The Hunger Games probably made a crap ton of people learn the word.

Yeah it is clear as day here. Airflow is inadequate while the product is in use on hotter days.

It’s still known for electronic _box sales. Especially around graphics card releases.

Ancestry stuff has been pretty popular in the US for decades, DNA testing for it is relatively new but just the next easy step.

Someone never had to deal with mathematical proofs, only layman’s definitions.

All properties of a parallelogram apply:

• Opposite sides are parallel
• Opposite sides are congruent
• Opposite angles are congruent
• Consecutive angles are supplementary
• Diagonals bisect each other

AND

• All angles are congruent
• All sides are congruent
• Diagonals are congruent
• Diagonals are perpendicular
• Diagonals bisect opposite angles

That’s because when it comes to Apple, hypocrisy is the way of life.

Played for about 2 hours yesterday and that’s exactly what is happening. The game prevents you from plopping your space right on top of another base but the blocked region around it isn’t very large.

Starlink provides service to areas where fiber is impossible. Like the middle of the ocean and actual rural areas where fiber runs could be tens of miles or more between homes. Those are area where no one will build out fiber unless the homeowner is paying for it themselves, the various government programs would never cover those actual rural areas despite what they claim. At best they might cover city outskirts for new infrastructure, where fiber nodes are already relatively close by. They’re never adding fiber to existing rural farms and ranches.

They are not a 1:1 service comparison. You would need to compare It to other satellite providers, and there isn’t a comparison because all of those are dogshit in comparison to Starlink.

There’s a reason it’s as popular as it is so quickly despite satellite internet in general not being new. The low earth satellite constellation means a massive difference in capability compared to conventional geostationary satellites. Multiple second latency, slow downloads nowhere near advertised double digit Mbps speeds, single digit Mbps upload speeds and often monthly data limits as low as 50GB per month are what the conventional satellite providers offer.

You realize that with a federated system they’re not just handling their own users right? They could defederate from the servers that host users causing issues, but that also means all of their users cannot interact with all those communities, without a choice. Lemmy currently only provides a sledgehammer when they really just need more fine tools.

It’s not just federated networks. It is anything with user interaction. Managing and moderating any sort of sizeable social media site is a lot harder than people think.

Fascinating how quickly you can forget the actual abuse when thinking about an abusive ex.

Often this is because of those little shit pin connectors for the power button getting pulled loose. How has a better, standardized option not been made for those yet?

Crazy, thought for sure it would fail testing.

Still wouldn’t trust it personally after a failed stick from a matched pair regardless of what the test says though.

(used to have 2, one died)

That would make me immediately look to the RAM as the possible source or corruption. If it used to be a matched pair and one stick died, the odds of the other being on its way out are MUCH higher than normal. I would never trust that matched stick.

Similar issues even with just 2 DIMMs with some XMP/EXPO profiles not working on AMD systems because of board/CPU limits. It should technically work, but for whatever reason it just can’t handle it and speeds need to be dropped or the timings loosened a bit even though the RMA itself is rated for that.

Not that the higher speeds are even necessary for 90% of users outside extreme overclocking. DDR5 6000 is basically where you reach diminishing returns anyway, and that’s often where that limit seems to appear.

Yeah AMD’s memory controllers, especially DDR5 seem to have a lot more difficulty at high speed with 4 slots filled. I used to plan upgrades around populating 2 slots and doubling if needed a few years later, instead now you really need to plan to ignore those slots if you are needing memory performance for things like gaming versus raw capacity.

Dug into it, got into Memtest’s source code and discovered that the first pass is shorter on purpose so that it quickly flags obviously bad RAM. Apparently if you want to detect less obvious issues, you have to run multiple passes.

I thought it was common knowledge that Memtest needed to be run for multiple passes to truly verify there are no issues. Seems that’s one of those things that stopped being passed down in the community over the years. Back when I was first learning about overclocking around 2005 that was emphasized HEAVILY, with the recommendation to run it at least overnight, and a minimum of 10 passes.

Which arguably is a decent use case for it. As it is there’s some stranger or in-between going through them for the same reason, at best. And most likely then just putting them into categories, not actually applying any sort of analysis whatsoever for most governments or politicians that receive those emails.

I wouldn’t say a red flag at this point, every fucking company says it now, regardless of size. But it is something to take note of and watch closer. Just wait until you see what kind of family before really committing.

Is it a dysfunctional family that expects everyone to go above and beyond for nothing on return and punishes you for not? Or is it a family that pays attention to when things are happening outside work to help in any way because they actually get that happier employees work better?

I’ve worked for both personally.

And just a normal business transaction for the corporate landlords that actually own those types of office real estate.
