In this instance, I’d say it doesn’t.

The lockdown from COVID stunted a lot of development. Then the tablets and just that kids are always on a screen drive it home. That and kids and parents don’t care as much about failing grades, and the “no child left behind” has gotten about as corrupt and lazy as our government. Now it just means “your kids going to the next grade, regardless”

Well that sucks. I dug into your info a bit as well, and it seems true. Registered ecc ram that servers tend to use won’t work on consumer desktops.

Good thing I don’t plan on upgrading my PC for at least a few more years.

As a side note, I’m pissed off the ram and storage inventory issue has delayed Valves new steam VR headset release. I’ve never bought VR anything before and was looking forward to it.

All the ram being bought up is going to end up in the 2nd hand market as the hardware is all liquidated out. The prices will crash, and despite manufacturers not increasing their productions lines to build more ram, will still have to compete against themselves from the used market, meaning they won’t be able to keep trying to charge crazy high prices.

The price crash is going to be great. Such a massive yo-yo. Most of the AI companies will just completely eat shit out of it.

I’m not sure if you’re gaslighting, dumb, or just have the memory of a goldfish.

Did you not know that in 1994 Democrats passed an assault rifle ban and magazines couldn’t hold more than 10 rounds? It lasted for an entire decade. Joe Biden talked about trying to do it again, but harsher. It was also 1934 when Democrats created an incredibly high priced tax stamp requirement for automatic weapons, which kept most people from affording a purchase if they wanted one.

It doesn’t matter if you know a bunch of gun owning Democrats. So do I. That has no bearing on the fact that a bunch of Republicans vote red no matter what because “the Democrats want to take their guns”.

Argue semantics about this however you like, but in the US, as far as 95% of the public is concerned, their are two parties. The left are Democrats and the right are Republicans.

Generally speaking, for at least the past 40 years the Democrats have been the ones to try taking away gun rights, while the right has prevented it or put them back. Many people who vote Republican straight up do it for the sole reason of “the Democrats want to take my guns”.

That’s the reputation the Democrats have. It’s true of them, and it’s stupid of them.

Full Metal Alchemist:Brotherhood (Nearly perfect)

The first 9 seasons of the Simpsons (great little 22 minute stories. Character depth is episode dependent, but some of the best episodes of anything television has ever offered.)

Battlestar Galactica (Had some iffy plotlines along the way, but great character development and intriguing story)

That doesn’t make much sense as a law against printers, since it’s far easier and just as illegal to grind off the serial numbers on a gun.

I could make a working metal gun in a day with hand tools and a trip to home depot. Guns aren’t magical complicated devices. It’s a handle and a tube and a pin that smacks a bullet.

This bill is the epitome of stupid and one of the reasons the left has had so many issues becoming the party leaders. Stop trying to play “big brother” and stop trying to fuck with the 2nd amendment.

It’s been known for a while. SEO is pretty easy for doing AI manipulation. All part of why ai sucks and the bubble will end up bursting.

The EPA in the US doesn’t do that, buddy. They give 2 separate ratings. You also don’t understand what MPGe is measuring. MPGe is a pure electric mode. The gas used rating in MPGe is for fuel equivalent it would take to charge the battery back up.

It then also shows the MPG rating, and that rating is what you’ll get after the battery from driving in all electric mode would be too drained and the ice motor will be doing most of the work.

You’re from the US.The US fixed the bullshit method of claimed fuel mileage about two decades ago. This article is all about the EU. Their official fuel efficiency ratings still have room for bullshit.

Your special needs student using a calculator has pretty much no bearing on this conversation.

It said a small zucchini or a peeled cucumber. So that sounds about right?

Trying to keep old stuff alive in a digital world is stupid. I do think that kids need to learn to think and research on their own, so AI and grammar and spelling corrections should be disallowed from the laptops and Chromebooks. Having an algorithm fix everything for you and write your papers is developmentally bad.

Yeah. I was left pissed and felt ripped off. High seas from that point on.

Or worse. I think it was the original Ninja Turtles movie that I had owned on DVD and the quality of it kind of sucked. Years later I got it on blu ray and I swear they just ripped one of the DVD copies to make the blu ray disc.

It mattered more back in the analog days, I think. Now that it’s all digital, and going through dac’s, its all just about being good enough for 1’s and 0’s to get through. “Noise” doesn’t exist for digital audio. It either works, or it doesn’t.

My house is charged. It’s a fire hazard.

It is waaaaaaay more likely that they’ll be an issue with an EV or ice car in your garage to catch fire than a storage battery like this. This or sodium batteries can’t have a runaway thermal “event”. The chemical reactions aren’t there for it.

The sodium batteries rolling out to market right now should be good for it. Just waiting for them to get out and into use for a few years to make sure their isn’t any immediate unforseen bugs. I just want a 30 year battery and not a 10 year, and time itself degrades lithium based batteries quite a lot. They can make one that will last over 500,000 ev miles, but don’t count on it doing it and lasting 20+ years.
