Yeah, new hardware can be wildly more energy efficient than older systems.

Sigh. This is wrong, and I wonder why it is so hard to understand that it's all about probabilities. Being unmasked for 50% (?) of the time (while eating, say) you are in an enclosed space is obviously less risky than being unmasked

Indeed! That's a good point. If it uses a linear regulator, I guess the thing would produce quite a bit of heat when drawing power from the USB ports - the extra energy would just be converted into heat.

Mind you that's 3100mAh at 12V. That's roughly 7400mAh at 5V (USB voltage).

Good advice. I also keep a "Portable Car Jump Starter" in the trunk. These days they are basically big batteries (mine is ~3100mAh at 12V apparently) and they come with USB plugs and a built-in flashlight... Handy if you need to r

I guess you're not a developer. JIRA is incredibly convoluted and backwards from a development perspective, because it was built for a different audience (product? sales? I'm not sure). Just try to find a diff in a JIRA "issu

Maybe the FB algorithm takes past posts into account? His account has probably been a fountain of misinformation and hate, and now he sends one innocuous message and is surprised it gets blocked. Yawn.

Right. But even then it does not become that much worse. Just tell Go to use the appropriate cross compilation chain for the C bits, e.g. `apt install gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu` and set the `CC=aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc` environment variable to c

Not last time I tried. That flow (i.e. you are not part of/logged into an institutional Teams account) is completely broken. Teams makes you go create a free Microsoft account, which then doesn't work to log into Teams.

I think your frame of reference may be a bit warped. What is an 'average' salary? The median personal income in 2019 was $35,805 (cf. https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/MEPAINUSA672N ). I think you'd be h

It's not the parliament that is pushing this nonsense. It's the European Commission, which is not directly elected, that is the problem.
