I would also like this for myself. Lol

Hmm, I wonder if the same could occur from a bone graft from a cadaver, like for a tooth implant?

You can see by the graph that the batteries don't piddle out that quickly already.

It's super cool you can watch California's grid level batteries "breathe" every day here, https://www.caiso.com/TodaysOutlook/Pages/supply.html#sectio...

Yesterday we peaked out at 3GW discharging rate, and 4GW charging rate. We are plowing ahead in the transition to utilizing all of our excess solar! We peak at 25GW expected today, so we have a little ways to go but it's incredible how far and how fast they're replacing everything. Clean air FTW! Thanks sun!

They literally put it in the job descriptions -- "Must have worked on AAA game X" for the high paying job listings. This makes people think "ok, I have to do this shitty low paying job to get my name on a AAA game, so I will work for peanuts for now" but then the cycle repeats because the listing also says "within the last 3 years" or similar.

The most interesting thing is that Elon is completely silenced when X/Twitter is down. He has no other social media accounts to communicate through. Anyone got his number?

Threads kinda sucks, it just shows you what their algorithm wants to show you, no ability to search for posts is pretty lame.

from a reputable card brand who doesn't allow usage of stolen cards? lol maybe the internet just implodes.

Depends on budget I'm sure, but the prices are lowering fast. You can buy a used 2020 Model 3 from Tesla.com for $28,700 with 34,219 miles, including a 10k + 1 year extended general warranty, and the 5 yr + 100k mile battery + motor warranty. New 2023 is $36,650 minus $7500 and minus state incentives, so $29150 or less before tax.

Another option, a 2019 eGolf is $17,000 with 120 mile range used with 36900 miles and still has some warranty remaining on battery + drive train.

I think those are comparable to gas alternatives. If you factor in gas savings, the monthly payment starts to work out for a ton of long commuters. Then, once you pay off the loan it's insane how much you save. I pay $116/mo for insurance and $350/yr on reg for my 2019 model 3 now that I've been driving for the last 4.5 years. If you have to charge at superchargers it's less savings, but if you can charge in a garage or at home it's about $30-40/mo to charge vs $160-200 /mo I was paying in gas.

Moving closer to the city can cost $500+/mo more than living farther outside the city for a similar sqft place. Plus you get cleaner air, quieter environment away from the main city. Some people don't like city living.

Haha fun, hey I snowboard for entire days so I do know that snow clothing is fantastic now, so I believe it. But still doesn't solve for the distance problem in our area. A lot of people commute a very long way and not everyone can work 5, or even 20 miles from their home with cost of living so high sadly. EV cars are fantastic for them.

Yeah, e-bikes are great for good weather and living within 5 miles of your office. Tesla's are great for the rest and they do have windows at least for those of us who have to commute. And at least the 132MPGe of a model 3 is better than a gas powered motorcycle.

Outlook is not an option. Microsoft is dropping the ball.

Seems they are very close though in the latest release candidate for Gimp 3.x

"GTK+3 port officially done

GIMP 3.0 has been known as the GTK+3 port version, so you will be happy to read that this port is finally over. To be fair, we still have a few minor deprecation warnings here and there, but nothing like the hundreds we used to have."

https://www.gimp.org/news/2023/07/09/gimp-2-99-16-released/#...

But, haven't the gimp team been working on refactoring/modularization of all of the tools? I think this is part of an effort to modernize. I haven't been keeping up with it but I think I read this several years ago. They stated in 2018 "GIMP 3.0 will be relying on GTK3, a much newer version of the toolkit." not sure if that ever happened?

Ads are less worrisome because you know they're an ad because they are marked with a icon usually. It's the fake posts that are tricking people into beliefs without them even realizing that it's propaganda/ads

There are some articles regarding it. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2023/jun/05/google-an...

My personal theory is that we have been mingling with AI generated content long before Chat GPT was revealed to the public, at least in the last 10-15 years. And that Chat GPT was not the first on the block manipulating people with the technology. I just think this based on the fact that the NSA was spying on people long before whistle blowers revealed it, same has to go for AI manipulation by various government agencies and non government "bad actors". We may get confirmation of this within the next 10-15 years if someone blows a whistle.

I don't think it's the ads people need to be worried about. It's pages, groups and their "users" posts manipulating people. News flash: a majority aren't even real human users.

This week I cleaned 3 WordPress websites that were exploited with this scam replacing the content on the sites.

It's a good thing we have this thing called the sun, and storage mediums such as batteries and kinetic energy storage systems now widely in place and growing exponentially.

Interesting that my notes are almost identical for my web development job.

Mine are more like this with headings for each date.

Client Name - monthly maintenance. 30m

Client Name - Attempt debug of mysql 8 upgrade issue. 1h 30m

...

Yeah, I have been developing websites for thousands of clients 100% remotely for the same company over the past 8 years, well before the pandemic. No need to drive to an office to code websites, or many other development positions.

And no, Elon is 100% wrong on this one-- we work just as hard from home, if not harder than developers who work in an office environment, partially due to the fact that we can pick up and work at a moment's notice. I'm surprised he hasn't picked up on this aspect, it's similar to how he sleeps at the factory and can be ready at a moment's notice. I feel like it's causing Tesla to miss out on extremely talented developers who are not located near one of their office locations. They are blowing it big time.

To be honest, I think our only chance / defense is to build these and put 100% of the emphasis on training them to eradicate any ground or air based killbots as quickly as possible. Humans are not even remotely a threat when it comes to AI powered autonomous killbots. We need defensive bots. These wouldn't need anti-human designed weapons most likely.

Microsoft Edge is a privacy nightmare. They have buried dozens of data-collection settings in so many menus under so many different names and categories it's insane. You literally need a book to know which settings to turn off, and even then they keep adding new settings at a very high rate hidden in "security updates"

I'm curious, do you know of a study that has proven that single core CPU or other is the bottleneck in CS:GO?

Wow, didn't expect to get so many comments. It's just interesting to me that we have 500hz monitors, yet games are still coming out that only run at ~70 fps on a 3080, etc. I used CS:GO as a comparison just because it was an example capable of coming near 500 FPS. Avg FPS are not going up fast enough in my opinion. I understand some games purposefully limit FPS for physics calculations, but there are many that do not.

I do wonder though, why has moore's law stopped in its tracks? Using CS:GO benchmark, a 1070 got 218 FPS, while a 4090 is at 477 FPS. Only a ~2.2x increase in FPS in 6 years? :(

Ack, are you sure "some movement on making Google Docs better"... Google Docs is miles better than o365's alternatives. Holy cow is Microsoft's attempt laggy, bloated and a pain to have to use.

Do "they know exactly how their chips work"?

Difficult to say without proper debugging tools. Chrome dev tools seems to cause it to not run for me.
