Why so many? Its resolution is 16000 x 16000 which is a lot but also not that much. Is it doing more than just video output?

Or just a decent bus system. You could replace 50 cars on that highway with a single bus.

2 tips.

1. Negative air pressure is your friend. If you open the windows upstairs and down and blow air out of the house it’ll suck air from the downstairs to the upstairs cooling the entire house.

2. Bernoulli’s principle is your friend. Rather than having fans right next to the windows you’ll move more air if you back the fans a meter or so from the window. https://youtu.be/BhWhTbins_A?si=9LGd0_EmfPFBNnDJ

The engine has hundreds of parts but really only a couple of them are moving. That’s the beauty of electric motors.

It does not work like that.

The problem with such statements is the energy costs are nowhere near fixed. The amount of energy needed to play a song on my iPod shuffle through a wired headset is wildly different from the power needed to play that same song on my TV through my home theater equipment.

The same is true on the backend. The amount of power Google spends serving up a wildly popular band is way less than what they burn serving up an unknown Indy band’s video. That’s because the popular band’s music will have been pre-optimized by Google to save on bandwidth and computing resources. When something is popular, it’s in their best interests to reduce the computational costs (ie power consumption) associated with serving that content.

At least in the US, it’s not just Netanyahu that’s an issue. A lot of the mainstream media is making the same conflation.

That’s why you’ll see in articles like this one https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/23/nyregion/columbia-university-campus-protests.html which focus far more on students saying dumb shit at a protest and less on the ongoing genocide.

And you have to take what is being claimed as “antisemitic” with a huge grain of skepticism. I’ve seen claims that statements like “free Palestine” and “from the rivers to the seas” are “antisemitic”.

This is problematic because even if you wanted to address antisemitism, focusing on people protesting a genocide is not the way to go. Instead, let’s focus on the avowed Nazis parading around CPAC. Or maybe the Nazis in favor of Israel’s genocide. Maybe we should wrestle with why antisemities are so often pro Israel.

This, btw, is why CVE scores are insane at times.

The vulnerability is that when spawning a new process which is a bat file you need special treatment of the arguments to avoid spawning a second process.

So you need a rust program setup to spawn other processes which also somehow forwards unparsed user input into those processes and is executing a bat file.

There’s a reason nobody has fixed this, it’s because it’s an insane setup that affects basically no rust programs.

This is more than a “breakthrough” IMO. Manufacturers have been eyeing and researching solid states for a long time now. It’s not just a lab toy.

Yup. If you are going to own a printer, get a laser black and white printer and keep it forever. Do not get an inkjet printer. And if you need color prints (you don’t) you can literally just do those at walgreens, cvs, or a bunch of other stores that will do color prints.

The only time you should get an inkjet printer is if you are a busy photographer selling a bunch of prints and you’ve hit the point where doing color prints through a store has become too expensive.

We may never know exactly how many people israel has butchered over the last 6 months. They are currently planning on building luxury condos over the mass graves of Palestinians.

The 30,000 confirmed dead is almost certainly under counted by a factor of 10x. And the genocide isn’t over yet. They are starving the survivors.

Yes and no.

Some salts are easier to work with than others. Kosher salt, in particular, is fairly hard to over season with because you can visually see just how much you’ve thrown onto a steak or such. Fine salt, on the other hand, is a lot easier to over season with.

But then it also depends a lot on the dish. Sauces are really hard to over season. The sea of fluid can absorb a fair amount of salt before it’s noticeable. Meats are similar. A steak can have a snow covering of kosher salt and it won’t really taste super salty.

Bread, on the other hand, will be noticeably worse if you throw in a tbs of salt instead a tsp.

But salt wasn’t specifically what I was thinking when I wrote that. Herbal seasoning garlic, rosemary, thyme, sage, etc, generally won’t overpower a dish if you have too much of them. Especially if you aren’t working with the powdered form. (Definitely possible to over season something with garlic salt/powder).

I’m pretty much the same way, though I do throw in a bit of fine salt on occasion for the iodine content. I don’t eat a ton of seafood which makes getting the rda of iodine difficult.

Salt :D

Lots of home cooks are shy with seasoning in general (but especially salt). While not impossible, it’s fairly hard to over season stuff.

That’s why if you ever look at “miracle season alls” the first ingredients are usually something like “Salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder”.

If you want to be amused, look at these ingredients lists. Often the only difference is what food coloring is used.

For example.

We have an ally next door, Jordan.

We’d probably have more allies if we dropped support.

What we are doing is equivalent to us deciding to support North Korea and being shocked that all of a sudden we lose regional support from just about everyone.

Israel, especially with an ongoing genocide, is toxic to stability and alliances. It isolates more than it gives strategic advantage.

Israel got in hot water internationally the last time for doing exactly the same thing. So blaming Hamas is an easy trick to pull to try and detract from the ongoing mass starvation they are directly responsible for.

It’s really gross.

They did the exact same thing when they first blew up a hospital. Then they proceeded to blow up all the hospitals after the major news outlets stopped covering it.

Ditto with murdering literally over 100 journalists to try and suppress independent coverage of their ongoing genocide.

You can’t trust fascists propaganda to accurately report fascist genocide.

If you’re interested, here’s a pretty good podcast episode that sat down with Dr. Janale Schmidt, a history professor who ultimately got the Robert e Lee statue melted down.

[It Could Happen Here] Melting Charlottesville’s Robert E Lee Statue #itCouldHappenHere https://podcastaddict.com/it-could-happen-here/episode/171742565 via @PodcastAddict

What I find fascinating about the whole story is she did not start with the goal of melting down the statue. In fact, this whole controversy was kicked off because the city of Charlottesville wanted to move the statue to a less prominent park, rather than having it in the center of the city.

She talks about the journey of the statue and why ultimately they came to the conclusion that destruction was the right decision (including the fact that they observed these statues turning into racist shrines after the initial incident).

But hey, he called you an asshole and said you need a come to Jesus moment. So that makes him cool right?

I believe that we should take the statues and move them into museums dedicated to history. We can’t change what happened before we got here, but we can clean up leftover shit and make the future a better place to live.

Let me share 2 practical real reasons why that’s a bad idea.

1. there are a LOT of these statues and these things are HEAVY. A responsible museum won’t accept this stuff because there’s simply not the room for it.

2. The people that will accept it end up being the last people that should. Like stone mountain Park, which enshrines and worships these racist assholes.

The very real problem is by having and concentrating this “artwork”, you create meeting spaces for white supremacists. Because ask yourself, WHO is going to and wants to experience the confederacy memorials?

The cost has already been paid. Even small farming communities have rail line access that’s mostly been abandoned because the line owners switched business models.

As for flexibility, again, that’s mostly an issue with how rail line management has evolved. From shorter more frequent trains to ultra long infrequent trains. Mostly to cut the cost of staffing.

The solution is simple, nationalize the rail service. Put it under the USPS and have them figure out scheduling to optimize the speed of goods shipping.

The current state of the rail system is entirely due to the monopolistic nature of ownership. The incentive is to increase prices as much as possible while shipping to the fewest stops possible. Profit motives are in direct conflict with generalized shipping.

The reason trunking works today is the public nature of roads. Well, why shouldn’t rail lines be equally public? We practically gave the property away to the current rail owners with the notion it was for the public good… They’ve failed that.
