RickRussell_CA, to youshouldknow in YSK if you've built a computer and it won't boot, sometimes the issue can be resolved by taking the memory out and putting it back.
RickRussell_CA avatar

Well, the real YSK is that memory and expansion cards have distinctive positions they should take within each slot, with a detente that holds them in place. Your system will only work reliably if the devices are fully seated.

When you first assemble the system, plug and unplug each item several times so you get the feel of it. There will always be a distinct detente when the device is fully seated. It's a lot easier to do this exercise with everything out on the bench, rather than mounted in the case when it will be a stone cold bee-atch to reach in and reseat the parts.

I wish people would stop using words like "symbolic". This isn't a symbol. Calling it one threatens to dilute the message.

asking if they subscribe to other myth based beliefs, religions, etc

What you actually said:

Out of interest are you religious or subject to some other form of mythical belief system? I ask because clearly you lack motivation for the truth, preferring hearsay and urban legend that I must assume supports a wider world view. by @Hackerman_uwu

My thought: this kind of behaviour is one of things that made Reddit fucking awful and I’d hate to see it flourish here in the fediverse.

So, it's basically 4chans all the way down.

Nominally, you'd need to go through some request process to request federation with other large instances. Then they'd vet your configuration before adding you.

OK, that was pretty random.

You're absolutely right. You're no physicist.

But seriously, for a practical example of "action at a distance", consider quantum key distribution.

Notably, it's Chapter 11 bankruptcy, so they are clearly trying to revive the company by renegotiating their debts.

RickRussell_CA, to nostupidquestions in Did racist use the "biological advantage" argument when Black athletes started competing alongside white athletes?
RickRussell_CA avatar

The famous example you're thinking of is Jimmy Snyder, aka Jimmy the Greek, a sports commentator and sports betting expert who used to work for CBS sports. He was interviewed as part of a series about civil rights in the US, and the interviewer was sort of expecting him to say something pleasant about black folks' success in athletics opening doors for education and leadership, etc.

Instead he made some pretty astonishing claims that were intensely racist.
