Yeah... At best click baity as fuck, at worst a complete scam.

Any time there is a 10x or more in a headline you are 10x or more likely to be right by calling it BS.

[–] GoodOleAmerika@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

It's like temu. 100x discount.

This article appeared in my feed just above another article about how China has the world's first operational thorium reactor. Meanwhile, the US is about to fight a civil war over whether vaccination causes measles and stripping away the last of our social programs in order to get our wealthiest people another 2% subsidy.

[–] SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world 27 points 2 days ago (9 children)

China and Russia worked very hard to get these rich stupid people in power.

It really started in 2016 when US security agencies released a joint report showing Russia was spreading misinformation to help Trump win the election.

Surprisingly, the "liberal tears compilations" and "something about an email server people didn't understand wasn't actually illegal" actually worked and drowned out the warnings from our security agencies.

I don't think China will be any better of a world leader tbh.

I see humanity's future as a boot stepping on a human face forever, unless humanity globally rejects kings, oligarchs, and dictators.

Don't forget the genius DNC folk, including HRC thought a pied piper strategy of boosting the circus peanut was a good idea.

If the Russians and Chinese did anything it was just capitalizing on an unforced error by the hubris of the centrist. One again, bernie would have won, but that was more distasteful to the ruling class than fascism.

Fuck the idiotic Americans that won't bother to immunize, never mind understanding science as a whole.

Whenever they say X whatever times, I doubt it right away, because they always interpret the statistics in the dumbest ways possible. You have a solar panel that is 28% efficient. There is no way it can be 20x times as efficient, that's just clickbait.

By tuning the “Gaussian length” of the channel, the team achieved two‑dimensional super‑injection, which is an effectively limitless charge surge into the storage layer that bypasses the classical injection bottleneck.

They finally stole the French édriseur technology I see

Which episode of Star Trek is this from?

[–] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 40 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The one where there's a problem with the holodeck.

Do you have any idea how little that narrows it down?

They're just copying the description of the turbo encabulator.

Link to the actual paper: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-025-08839-w

The repro and verification will take time. Months or even years. Don't trust anyone who says it's definitely real or definitely bunk. Time will tell.

Speaking of, did you hear there's a new room temperature super conductor?

China scientists

So, Chinese scientists?

[–] Mooseford@lemmy.today 19 points 2 days ago

No they are people who study the China Science.

[–] pycorax@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago (5 children)

Probably because is an ethnicity and nationality. There are ethnic Chinese people all over the world and a few countries and regions are made of a majority of ethnic Chinese but are not related to China. Calling them the same thing is playing into the PRC's "all ethnic Chinese pledge their allegiance to China" nonsense.

[–] Netux@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

Isreal like that game of pretend. They believe anti zionist Jews are traitors.

I think it's a slightly different connotation. "China scientists" infers scientists residing in China while not presuming their ethnicity, while "Chinese scientists" implies their ethnicity but not their location.

You just fucking wait. Trump is bringing manufacturing to the US. And when that plant opens someday you'll be so sorry you doubted.

[–] BobSentMe@lemm.ee 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm sure the foxconn plant in Wisconsin will fire up ANY DAY NOW! drums fingers

[–] 800XL@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

I talked to like 50 people today and all of the people said they were starting manufacturing plants tomorrow and they'll be fully functional Tuesday around 3:15.

I started mine earlier and I've already done manufacturing 3 times today. It's really easy. By this time tomorrow I'll have a couple more and they'll all be winning manufacturing.

Tariffs gave me the ability to finally believe in myself. Tariffs have increased my stamina in bed, given me a full head of hair again, and since I started manufacturing plant yesterday I've dropped 50 pounds.

Yawn

Wake me up if they figure out how to make this cheap enough to put in a normal person's server.

[–] Zip2@feddit.uk 119 points 2 days ago (6 children)

normal person’s server.

I’m pretty sure I speak for the majority of normal people, but we don’t have servers.

[–] umbraroze@slrpnk.net 45 points 2 days ago (4 children)

Yeah, when you're a technology enthusiast, it's easy to forget that your average user doesn't have a home server - perhaps they just have a NAS or two.

(Kidding aside, I wish more people had NAS boxes. It's pretty disheartening to help someone find old media and they show a giant box of USB sticks and hard drives. In a good day. I do have a USB floppy drive and a DVD drive just in case.)

Ikr...Dude thinks we're restaurants or something.

[–] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 4 points 1 day ago

"Normal person" is a modifier of server. It does not state any expectation of every normal person having a server. Instead, it sets expectation that they are talking about servers owned by normal people. I have a server. I am norm.. crap.

Too bad the US can't import any of it.
