Yeah, by shutting down the last two fully functional and perfectly safe nuclear power plants, as the greens just did in Germany.

And I hope the person went with the equity ownership and did not settle for a 10% higher salary instead.

I have very mixed memories of Ultima IV, which he mentions as one of the main inspirations for this game. I played it day and night and was super prepared for the final dungeon. Fought like a maniac, was really proud of what I did there, an

I agree, driving in the US (only went to Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia) is more relaxed than in Germany and driving is less aggressive (yeah, there is the occasional nutjob in Atlanta). I like the four-way stops in the US, which forces peo

Same with pointing out at the first studies that indicated that the virus was airborne. I got downvoted to oblivion here for posting a link to the study.

What does "toxic" mean in this case. AFAIK "toxic" can mean that you will get a headache if you eat a gram, but it can also mean that it will kill you if it touches your skin. For example I do not mind drinking a beer or

I own this, too, and used it as my only watch until a few days ago. Then the titanium mod for my GW-M5610U-1ER arrived by mail. I am wearing this now, but I wish it was as light as the LCW-M100TSE (which is 70g vs. 100g of my new one). Sinc

Imagine you find this atrocity of a watch in an old box on the attic and someone is willing to pay $2500 for it.

I actually think that a digital watch with solar cell, multiband receiver and led backlight is a greater engineering marvel.

If you only want the casing and wristband of an Apple Watch there are cheap knockoffs on Aliexpress that have a quite solid hardware (and a crappy software).

The world is still waiting for a CA-53W backlight mod. Some rdditor seems to be working on it. https://www.reddit.com/r/casio/comments/12qplk8/ca53w_leds_m...

Desmos is a true gem. It took me a while to understand how great the graphing calculator really is. There is also GeoGebra, which has similar functionality and I always thought it is just a rebranded Desmos, but they seem to exists independ

I do not understand this logic. Only because something has a certain probability of happening makes you glad to be mortal? If you could choose now between being mortal and immortal, would you choose mortality because there is a certain prob

No, blowing H2S and SO2 into the stratosphere is cheaper.

It's an external battery anyway, so you can use an arbitrarily large battery or multiple backup batteries. It's not really a problem, but the battery being external is.

You could pay more than $50000 for a max spec Intel Mac Pro just a few days ago (at the risk of being outperformed by a Mac Mini). Marques Brownlee called it the most overpriced tech product currently on the market.

Ok, I had the impression that those things are translucent, because the eyes were visible. I did not fully watch it, but I just found out that Apple is using a lentricular and OLED screen on the outside to display a 3D image of your face to

You may be right. Remember when they used someone with extra large hands for presenting the first iPhone in order to make it look small? Now you can get the iPhone 14 is large and very large. We may get used to this if the product is suffic

The difference is the AR, which will eventually make it wearable in everyday life. When setting the perimeter, the Oculus already shows the surrounding using it's integrated cameras. This will be the future. I don't think the firs

I already hate those people who think they must walk around in the streets wearing these AR masks.

Right, there are other chip companies. But products of those other companies usually do not make teen and crypto nerds drool.

Note that even after you ship nobody will notice your app, unless you start doing some marketing. So even if you ship, nothing really big will happen initially (this can be quite a disappointment). I have released an early version of my app

10 hours of "What is love" with a fantastic loop from "A Night at the Roxbury". https://youtu.be/09m0B8RRiEE Looks like a very long loop, but there a small breaks every few hours (for example at 6:02:20)
