You're not wrong, but you're in the wrong place to talk to people about low-probability events and how they multiply. Most Hacker News can't into elementary-school-level probability equations and will instead take the ostrich

Nah, it has nothing to do with what you think. Here's the real reason: https://hard-drive.net/hd/entertainment/luigi-departs-from-m... Look at that picture, look at the date of the article, then consider &quo

Speaking of Drake equations, you should (1) see the other comment here with this account name (2) check out the top Pirate Bay rip of Dark City (which predated that other movie) and turn on the English subtitles and count the number of time

Thank you for you reply, I'll make note of this if I go to a repair shop. Just not sure how the processor definitely works very smooth, very fast, just like as if I restarted it whenever I take it out of the fridge, but the sensor is s

Thank you for the reply and advice – I will probably pursue this if it keeps up, even though it seems to have happened much more dramatically after the last OS update. Regardless, I'm still unsure how it can read these temperatures sin

If the frame is ice cold, wouldn't the heat from the processor dissipate faster into any adjacent thing that is much colder?

Appreciate the reply and advice. Having said that I've had this model for quite a while now and have been doing this since I can remember and never had this issue until the latest macOS update, which from what I've researched seem

Also as a side question, how is it that this works on Reddit but doesn't seem to do likewise on other websites under similar conditions?

I see and thank you for your reply; I just have one more question: If you select "desktop interaction", doesn't that by default "unselect" browser ... um ... "selection"? In other words, when desktop is se

"If it would help, most sane individuals consider gematria to entail "jumping to conclusions" too." I guess I would agree that 1-2 results may very well be; but 1-2 THOUSAND results, all equaling the same number and poin

I get it and thank you, and maybe it's just me since my time investment in HN was mostly during the period of it's founding until 2015 or so at the latest (this account obviously not withstanding). And perhaps I'm an old fart

A response from an account created just an hour ago (at the time of this reply) for seemingly no other purpose than to respond to this post with low-effort, ad-hominem crap is definitely something I will be taking very seriously.

Also, just out of curiosity, when you say, "Your submission history suggests that you jump to conclusions as a chronic habit." ... can you clarify how you yourself infer that from a small series of submissions, only 2 of which has

OK, but consider the long-term: If (especially publicly-traded) companies are driven by the "You must increase profits indefinitely no matter what" ethos of "fiduciary responsibility to stockholders", when you've ra

Honestly, the problem being highlighted is similar to what happens in the gaming community. Some people hack, either out of a sense of trolling or "everyone else is probably doing it, too, so I need to do it to keep up". Eventuall

And speaking of "Jumping to conclusions", you know NOTHING about me and what I do and who I associate with, work with, and sometimes antagonize or the level of technical proficiency they have. I've personally seen them do thi

Also, (if it makes any difference): I've had hacks happen before where the method used was to instantly spike the processor's heat to force an emergency shut-off (couldn't find any indications of sudden spikes in application

Perhaps you can, but can we please stick to the subject?

Assuming you're serious and not just trolling, could you at least describe if it's possible to protect against such things and how?

Actually, never mind. Apparently Google blocks results for Chinese/Russian web hosting companies and all it takes to bypass that is using Yandex.

Okay, one would THINK that of all places on the web, THIS would be the place to ask. Could anyone at least recommend another place to ask such a question?
