First Valve single-handedly saves PC gaming, then advances Linux gaming further than anyone has done in 30 years. Their work on Proton, and integrating into the Steam client is incredible.
Maybe my memory fails me, but I thought for sure our home PC had it. I get the reason for it prior, but I swear that was a pretty early development as the personal computer became more prevalent in the mid 90s at least.
Nest does this in conjunction with local energy provider during "rush" hours. It will cool the house lower than normal, then raise the AC temperature limit, usually between the hours of 14-18. Actually get paid back for it.
There's plenty of reasons to at least reduce meat consumption. Should we ban it globally? Of course not. However, it should be more of a special occasion, as it has been historically. Eating red meat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner isn't doing anyone any favors. Except maybe healthcare companies.
Yeh sure, matter is neither created nor destroyed. The problem here is that massive amounts of carbon sequestered over millions of years, is being released, just to create the feed for these livestock. This isn't like a small group of cattle, grazing on natural prairies.
You don't own physical games either, well besides the physical plastic. You're purchasing a license to use it, this is how all software/music/movies work. They have the ability to revoke that license at any time.
Thanks, I'll stick with my battle hardened manual gearbox, until I ride this car into the ground. Maybe I'm turning into a grumpy old man, but I want nothing to do with the lack of physical buttons, giant touchscreens, and fly by wire EVERYTHING in these cars.
People think they want these retro consoles, but they don't. It's a quick novelty attempting to relive those childhood years through rose tinted glasses. In reality, you quickly realize how far gaming has come, and you have no patience for the past. Enjoy those years in your mind.
Combine your love of coding with landscaping. That's what I'm doing with food now. Twenty years in tech, now I'm doing food and drink marketing - with tech.
I actually bought a couple pairs of these Dayton bookshelf speakers with AMTs for surrounds with my Totem mains and center a few years ago. They sound fucking GOOD for $60. Far better than all this satellite and soundbar crap. If I was on an absolute budget, I'd get these as my mains, and the acoustech subs that I use for my computer($240) at the time. SOLID.
Yeh, unfortunately you're going to have to spend some bucks for quality. I'm still using my fathers 50 year old ESS Model 5's in my upstairs office and they sound amazing. Original woofers too! I just refoamed them, easy. I love the sound of the HEIL air motion transformers.
No. You can't change physics. What usually suffers is the midrange(woofer) because everything is tiny. So you get high frequencies, and then usually some paltry subwoofer. There is no replacement for displacement.
