My tinnitus requires loud fans. Also fan noise is always a good indicator of power. When I was in highschool, I bought a secondhand Poweredge 1800-something hoping to make it my new home server after the Pentium 4…
Lol the vast majority of pirates are not paying for anything. Maybe a very wealthy and ethical person is fine paying for something after they've sampled the pirated version but a good chunk of the world never had the…
More data can support changing performance limits. They also may have been more conservative in the past when the rover was new because they wanted to ensure it met its mission requirements. Since the rover has long…
Ingenuity does have an RT ProASIC3 (an older rad hard FPGA) on board so presumably that could be what's handling the voting. Since the Snapdragon was originally used for navigation and operates much, they could be…
New York's favorite thing to do is vote in the worst people and then complain nonstop.
I like how the Special Agent's affidavit just looks like his wife caught him sports betting and he figured out a way to make it look like he was really investigating a crime.
Printers definitely do wear out. We had a very nice Canon for 10 years and slowly got out of alignment. There's a method to realign the print heads but it got to the point where it was beyond the adjustment limits. You…
For some of those devices, they use very bespoke CPUs that are simply not documented publicly.
It's incredible how effective those messages are for some people. Some victims emptied their bank accounts because they were so ashamed of whatever porn they were watching and possibly afraid of legal consequences too.…
That's probably why the number of new questions asked dropped off. Once someone has asked "how to fizzbuzz in python", that's pretty much it. You'll get the textbook answer, the "why are you fizzbuzzing in the first…
"hey there goes that guy with no plates again"
It's race in all but name. They actually get around it by specifying everything about a person other than race, like skin color, accent or language skills. If they need a Viet person for a role in a Vietnam War movie,…
There is a thing called Bona Fide Occupational Qualifications where an employer could discriminate against protected classes because the job description is so specific. Like if a church wanted to hire a new pastor, the…
And for me, I'd rather do my own assembly than pay $1400 for five boards from Circuithub that I can get from JLCPCB for $20 or OSHPark for $50.
I see a lot of police bodycam videos on YouTube of cops stopping drug traffickers for bullshit reasons (5 over speed limit on highway, crossing the line, following too closely) and it's usually a state or county cop…
Many militaries are still buying rifles that chamber a cartridge introduced in 1891 (7.62x54mmR). I'd argue a cartridge initially developed for a long bolt action rifle (Mosin-Nagant) that can now be fired out of a…
The card vending machines are effectively rate limited, you need to wait to make a purchase. This is so one person can't empty the entire machine, even if they have multiple payment methods.
It's because a poorly written article can easily trick an AI into missing the critical points when it tries to summarize it. Thinking that AI summaries are good enough when writing a journal article is just as foolish…
Because it's a PhD from a third world country publishing bullshit so they can get a position at a western university.
That's exactly what I've said when someone has suggested moving away from my favorite tool to their favorite tool. I've literally said "Uh, don't forget, we'll likely need an 8 hour training course for a dozen…
I've seen malware popups that give detailed steps on how to install the app on Android. You can put up all the scary warnings you want but if someone really wants to install some scam app, they will click past…
Data visualization is such a dead end product. Wow lots of pretty charts, can you actually interpret the data and make an informed decision? Any idiot can throw shit into Excel and make charts and pivot tables. An AI…
True but at least Claude does the work for me too. It's going to build me whatever I want despite how correct of a choice it is.
Companies are almost always better off bringing in one experienced consultant that actually knows how to stand up the project and help hire the team to make it happen. We used to have a very experienced systems engineer…
Yeah a lot of those fancy PDF features are Adobe-only. It's not that other apps can't support those features, it's that no one in their right mind wants to spend endless amounts of money and time trying to sandbox it.…
