“Optimal” in what way? On an average day, I use ~10-15% of my max charge, with a max range of ~200 miles, +/- a bit depending on outside temperatures. I actually have the “hilltop reserve” feature turned on so I have regen brakes available always, which stops charging at 87%.

Most people do not need their full charge capacity, it’s just nice to have for the occasional road trip. With improved charging networks, ~100 mile range would he plenty for the vast majority of people for the vast majority of days.

The US, but it’s clearly marked and only supposed to be used in engines rated for it.

If a child isn’t telling their parents that they’re trans, it’s likely because their parents have shown that it isn’t safe for them to know. This ruling will put vulnerable children at higher risk of violence from their families, and remove school as a place they can get support safely when their parents are not safe. This ruling will kill trans kids, be it from violence or from suicide.

You guys wanna make some bacon?

I love Brennan and Bud Cubby, the character he’s portraying in that clip.

There is some way to do it using like, group chats and their hosted services, but there is no self hosted server based persistent chat.

Honestly, spinning up the Synapse stack (Matrix) from their Helm documentation wasn’t too difficult. I have not tested the voice chat super thoroughly yet, but the text chat is working great. The hardest part was formatting some of the config files correctly so it would use them properly.

Self hosting TS6 is as simple as running the file and port forwarding setup on your router. I have not tried using it with anyone else yet, as I was not satisfied with the lack of persistent text chat, but setting it up is pretty easy.

If you’re familiar with Docker they have a Docker compose file example as well.

Capone is why we have expiration dates on milk!

Fast storage is relative. It works flawlessly on a budget SATA SSD from like 10 years ago. It would probably have a 1-2 minute load time on a SATA spinning disk, but I have not used a system with a spinning disk boot drive in years.

So I checked the specs, I misremembered. The CPU in the systems I’m using is a Pentium G630 @2.7 GHz with 4gb of ddr3. Benchmarks put that at about double the Celeron N3060 in performance. I’m also booting from an internal SATA SSD.

I think the most limiting factor for you is the live boot, it is pretty much always slower to boot from a live image than from an install.

What hardware are you running this on? I’ve got Ubuntu with KDE running on some ancient Pentium dual core systems from like 2009 or 2010, and it boots to desktop in ~30 seconds or so.

Well nVidia just sells the hardware to the AI companies, so even if the bubble pops, they won’t go bankrupt. They will stop making such obscene amounts of money, but they’re one (also the largest) of the 3 major GPU vendors. Personal computing still would buy from them, as would non-AI datacenters. He wants to keep the bubble going for as long as possible to boost their profits for as long as he can, but as long as people need graphical rendering and parallel compute power, I don’t think nVidia is going anywhere.

Think of them as the guy selling prospectors their tools. They hype everything up and jack up their prices for picks and shovels. When the prospectors don’t find any gold to make their investment back, the shovel guy just goes back to selling shovels at normal rates and prices. Sure, he’s not making as much profit, but he’s still solidly in business.

Most of those areas use propane (with ~100 to ~500 gallon refillable tank) instead of natural gas, but the stoves are still the same. My parents, sister, and grandmother all have propane stoves.

I have this one and it works well enough for controlling my media PC running Mint:

Correct, because there is no argument to be had. Intentionally refusing to use someone’s pronouns is unacceptable, every time, with 0 exceptions. If there’s a dire need to be explicitly clear you’re talking about a single person, you could just use their name in that instance.

Probably because singular “they” predates singular “you” grammatically. Should we go back to using thou and thee instead of the singular you as well?

Singular they is over 600 years old by the way: https://www.oed.com/discover/a-brief-history-of-singular-they/?tl=true

As a trans person, my gender dysphoria is not something caused entirely by social gender roles. Medical transition has greatly alleviated the majority of it. Anecdotally, within the first week of hormone therapy, my dysphoria improved dramatically while only being out of the closet to 2 people outside of my therapist and the medical professionals who prescribed my hormones. It has continued to improve, although I’m still waiting for the surgery that will resolve the remaining things that hormones can’t fix.

Also, there are studies around brain structure differences between men and women, and transgender people tended to have brain structures in line with their gender, not their assigned sex at birth: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causes_of_gender_incongruence#Brain_structure

Perhaps you should believe people when they tell you who they are, and get past your discomfort drawing arbitrary lines in grammar regarding pronouns, when singular they predates the fall of the Byzantine Empire by 75 years.

If you want to tinker with it (probably quite a bit until you get it nicely tuned), the Ender 3 pro for $75 is a good deal. I’ve got one, and with some minor upgrades (raspberry pi running Klipper+Mainsail and a bed leveling sensor) it’s been great. I saw you mentioned using Linux and tinkering with that, so you’d probably be able to get things working well.

After you’ve got a bit of experience, I definitely recommend connecting it to a Pi or other computer to run some kind of web interface for printing, it’s much nicer than messing with an SD card every time. Klipper (firmware alternative!) isn’t too hard to set up (I’m using Mainsail as the UI) and it’s been great. Before that I had Octoprint with the stock firmware which was super easy to set up but more limited.

If you want to just plug it in and have it work perfectly right away, I’ve heard Bambu labs is best for that, but they’re much more walled garden than other brands.

I’ve printed some basic gridfinity bins (the vase mode ones are super quick and sturdy enough for what I’m doing) and baseplates.

I also custom modeled a hook for my headset that would only work for my specific desk.

Just replace the comma with “or”. Go woke or go broke.
