I will continue to use em dashes as I always had, thank you very much. I couldn't care less if you mistake me for an LLM. That's your problem for being overconfident in your mispla…

I have not managed to stress test it yet, I believe that so far I saw it deliver ~100W max. I got it for 110€ in some Amazon bundle together with 3 usb cables. Which is about the p…

The Anker Prime 160W power brick shows the maximum wattage of the cables you plug in. It is also surprisingly small.

Every page on this website ends with the How to make a herbarium pressing tutorial. I crave for some photos of the author's herbarium.

Sure, but the Dallas residents still don't have the autonomous on-demand bus while they could have had a normal bus decades ago. And I doubt that 4 or 12 is the ideal bus size in t…

Perhaps bad design, but user-hostile is a bit of a stretch.

1. I promise you that a bus can get through winding narrow loops just fine. All medieval old towns are like that. 2. You either create loops or hubs where people transfer. The hub …

Why is a bus not fit for endless culdesac suburbia where people are commuting between the suburbs instead of to the downtown? I really don't get it. Pretty much everywhere outside …

Of course not, but there is a strong default option effect. And more often then not an employee _has to_ take the exact amount of vacation that's mandated in their country.

All I wanted from this article was a table with the list of countries and the amounts of paid days off, but the chart labels only 16 countries. The referenced source includes an im…

I don't know what's Montagnier's position beyond that paragraph on Wikipedia, but a virus undergoing gain of function research could be I suppose described as "deliberately created…

I agree with you that it is very different.

It's no revolutionary idea, but the comments here are dishonest when they compare a 3-month leave to standard european vacation. I would say most middle class europeans take like 1…

There is a solution though. I don't like it, but we use MDM to disable iCloud file sync, scan network communication and such.

Ironically (?) I am immediately reminded of Steve Jobs by reading the first paragraph. Specifically Thoughts on Flash, but there were probably more such press releases. [0] https:/…

So what do you claim as 'not foolish' to think? That there were non-human civilizations before the dinosaurs? Do you consider ants/bees to have civilizations or is it just humans c…

I'm currently playing with something a bit similar and I was wondering about the fair use aspect. What's the consensus on sharing the stylized assets created by diffusion models ba…

Earth without water seems a bit deceptive.

What billing system would you suggest?

So they can charge more per token and decrease the pressure on their infra.

Why can't they condense the vapor on site? Or simply use closed cooling loops? Would it be that much more expensive?

Is it different with data centers?

This page is unreadable for me (on iOS). The videos keep autoplaying and making themselves full screen.

Which ones are confirmed and where's the evidence?
