I don't know if Kyle is right but "any good after mainstream public buy-in" and "worked great continuously from inception to today" is quite the goalpost move.

In my experience Linux can have some driver bugs on specific hardware that windows doesn't, like not waking up after suspend on some Nvidia cards with some drivers, etc. But it handles hardware issues miles better. 90% of hard drives t

The biggest problem with electricity is the batteries. Right now an EV pollutes more an ICE engine, the pollution is just moved to the power plants. But then you have to take into account the batteries. Making them pollutes a lot and they d

I would have agreed with your logic until a few years ago when we started seeing companies advertising inflated max bounties that they do not uphold when a critical vulnerability gets discovered.

Had the same issue at 4k 60fps, it mostly worked but the screen flashed black from time to time. I used the thickest cable I had lying around and it has worked fine since.

I've been using bupstash since trying to do backups on an rpi and finding Borg too slow to be usable. Since then I upgraded to a proper server at home but kept bupstash as I found it to just work better for the most part. Keep in mind

Just a theory but the eggs are already created and just need to be "cycled". In contrast sperm has to be produced continuously. The pollution may affect new cell creation like sperm but not the eggs cycle.

D3 increases your calcium levels in the blood while K2 regulates the usage of calcium, favoring the usage of it in bones and teeth and reduces the deposit of it in soft tissue like blood vessels and organs. Of course you wont notice anythin

afaik that's temporary and lasts only a few weeks, even if maintaining the loading dose. The effect also seems localized to muscles so unless you are overweight the effect is mostly flattering.

There is a mod for Single Player Tarkov, SAIN's that has, in my opinion, better AI than FEAR. It has some quirks sometimes, it's a mod for a game with severe issues at the end of the day. But the bot behaviors are really human-lik

It's unfun if the AI feels like it's cheating. In Counter Strike the AI can be super dumb and slow until progressively it becomes a dumb aimbot. It doesn't become a better player with gamesense ans tacticts, just raw aim (Try

Between blindsight and anihilation I recovered my passion for reading after years of not doing it. And It's been a year since I read it and I still think about it often. I have some backlog I wanna go through first but I feel a reread

We could even argue that we are good at thinking we are in control of our own thoughts. If you haven't looked into it already I recommend Blindsight by Peter Watts followed by the short story The Colonel and Echopraxia. They talk a lot

I don't think we disagree but I find it interesting that you state: "...what they do is incredibly painstaking and expensive" And later proceed to explain an example of two different patents based on a drug from the 80s impro
