As an Iranian, yeah sounds about right. The Ayatollah is so full of shit. With that said please be sure to be careful to not be racist. The Iranian people are all great people, it is the government who is evil.

Wow… I didn’t know you could get a quantum processor for so cheap

This is what happens when there's a Raspberry Pi shortage.

Didn't they have a "Stealth Fighter" that people spotted generic General Aviation equipment in and was basically a hilarious fantasy mockup? Shocking!

LOL I did not know about that. That's hilarious!

It's insane that they took a picture with a dev board and thought that would fly

Audio jacks, VGA, and HDMI, I think. Things you'd expect from a quantum board.

Do you really expect the to break encryption, and explore quantum probabilities without being able to listen to Spotify?

Maybe a dev board was so revolutionary to them they thought it was quantum tech

[–] J_Ditz100@lemmy.one 9 points 2 years ago

Is the board in the picture what they tried to pass off as a quantum processor?

There’s no way anyone actually fell for that

They probably used it to watch Interstellar so they could get some of that sweet sweet Quantum Data
