The problem with that is, Japan was willing to fight on after the first bomb. They tried labelling it a natural disaster at first; if the second bomb wasn't dropped, they probably wouldn't have surrendered. Sure they could have waited longer to confirm that, but then there's more troops dying on both sides while they wait - more unnecessary deaths.

I just think drone strikes with sword bombs are cool as fuck, and I'm tired of pretending that they're not

Did Folding@HOME or other distributed computing projects actually make a significant difference in the creation of COVID vaccines? in c/askscience@lemmy.world
[–] rozno@roznotech.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

I hadn't seen that video before, but it's not quite what I'm looking for; it seems that video was made while they were still working on the project, and they were looking for a way to "get it out into the world". Is there a sort of post-mortem analysis of what the project achieved / is still achieving now?

Did Folding@HOME or other distributed computing projects actually make a significant difference in the creation of COVID vaccines? (roznotech.xyz)
 

Like many, when I heard about Folding@HOME and how I could contribute to the fight against COVID, I put my hardware to work. Now that's it has been a while, what effect did those projects ultimately have on the outcome? Did it actually help with the creation of vaccines, or was it effectively just a massive waste of energy?

Has everything gone according to plan? Maybe something has gone particularly good or bad? Have you given up on something already this year, and are saving it for the next?

What is your favorite pre-EA Star Wars game? (roznotech.xyz)
 

Personally it would be Republic Commando - the books were good too, but I just want a sequel!

When hosting on my own machine, should I use a virtual machine or not? (roznotech.xyz)
 

Hey all,

Just wondering what the consensus is on hosting directly on a computer versus virtualization? Right now I'm hosting my Lemmy instance on a Hetzner VPS, but I would like to eventually migrate to my Linux box at home. It currently runs as a media PC (Ubuntu) in the living room, but I always intended to self-host other software on the side since it should be more than capable of doing both (Ryzen 5600G, 16gb DDR4).

I'm just torn though - should I host a virtual machine on it for Lemmy, or run it directly on Ubuntu as-is? I plan to do some further self-hosting projects as well later down the line.
