Only comment so far that is to the point. If I could mod this, I would.

Another possibility for this âoeLinux hardwareâ proposition is PC makers marketing computers equipped with hardware that is well-supported by Linux (i.e., good drivers).

But since lots of drivers are written by the community via reverse-engineering, thereâ(TM)s no way to offer cutting-edge hardware that has good Linux support.

No, I wasnâ(TM)t quoting that, I meant literally.

I donâ(TM)t agree that I use a tool thatâ(TM)s being used by someone to provide any services to me. If we consider that most policemen in Brazil sniff coke, and they provide security to society, the latter uses coke. :D

Anyway, I read customer reviews, not these summaries. I am not even sure where they are.

And I donâ(TM)t use any LLM out there, I donâ(TM)t think they âoeadd valueâ to whatever I do in my life.

Submission + - China's 'artificial sun' sets nuclear fusion record (charmingscience.com)

AmiMoJo writes: China’s “artificial sun,” officially known as the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST), has achieved a groundbreaking milestone in fusion energy research. According to the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), EAST recently sustained high-confinement plasma operation for an unprecedented 1,066 seconds, shattering the previous world record of 403 seconds, also set by EAST in 2023.

This significant achievement marks a crucial step forward in the pursuit of fusion energy, a technology that promises to provide a virtually limitless and clean source of power. Fusion, the process that powers the sun, involves fusing light atomic nuclei to release immense energy. However, replicating this process on Earth presents significant scientific and engineering challenges.

The 1,000-second mark is considered a critical threshold in fusion research. Sustaining plasma for such extended durations is essential for demonstrating the feasibility of operating fusion reactors. This breakthrough, accomplished by the Institute of Plasma Physics under the CAS, signifies a major leap towards realizing the potential of fusion energy.

Now if only the USA would exit UN and NATO, it would be a dream come true!

Go, Donald Duck! America can live without these shitty imternational âoealliancesâ!
