Makes sense.

In that case better for efficiency than interior blinds, but still blocking your view out.

Would be handy for an especially hot day or week, but I wouldn’t like to have to keep my windows covered all summer.

Interior blinds are mentioned in the video: basically since they’re behind the glass the energy is still getting in and green-housing a bit. Blinds heating up is heat inside the room. Also block the view out, which awnings don’t.

Furor might be too, sibling.

Lol

I mean there will still need to be spring-loaded pins somewhere in order to make good connection. And tiny pins means someone will bend them by accident at some point. And the pins are still a little involved to make, so taking them off means the RAM can be made cheaper. So this means:

• if just replacing/upgrading RAM, then no need for extra pins to be made
• if adding ram to a slot that didn’t have any before, then can also buy pins or they can come in some kits or whatever
• when someone bends pins, then just the pins can be bought for a reasonable price, instead of replacing expensive RAM, or very expensive motherboard

That was one of the things that excited me most from the iFixit video; the (LGA?) pins are a separate part that can be replaced as well. Simplifies the motherboard because then there are just flat pads on there, which means they don’t need to include the whole array of fancy pins for a second module if it doesn’t ship with one.
