Is this different from the standard circuit breakers?

Isn’t that basically the point of the circuit breaker box?

Also Mexico? The Phillipines? Greenland?

The video also highlights the disadvantages compared to traditional fans:

• slightly less energy efficient
• weaker
• concerns about ozone
• concerns about attracting dust

I don’t see the need particularly but my guess at the “big company” mentioned is Apple. They seem like the type to jump at the opportunity to use a new technology to make quieter and thinner laptops. They already make some laptops without any cooling fans despite how inadvisable that sounds.

Verizon is annoying but at least they aren’t Comcast. Also if they offer Fios you can get service that’s 10-100x faster, especially if you have a need for upload speeds.

The vast majority of games these days handle difficulty levels by simply tweaking the numbers of how much damage you take and deal. They build the game around a “recommended” difficulty and then add hard/easy modes after the fact by tweaking the stats.

Other games simply turn off the ability to die, or something along those lines.

In both of these cases the game is clearly built around the “normal” mode first. I’d be curious to see a clear cut example of that not being the case.

How does the existence of an option you never use degrade your experience?

As a kid I had Lego Mindstorms and I liked how it was able to interface with other Lego parts. I did find it kinda hard to program, but the Mindstorms coding was based on LabView, and it looks like both of these have coding options based on Scratch, which is how I first learned to code and would 100% recommend.

Idk much about the new Spike thing but if you have or would consider buying more legos I’d go for that one just for the extensibility.

My Ender3v2 always has some new problem to deal with. It’s cheap but it’s a pain in the ass.

Yes but you don’t have anything to make power to charge it :/

It’s naive to think you can’t be influenced into buying things you wouldn’t otherwise.

Also there’s the matter of pricing: they’ll get you to pay as much as possible, either by pushing more expensive versions or by actually changing the price you see on websites like Amazon.

They are using the info to engineer more efficient ways to separate you from your money. It’s not a benefit to you in any way.

uBlacklist is an excellent add on anyway

The clock hands move right when at the top but left when at the bottom.

Honestly this is kinda good press IMO. When the people who actively do have something to hide are using a given privacy tool, that tool probably works.

Good enough 90% of the time makes 99.9% of the money so why bother making things perfect for the power users?
