except it is not full end to end ECC, only inside the chips so they can get away with higher internal bit error rates (much like SSDs). "Enterprise" systems will continue to need additional ECC handling with motherboards and chips

We might as well be from different species :) I'd love it if you could elaborate. How do you chat with coworkers remotely if not slack.. IRC? phone? Go around to their house?

Theres truth here but it only really applies to people who have trouble doing effective group work over the Internet. Other people seem to be wired differently.

This may have been improved recently. I downloaded and ran it on my Linux laptop and it worked instantly. the config file was self-documenting.

Is this because they found working remotely using Teams has harmed productivity?

Woah, I wonder how much atmospheric heating of earth these storms are causing. (A quick google of NASA suggests: it can be several gigawatt-hours of power from one event, even accounting for the bulk of it being radiated back into space.)

But for those traditional techniques, they have to be "right there". Presumably this new technology will allow them to disable the vehicle remotely from potentially thousand of miles away.

OK, but how many pages is too many? I can understand what you're saying for say, 1 to 20 pages, but it doesn't make any sense to me to go to hundreds, or worse, thousands of pages.

Thanks for the answers, everyone. It was an innocent question, but it seems to have angered people.

Does anyone else feel that the understanding of historic levels of atmospheric carbon are based on an set of assumptions that are bordering on farcical in the amount of guesswork they require?

Yeah - they shouldn't use it as a tax while still in the early adoption phase. But as costs of having power delivered to your home are rising even as the generation cost falls, it is important to have some kind of support for low incom

Australia was an early mass adopter of suburban rooftop solar and a similar issue played out here. It turns out that the cost of building and maintaining the grid is the majority of the cost of electricity to the home. As the cost of actua

Bitcoin can adjust to almost everything, including new taxes or high energy prices. But a couple of things could make it go to zero: If the government bans it (seems likely). Maybe also if the whales who now own most of it, collude to al
