of Sake lays on anything: aluminum foil.
25·26 days agoWeird - most cats don’t like tin foil and you can use it to stop them jumping up on counter surfaces.

Technology@lemmy.world•First test flight of largest all-electric aircraft used just $5 of electricityEnglish
241·26 days agoI’m guessing it mostly flew in circles, since it’s a test flight that happened “at Plattsburgh International Airport” instead of between two locations. 27 minute flight, whatever that’s worth.

Technology@lemmy.world•A Physicist Rigged His Pet Hamster’s Wheel to Upload to Strava. It Runs Surprisingly Far Every NightEnglish
115·1 month agoThe one thing he didn’t plan for was that auto-uploading the files this way required a paid account.
“There was really only one reasonable solution: my hamster now has Strava Premium,” de Buck said.
Love the commitment to the bit. I was unsurprised to learn that the owner is a physicist and an injured runner meaning he has both the time and motivation to geek out on data and live vicariously.

11·1 month agoHere we were having a civil, good faith discussion, then you start flinging around downvotes to try to suppress any post you don’t 100% approve of. That’s not conducive to quality discourse, and you should stop it. You comments votes are downvotes 42% of the time.
Thanks for the link and I’ll look into this, but I won’t be talking with you any further.

12·1 month agoAISI is the AI Security Institute, so it’s within their remit to discover what the AI companies’ products can do - but then to not be monitoring them while they were running is where I call incompetence and negligence.
This is at least independent verification that these “breaches” aren’t just AI bro marketing.

2·1 month agoAISI admitted it was not actively monitoring the agents’ behaviour during the evaluation and said it was putting tighter controls on internet access in tests as a result of the incident, introducing constant monitoring and reassessing its design of tests.
Sounds like the AISI are irresponsible and negligent - they took off the guardrails and gave it internet access, then didn’t monitor it.
I’m still using

shutdownstill defaults to single-user mode, so I guess that muscle memory will still be useful if I ever use a Devuan or antiX box.
