10TiB in this economy? in brazil? mad respect. and honestly considering ram prices, a good investment. what is the power draw ? i have always considered that above lets say 2TB, it makes more sense to not buy more dense drives, as price does not go linearly, power draw sure goes linear, but then 1 drive is still 1 drive, it can fail. with 5 drives, 1 can be parity, but still have 8tb usable with some redundancy. SOrry if you did not want questions, i was just curious.

do you need some test readers?

Since I have given a spoiler of this news, i would not add too much build -

I got an offer letter for a doctorate (funded, the only correct option). It is from a really great school, and really happy.

Also I had some simulation which was stuck for weeks working, and also now done it twice, one a bit more correct then other.

and i found some really cool insect. they all made me feel happy. and the dogs that i do put some food for were as cheerful as usual (they follow me around, can seek me from crowd from fairly far away), they always bring me joy.

I am happy as we speak.

(i have done some similar shit as well, game must recognise game)

Regarding chapter - I did not expect we would see mu bleed. I did follow the spoilers this week, (i skipped the week of mu arrival, mostly because i wanted to enjoy that reveal), and knew the loki is going to go all out, and yet not going to win, but i did not expect mu to bleed at any point. this definitely puts him in finite power range. though his injuries healed pretty quickly, the fact that he can be injured, he certainlly is not immortal in this current time and position.

the theory that i did have, and was much improved by a comment i read on reddit is that (well it assumes imu has had the op-op no mi (law’s fruit) immortality operation) the operation room where law can do anything is the only place where mu is immortal, it is like he stops aging in that specific room. whenever he leaves that room, he starts to age (and presumably as a curse, must age very quickly). considering he has “the devil fruit”, he is still powerful (to put it extremely lightly), but not infinite life span. This is also why gorosei (5 elders) were concerned of mu leaving the castle - the flower room is the operation room, where life can blossom.

That theory would also be great to depict the importance of this fight - imu has left castle for first time in hundreds of years, because this is the first fight he has considered worth leaving his immortality for - cause joyboy and elbaph are back. Another thing that I believe is elbaph (as in, the god of war) was either the army head of the ancient kingdom in joyboy’s era, or even before, just the god of war in one piece pantheon, like nika is sun god.

The peak piece just simply does not stop!

the unexpected. when i did some lab work in a course to study how different chain lengths travel at different speeds, that is what we got (shorter ones are slower iirc, because they interact more with surroundings, or maybe that is just true for chemical chromatography stuff). That was very interesting, cause i did that one with my seniors batch just because i was interested, and when it was time for my batch covid happened. also my first (major) exposure to carcinogen (we used some dye which is banned in eu i think)

to me (who does xrd on basically nearly weekly basis) this is like genesis of a whole crystallography field. also definitely very low protection as per modern standards

sexual desire (kama) is one of the 5 sins (or vices to be exact translate). in indic religions, 5 vices are kama (sexual desire), krodh(anger), lobh(greed), moh(love/attachments), and ahenkar (pride). moh is a bit more complex, because prem (also love) is a good thing, consider relations which bind you with love to be moh, which liberate you to be prem. there is no equivalent for gluttony or sloth or envy from the western 7, rest match.

I do not know much about buddhism, but from my surrounding understanding, i guess it follows the same logic. either budhha considered female interaction kama, or in some case it might be moh. it could also be prem, but i guess you can not have prem with someone you just met (or moh for that matter), so it is very likely just kama. and to attain enlightment, one must overcome these 5 vices, and i guess budhha did.

just a little bit context - until very recently (i think within last 10 years, i guess 2019, but my memory is hazy), britishers never even issued a state level official apology. like not after independence, not 50 years after it. I think they did in 2019, which would mark 100 year anniersary of massacre.

at the time, punjab was one of more developed regions of india, mostly from being a bit more farm rich, also because they were one of last states to befell against the empire. I do not remember the exact trigger, but a bout 1-2 weeks before the incident, a state curfew was declared, which restricted any meetups of 4 or more people in public.

the massacre occured on day of vaisakhi - it is farmers haravest festival, been celebrated for 100s (if not 1000s) of years, as this is when you either start or complete harvesting your winter crop (wheat). this would mean celebrations, some fairs, trade, etc. also, nearly 200 years ago, sikhs’ 10th guru, gobind singh officialy made sikh a separate religion on visakhi (for about 150 years before him, sikhism was more like sufi moment, instead of being organised religion, it was more of some wise guy doing his public sessions. he performed a very small symbolic ritual, but to put it simply, to be a sikh, you just had to drink some prepared holy water). I am adding all this to tell you - you expect people to be out in public on vaisakhi, for cultural, religious, or trade reasons, even if you were rebelious.

and dyer ordered a fire at largely armless crowd in the jalliyan wala bagh (bagh means garden, or ground). hundreds died. from horror stories of survivors, one of the ways to escape your “fate” that day was to hide among dead, of your own family.

there was a trial against dyre by some indians, but obviously dyre obviously won it. He was killed by someone (udham singh) who was traumatised by the incident some 20-30 years afterwards.

I wrote most of this from memory, but wiki article is highly recommended in case you want something detailed - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/?title=Jallianwala_Bagh_massacre

mu is practically just as strong as i imagined, and by that i mean - beyond all expectations

I just learnt that sdf shut down. was there a announcement post i missed? i had subbed to 4 comms via rss feeds, and been noticing that for about 1 week they never returned anything, but ignored considering shit happens.

pardon me, but you are overthinking it a lot. with regular sound, you are usually not generating a sound constantly, and ven if you would you are likely one of the nodes, and the sound dynamics would be triangular nodal situation, which seems like hard (3 body problem). Also it is not really a filter, cause you are often not producing exact frequencies for resonance conditions, in which case the are just reflectors. I am ignoring your comparison with cmb and cosmo scale. frequency is property of a wave, and is limited by geometry and medium.

dark chocolate, cashew and rice (sometimes with, sometimes without any lentils, onions or something). love them. with first 2 - cost is a issue, with rice, it is not that nutritious

i am late, but here is a news you must promise to take to your graves. and you definitely did not hear this from me.

someone may (or may not, still no official letter) have landed admission to phd programme

This is not a test drill - ****ing king of world has descended on elbaf. holy ****. I have legitimately shit my pants (and mu looks really good).

all hail goda

fun fact, days have actually been getting longer pretty much since formation of earth (well moon to be correct). reason iirc is that moon is slowly moving away from earth, and this results in some dynamics changing and as a result earth spins slower. like billions of years ago, it was closer to 23 hours.

ps - very rusty memory right now, should have skipped writing instead of half borked fact

i love rust, but this shit is so peak

i laughed so hard, i had to explain this to someone else at work.

looks so good

i just found your community. i have always been interested in hardware tech, but regular tech community is just software news. thank you
