I’m kind of pissed that such obvious and preventable idiocy leads to an almost immediate liver transplant.

Yes, that’s just a lucky coincidence for him, but still…

As shown above, they don’t read the label. Ironically, you didn’t even read the screenshot that’s the cause of all of this - which disproves your point entirely.

It’s not inherent in terms of “more store=more fast”.

You could absolutely take older, more established production nodes to produce higher quality, longer lasting flash storage. The limitation hardly ever is space, but heat. So putting that kind of flash storage, with intentionally slowed down controllers, into regular 2.5 or even 3.5" form factors should be possible.

Cost could be an issue because the market isn’t seen as very large.

I still wonder, what’s stopping vendors from producing “chonk store” devices. Slow, but reliable bulk storage SSDs.

Just in terms of physical space, you could easily fit 200 micro SD cards in a 2.5" drive, have everything replicated five times and end up with a reasonably reliable device (extremely simplified, I know).

I just want something for luke-warm storage that didn’t require a datacenter and/or 500W continuous power draw.

What if, that might overwhelm you, this doesn’t answer the question at all?

You’re simply pushing the question half a millimeter to the side. Nothing more.

That’s what I’m asking myself with pretty much any “sexy” decoration.

Why put a poster of a nude girl in your locker, break room, bedroom, whatever? The only explanation I can find is performative display of (hetero) masculinity.

Man sollte die Sorgen der Echsen ernst nehmen! Sonst spielt man nur der AfD in die Hände!!!

Because it’s not using hot steam, but vapor, it’s more like sweating.

The heat exchangers are sprayed with misted water, which evaporates and takes away heat. But the resulting vapor is still only slightly above ambient temperature and can’t be reasonably condensated.

I really wonder what’s going on in the editors minds here.

The entire premise of the article is “All experts say no, but I think yes” - why would anyone about any topic publish this? If it would be an actual debate, maybe some contrarian but actual experts arguing in favor of sentience, you could get into an argument here. But this article is blatant science denial. Climate change deniers and antivaxxers use the exact same approach “facts say X, but my feelings say Y”.

Don’t underestimate the stupidity of white people looking for an identity to fill the void of meaning in their lives.

Since New Zealand isn’t very big, there’s a good chance we’re just a fad away from having millions of 22 year olds getting shitty imitations onto their faces thus ruining it for the Maori.

It’s not cultural appropriation BTW, because Kaylee and Braden absolutely do have Maori heritage 409 generations ago!

Wie soll man denn sowas auf Papier bringen???

Wo bekommt man den?

Ich hätte ein paar Denkmäler zu schützen.

And you really think “the elites” are the ones buying and selling here?

Yes, they have a lot of wealth in stocks, but usually they simply own a large chunk of their (or their parents) company and the rest is managed by a fund manager. And if you have millions or billions, you don’t need to think quarter to quarter.

What happened to librem anyway? They used to be all the rage, now it’s nothing.

One part is a reverse game of chicken, buy the dippest dip to realize most profit from less dippy dip buyers.

The other part is the assumption that this means the tariffs will never actually come or at least in a much relaxed form.

I mean, “safest” is a superlative, not a positive. It’s perfectly possible that all other pipelines ruptured three times or more.

Not to sound confrontational, but you’re way too focused on your - likely rather advanced - usage.

90% of people search for very simple stuff. They want to know the weather or want to know about that new movie they don’t quite remember the name of. And for that use case, Google is perfectly serviceable. And since people are used to it, for example by it being the default on most platforms, they use it.

A lot of market leaders are objectively a bad choice, but they’re a known brand. Coca cola, McDonald’s, Oracle, etc.

Das ist aber trotzdem eine eher unorthodoxe Vorstellung von Demokratie.

Du kannst nicht einfach die Grundgesamtheit nach Gutdünken bestimmen. Und vor allem kannst du nicht die Wahlergebnisse von einer Gruppe auf eine demografisch vollkommen andere Gruppe übertragen.

Naja, das ist schon etwas stark vereinfachend.

Wer nicht wählen kann - sei es aus alters- oder staatsrechtlichen Gründen, kann nicht für oder gegen irgendwas stimmen. Die dann in die Rechnung einzubeziehen, ist in diesem Falle ein bisschen unredlich.

No, they actually got a pretty good reputation. They’re a big corporation with probably hundreds of devs in their HQ. It’s not unlikely that a whole bunch of devs came into town specifically because of them or were hired straight out of university.
