Right... It takes 4 kW from a 30 Wh battery... So it works for 27 seconds!

It's probably closer to legality than the Executive branch ordering presidency propaganda there.

Those are specialized for server clusters. It makes zero sense to put them in a PC, and you probably don't get a lot of gaming performance / Watt from them.

But if you are building a simulations lab that can spare a GPU failing here or there (because also, they become unreliable), then maybe. But the odds are good that the price difference doesn't make it for the difference in flops / Watt when compared to new stuff.

Some times people make those signs as a joke. But this one is probably not real.

Obama created the process where they would deport the parents, but the children would be hold prisoner there, waiting to see a judge.

Then Trump increased the time to see a judge into several months, turned the prisons into torture centers, and increased the frequency it all happened.

That.

Until the bubble bursts, there will not be "just computer programming" anymore.

Some stores have a very good self-checkout infrastructure.

For some reason, it's never grocery stores. And grocery stores are basically 3/4 of the stores I need to visit. But it's possible for them not to suck.

Looks like instead of guides, you have to sit down and study it in depth.

CSS is far from perfect, but it's very likely the best theming framework that exists out there. In every context.

More often, it's the Cloudfare anti-bot captcha.

No, thanks, after 5 seconds my curiosity is gone.

Well, we got the plug that is correct both ways...

You can also follow the theory and look if there's a gravity source nearby. It also works in a fixed frame of reference.

But everybody that tried to make General Relativity non-linear failed... Maybe math just doesn't like us.

Yeah, the law was made for micro-USB and USB-C is a mess...

To make it worse, some companies decided the top voltage would be 18V, while others use 21V or anything in between... So it's not clear if the power brick you brought, that satisfies all the numbers from the device will actually be useful to charge the device.

When Samsung did that around here (claiming they were importing the idea from the EU), they sent people the charger for free if they asked. They started including the charger again later, so I guess it wasn't very well received.

But well, shortly after, when Apple did it, and charged people $15 for the charger, they were heavily fined.

And the speech is "please, kill me". And it's not his first time.

That's amazingly good and annoying at the same time.

I imagine the US uses mostly soy oil...

But I also imagine he's talking about palm oil, and got the wrong country.

We basically can't put into a movie how bad the ST lore describes our near future.

No, it's not this. I guess the closest is the beginning of Terminator, but without the machines.

It paid off for both of them plenty of times.

No problem. We are on the process of fixing it.

A "not needed roundabout" is a new concept to me. Are they in a straight street?
