Putin says Russia is close to creating cancer vaccines
  • It's totally possible and it already exists. You train your immune system (that's the complicated part, you have to feed it some part of cancer cells and make it understan that's the bad guys. Which is very complicated) to fight the cancerous cells.

    Let's not firget there are around 300 families of cancer and there isn't any vaccine against all of them obviously.

    That said, from russia it is obvious bs.

  • My instance is working well on 0.19.2 finally with the caveat that it (still) need a daily reboot (docker).

    So yes I think it's wise to wait a bit more.

    Your next Windows PC may need at least 16GB of RAM
  • Well you'll need X GB to use a X GB file whatever the OS, here windows seems to need 16 just to run which is quite ridiculous.

    how's your year going, Beehaw
  • Oh not joy, Fake joy!

    Hang in there OP, I left the company I worked for early last year for reasons like that. Sure isn't the easiest thing to do (x-gen here) but I feel like it's always tm a good solution when your job sucks(the soul out of you).

    Get ready to hear more about "pre-internet" times
  • Yeah sure is, but hopefully it's the new wave of stuff and we'll sort it out (it sure feels like this new shiny drug IMO), like with work from home and less bureaucracy I guess. Hope for. 😊

    Why do hardly any straight men write about sex and dating?
  • BDP was interesting like ten years ago, then it went to center on not bragging/bragging and even shaming. Well that was what I felt anyways.

    It's like being tall, can't complain without acknowledge you're lucky being tall (so the actual problem just goes out the window).

    Get ready to hear more about "pre-internet" times
  • Yeah there were comics or some 180 pages catalogue, or even a "porny mag" (no sex, some titties or the one big flash) in the bunch of stuff.

    People were all alone at almost all times so people did a bit of anything whenever they felt like it.

    It was a crazy time compared to now in that manner, like you'd walk home and no one would worry if you weren't like one or two hours late. Meeting up? Other is 1h late? Yeah there were probably some problem (it happened to all of us), or they decided to not come...

    So I had my café where I went, you met those who made it :-)

    Ha ha went off the rails there, cheers & good night from the EU!

    Get ready to hear more about "pre-internet" times
  • Yeah gen-x here, at the beginning there were nothing.

    Then I got this "home computer" with the blazing speed at 1MHz (yeah, 0.001GHz and quite unoptimized) bringing me wonders above comprehension.

    And then it got faster, better, bigger, smaller, over and over and over ... It felt crazy whaen anything doubled like speed, memory, discs, screen resolution, internet speed, ...

    I feel todays computers are more than enough (except for research basically) and that was a crazy arc, from nothing to basic completeness.

    Well that's how I feel it anyways 💖

    What was your favorite read of 2023?
  • I put down The Prague Cemetery by Umberto Eco and lazily enjoyed Charles Stross' The Atrocity Archives.

    According to wikipedia it mixes the genres of; Lovecraftian horror, spy thriller, science fiction, and workplace humour, which is quite accurate for a starter IMO.

    Go enjoy it geeks!

    When was a game's price worth it to you?
  • Red Alert & World of Warcraft.

    I guess Diablo 2 but I didn't have the possibility to buy it back in the day. Buying games wasn't as straightforward as buying a CD of music where I lived.
