You’re sort of right. The change in distance from the surface is insignificant, but a spacecraft orbiting a bigger planet has to travel further with each orbit so its speed must be faster to avoid falling out of orbit, even if the gravitational acceleration at its orbital height is the same.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•With Linux, are you using secure boot?
9·4 days agoI don’t see it as necessary. I have full disk encryption set up, which is sufficient to protect my data at rest. Even if I had secure boot set up, a sufficiently skilled agent could physically install a USB sniffer in my keyboard, flash a malicious BIOS to my motherboard, or just install a hidden camera to watch me type my password. And many TPMs have vulnerabilities that I’m sure government agencies are able to exploit.
Because it is.
- The crew’s suits don’t look anything like that.
- The “balloons” on the top don’t look anything like that
- The capsule rides much higher in the water.
- The capsule doesn’t look anything like that (capsule from Artemis 1 but they didn’t change much).
Delete this AI slop.

Technology@lemmy.world•Large physics models are increasingly used to bypass simulation
19·6 days agoThis is definitely AI, but AI is such a vaguely defined term that it’s basically meaningless. Too many people these days mistake it for meaning “a computer that can think like a human” even though it encompasses everything from LLMs to chess playing algorithms to something like Minecraft zombie pathfinding.

6·7 days agoI don’t use Play Services and still get push notifications from Signal, so they’re clearly using an alternative implementation.

Linux@programming.dev•I saved a doomed Windows laptop by embracing Linux
24·13 days agoMint does have a graphical app store. Steam also has a .deb package on their website to download, which opens by default in the GUI installer when you double click it. Using the CLI is fine, but it’s definitely not necessary.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•i just got an ad in my lemmy inbox.
4·15 days agoEven as a joke, sending a real advertisement to people is completely unacceptable and deserves an immediate permanent ban. If they had created an ad for something fictional I’d be a little less annoyed about it but it still seems like a bad idea.

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•Claude Code's Entire Source Code Got Leaked via a Sourcemap in npm, Let's Talk About it
10·16 days agoTheir GitHub repo says they used AI tools to rewrite the entire codebase in Rust (avoiding legal issues I guess?) which does not give me confidence about their use of AI.

32·1 month agoWhy do they focus on targeting trans women so much compared to trans men? Testosterone is a far more regulated drug than estrogen after all.

It’s your phone, it’s your app store, it’s your browser, it’s your email, it’s your storage, it’s your search, it’s your maps, it’s your music, it’s your news, it’s your credit card, it’s your password manager
Google is so deeply integrated into most people’s lives that they can’t imagine going without it.

Technology@lemmy.world•An AI Thought Experiment on Substack Is Sending The Stock Market Spiraling
521·2 months agoIt’s a sure sign of a healthy non-bubble economy when a random Substack post can cause a stock market crash.


It might take them a few more centuries than us to develop the tech, but just because we use chemical engines doesn’t mean it’s the only viable method. I’m sure they’d figure something out eventually.
