- Comment on Tesla Reportedly Has $800 Million Worth of Cybertrucks That Nobody Wants 5 days ago:
There are a lot of videos of the frame cracking from mild outdoor use, which instantly totals the whole vehicle.
- Comment on Tesla Reportedly Has $800 Million Worth of Cybertrucks That Nobody Wants 5 days ago:
The batteries are still expensive and good to use for anything else. So it should be 20-25k in scrap.
- Comment on Even Starfield's community patch modders are growing 'disenchanted' with the sci-fi RPG, as volunteers depart in droves: 'If nobody comes forward, we may have to retire the project' 1 week ago:
I played through the main quest. I didn’t really enjoy any of it.

You would have to basically make a whole game and rewrite characters and quests to make it better. But that’s a lot of work for modders especially when they’re not that interested in the game to start with.

But really you could make a fantastic game with the engine they had and starfield could have been good if it had great writing and great characters and quests. If people loved it and had some gripes about technical limitations that would be one thing. It’s an okay game with technical limitations, that makes it a bad game.

Yes, the second I realized they were actually doing that with literally copy pasted areas and notes and characters it killed the game for me. I can be reasonable for a dungeon having the same layout but not written content and characters. It invalidates the entire experience.

The fundamental concept and theme of the game is trash. It literally makes everything you do meaningless, it inevitably leads to you becoming the jaded villain. It would be better if they had an end where you destroyed the universe shifting thing and were locked in one.

It’s not AI. It’s just basic software.

If it was just plural the whole time it would only be they them. It only works if you track one individual from egg onwards.

Either way you would run into the problem of having a huge amount of your calories come from alcohol, without any nutrients. Unless you’re just drinking beer, which is just liquid bread.
- Comment on I think Judas kissed him 1 week ago:
Well that’s not really in there, he is often described as an adversary. But it is notable that there are many times where he is used by god in a necessary way.
- Comment on We have reached the “severed fingers and abductions” stage of the crypto revolution - Ars Technica 1 week ago:
No. It’s more that they have higher costs and it averages out around 20 years. So it’s close to the average length of a life sentence except if they’re young. It’s only real cheap if you have a kangaroo court and just shoot people.

It means death is final and you shouldn’t always act rashly. Gollum was a baby eater and absolutely evil.
- Comment on I think Judas kissed him 1 week ago:
It’s the same idea as the actual Satan in the bible who is mostly just a dude given tasks by god to tempt people.

Did you read the article? That’s exactly what it said.
- Comment on Wolf Reboot 2 weeks ago:
There are national forests next to it and native reservations nearby and a more difficult path to Canada, so you would expect some of the males to roam out. That’s only really a problem if they’re isolated.
- Comment on In a Win for SpaceX, FCC May Loosen Power Limits for Starlink 2 weeks ago:
No this is for everything including personal devices. It’s very simple to just say it’s like everyone listening to their phone on speakerphone and the louder it is and the closer you are the more distracting it is to you. Everyone can use it but the more crowded it is the more problems you have. If everyone uses it responsibly then everyone can use it and it’s fine. That’s why the FCC sets power limits because otherwise you could jack up the signal with a ton of power and no one else can hear anything. For signals it is only the same frequency that interferes with each other but all the space comsats use the same popular KU band so they have to share nicely.
- Comment on In a Win for SpaceX, FCC May Loosen Power Limits for Starlink 2 weeks ago:
FCC power limits are generally to prevent spectrum corruption, like they don’t want your radio to overpower everyone else. So yes, more power is generally better for the signal but it’s a shared pool of limited spectrum so your use can hurt other people.

Even lightweight glasses can be irritating and the extra weight from steel v plastic is noticeable. There will never be ar glasses or goggles that are comfortable to wear all the time.

People are migrating there, but if there’s not a lot of content then the few people that really push out a lot of content because they make money will be very prominent.
- Comment on Smartphones and computers are now exempt from Trump’s latest tariffs. 5 weeks ago:
That won’t work, because building a new factory takes 2-5 years and if the tariffs drop at any point then you’re stuck with a product way more expensive that nobody will buy.
- Comment on Smartphones and computers are now exempt from Trump’s latest tariffs. 5 weeks ago:
No I mean it wouldn’t be possible to make them here, if you tried to build a series of factories they would not have enough workers. It’s like an order of magnitude scale difference, the largest industrial plant in the US is 30k workers and in China the big one for iPhones is 350k. And that is 350k people working super long hours. Even in China labor isn’t plentiful anymore, there is shortages of labor in the coastal areas. You try to hire a staffing firm and tell them you want 300k skilled workers in a city and they’ll just laugh at you.
- Comment on Smartphones and computers are now exempt from Trump’s latest tariffs. 5 weeks ago:
It’s not about the price. There just isn’t enough capacity and workers to build that many.
- Comment on Smartphones and computers are now exempt from Trump’s latest tariffs. 5 weeks ago:
No. Even a large tariff on a 3$ piece of plastic that retails for 20-30 won’t be worth adding anything.
- Comment on China launches HDMI and DisplayPort alternative — GPMI boasts up to 192 Gbps bandwidth, 480W power delivery 1 month ago:
Graphics cards only come with one HDMI port though. The LG OLED is popular for 4k screens because it ticks all the boxes and is much cheaper than equivalent gaming monitors, but that means it doesn’t support dp.
And it means that you have to upgrade the graphics card just for the cable even if it is still relatively new. The point is that we shouldn’t be held back by just a cable .
