  • I’m running PopOS on a computer for wathing media at home. I’m not too impressed. I read a bunch of comment threads recommening it so I treid it out. They seem a bit unstable – that at least falls in OP middle ground. I made an update and dpms management was just different, like the screen is no longer turning itself off. I’ve had some thing like this happen on it. It’s not breakage, it’s a bit annoying. “Just works”? Eh, sure, kinda’.













  • What they are doing is just nonsense. You can use the four normal constants: gravitational, speed of light, plancks constant, boltzman constant, or the Planck ones, also four (time, mass, length, temperature). What they do is just rewrite the G, c and h-bar, the only ones that appear here, in their equations and it turns out just only two appear in the equations. Which two? Planck length and “energy”, where planck energy is a combination of time and mass… so it is still three! All this nonsense to try to say something of no particular interest: if you look at a very small subset of expressions you can probably redefine some constants conviniently to get rid of others.
