When I was 12, I thought I had broken the family computer trying to get Ultima III to run. I read every MS-DOS manual I could find trying to fix it before someone found me out. It was the frikin CMOS battery. I learned a lot of DOS that summer.

MojoMcJojo@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What would happen if the Earth were sucked into a black hole?2·1 month agoWe knew they existed before we found them, because of maths, andthe math actually gets us pretty far. It’s the singularity in the center, or past the event horizon that we can’t know about, because reality is shy like that. It boggles my mind that we were able to look around and say “hey guys, I’ve been measuring stuff, like how fast things fall down, and well, you’re not gonna believe this.”
MojoMcJojo@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What would happen if the Earth were sucked into a black hole?41·1 month agoA lot Please, please, please, someone check my googled physics and AI math:
E = mc² = 1 kg × (3×10⁸ m/s)² = 9×10¹⁶ joules (90,000,000,000,000,000 joules)
or
~21.5 MEGAtons of TNT (by comparison, the Hiroshima bomb was ~15 KILOtons)
It would have a temperature of ~1.2 × 10²³ K (1,200,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Kelvin) The sun is a 5,772 Kelvin.
Like a ‘small’ star, it would radiate energy of about ∼3.6×10³² Watts (3,600,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 W) The sun puts out about 3.8x10²⁶ Watts (380,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 W)
Final burst duration: less than ∼8×10⁻¹⁷ seconds, or slightly faster than it takes for your mom to drop her panties.
Now for the best part. All of that energy would emanate from a very, and I can’t express this enough, very tiny spot, like a billion times smaller than a proton:
~1.5×10⁻²⁷ meters
A proton is about 10⁻¹⁵
From seemingly nowhere, instant God-boom. I like to imagine that whatever was next to it would just disappear, and then the shockwave would happen.
Again, I googled and used AI to run the code for the calculations, so…you know, correct me and downvote.

That’s why we elected people to help the community with our collected funds. To help govern the distribution of the community effort. Well, that was the idea.
MojoMcJojo@lemmy.worldto DeGoogle Yourself@lemmy.ml•What's the main reason you're degoogling?12·3 months agoThe advertising has become the engine in every possible corner. It’s like searching billboards now, not websites. My email feeds the ads I get. My Gboard keyboard for my text messages feeds the ads I’m shown. Hell the websites I visit get advertised back to me. Google Lenovo for work reasons and a year later I’m still getting fed ads for Lenovo on other platforms that have no association with Google. It’s like the Adoring fan of Oblivion who really really wants to make me happy by offering me things he heard me mention once Every. Single. Day! Dude stop! Shut up and leave me the fuck alone.
I wish I could shove Google off a cliff.
I read that as he hoped hell was empty as in you get sent to emptiness. Alone, nothing everywhere, for eternity.

Thank you. Instant lock and wipe before handing it over to your friendly neighborhood gestapo holding you gun point is just what we need.
I think it’s not feasible to search for anti -trump content and then track down the person, but is much more likely that once they have you they will check your phone to see if you are a dissenter. So any interaction with federal or local authorities will be risky from now on. I just saw a headline of a French scientist being denied entry after immigration searched her phone and found anti Trump messages. If anyone has advice on how to quickly wipe or lockdown a phone, PC, etc. please share. OpSec

The thing with American politics is that Americans love, LOVE TV shows and movies. Everything they do publicly has to be framed, presented, and consumed, as if it were a TV show or movie. So that’s what the political machine does. Kamala Harris raised like a $1000000000. A BILLION dollars! What does the political machine do with that much money? It puts on a damn good show and broadcasts it to the world hoping it’s a better show than what Trump is making. So yes you are watching the same show we are. It’s entertaining, horrifying, hilarious, disgusting, sad and hopeful. But if you want to see what the real work is like in politics then you will have to read the book. A LOT of books, and many Americans don’t like to read.
