On a laptop specifically, the fans can at least blow the heat away while a fanless machine just distributes the heat though the laptop body, so you have to rest your hands on a heated keyboard. Having fans doesn't always make for a coo

If my steering wheel isn't connected to my front wheels mechanically, that's asking for a lot of trust. Previously a severe mechanical issue would be the only thing to worry about. Maybe on an EV with always connected and charged

>At least the steering wheel and pedals still behave the same. For now, companies are experimenting with drive by wire. Don't think I like that concept.

From what I can see X is arguing that because they allowed previously banned hate content back onto the site by changing the terms and conditions, the CCDH reports were done to intentionally harm the company. CCDH has been operating on X si

Yeah, the main issue is if they are charging per token it's essentially them adding an extra fee per response, like a gas fee in Etherium. But thinking about it as an API is really strange, I don't expect an API to do anything but

Eh, there has always been an amount of bending rules or capitalizing on design gaps in racing. NASCAR and Formula 1 have always had people adding things they shouldn't, from extra long, curly fuel pipes which can hold nearly an extra g

NASCAR vehicles don't have windows, so according to this article[1] it's an attempt to reduce drag by reducing air trying to come into the window. In this context, a glove with mesh between the fingers could make for a better &quo

I'm guessing it's just a very long (and growing) list of things they aren't supposed to discuss and rules about the things they can.

I was just reading about how Temu is finding their main market is older women. The same demographic targeted by most infomercials...so now they have to choose to embrace that or branch out. The latter is potentially expensive, while the for

Dead Internet Theory meets enshitification. The internet was allowed to grow into a network primarily designed to connect companies with consumers to extract value. The people who make waves (good or bad) are banned from platforms because s

As I understand FCC Part 15, devices are not allowed to generate interference on purpose and are supposed to accept interference by design. In the US this does seem to violate Part 15 but if it's small enough broadcast and only at the

The main reason I know people invest in real estate is because it's considered a relatively safe store of value, even if it incurs losses. "Location, location, location" is the mantra of real estate as well, as some places wi

The point is that justifying something because life is "better" by some metric while calling the opposing side "insane" for having reservations about something already proven to be potentially dangerous is flawed. I ch

Crypto was a solution looking for a problem for the most part, and the problem people tried to solve with it tended toward "get rich quick." This is why there are so many scams, as you pointed out, and the volatility is great for

Somewhat reminds me of installing Windows 98 SE from inside Windows 98 SE (just after installing Windows 98 SE) with special command flags so it wouldn't install with ACPI compatibility the second time, freeing up enough IRQ addresses
