That feels so bad for signal integrity, especially at 5+ GT/s

And brakes as well. EV are, for the most part, greenqashing designed to sell you more cars you wouldn’t need in a better designed world.

My “everyone” was a bit too wide I think. I’m not talking about everyday people of course. I’m talking about 50+ employees companies, that would save money by hiring a sysadmin and running their own servers. I know of companies with thousands of employees that pay millions on Azure and AWS and have no in-house infrastructure. That’s how you get to Amazon running half of the internet

If you tell me gasoline yeah probably (diesel generator to power electric motors is done in big ships), caol I highly doubt it.

But apart from pollution per se, an electric car used everyday would require at least 50% of a household power budget to charge (2-3 kW). If every single ICE vehicle would be immediately swapped to electric, I doubt many countries would be able to cope with the increased power consumption. That’s why we need more energy infrastructure before a full switch. Or you know, less cars and more public transport.

Electric vehicles are not a solution for environmental problems, not now at least, they pollute when building the batteries and, unless nuclear energy is widespread, they will be powered by coal/gas making them pretty polluting. They will be a solution only when we have cleaner energy available.

Bonus: people should stop being lazy and learn to setup a server infrastructure instead of using “the cloud”. Your data are safer, you save money and give less power to gargantuan cloud companies.

But also remember to clear cookies and cache when closing the browser, so all the collecting ia useless

Yeah, but carrier locked phones are illegal in many places (and always have been), aren’t they still allowed in the US?

Especially on an M1. In a different architecture you don’t have Apple’s translation layer, so you’re stuck with ARM software only

If you only wany to retrieve your files, run the crack on a VM, it will probably run like shit, but you don’t need to do so all the time

You might not like AI for what it stands or for the negative impact it has on the world, but you can’t deny that LLM like we have today are a marvel of technology, an incredibly complex technology that would have felt science fiction just a decade ago.

CS:GO is a free game. I was wondering about pirating a game that is 100% online. Are people downloading this only playing against bots? Are there going to be private servers also rolledback to a previous version? I’m just curious

What’s the benefit of this? Cracking an online game that is free anyway

I think Skibidi Toilet is way healthier than mainstream comedic tropes like “fat guy funny” or “gay guy effemminate” that were soooo common in mainstream TV and now are (luckily) fading out.

Brainrot is equally stupid but more self-concious and more honest.

And to be honest, the first time I stumbled upon Skibidi Toilet, I thought it was a 2012 Garry’s mod stupid video, game me the same vibe.

However, Ai-slop brainrot (brainslop? Sloprot?), that feels worse. I know I’m pulling out the “kids these days card”, but what really changed is the media: TikTok and all the Tok-likes+AI are becoming better and better at rotting your brain. I don’t know if they really worsen the attention span, even temporarily, but I’m convinced it reduces people’s happiness and is the closest we can get to mind control as the consiracists intend it to be

If the situation turns out where Trump is falling (unlikely but not impossible), you accept a plea deal with current Trump allies that will wait for him to look away and throw him under the bus, so someone else will take power.

That works under the assumption that Trump falls and crumbles

We really live in crazy times

With the amount of work they are putting in compatibility layers technology, I wouldn’t be surprised if you could run The Witcher 3 on it out of the box.

At least they tried to hide it, now they don’t.

As for the cold war, if you consider the conflict USA-USSR they clearly won: Russia was, at least at some point, equally powerful to the USA technologically and militarly, what one did first, the other caught up pretty quickly, then the Soviet Government collapsed for various reasons, and they couldn’t catch up, now the USA is arguably the most technologically advanced country in the world, in many aspects.

China is catching up, but they are in no way equally capable.

I know, what I’m saying is that latte = milk in italian, so if you ordered latte in Italy you would get a glass of milk, that’s what I mean by mistranslation

English has a really bad habit of mistranslating things, for some reason latte = coffee+milk, while latte means milk
