Ah, of course. Although, they did mention coatings to protect the material, but it does sound like it will be more fragile than existing plastic.

This sounds borderline miraculous, and I have a feeling there’s bound to be a catch. I hope not, but I’m just too cynical.

Elon calling someone a pedo is a bit boy who cried wolf, but he may just be right.

There genuinely were German spies in Britain though.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 days ago:
You’re actually making a solid point there, the fact this dude’s daughter is trying to set him up with a friend, and the friend thinks this is an idea worth considering, is quite bizarre.
Not necessarily wrong, just bizarre.

It’s also great leverage. Sell me the rights, or I’ll destroy the value of your asset.

Are there? Or is there one bored individual with a bunch of alts all following the same theme?
- Comment on YouTube tops Disney and Netflix in TV viewing 1 week ago:
It’s good to see though, their original shows just aren’t very good.
- Comment on YouTube tops Disney and Netflix in TV viewing 1 week ago:
I’ve definitely noticed this, you watch one or two videos that are from a popular genre, and all of a sudden that’s half your recommendations. I’ve found the “not interested” option does work though.
They do have a lot of viewing history to work with though.

I haven’t seen one of those Rewind videos in years, are they still a thing?
- Comment on YouTube tops Disney and Netflix in TV viewing 1 week ago:
There is a paid version, and it’s good value for money in my view.

YouTube is basically where all the science and engineering content has moved to. How it’s made, megafactories, air crash investigation, if you enjoyed that type of content, it’s now on YouTube.

Probably a whole lot less.

Or wear out the wall switch.
- Comment on Is it OK to leave device chargers plugged in all the time? An expert explains 1 week ago:
You could save yourself cents per year!
They don’t actually say how much power a charger uses on standby, and make an unsubstantiated claim that they “wear out” due to “voltage fluctuations”. Sure thing.
Absolutely pointless article.

Precisely.
- Comment on Rip willy boy 1 week ago:
This is one situation where there is no “good guy”, in my view.
Chris Rock made fun of someone’s medical condition (the hair loss isn’t a fashion choice), and Will Smith overreacted.

Either to take a very long time to get to the point, or to go off on a tangent.
Writing concisely is a lost art, it seems.

Ironically, the author waffles more than most LLMs do.

There’s a handful of songs where I listen to the radio edit, and just wonder why they bothered.

You would still need to run the computer off multiple plugs, as almost any 240v plug is 10a.
You’d likely need a dedicated breaker and plug, similar to a stove plug.

Just FYI, I’ve tagged this guy as “kinda a dumbass” in the app I use.
I wouldn’t spend too much effort arguing with them.

If you’re earning that much money, you’ll pretty quickly end up in the 1% of net worth.
And these people earn around 10x the typical household income.
- Comment on The Telegraph has deleted this sob story 1 week ago:
Dude, just stop.

That’s many times what the typical household income is, and most people would certainly consider that rich.

What about the rest of the computer though?

If you know how to create an account and post here, you also know how to look up words.

A GoFundMe crowdfundraiser has since been launched to help with her medical bills and to afford a lawyer to press charges.
The US is utterly fucked. Nothing short of a revolution will save them.
- Comment on 53% of Israeli public opposes aid entering Gaza, new poll shows 1 week ago:
No, just a blockade of Israel would do it. No need to actually go in, just close the borders.

I think at this point they need a taste of their own medicine.
