The fact that verbal allegations of events decades ago were enough to sink multiple people’s lives.

Hence, people will choose to record every minute of their lives out of fear of something similar happening to them.

And the stupid thing is, they could have just used the allegations his sister made against him as the reason for the firing and ridden off into the sunset, Scott-free.

I guess it just depends on what you want to do. Training AI? Probably better off renting computer at this point. Everyday use? I still have a 1070 in my main workstation that has survived three computer upgrades. I am looking to upgrade, but I’m not in a hurry.

Stefan esser was a bit infamous in the iOS jailbreak scene for being a bit of an ass and trolling the community to try to get people to pay for his iOS security lessons.

If we’re talking 2.5 sticks of TNT, wouldn’t drilling into the tire… release that energy? Explosively? Drilling a hole isn’t exactly a controlled deflation.

It was actually. Lawsuits were filed against the DuPont factory. The link is a bit of a “doomer/conspiracy” site I think but the information is accurate.

Think of talent as genetics. The 6’6 guy naturally will have a much easier time playing basketball than the 5’6 guy. The guy with long, flexible fingers will likely be a better piano or guitar player than the guy with short stubby fingers. Etc. Can the difference be overcome? Somewhat, but the person with the advantage + effort will always beat the person without the advantage but with the same amount of effort.

There have been several experiments that have showed similar findings, and I looked through half a dozen or so and didn’t find any that showed otherwise. Here’s one that you can browse:

This could also be very interesting in hydroponics, though often the issue there is too much root growth. Tomato especially. They love to clog up all the pipes and starve everything else.

Reminds me of my (far less critical) update process for home assistant. Every time something breaks. Currently my hvac automations are going haywire.

The article is actually incorrect. There is no 1970 427. There was a 350 and a 454. Considering the amount of torque it put down, it would likely be a good bit faster with modern tires. You do have to also realize that the 1970 vette was right when emissions controls started destroying performance - the 69 427 put down a good bit more power than the 70 454.

I bought my wife an absolutely beautiful moissanite handmade ring on Etsy for a fraction of the price a real diamond would cost, and she’s been very happy with it. Not only does it look great, she has a tendency to leave rings lying around the house and forget where they are, so it’s not a panic-inducing event if she should happen to lose it.

It wasn’t showing up when I had edited initially, my bad.

And of course Cisco was one of them.

Yes, the mechanism which can provide power for some 45 seconds is a generator replacement.

Sigh…

Wow, and the documentation is remarkably good.

Or they could refuse to accept it, raise import taxes to 500%, and thrive just fine.

Gwern has noted the same in his post:

> Wikipedia summarizes Guillem et al 2005 as “Technically, nicotine is not significantly addictive, as nicotine administered alone does not produce significant reinforcing properties” - the addictiveness coming from MAOIs (eg. Khalil et al 2000, Khalil et al 2006) & possibly other compounds present in tobacco

Not particularly. Pure nicotine in and of itself is significantly less addictive than the form presented in a cigarette. Modern big tobacco has managed to create an incredibly nasty and addictive chemical slurry in a stick, with acetaldehyde, ammonia, MAOIs, and a bunch of other chemicals which significantly increase the addictiveness of nicotine.

The most recent developments state that LK-99 should theoretically be a superconductor as of a month ago, but as far as I am aware, no actual physical replication.

Considering the fact that people have regained limited “vision” with implants/bionic eyes, the answer is most likely yes. Though the electronics usually have very limited resolution, I believe second sight’s last one had 40 pixels.

Indeed, because we haven’t yet figured out how to successfully reintegrate the nerves. So even if the actual eye is transplanted, there will not be vision.

Many cars can be modified even now with increasingly integrated entertainment systems. Beatsonic or its various Chinese copies are an example of this, it’s a box that hijacks the video stream and lets you add CarPlay functionality and stuff.

VPN port forwarding is basically a “botnet operators welcome” sign from what I understand. The benefits of disabling it are greater than the downsides for Mullvad.

Just search car name + 3g, discontinuation of SOS, etc. Here’s an example from Toyota that lists all the good years: https://www.toyota.com/audio-multimedia/support/3g-faq/

A nice perk of 3g going away is that you can buy new-ish cars that won’t be able to connect to the cellular network anyhow. Toyota for example didn’t update some of their models to 4g until 2019.

The antennas are in the side mirrors and can be easily disconnected.

It will work, you just won’t get any updates. It won’t refuse to drive.

I don’t think the “Buy More Stuff” theory actually applies here. The average purchaser of the 8/256 model just uses it as a Chromebook with a fancy logo. By the time they hit the TBW limit they’ll likely have upgraded anyways because the battery will be completely degraded.

On the other hand, the average person who purchases a computer with the knowledge that they need to perform data-intensive tasks will likely also understand that 8/256 is not sufficient for their needs.

Thus, the amount of Mac owners that will realistically actually run into premature SSD failure is probably pretty low.

Apple is just running a multi-pronged strategy here: a “good enough” model for 90% of people, and then a “squeeze every last penny out of them” approach for the people who require performance and are willing to pay the Apple tax.

The actual downsides of this approach are pretty limited, as the swap is fast enough that it won’t create a class of newly disgruntled Mac owners annoyed that their Mac “got slow just like a pc”.

Miserly from their side? Sure. But I’m certain the beancounters weighed every aspect and decided that their RAM budget per board was $2, so 8gb it was. Spending an extra $1.30 for a 16gb LPDDR4X chip would break the bank.

Those are actual, current spot prices on those chips. A 150x profit margin on that upgrade from 8 to 16gb makes for some nice fat CEO bonuses. Where do you think the money to pay Tim Apple his 99 million dollar compensation last year came from?

There’s a fairly strong correlation between severity of Parkinson’s and vitamin D levels. It’s a nasty self-feeding decline as people tend to move less and spend less time outside as the disease progresses, which may potentially make the progression worse.
