Stuxnet damaged gas centrifuges by introducing a subtle change in rotational speed over time, eventually the motors failed mechanically.

Adjust your browser's search engine setting for Google and set it to append "&udm=14" to the URL, that'll force it to bring up the "Web" tab without annoying useless "helpful" other stuff.

The "enriewu" thing wasn't a misspelling of "en route", it was someone's name who had arrived in Miami with Jean-Luc and Peggy. It's probably a misspelling of Henry pronounced in French.

Re:Africa's forests have switched from absorbing to emitting carbon
on Friday November 28, 2025 @11:23AM (#46080019)
The vast majority of carbon in trees is pulled from the atmosphere during growth. A dead tree is still made of organic molecules, which have carbon in them. So trees are not "Carbon Neutral", they're "Carbon Negative" until the wood is burned, or it decomposes enough to become crude oil and then, well...

Re:Making a smart bike dumb so it works again

I would imagine it's minimal. I'll never forget a demo I played with at a Science museum as a kid. A dynamo with a crank you can turn, and set of switches that allow you to turn on one, two, or three incandescent bulbs. The crank turns freely without load, and is increasingly more difficult to turn as load is added.

Re:Turning Off Zen 4's Op Cache for Curiosity and Giggles

I ran mitigations=off on my Zen4 until I saw that phoronix article and realised that in most workloads it made essentially no difference, and even harmed performance in others. I no longer run mitigations=off. But on my old i7 7700HQ mitigations=off improved performance by 10-20% depending on workload.

on Wednesday April 03, 2024 @06:17PM (#39923965)
The Apple A8X, found in the iPad Air 2, contains about 3 billion transistors. (This is comparable to the number of transistors in modern desktop computer CPUs as well.) At the scale of the MOnSter 6502, that would take about 885,000 square feet (over 20 acres or 8 hectares) — an area about 940 ft (286 m) square.

And Ah is a measurement of charge, it reduces to Coulombs. Amps is couloumbs per second (Q/t), if you multiply by time again you get (Qt/t) which is just Q, or charge.
