Wow, stackoverflow vibes here.


The biggest boost for the platform, however, came from the standoff between India’s ruling party and X. The latter was caught in a tough spot in early 2021, when it refused to give in to the government’s requests to remove certain posts and accounts that were critical of the Modi government.

Ahhh


Wow. Talk about getting triggered.


Hang out in HN long enough, and you'll see what I'm talking about.


TLDR; its the orca equivalent of the latest tiktok trend.


A few days ago, onion published a list of interviews with orcas. Only a few of them were motivated by TicTok.


The pod challenge?


Fifty years ago we would have explained it as religious worshipping behavior, now it's just for fun.


This would be 100 years ago. 50 years ago it would be action against imperialism.


Whale booping and sidehugs. Beware when they start planking.


Or the plot to Finding Nemo


A film literally about the consequences of a young fish 'booping' a boat.

Ah, is it because Orcas aren't fish?


Entropy Kaos System


I half expected this to depict the battle of Verdun in the Edge of Tomorrow movie.


He did 3 separate mass zoom firings in a span of 6 months.


Amusing to see only 6 people having a quad core CPU.


Those were most likely people with a motherboard with 4 CPU slots and with 4 CPUs plonked in there.


I was going to suggest it could be dual-socket, with HyperThreading enabled, but looks like the survey is HyperThreading aware and only counts real cores.

So must be Quad Socket motherboards.


I don't think there was even any dual dual-core solutions for x86 available in 2004... So must have been some quad socket weirdness...


Unless I'm misremembering, the first dual-core CPU on the market was the Athlon 64 X2 in 2005, so I agree that these results are likely from servers running Steam.

Edit: a quick bit of google tells me both Intel and AMD released dual core CPUs in May 2005, with Intel beating AMD by a few weeks, so there you go.


I’m guessing it was game server software running on rack mounted servers.


The pentium D hadn't come out yet in 2004. Which quad core CPU's are you thinking of?
