All of these have very real physical effects, and human life cannot exist without them.

Creepy story! Do you still have the recording?!

Gotta mention The Thing (1982). Impeccable cinematography, sounds, colors, everything. Practical effects that are still unsettling today, and good old fashioned “humans are not enough and never will be” horror.

Honestly, I can’t give you the info you need as I haven’t lived in Alberta… But it does have a reputation for being the most right wing Christian part of Canada, so compared to Oregon I’d say it might be a downgrade

Corruption here (Canada) still happens federally and especially at the provincial level (like Doug Ford, which has many blatant examples and faces no consequences). Municipally (county level) I have not noticed as much, and my municipality seems to have a great local government that functions well… I’ve even spoken up and had a small issue resolved with little effort.

However I think you’ll find if that kinda stuff grinds your gears you’ll still have a better time in Canada than the US, despite the problems (and we do have problems).

As an Ontarian I also gotta say the bit about the premiers is also spot on.

Or it keeps doubling even well after its surpassed the human population, and we all have to keep hitting “pass” in turns forever, and if even a single person gives up then boom.

At a similar pay scale, I’ve been required to go into homes where folks had COVID. Coworkers have been shot at. I’ve seen things I really would have preferred not to. No job is perfectly sane in that sense.

American? Because this is not normal up here in Canada.

I’d like to second what Veraxus said. I have a steam deck and the ease of use factors are off the chart. At this point my gaming PC sits nearly entirely unused, I do everything on my steam deck, even playing Caves of Qud lol

Unless it’s like a super minimalist web 1.0 vibe, like basically almost pure html barebones text.

You could have an “about this website” section that lists the tools and packages you used, and so on. If I saw that on a candidates website (a little section detailing how the page was made and crediting sources) I’d be insanely impressed. That’s the kind of person you know you can work alongside.

Thanks lol I struggled with how to format this link

https://kbin.social/m/genart -> it’s a community for sharing and discussing generative art!

Yeah artificial gravity I was thinking more along the lines of faking it via magnetism.

Albecuire drive I was just wrong about, you’re right it’s not a maybe it’s a nearly 100% no lol.

Sorry just excited.

Interesting I hadn’t seen that. Do you have a source I could check out? There’s six authors so it’d help figure out what you’re referring to

Afaik they did build it in real life, and the paper in fact is about the process for manufacturing it, not just about the properties or simulations.

People have replicated the simulations so far, but are still working on replicating the manufacturing process, as it has low yeild and some variability apparently

Maybe (or at least an albecuire drive)

Maybe

Probably not

Also some more “basic” things like cheap MRI without requiring helium (which we are running out of), cheap and easy magnetic levitation (more available high-speed trains)

My understanding (limited) is yes. If you want quantum secure cryptography you need to use specific algorithms designed for it.

You got a title for that one? Sounds like something I’d enjoy
