!oldstrags ik it was one of you dinosaurs
ok, first of all, why tf aren't they just transparent from the get-go? why do I have to go in and manually remove the solid color smh
2econdly, why are FRICKING SPRITES NOT EVENLY SPACED
I can't go in an spit them because they just threw them in there with all different widths !!!
I had to manually keyframe the spritesheet to move around in blender bc that was easier than trying to split it into frames ong fr fr
and there's FRICKING dead space at the end of the line too so the programs that want X rows X columns don't work because it won't devide easily because the guy thought he was clever inserting some ancient butt long forgotten meme
theres no frame of reference you have to pick a point to hold still and that's I assume how we end up with this:

In a groundbreaking use of teleportation, critical units of a quantum processor have been successfully spread across multiple computers, proving the potential of distributing quantum modules without compromising on their performance.
While the transfer only took place over a space of two meters (about six feet) in an Oxford University laboratory, the leap was more than enough to emphasize the feasibility of scaling quantum technology by teleporting quantum statesΒ across an 'internet' of connected systems.
Teleportation is a quirk of physicsΒ that only makes sense through a quantum lens, where objects exist in a blur of possible characteristics until processes of measurement force them to adopt each state.
By mingling the undecided states of different objects inΒ an act known as entanglement, and then carefully choosing the right kinds of measurements to make on one, it's possible to use the answers to force an entangled object some distance away to adopt (and destroy) the original object's quantum identity.
It might not be the kind of teleportation that would beam passengers through the vacuum of space in a blink, but it's perfect for sharing the blur of information necessary for logical operations in a quantum processor.
"Previous demonstrationsΒ of quantum teleportation have focused on transferring quantum states between physically separated systems,"Β saysΒ lead author Dougal Main, a physicist at Oxford University.
"In our study, we use quantum teleportation to create interactions between these distant systems."
Where classical computers use binary 'on or off' switches to perform strings of computations on bits of information,Β quantum computersΒ use mathematically complex distributions of possibilities known as qubits, typically represented in a simple feature of an uncharged particle such as a charged atom.
To make this process practical, hundreds or even thousands of such particles need to have their yet-to-be-decided states entangled with one another in a restricted fashion, without intrusive objects weaving their own possibilities in and messing up the calculations.
Scaling current technology to this level is complicated by obstacles that requireΒ error-correcting processesΒ orΒ shieldingΒ to preserve the delicate quantum states long enough for them to be measured.
Linking a number of smaller processors across a network to create a kind of quantum supercomputer is another solution. While quantum information can be transmitted in the form of a light wave, the potential for its state to be irreversibly corrupted along the way makes it an impractical option.
Teleportation requires the receipt of measurements the old-fashioned way β through reliable binary data. Once sent, operations at the receiving end can tweak their own entangled particle until it effectively looks like the original.
The all-important quantum blur of the teleported spin state in the Oxford University experiment was an 86 percent match with the original, more than good enough for it to serve as a logic gate for a simple operation known as aΒ Grover's algorithm, which succeeded with 71 percent efficiency across the two quantum processors.
"By interconnecting the modules using photonic links, our system gains valuable flexibility, allowing modules to be upgraded or swapped out without disrupting the entire architecture," saysΒ Main.
Having options for restructuring a quantum network could diversify the applications for such technology, repurposing networks of computers into cowtools that can measure and test physics at its most fundamental level.
This research was published inΒ Nature.

In addition to being FBI director he's gonna do this, which is carzy. At least the last guy was a life-long ATF agent involved in the Waco massacre and gun control advocate
literally a fox in the henhouse or some other applicable allegory situation

Really elucidating (and depressing) read, Matt Christman's fate really is a fitting metaphor for the dirtbag left. The movement ultimately went nowhere with all its personalities either fading into obscurity or chudding out like A+D, forever trapped in the mind prison of "what if Bernie got elected?"
The landlord stuff is especially depressing, it's pretty clear by now that leftism correlates heavily with personal and financial administrative incompetence, but the fact that these people make six figures a month and are still renting + faux seething about their landlord (clearly for their loser audience) in their 30s really boggles the mind.
I think in the end the dirtbag left, with it's airs of cold cynicism, realpolitik and class analysis will be remembered as naive and unsophisticated.
Wanna specify with this I'm absolutely not making fun of/gloating about Matt Christman here, I wouldn't wish anyone (especially with a family) to go through that.

I posted about this too... I hated him being abusive and now this "he died" gaslamping stuff is giving me serious panic

I didn't know this existed as a site but it's cool af. Found it looking for ultima clones.
