- Comment on Realistically, what do people plan to do on the Moon and Mars that requires a permanent, or long term human presence there? 3 days ago:
There’s a difference between musk and bezo talking about Mars, the moon and space, and nasa talking about it.
- Comment on Realistically, what do people plan to do on the Moon and Mars that requires a permanent, or long term human presence there? 4 days ago:
It’s also a good distraction, doubt they actually think people will live on the moon or Mars
Someone else pointed out that you could set off every number that has ever existed and the earth would still be more hospitable than mars
To repeat myself a little, it’s all a distraction from making things better here, like the bezoes quote about getting 10,000 Einsteins in the first by expanding in the solar system, and it’s like dude, you might have 100 Einsteins pissing in bottles in your warehouse right now but they can’t afford school or groceries or rent

For real, Bethferny in HR isn’t killing your games. This person’s whole yt channel is a farce. Of course the exec is gonna say anything but that the exec is at fault. Literally ceo brained take from Fryer, and the gamer gaters eat it up.

Not all answers are easy. This new dlss looks like it was trained on stolen work. Old dlss had a neutral network that was tuned before the plagiarism machine became popular.

- Comment on Why are laptop adapters so much larger than phone adapters of same power rating? 1 year ago:
far different size.
Size first. Power electronics don’t have the same miniaturization benefits (or expectations) for laptops as they do for phones. Some factor here is that there’s just a different convention for these two different types of devices.
larger bricks that have separate mains cable which plugs into the brick
There’s a manufacturing benefit having one circuit where you can just change the mains cable for length or country adaptor types. High probably the wall warts have the same ability, but it isn’t as obvious if the plastic parts are press fit.
Why is that so?
Some laptops could run off of 65 w, but only the very basic types. An Alienware m18 R2 gaming laptop has a 280 w adaptor and it isn’t close to the same size or price as a phone adaptor.
Same for phones. 65 w is pretty beefy for a phone charger. It will come down to the requirements of the device.
Generally speaking, a charger can have more amps than the phone or laptop requires and that’s usually okay. The voltage is what you have to be careful about. 5v is kind of a common electronics safe voltage. Good chance all these “universals” chargers are 5v.
Again, something like an Alienware m18 R2 is going to require more than 5v.
Or is it simply cheaper to manufacture while being sold for the same price?
Good chance of that. Much easier to price fix on big warehouse type online marketplaces.

In aq40 I raided with an actual priest as rl, and he was this bad. It was a combination of him resisting being wrathful when we would wipe, but we also sucked and wiped on the twins like 30 times in one night. One of the most awkward things to hear him unravel and stutter through a few “what the hell fuck guys”
