WiFi is rather terrible, and I believe 5G aims to compete with it along with other standards. I have a 90 sqm two storey house with a detached garage, workshop and quite a bit of land around it and I need 6 WiFi routers to get a signal ever

Well, 2x 4k-8k 90fps streams (maybe both ways) for a VR/AR Headset comes to mind. Why in a park? I dunno, why not

I've seen all these posts about this system and it still seems way too over-explained for what it is. Using Google keep with keywords at the end/start of the note, plus optional categories, seems to achieve the same thing. Everyth

I wonder how many people asked that during the World Wars? Why do they have to suffer because some rich assholes decided they need every industry to support the war.

What if everybody gets a loan, minimal/no interest with delayed repayment? Just pretend it's not a handout, but actual debt that will be repaid... someday? Just a thought

Going with this analogy, what if the government partnered up with banks and offered huge loans to everyone, with minimal interest and the ability to postpone repayment for months/years. Since money is a human invention, if everyone pre

It's ridiculous. Living in the UK I've had several people talk about Muslims and immigrants and how they change culture and take jobs... One even said "you're alright mate"... Are you serious? I don't understan

Are they really cheaper? Anyone have the prices? I think even if they're cheaper now, they'll raise their prices later. And then you'd just be lining up the CCPs pockets at the expense of EU companies (does not apply to SA, I

It's the religion thing, the belief there's got to be something big at work, always something or someone controlling the masses. Whether it's God, aliens, lizards, or a super group of people. Because the alternative is that t

Yeah, copper or aluminum would work just as well, if not better :D

So, turn roads into closed train tracks? That will take even longer than creating a true AI... people drive cars, people cross roads, stuff gets on roads, there are so many vehicles some do break down... What you suggest would lead to self-

That's a long way off, if it ever happens. Rocket launches will be tightly regulated, in fact they already are as ICBMs. Any private launches without approval from a big power (or all of them) will likely be stopped by any means.

Good example, strategically invaluable, but worthless for many of the people actually building them.

As long as Earth streams memes :D But yeah, it's not for everyone. Imo, it would be pretty exciting to continuously enlarge some sort of habitat somewhere. In case there's no way to return to Earth, would definitely need a steady

I'd volunteer. It would be the adventure of a lifetime (literally). But this is something that's not going to be allowed. Look at all the safety measures they're putting in spacecraft to ensure people live. No way is anyone g

My first thought was "that needs a high pressure pump" haha, which would kind of defeat the purpose. Probably still way less water usage though.

In countries with a lot of suntime, it can be as simple as a black tank/radiator outside. 3-6 months of free hot water with absolutely minimal investment.

A joke, indeed, seeing as German and other European politicians want the same thing as Trump, for platforms to moderate the users' content.

On a related note, RAID rebuild failing on slower drives is ridiculous these days. Is it so hard to implement something like buffer underrun protection in CD/DVD writers? Or just longer/adjustable wait times?

How so? Aren't LED bulbs powered by a standard switch mode power supply? Those are very tolerant of the input voltage.

Somewhat related: the Google Translate app uses older voices for some languages, Google Assistant uses the newer, better ones. Not sure why, but if you're using that feature, you should use Google Assistant ("be my translator, ple

If you're earning enough to afford a different, paid, hosting provider, yes you should definitely get it. But YouTube is still a platform you must be on if you care about expanding your viewership.

Don't know what the issue was, but HP and Dell supplies are the same, they'd be interchangeable if not for the smart charge features.

They are f%%%ing overheating. Latitudes, Precisions, Alienwares, HPs ZBooks and Elitebooks, all of them have a barely good enough heatsink on the CPU, and often GPU. I dunno about Lenovos, tbf. Having those chips run at 95+ degrees most of
