Arts & Entertainment - Music & Audio - Rock Music - Indie & Alternative Music, Computers & Electronics - Software - Multimedia Software - Photo & Video Software, Games, Reference - Humanities - History, Reference - Language Resources, Shopping

but i’m actually pretty excited!
google won’t give me ultransound technician adverts like facebook!
it won’t be all “sweet tips on how to lose weight” and “look at this octopus necklace!”
you guys are great.

but really, i’m not entirely what this is for, i think that they want me to correct them, but i’d rather enjoy my ads for boys.

IBM creates one bit of memory with just 12 atoms | The Verge »

shaneguiter:

IBM Research is detailing its quest to find the smallest number of atoms required to store a bit, the fundamental unit of digital data. The answer is just 12, IBM says — a pretty remarkable stat considering that memory in today’s PCs has around a million atoms per bit (by our rough calculations, that’s nearly 69 quadrillion atoms for an 8GB machine). By aligning the atoms in two offset rows of six with alternating magnetic orientation, IBM figured out that it could isolate the bit so that it wouldn’t magnetically interfere with the bits around it.

omg my 4gb of ram could be just a mere 412,316,860,416 atomsss one day

BREAKING NEWS: Web Goes on Strike!

On Jan. 18th there is going to be an all-out strike on the internet. Websites across the internet are going dark in protest of the internet censorship bills in Congress, SOPA and PIPA.

Some of the biggest sites in the world are participating: Reddit, Mozilla. And some others may join (e.g. a leading micro-blogging platform and a popular collaboratively-written encyclopedia), but they need a nudge. If we can get them to join this will be EPIC.

Ask the biggest sites on the internet to join the strike. Click here.
