I was able to get a tour of <redacted>'s factory. And it was super cool. My mother in law was with me and she was very surprised. "They have a cafeteria with cheap, great food, showers, rooms with beds for naps. This is awes

Completely tangential to testing that the service connects: I have a young child and we've done practice "what do you do in an emergency" things, but are there any "fake 911" type services where a young child can ca

Certainly a brass headboard doesn't have a semiconductor in it. But that doesn't mean the story is bullshit. Just that it's not working in the way they think it is. Heres an example of a thistle being used to convert an AM si

A few games I play have DDG bangs that take you directly to the fandom sites, even though the games now have their own self hosted wiki. Perfect exactly would be _minecraft_. If you search for "!minecraft dirt" it takes you to th

~8 million downloads (and thats assuming duplicates don't get recounted?), vs 60 million copies sold [1] is still barely ~15%. This might mean that for PC, its more like 8 million out of 16 million and 50% of PC players are modding. S

Interesting. I do that a lot, which is partially why I'm concerned about count. However, if I'm paying for Kagi, it would be because I want to cut off using other search engines. Either I trust DDG and it's privacy and don&#x

Are the chargers/ports on cars easy enough to swap out, or are we manufacturing ewaste? If I were to buy a car with CCS today, and then in 2024, NACS wins, and all cars going forward have NACS, and all charging stations change to NACS

The thing that has held me back from Kagi (I've had the pricing tab open for the past month, just staring at it), is the usage limits. I have no idea how many searches I make in a month. I don't know if I'm looking at a $5&#x

Yes. it says "Wi-Fi for high-data rate connectivity and Thread for low-data-rate communications" Wi-Fi in the hub but not in the devices would make no sense. Why have Wi-Fi in the hub if devices aren't going to use Wi-Fi to c

If some devices aren't required to have WiFi, then how do they effectively mesh with other devices? If I have a camera on the far side of my house, and then have a daisy chain of light switches back to my hub... the camera can communic

You're arguing a different thing. The topic was satellite design for satellites under 450km. If deorbiting in years is sufficient, the difference in 1 minute vs 4 years is NOT relevant -> to a satellite builder worried about the law

The rule is 5 years. You've given 2 examples under 5 years. If everything is going to re-enter within 5 years without boosting then your point is moot, because even in your "massively more collision risky" example, it still a

While I agree with the sentiment that ultimately we have to have some level of trust somewhere on the stack, there are a few minor differences. In theory anyway, I pick my ISP. If this was "support for using a VPN" instead of &quo

I have a 6900xt. It's like 3% slower than a 3090 at 1440p. Which means that it is "not as good" as Nvidia GPUs. I did not mean to imply that they aren't good, but simply that Nvidia ultimately holds the crown. If you ar

Having watched other coverage, some more takeaways: - Nvidia doesn't give board partners real drivers until they are public. Which is why evga 3090's were bricking themselves at launch, they only had limited pre-release drivers.
