I thought it was pretty stupid calling the third one “Xbox One” but then going from “Xbox One X/S” to “Xbox Series X/S” was much more idiotic. Nobody would ever think that’s a new generation of consoles. It sounds like a rebrand. I genuinely struggle to understand how a decision like this is made.

But they’ll give me super powers

Looks like somebody did his hair in MS paint but that’s also what it looks like in real life anyway

You’re confusing Watts (power) with Watt-hours (energy). A Watt is a Joule per second. A Watt-hour is the amount of energy you’d use if you used 1 Watt for an hour i.e. 3600 Joules.

Microwaves use around 1000 watts. If you ran a microwave for an hour, it would use 1000 Watt-hours (aka 1 kilowatt-hour (kWh))

I went on a bit of a dive trying to find this out. Listening to Lemmy you’d believe a single text query burns 1,000 trees.

The “microwave for an hour” line comes from this article. It attributes it to Sasha Luccioni/Code Carbon, which monitored the power usage of a computer while it created a video with “CogVideoX” (not Sora).

So OP isn’t exactly right but unfortunately we don’t have much better to go off. I’m inclined to believe Sora would be much better than that. A surprising amount of news articles all eventually lead back to Sasha Luccioni.

There’s a lesson I learnt from playing team games: If your teammate makes a bad call that you disagree with, you should still follow them 100%. Going all-in on a questionable decision is almost always better than second guessing each other.

I think it applies here, and it’s why right wingers and religions are so effective. They don’t care if their arguments are flawed or their leader is a rapist, they’re jumping into that fight every time.

Hi it’s still broken on my machine. I’ve tried turning it off and on again

I’ve said this before but I really want to hear some stories of trans men using the womens bathroom in these places. Big muscular men with bald heads and beards, barging in pissing everywhere and leaving toilet seats up.

I want to see the meltdown when people find out they’re just following the law. Please trans bros do this for me.

My dream is to have two dishwashers so I don’t need to unload. Just pull dishes out of the clean one when needed and put back into the dirty one

I was behind somebody in the queue at Screwfix who was asking for advice after their landlord had glossed the inside of their BATH. What a lunatic.

Yeah we don’t have enough American news, we should start reframing other countries’ news into how it affects America

Bananas are proof of god

I remember thinking they probably just found actors who wanted to die anyway

New Balance do wide fit, but they’re expensive to buy from their website and hard to find elsewhere. I usually keep an eye on Amazon and pick up a pair whenever they’re cheap

I get it a lot, I’m guessing from randomly trying usernames

Trump’ll fix it

I hope you used archival ink so it will last for generations

You’re definitely going to want a second hand laptop if you’re spending 300 quid. Best bet is to look on eBay. Pick a GPU (off the top of my head, maybe a 970 or 1050) and search for those. Then check each result and start comparing. It’s a nightmare trying to see if the CPU is any good. I usually check it on passmark every time

You can also set the solver to use libmamba if you’ve already installed miniconda
