what do you mean by hearsay? There are videos and pictures of him doing this stuff: sex with what looks like prostitutes and hard drugs (you can find them too on the internet). Those don't make the emails real, and it might still be a

isn't the difference between L1, L2 and L3 also because of the functionality, not just the size+speed? L1 is data and code. L2 is data only, per core. L3 is data, synchronized between cores.

and not only that, but they do impose limits on how much they can use at each stage. I know for example that the computing power for the algorithms that generate the best shape for the best air flow are all equal among teams.

or the vacuum cleaners in the EU...limited to 800 watts, so now I have to spend 2-3 the time it used to take, when a single pass was enough. Why not just allow me to buy a 2-3000W machine and do a single pass? Better for the environment and

Brave is still based on chromium/blink. You might get more privacy, but you're still supporting the one monopoly of the web, Google deciding over all the web standards going forward. That is the real bad thing

well, comparing an active force, mecanized, a large part of it being airborne or seaborne to a whole country, which includes children, retirees, unemployed etc. it's not even that bad.

If you think about it, a lot of the arabian/russian/corupt oligarchs money from oil were spent in ludicrous ways, like luxury beyond belief. The economy is getting less value from a fracked barrel, but those money are spent more w

Water evaporated and leaves brine behind, at any temperature above 0C (even below through sublimation). Theoretically I guess you can imagine the sun evaporating the water that you capture, so you could have close to 0 energy input. So ther

it's indeed a bad article. Probably newer plants will have to dump their brine further away from shore, where it's dissipated easier? What is the effect of the brine on the local ecosystem? Is it on par with the warming of water b

In general, turbines use energy to start up! They need to do this in order to overcome the very large inertia. Imagine a wind that lasts for 4 hours, but to harness that, you need to be spinning up for 1 hour, leaving you only 3 hours or us
