This is pretty run of the mill for any German industrial supplier, all the .de top level executives are huffing from the same paper bag of "Industry 4.0" and designing their marketing websites to resemble buzzfeed. The enabling ultimate precision shopping carts article is something special even by those standards though. https://www.trumpf.com/en_US/produc...customer-story/

So I looked up trumpf and quantum computing and I tried to remember how quantum computers work (lol I don't know) and I had a dream vision of Trump describing how quantum computers work:Trump posted:y'see, there are these little tiny, so incredibly tiny, the smallest things ever, things called atoms. And a quantit computer uses the exact speed and position of atoms to ask questions and get answers, like instead of writing a program to figure things out, you ask the atom "hey, what's the answer here" and then the computer watches as the atoms form a wave. When that wave breaks, the atoms say "this is the answer." And asking questions of atoms is a lot easier than programming. Scientists right now are just trying to work out how to see atoms clearly, you can't use a microscope because atoms are too small, individual light waves just miss them. It's a great mystery. e: quote:Lasers against lightning strikes: dream or reality?

I went through some old posts in this thread for context and I saw this post about dream visions, which seems about the right style for a Twoday story.twoday posted:Dante also decided to write his masterpiece in the style of Dream Vision, which was an early medieval style of poetry that featured a protagonist going on tours of bizarre landscapes populated with demigods and monsters. A lot of them were written using a technique that involved a monk adopting a very unusual sleep schedule and lots of prayer, with the ultimate result that the writer would end up writing at night in a sort of half-conscious lucid-dreaming trance state. I decided to keep it going with the Blake theme because it fits and I like it, in particular the doodle frames around the edges and the written script. The previous drawing I posted is one of three things I’ve drawn, that were more than doodle, in over a decade. Like I said previously, I drew it by hand. However, I did trace the main people outlines to get me started. Since that seemed to go pretty well and took me several hours, I figured for this one I’d spend like twice as much time drawing entirely freehand (because why not torture myself after a successful experiment by making it way harder, lol art). I actually didn’t think I’d like what I ended up with, but in the it came out better than expected. I guess maybe the moral of this story is to do things and you might be good at them. Anyway. Take a look

So the spirit of Herman Cain, dead from Covid-19, is still encouraging people to not wear masks to halt the spread of Covid-19 which is a dick move Though I suppose also like Cicero's ghost haunting dark age Rome, telling people typhoid isn't a big deal

I don't know what's sadder: that the news is so crazy that "heat rays" were sought to be used against peaceful protesters and the president confuses the Finns and Austrians with wood elves, or that same president can lie so **boringly** about up to 8 thugs taking a king air somewhere or something I mean, say what you will about Ming the Merciless, he had panache

Has this come up? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asemic_writing It's the proper term for illegible madman writing apparently. Seemed extremely relevant to this thread.

You know how rocket engines are sometimes described as barely controlled continuous explosions? A NSWR (Nuclear Salt Water Reactor) is like that but instead of normal explosions its atomic explosions. In over simplified terms its basically a rocket engine where instead of fuel and oxidizer you shoot out a stream of sub critical dissolved uranium salts such that it goes critical immediately after leaving the engine. Giving you a nice continuous nuclear explosion to explore the solar system with. Note scientists arent sure if this would actually result in a usable engine. Edit: unless you meant why post that in this thread, then I dont know either. Communist Zombie has issued a correction as of 17:18 on Sep 22, 2020 |

A jezebel article on people having TROMP re-election nightmares.quote:Whether there is a national trend in election-induced nightmares is unclear, but as November inches closer, it seems only natural that people are experiencing an uptick in anxiety. A few weeks into covid-19 lockdown, it seemed as though everyone was experiencing intense dreams. Not necessarily nightmares, but dreams laden with unease. This phenomenon was documented in several publications, from The Washington Post, to Yale Medicine, to the paranoia peddlers at WebMD. It also mentions a book that might be of interest: quote:In the 1930s, German writer Charlotte Beradt began collecting the dreams of people who, like her, were having strange dreams after Hitler’s rise to power. In 1966, she released The Third Reich of Dreams, a collection of 75 dreams from those living under Nazi rule which were, as Brandt put it, “dictated to them by dictatorship.” When the New Yorker revisited Beradt’s book in 2019, they noted that the Austrian-born psychologist Bruno Bettelheim wrote in the afterword that “the dreamer can recognize deep down, what the system is really like.”
