AI Thread Summary
To read PostScript files on Windows XP, users can download "Ghostview," which requires "Ghostscript" to function properly. While some find Ghostview challenging to set up, it is a recommended solution. Alternatively, Adobe Distiller can be used to convert PostScript files into PDF format, providing another effective method for accessing the content. For additional software options, searching on download sites like www.download.com may yield further solutions.

I've always used Adobe Distiller to convert postscripts into acrobat files.
Here's an upcoming presentation from the grad school I attended about applying AI to fundamental physics, namely, analyzing high-energy scattering data:

Asus Vivobook S14 flip. The power button is wrecked.
Unable to turn it on AT ALL.
We can get into how and why it got wrecked later, but suffice to say a kitchen knife was involved:
These buttons do want to NOT come off, not like other lappies, where they can snap in and out. And they sure don't go back on.
So, in the absence of a longer-term solution that might involve a replacement, is there any way I can activate the power button, like with a paperclip or wire or something?
It looks...
In my discussions elsewhere, I've noticed a lot of disagreement regarding AI. A question that comes up is, "Is AI hype?" Unfortunately, when this question is asked, the one asking, as far as I can tell, may mean one of three things which can lead to lots of confusion. I'll list them out now for clarity.
1. Can AI do everything a human can do and how close are we to that?
2. Are corporations and governments using the promise of AI to gain more power for themselves?
3. Are AI and transhumans...
