  Black Friday sales aren’t shit anymore, I waited until last black Friday and no good drives ever went on more than like $5 discount.

  With all drives being imported and tarriffs in the US being a total shitshow you should buy ASAP.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"The Continental United States" should include Alaska since it's still a part of the same continent, but common usage of the phrase seems to exclude it anyway.⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve heard it better described as the “Contiguous United States”, which covers the fact that you can’t get into Alaska by land without exiting the US.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are you so young that you have never been in a car with one of these?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Old luxury cars are the bomb. My girlfriend has an 84 Cadillac Eldorado project that has a cig lighter and ash tray for every seat - which is awesome on road trips when everyone wants a device charger. Plus they’re super super comfortable. Even on old suspension it feels like riding on a floating couch.

  Now if only the engine swap we did could keep any of its engine oil inside the oil pan, it’d be great…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Peak Energy just shipped the US's first grid-scale sodium-ion battery⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m really excited about na-ion, if commercial BMS circuitry was available I would already have some for a few home automation and sensing projects because of their low temp performance alone. But I’ll have to spin up a custom implementation with an arduino or something and I don’t have that kind of skills lol.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI in Wyoming may soon use more electricity than state’s human residents⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Majority, but not 100%. My point is Wyoming is a pretty supplier for electricity to most of the western grid interconnection system and taking multiple GW out of the export market so suddenly is gonna hurt the entire interconnects stability.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI in Wyoming may soon use more electricity than state’s human residents⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  As I mentioned on the last post

  Its going to ruin most states around it too, Wyoming is a massive net electricity exporter, due to cheap coal and wind resources. A majority of what they produce is transmitted to neighboring states, as far as Oregon and Washington.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Some people think that proprietary software for a 3d printer is a plus?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I already do that, semi-frequently, but it can be a pain to get right for parts that require really accurate geometric stability (e.g I’ve been printing some engine components out of PA6-CF these days, had to redesign a few to fit on the build plate).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ancient filament, salvageable?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  PLA has a shelf life, it does degrade a little especially if in a room that had sunlight. Over 3-4 years old it may not ever be usable.

  You may need a very long dry time (multiple days) due to the spool likely being wet completely throughout.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Some people think that proprietary software for a 3d printer is a plus?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I would unironically kill for a printer with very large but short dimensions like that

  99% of the time when I’m limited by my printer’s footprint, it’s in bed area not total volume.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tens of thousands knocked offline after software failure at Musk’s Starlink⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeahhhh about that.

  LEO satellites have a lot stronger signal and their phased array terminals have a surprisingly good SNR. This isn’t your grandpa’s Hughesnet.

  I never have more than a second or two of interruptions out there even though heavy rainstorms. Thunderstorms directly overhead sometimes knock it out for a few minutes if they’re dropping hail and lightning but I usually unplug my computer during those anyway. Its all about maximizing its view of the sky so it can always pick the strongest satellite at that time… M

  I hate musk too but the engineering quality in starlink is insane.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tens of thousands knocked offline after software failure at Musk’s Starlink⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  but with Starlink what we get is the entire connection dropping every minute or so, and coming back up a short while later

  I can almost guarantee that’s because their terminal is in a shit location with too much of the sky obscured by trees or buildings. I had to set my parents up with it two years ago and if it can’t see as much of the constellation as possible it’s going to have periods of obstructed sattelite connectivity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“You can't be expected to have a successful AI program when every single article, book or anything else that you've read or studied, you're supposed to pay for” Donald Trump said⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  We do. The issue is at the college/university level, most courses require specific edition textbooks (they update them every 1-2 years) that the professors assign homework questions out of. You’ll be lucky if the school library has a copy more recent than the last 8 years.
  Then on top of that, many professors will also use digital 3rd party homework services that are tied to a textbook access code that you only get with a new copy. So unless you pay up you can’t do homework and fail the class.

  The whole system is fucking bullshit

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨True Luxury⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Advertising a Chevrolet as luxury is kind of ironic. Even their high trim specs were pretty bare bones.

  If you really wanted luxury, get a Cadillac.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are the games you played in your youth that you still play today?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The original and Rise of Rome are great. If you don’t have Rise of Rome it’s almost mandatory, it runs a lot better and has a lot of quality of life improvements, like a higher population cap.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are the games you played in your youth that you still play today?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll still crack open any one of the Age of Empires series from time to time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Right to Repair Gains Traction as John Deere Faces Trial⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Kubota does not make equivalents to a lot of JD’s lineup. Their biggest tractor (M8) really only has the traction weight and horsepower of JD’s midsize tractors, which don’t cut it for a majority of US farms needing large tilling implements.

  That doesn’t mean they can’t replace JD at the smaller scale stuff though, and honestly they should.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Been a good couple of years⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  their mobile app isn’t even their own base code. they bought out and built it on top of Alien Blue, which was one of the earliest and arguably best mobile apps for Reddit. all they had to do was not fuck that one up and they would have straight up driven the other popup 3rd party apps out of business by just being good and official. but of course, reddit must always rise to their incompetence.
