Or the more darwinistic view: anything you pay access for, you can get gated off from. Its quite difficult to ban someone from a public park, especially when they can just put on a new hat. Its really easy to ban someone from a private park

The Leaf 2 was and is a very good EV for its price point. Its weird how Toyota had the first mass-market PHEV with the Prius but got hyperfixated on hydrogen cars, and Nissan had one of the most successful BEVs (Leaf 2, maybe even Leaf 1) a

Actually, it's compute workloads that love bandwidth, they just have hard thresholds on how much memory they need. You can see this with overclocking VRAM. Greatly benefits mining, slightly or even negatively benefits gaming workloads.

Yeah I guess regional availability really works into it.. bummer I wonder if the B580 will drop to MSRP at all, or if retailers will just keep it slotted into the greater GPU line-up the way it is now and pocket the extra money.

Intel switched over to a new driver for dGPUs and any iGPU newer than Skylake(?). The newest beta-ish driver is Xe, the main driver is Intel HD, and the old driver is i915. People complaining experienced the teething issues of early Xe buil

Not all of them. The 3060 Ti was great because it was actually built on the same underlying chip as the 3070 and 3070 Ti. Which ironically made those less valuable. But the release of those cards was during Covid pricing weirdness times. I

> Unfortunately, today’s midrange cards like the RTX 4060 and RX 7600 only come with 8 GB of VRAM Just a nit: one step up (RX 7600 XT) comes with 16GB memory, although in clamshell configuration. With the B580 falling inbetween the 7600

Apparently (some) peppers are anti-inflammatory, which I guess I have to accept the science of, but still disagree with on an empirical level.

That is very interesting to know, thank you! I always assumed it was just one induction and transformation step.

Calling memory safety an 'ideal' is like calling back-ups an 'ideal'. You can cast it off as a "nice to have", until you get bitten in the ass by a lack of it.

I think one of the "easiest" steps would probably be to run a concurrent circuit of DC from a central inverter, stepped at the same voltage as the solar / home battery output. Then you wire your EV charger and big electrical

Interestingly enough the Windows kernel is slowly rusting. If they they see a significant drop in CVEs eventually (which is bound to happen, with how easy it is to footgun memory safety in C), it blows a huge hole in the stance of "no

I meant it more in the sense of: "[in the current appliances environment] is there even a use to running DC in a/your home?" Its very cool as a theoretical exercise and you could probably make a proof-of-concept house, but if

Is there even a use to running DC in a home? Almost everything complex does run on DC internally, but you feed those via AC adapters that then invert it to DC. You'd have to get bespoke DC-DC adapters (transformers, really) for everyt

Corruptible is relative to the goal you're trying to achieve. If you're the king of a nation, anyone trying to convince your knights to overthrow you is a corrupting force. But at the same time you could be a brutal ruler corrupte

Young people often are hopelessly ideological, in the same way a dogmatic religious person would be. Both are less corruptible than your average person.

But now you're comparing median video bitstream with peak audio bitstream. YouTube uses variable bitrate for audio, which can vary dramatically in size. Your example of podcasts or "talking heads" is actually perfect. Most en
