Instead of wasting taxpayer funds trying to delay the inevitable, the state should do what it should have done a hundred years ago and invest in expanding public transport options.
The high speed rail project is awesome and should continue, but that doesn’t help people who just need to get around town, or to the next town over.
That means that somewhere among the stars are planets full of sexy alien babes.
Finally something to live for.
That’s where Buddhists who die with bad karma get reincarnated.
If you’ve never had the Indian soda Thums Up, it’s remotely like this. It tastes like Coke spiced with ginger and similar spices. It’s actually pretty good.
Hell yeah brother that’s where all the cool people are going
Pfft, you think you’re going to heaven.
Surprised no one’s commented on the other end yet.
The review I linked quotes 5-8W under load so I’d expect it to be about 10 hours on the Framework 13’s 55Wh battery and about ~15h on the Framework 16’s 85Wh battery.
But it also can’t play a 1080p YouTube video worth a damn so it’s hard to imagine what you’d actually wanna use it that long for.
It is absolutely more of a development board than one meant even for early-bird adopters. The processing power is more on-par with a Raspberry Pi. Here’s a review of another development board using the same processor: https://bret.dk/risc-v-starfive-visionfive-2-review-jh7110/#Geekbench-6
Compare the Geekbench 6 scores to the Ryzen 7040HS in the Framework 16: https://browser.geekbench.com/v6/cpu/4260192
As the review author explains, Geekbench 6 is a bit unfair to the JH7110 since it’s missing some processor extensions, but even if we pretended it had a similar lead over the Pi 4 as it does on the Unixbench suite, it’d still be an order of magnitude behind the AMD processor.
You’re not really gonna be gaming on this thing, and you might not have a great experience even with normal desktop productivity software. These boards are likely gonna be relegated mostly to compiling code and running tests.
If a future revision is a little more powerful though, it could maybe make for a decent netbook. At just $200 it could also be a pretty good value for the education sector, maybe as a dev board for systems programming courses.
If any store starts requiring a fucking app to make a purchase, that store has permanently lost my business.
You have not earned the privilege of being installed on my phone. Get the fuck out of here.
The answer (most likely) is a combination of wind and ice: https://www.nationalparks.org/connect/blog/sailing-stones-death-valley
I’ve been boycotting Facebook since before it was cool.

This is a neat trick but it works best on Linux and maybe macOS.
Implementing it on Windows requires some luck as you can’t just map adjacent pages, you have to just request two of them and hope the OS gives you two contiguous ones. For example, see this abandoned Rust crate: https://github.com/gnzlbg/slice_deque/blob/045fb28701d3b674b5da413266ca84b3e5a70190/src/mirrored/winapi.rs#L57
You also wouldn’t have paid to use Honey.
That’s my point? Nothing is ever truly free?
I pay $100/month for internet access.
Lemmy may be free to access, but certainly not free to host. Am I paying for it personally? No, but someone is.
You also don’t see Lemmy paying hundreds of YouTubers and influencers for ad spots.
The very first time I saw an ad for Honey I knew there had to be a catch. Nothing is ever free.
It wasn’t immediately obvious how they were going to make money, though. I figured they’d just sell gather and sell user data. I had completely forgotten about affiliate links. But they probably also sell your data for good measure.
You know how big an antacid tablet is? About that amount.
Limestone, calcite and chalk are the same compound as the active ingredient in antacid tablets: calcium carbonate. There isn’t much danger in eating small amounts of it.
I always thought it was because they were supposed to be more like real sea sponges.
