lichess.org/AV8hz3POOZPU That was tense...

@Shad ping

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda 0:02? that's crazy haha

oops

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard it was 23:02 actually, still no summer clock.

(it will be in 8 days)

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard eh who is lingvista? Just random chess player?

Well it's Purim in Israel, @Mithical you do anything special? Some places and people don't celebrate due to the war, but some still do, including schools, though in somewhat different way, no big parties etc.

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda Purim is Sunday :)

today is Ta'anit Ester

@Mithical yeah, I meant people starting to celebrate it, e.g. this whole week kids in school have "pajama day", "upside down day" etc.

@Mithical oh oops. Always forget about it....

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda right, from the infinite lobby.

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda well, I'm at home sick, so I'm not fasting in any case

@ElementsInSpace Duality of men. Here, someone wonders if they should take cheese somewhere else when the room was empty anyway. Somewhere else, I go to a room to see if there are news related to that room topic only to be presented with people discussing how disturbing some Lifehacks question are... by oneboxing them there and shoving them in your face.

@Mithical erf

@SPArcheon Other than my ⅔ of a degree in nuclear physics apparently being useless in Atomic chess, I was concerned with the possibility of losing a game to baby Petəíŕd and having my blunders on display here for all to see.

@ElementsInSpace Baby tiger dududu baby tiger dududu baby tiger?

@ElementsInSpace roar.

You meant it as joke right?

@SPArcheon More or less. Actually, I think there is a few more “du”s.

@Mithical oh, hope you'll get better soon! Hope just a צינון?

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard respect, @Elem's baby must be very smart. :D

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda Elem didn't mean I'm their baby.

@ElementsInSpace 2/3?

Triple major?

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard well for me it would be respect if someone as Elements (in Space!) will call me baby. ;)

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda you're a baby.

@JourneymanGeek flagging

You're not Elements!

Well, not in Space.

Maybe Elements In Journey.

Triple major Bach, Variation 1: Shadow Wizard Returns.

lol

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard Quantum mechanics says that even classically impossible events have an non-zero probability.

@ElementsInSpace like the engine that Adams imagined?

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda We're all in space

@JourneymanGeek but we're not Elements, so the combo is unique.

We're all made up of elements

@JourneymanGeek “⅔” as in: I gave up after 8 years (and a liquid nitrogen burn) to become a visual artist / music composer.

ah

The irony is that I never would have burnt my hand with -196°C liquid nitrogen if I hadn’t been wearing the “safety” glove.

And the burn wasn’t the thing that made me quit, it was the fact that the laboratory demonstrators didn’t seem to care.

@ElementsInSpace how were you able to burn the elite cold!? Now the entire world will suffer because of the global warming.

@SPArcheon Cheese... rofl

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda lol, good old times...

@ElementsInSpace I was hoping it implied something like falling in one of the Jusenkyo springs...

@Sha ping

I saw some news about the Neuralink brain implant from yer usual Musk visionary hallucinations.

Two questions:

first:

> The N1 Implant is powered by a small battery charged wirelessly from the outside via a compact, inductive charger that enables easy use from anywhere.

so, basically... I have to point a wireless charger at my head to charge the battery?

We went from "smartphones fry your brain" to "plug the charger in your brain"? Nice....

Second question...

15 years later we still haven't made something that you can wear on the brain instead of implanting in the brain?

or... more seriously... why should we focus on BCI (brain-computer-interface) implants instead of BCI wearable devices?

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard well it only pinged the first 10, and many people don't like random pings, but guess you already learned that over time...

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard pong

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda ping

@SPArcheon yeeep. Then they will be really surprised why they get tumors in their head, and sew the company, just to see something like "Huh! Your Fault!" written in the contract they signed, and rightfully so.

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda in theory its the only way to do a 'sealed' charging of an implant

But hey, at least they'll enjoy really cool stuff while they're alive. Worth it? Perhaps.

infections would be an issue if you just had a USB C slot to the head

and in theory, I'd say using implants to control prostetics make sense but its tech that needs to be considered

@JourneymanGeek and that is the second question: are we sure it needs to be an implant in the first place?

@JourneymanGeek in such cases thinking inside the box is lethal. Need to wait for something like bio battery, charged by the body.

But people don't have such patience, so they risk their lives. Meh.

@SPArcheon I'm not a neuroscientist in my free time

Neither do I, but surely such thing is possible. Or will be.

Read only? maybe not. If you want to feed back it may be needed

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda I think a lot of 'early' adoptors would be folks with impared quality of life

@JourneymanGeek pong

I mean, I am all for it if they manage to build some implant to give blind people some for of sight - Star Trek's Hemmer style...

@JourneymanGeek I talk about those games and "cool stuff" done for money only.

But I do wonder if we really need a battery in our heads to turn on the air conditioner

@SPArcheon ah no

but lets say you were a quadruple quadropleggic, and the surgery could make you walk again?

I also would assume military applications eventually

@JourneymanGeek but the surgery probably won't be a wifi device in your brain to remote control your smartphone or to move your mouse pointer... without a mouse

@SPArcheon needs to start somewhere

@JourneymanGeek not really, you can see we already have android level prosthetics that attach to your nervous system and can thus be operated with your mind as a regular arm or leg.

The issue is that they cost A LOT and we prefer to spend on bombs to throw at our neighbor instead.

@SPArcheon read only

in the sense that they read your impulses and act, but not feedback no?

@SPArcheon sadly

uhm meta.stackexchange.com/questions/398619/i-am-here-now-it-s-time do the thing, please.

@JourneymanGeek fours year ago

Oj fine. Its mad un-ncessary science and we're all doomed

we have the technology to really change the life of many people for the better... but we don't.

yup

now you probably get this old remark...

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda Guess who is the author of #9600000th message on this server. No searching now! :P

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda AFAIK it pinged almost nobody from that list, because they haven't been in the room.

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard u

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard ohh lol

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda nah, but close ;)

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard me

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda oN

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard Geek

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda nah

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard SPA

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda nah, btw, this user is the one I miss ;(

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard ah, so not even in Tavern? That's misleading! Zoe!

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda hmm why would I miss her? lol

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard dunno

So anyway no idea, you win.

Petlin.

(or I can just check, but too lazy)

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard ah, thought it's recent. Even more misleading. lol

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda lol well, how can be the message with #9600000 id recent in this server!? :P

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard I mean recent days or even weeks, I don't really follow on the id's. :D

Anyway, this as well:

9300000

4 is Smokey and 5 is deleted or in private room.

hehe wonder what was the #1st message.

@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard test message lost forever as far as I remember

There was some discussion about it, think maybe even with balpha.

They had lots of test messages, and just wiped them all when chat was delivered and started to be actually used.

Or something like that.

Ahh

Got to finish something small at work, then home for the weekend... cya!

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda I need to catch you soon! When I remember that I have to ask you something, you go away!

lol

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda with that attitude Tink could already play UltraBullet lol
