I would consider it incredibly unlikely to happen, but based on how much money they're banking, I'd say Apple could probably afford to live without the EU.

Yeah, it's brutal. Was €0.39 right after Mad Vlad kicked off his vanity conflict.

Depends. At full load? At Irish power prices? Just the Pi, no peripherals, no NVMe? 5 units? €13/mo. Handy: https://700c.dk/?powercalc My Pi CM4 NAS with a PCIe switch, SATA and USB3 controllers, 6 SATA SSDs, 2 VMs, 2

Because I spent too much time as a kid playing flight simulators, I learned it that way, and I have no interest in relearning. I found the inverted flight controls bafflingly backward when I first encountered them, but I got used to them. N

The Ender 3 V2 is very solid and repeatable, but loud. I spent more money making mine quiet than I did buying it. You can literally get Enders free or for very little in classifieds. Bambu has a very good marketing department.

My bill was €316 bimonthly at €0.31/kWh before I put in panels. Last bill covering the two sunniest months I've ever seen in Western Europe was €100 exactly, of which in excess of €50 was the standing charge that is due regardless

Fuck. This is what I get for posting on 3 hours of sleep. My hallucinated bullshit came out so close to actual that it looked correct enough. 3.2v nominal per cell, 305Ah capacity: .976kWh per each. Call it .98. Not 980Ah, but 0.980 kWh. .9

Off grid is silly unless you actually require it. Massive PV overprovision to ensure there's always something on the table is better than insane battery capacity. A couple of weeks worth of storage is a wild amount for a normal househo

Same, but about ten years after the last modular RAM computers go on the market, you and I are both going to have a Problem. Incidentally, this is why I bought a hot air rework station and a heater. Won't help me if they blow an efuse

I don't find the entire narrative in the article plausible. It smacks of the "everybody clapped" genre. This section feels particularly contrived: > Did you hate me when I was hostage to the cult?" he asked. I'd

I think curves make sense for e.g. those 34-40" 21:9 and 49" 32:9 displays, because otherwise the edges are much further from your peripheral vision, requiring you to change focus significantly to look at different parts of the sc

Apple's done it since 2020. Intel was planning to, but walked it back. It dramatically increases performance, and allows vendors to sell you RAM at 8x the market price, and requires you to replace your entire computer to upgrade it, th

Gen1? Ideally on the original firmware? Display it as an artifact. Gen2 or later? E-waste.

I think you severely underestimate the tech savviness and community-seeking of 4chan users. They'll figure it out.

YMMV. I asked it for a list of something and it responded "I'm not in the habit of doing your homework, but here's a compact list[...]"

Cool concept, but the accuracy seems quite low. The hits for "pedo" are pretty hilarious, though! https://www.alltext.nyc/search?q=pedo&p=2

Serious props to TSMC for having the processes in place to catch this or figure it out, sacking the alleged bastards, announcing the insider breach publicly (and accepting the consequences of a moment of corporate vulnerability, but at the

230VAC mains electrical fittings are openly sold in DIY shops in every country in the European Union without mass-cookings occurring as a result. This reeks of utterly unearned elitism.

> Wayland will take 20 more years before it can dethrone X11. And even then we will mostly run X11 apps on XWayland. And yet RedHat/Fedora and Ubuntu, as well as GNOME, are leading the charge to drop X support in the next release; K

But they were really, really good. An Indigo² Solid Impact R4400SC 250 was my main PC from 1998 until I left the US in late 2003. Built like a tank. Incredibly smooth in operation. Rang rings around my iMac G4, which ended up just sitting o
