Anything that comes into contact with people’s sensory experience quickly becomes completely irrational. We have drugs that are legal and doing huge harm and drugs that are illegal that are medicinal. People tell themselves they can taste the difference between red wine and white wine. That they can hear the difference between one speaker cable and another. Can we just admit that we are making all of this stuff up and focus on something more worthwhile?


It’s the highest honour.


I would imagine it is the same situation everywhere. Does anybody know of a nation that builds on time? Failing that, a big project that didn’t overrun? The only example I can think of is soviet rearmament during Barbarossa. You could argue they produced the t34 tank in time to save Moscow. There must be more recent examples that our governments could learn from.
Unless the government is directly managing the project and they are also sufficiently competent to do so, we will always be at the mercy of shady contractors.


Ah is not a good unit for explaining capacity, it’s better to use Joules. Ah is better suited to throughput because it informs the maximal load that can be applied.


America democratically elected this chud. His moves appear to be about creating some sort of legacy that we’ll all look back on fondly one day. He craves a peace prize and when it doesn’t arrive he proceeds to threaten the committee. Delusional doesn’t come close to explaining this pathology.


Let’s turn the clock back to the days when we burnt coal. Cheaper? No. Better for the environment? Worse. Appealing to racist grandpa’s? Bingo.


The war he started sure seems like a great idea if the idea is to maintain a healthy population level. Why does anybody listen to what politicians or business says? Isn’t population reduction a good thing for the environment, surely that must be among our most pressing concerns right now?


Excel was developed as a quasi accounting tool for keeping track of basic numerical data. Presumably it gained popularity with small businesses and within corporations. The way it’s used currently goes way beyond the original scope. I’ve personally met many people using it for PhD research and engineering, which is a testament to the versatility of the design but also, wtf.


These drones are literally hardwired to the controller, the physical layer is a fibre-optic filament through which all the control actions are sent and feedback received. Commercial grade drone control over radio is vulnerable to electronic warfare of which the Russians have a suite of tools at their disposal.


Skating dangerously close to the naturalistic fallacy with your stupid comment. Ecological changes from any source could be catastrophic for life on earth, people are not a necessary precondition.


Maybe we could attract it with an OnlyFans subscription.


It comes from chy-nah?


The 9070xt is a great card and much better value than the equivalent Nvidia offering, last time I checked the benchmarks. The Linux compatibility was the other major draw. My system is now 100% AMD and I’m preparing to trial Steam os and Bazzite.


How they bite without the teeth?


Why are you shitting on the tp aficionados?


People play FPS games on a PC using a controller?



5G causes Corona virus is a favourite. Most of the biblical claims but those are too obvious. Excluding religion and conspiracy theories, expensive speaker cables produce sound quality that is superior to cheap cables. Turning a phone off in an aircraft improves safety. My daughter’s teacher confidently informed me that bicycles are more dangerous than cars. That was probably the most depressing and stupid.
Sure would be a pity if they dropped it.
