You took me a little bit too literally- I was illustrating a point. People have comparably giant displays compared to the 90’s and yet still treat them as single small displays.

It sounds like people in your workspace haven’t discovered opening multiple windows side by side.

I’ve found people in the windows world often make everything full screen all the time- such a waste. You have a 40” 6k display and you open a single giant word doc.

You could have 3 or more documents open side by side- or a webpage for reference, a notepad, and your work or 1000 other combinations.

I do development work so my workflow is extremely text heavy, but it’s rare that I don’t have 4+ windows open simultaneously per display. I also use an old dell monitor I had laying around rotated 90 degrees as others mentioned for log monitoring or chat threads.

I think people just need to get more creative using their space- it’s not the monitor’s fault if you don’t fill it with stuff.

Yeah, first few years going to the beach my son just laid under an umbrella on a towel and wanted to watch blippi. He came out of it.

Vacations with kids need to come with certain expectations and limitations on your part, but as they get older and you do it more often, it gets better and better. Hang in there!!

They pop up regardless- the “algorithm”. I downvote and block the worst of them to try and reduce it, but Google still ends up pushing some in

It’s all over YouTube shorts from shitty third world content theft channels.

Make sure you’re not mixing up MBps and Mbps. Internet speed is almost always measured in megabits (Mbps) not megaBytes (MBps), the former being 1/8 of the equivalent megabytes per second.

55 megaBYTES per second is just fine, that’s a full HD movie download in about 3 minutes. 55 megaBITS would be about 24 minutes for the same thing. Would that matter to you? No idea. But if you’re currently at 100, everything would take about twice as long as before the switch regardless.

Pork is amazing.

Because they love the idea of trump sucking Israel’s dick.

I e only ever had Japanese cars, and they’ve all been great. A Nissan, a Toyota, and a Subaru.

Exactly

Books!

Redundancy is your best option regardless- that said, when those western digital easy-stores go on sale, I like to grab them for offline storage. Something like rsync every couple of months and you have a decent second copy of your data to keep on a shelf. The $/Gig was hard to beat, I haven’t gotten any in a year or two, but there were sales to get the drives with enclosures for like $130 for 8TB. At the time, that was far less than I was paying for internal NAS drives. Since it’s not a daily driver, you don’t need super high runtime or performance.

Yeah there are a bunch on uncensored models on ollama. It’s stupid easy to use!

It’s kind of like the difference between talking about people who are black and referring to someone as “one of the blacks”. It’s subtle, but the latter is objectifying where as the former is descriptive.

That was a cool vid- I don’t know much about antennas, so that was a fascinating watch. Thanks!

No, the light output of a lamp is the same, you’ve just focused more of it in a particular direction. It’s the same reason flashlights have a cone shaped mirror around the bulb. If it were possible to double light output, then putting a lamp between two mirrors would make infinite light.

I’d say adaptability would be priority in an environment that is subject to frequent change. Environments that are largely static probably favor efficiency.

All the time

I totally agree, hot swap modules are the only way it can work- treat them like propane tanks!

I hope so but I doubt it. It’s not the price that’s so much of an issue but the fact that the packs are non-standard, non-serviceable, and the car is worthless without it. Manufacturers make money selling their own custom batteries at markup. It’ll take government regulation to force companies to begin using a modular system because there is literally negative incentive for manufactures to do it on their own.
