SDI is definitely still used, and still found on professional monitors. I think locking is not worth it for consumer-grade equipment, where cable reconnexions are rare, but some push-in connectors are better than others. For example, VGA wi

I’m talking about significant cooling and heating, which is what you mentioned. Set your thermostats to 66° F heating and 88° F cooling and compare your electricity gas usage to 72° F/75°F for the year.

I’m confident the market for this is 99% HVAC contractors and repairman rather than consumers. It’s good to know they should be cleaned.

I would be surprised by this, given every time someone left at a company I worked for scrambled to get someone new and seemed to have no real infrastructure for actually hiring someone beyond maybe automated résumé software. If a recruiter

That’s true, but unless you are doing some kind of industrial work (including running very hot computers), you shouldn’t need significant heating or cooling in most of America. The idea that indoors needs to be between 72° (F) and 75° at al

Natural gas (not sure about wood; in most areas it’s abundant) is about 1/3 of the cost of electricity in America, so it’s economically less efficient.

This is true when it’s warm enough outside that you don’t need the heat pump anyway. When the temperature becomes cold, it’s a different story. Heat pumps might make sense when you have a well-insulated house, like the kinds in Northern Eur

A new iPhone every five years means you’ll have a harder time getting one, like whenever a new video game console gets released.

I certainly get a lot less blue screens and lockups than I did in the past, and the OS shuts down locked-up apps more quickly. Group policies have replaced the registry for advanced configuration of the OS. The only time I’ve needed to chan

Comparing growth stocks to indices and value stocks doesn’t make sense. Reading into stock prices alone is known as Technical Analysis and does not have a good track record. It’s pseudoscience.

Not a C64 user, but I did use Apples, Ataris, and IBMs. Booting to BASIC or a cartridge was fast. Booting to a floppy not as much. Reading a tape? That took several minutes.

How long ago did you switch to Mac OS? This sounds like an argument from 2004, not 2022.

Bad smells usually indicate something toxic that destroys you by breathing it. The only analogue to that for sight is extremely bright light.

The black and white Mac monitors and software were carefully tuned to match the output of black and white offset printers, so yeah, they really cared about color before they even had color.

My naïve solution to this would be to build a multi-CPU system instead of making a higher performance CPU.

Considering the most popular religions fundamentally reject bodily autonomy, it shouldn’t be a surprise.

Microphone/headphone combos with a single TRRS jack are fundamentally going to be poor, because the microphone line isn’t balanced. Microphone signals are very low level and pickup noise easily.

This is solved with two set points, 68° for heat and 78° for cold, and appropriate clothing.

Supplements are expensive, and meat substitutes are expensive, so you are really compounding the cost compared to just eating meat. Supplements may not necessarily be vegan either. If a supplement you’re taking is a byproduct of meat produc

This is all based on feelings. In reality most of the market has disappeared into mobile gaming, PC, and Nintendo. Microsoft has plenty of potential marketshare to tap into without getting into a war with Sony, a war that they are likely to
