The I7 has hyper threading which is a ~50% perf boost over the i5

Serious question, why haven’t you upgraded to an i7 yet? They’d have to be super cheap at this point, right?
- Comment on Britons could soon install balcony solar panels in flats and rental homes 1 week ago:
No. the devices on the circuit only pull as much electricity as they need, any unused back feed returns to the main panel/fusebox to be distributed to any other circuits currently using electricity. If there’s still any unused, it goes to the grid to be used.
- Comment on Britons could soon install balcony solar panels in flats and rental homes 1 week ago:
Unregistered as in you but the solar panel and inverter and just plug it into a regular wall outlet with a normal plug to back feed the house.
Before anyone suggests it’s a suicide cable, the inverter have grid sending and won’t back feed power without the grid electricity being sensed.

- Comment on The Purge 1 week ago:
Oh using multiple accounts then?
Nope, multiple people disagree with you.
Or pasta strainer, you keep the pasta.
You’re also supposed to keep some of the water to thicken the sauce typically
You’re trying to ignore common day parlance.
And you’re ignoring the gravel sieve example where everything is kept, because it’s inconvenient for your argument.
- Comment on The Purge 1 week ago:
Well, unless you used the strainer/sieve to get and keep fine cake flour (the water in your analogy) from coarse flour (the contents).
Or like in the way they use sieves to sort gravel. They keep all of it.
My point is, direction is relative.

I’ve tried some of the free mods, but I can’t really recommend them. Definitely steer clear of frying-pan to the dome, and you won’t get any real lasting effect from hold your breath till you’re blue.

- Comment on Senator Josh Becker, who represents Palo Alto, Menlo Park and Mountain View, says he opposes a bill allowing multistory apartment buildings near transit stations. 2 weeks ago:
Well that’s the thing, this bill actually removes the minimum parking requirements. The opposition is just NIMBY

Was that before they discovered the Romulans were long lost Vulcans?

It’s only good for 10-15 years before they have to shave more cornea off, best to wait for the last possible moment

- Comment on Schumer to Slow Trump Justice Dept. Nominees Over Qatari Jet 1 month ago:
Yeah, except I remember when Lil bitch McConnell refused to allow ANY Obama appointees through the process. Democrats should have been doing the same thing already, but they’re just now slowing things down
- Comment on How does Netflix, HBO and other services get their subtitles? Are they now using AI to help translate? 1 month ago:
Subtitles and closed captioning is generally handled by the producers of the media. I’d it’s a Netflix original, Netflix hires someone to transcribe. If the media was purchased or rented from day Fox or Paramount or MGM, the original producers would have been responsible for it.
I’ve certainly seen some subtitles that have to be ai generated based on the ridiculous number of homophones and sound alike captions

- Comment on I need a cheap part to fix a bread machine that's under warranty. "We can send you a new machine." 2 months ago:
I think tpu does come in food safe formulations. For a gasket that isn’t coming into contact with food, and wouldn’t regularly be washed anyway, I wouldn’t really have concerns. Especially if you can design the gasket thin enough to reduce the number of layer lines.
I’d have more concerns if the printed part came into direct contact with the food. Anything you’d want to put into a dishwasher is completely out of the question; thermoplastics don’t handle the high temps gracefully
