For the curious: The book is ok. The movie remake (there’s been two or three movies made, I think) from the early 2000’s is fantastic; but the thing is, it’s so different from the book that it’s barely deserving of sharing a name. Like, there’s an arching similarity in story, but that’s about it. The story in the movie is better.
Well that sucks. I dug into your info a bit as well, and it seems true. Registered ecc ram that servers tend to use won’t work on consumer desktops.
Good thing I don’t plan on upgrading my PC for at least a few more years.
As a side note, I’m pissed off the ram and storage inventory issue has delayed Valves new steam VR headset release. I’ve never bought VR anything before and was looking forward to it.
All the ram being bought up is going to end up in the 2nd hand market as the hardware is all liquidated out. The prices will crash, and despite manufacturers not increasing their productions lines to build more ram, will still have to compete against themselves from the used market, meaning they won’t be able to keep trying to charge crazy high prices.
The price crash is going to be great. Such a massive yo-yo. Most of the AI companies will just completely eat shit out of it.
I’m not sure if you’re gaslighting, dumb, or just have the memory of a goldfish.
Did you not know that in 1994 Democrats passed an assault rifle ban and magazines couldn’t hold more than 10 rounds? It lasted for an entire decade. Joe Biden talked about trying to do it again, but harsher. It was also 1934 when Democrats created an incredibly high priced tax stamp requirement for automatic weapons, which kept most people from affording a purchase if they wanted one.
It doesn’t matter if you know a bunch of gun owning Democrats. So do I. That has no bearing on the fact that a bunch of Republicans vote red no matter what because “the Democrats want to take their guns”.
Argue semantics about this however you like, but in the US, as far as 95% of the public is concerned, their are two parties. The left are Democrats and the right are Republicans.
Generally speaking, for at least the past 40 years the Democrats have been the ones to try taking away gun rights, while the right has prevented it or put them back. Many people who vote Republican straight up do it for the sole reason of “the Democrats want to take my guns”.
That’s the reputation the Democrats have. It’s true of them, and it’s stupid of them.
Full Metal Alchemist:Brotherhood (Nearly perfect)
The first 9 seasons of the Simpsons (great little 22 minute stories. Character depth is episode dependent, but some of the best episodes of anything television has ever offered.)
Battlestar Galactica (Had some iffy plotlines along the way, but great character development and intriguing story)
That doesn’t make much sense as a law against printers, since it’s far easier and just as illegal to grind off the serial numbers on a gun.
I could make a working metal gun in a day with hand tools and a trip to home depot. Guns aren’t magical complicated devices. It’s a handle and a tube and a pin that smacks a bullet.
This bill is the epitome of stupid and one of the reasons the left has had so many issues becoming the party leaders. Stop trying to play “big brother” and stop trying to fuck with the 2nd amendment.
It’s been known for a while. SEO is pretty easy for doing AI manipulation. All part of why ai sucks and the bubble will end up bursting.
The EPA in the US doesn’t do that, buddy. They give 2 separate ratings. You also don’t understand what MPGe is measuring. MPGe is a pure electric mode. The gas used rating in MPGe is for fuel equivalent it would take to charge the battery back up.
It then also shows the MPG rating, and that rating is what you’ll get after the battery from driving in all electric mode would be too drained and the ice motor will be doing most of the work.
You’re from the US.The US fixed the bullshit method of claimed fuel mileage about two decades ago. This article is all about the EU. Their official fuel efficiency ratings still have room for bullshit.
They can just buy used shit and not play at 4k resolution with 120fps. That stuff will also last longer now.
I just spent a few hundred to upgrade my gaming computer. I bought an old amd r5 5600x from 2020 for $150 and an old amd rx 6600 xt that came out 5 years ago.
I’m more than happy to let the “ever more demanding giant game” trend disappear. Half the games I play use pixel art graphics anyhow. If this pushes devs to make smaller and more creative games that run on decade old systems to reach the most gamers, I’m fine with this, still. Less e waste. Less constant feeling of needing newer components. Less bloatware from shitty games that want 100+GB storage.
Before prices get outrageous on 5+ year old components all these bullshit AI and data centers buying up everything will be dumping the current high end stuff out on the market to make way for newer stuff. And that’s IF the ai bubble doesn’t burst beforehand.
Your special needs student using a calculator has pretty much no bearing on this conversation.
Does it not? I never get dm’d. Lol
Trying to keep old stuff alive in a digital world is stupid. I do think that kids need to learn to think and research on their own, so AI and grammar and spelling corrections should be disallowed from the laptops and Chromebooks. Having an algorithm fix everything for you and write your papers is developmentally bad.

Haven’t tried summit. Thunder is pretty close to a clone of what I was using on reddit before the api fiasco they had and I bailed. Relay for reddit.
The sanctions really should have ended when Castro died at the latest, but I still won’t call Cuba a socialist country. It’s a communist one. It’s under a high amount of control. You’ll get thrown in prison for criticism, internet access is limited, and not everyone is on an equal footing there. Communist or not, the sanctions are still completely bullshit.
I’ve been using “Thunder” and so far it’s done a pretty wonderful job of things. Very easy to view and scroll on a phone. A lot of options you can set and customize.
In this instance, I’d say it doesn’t.
The lockdown from COVID stunted a lot of development. Then the tablets and just that kids are always on a screen drive it home. That and kids and parents don’t care as much about failing grades, and the “no child left behind” has gotten about as corrupt and lazy as our government. Now it just means “your kids going to the next grade, regardless”
