That turned out to be because of some prerelease ssds with nonfinalized firmware that shouldn’t have been in the wild.
techspot.com/…/109370-windows-11-cleared-all-char…
The group speculated (and Phison later confirmed) that this early firmware was the real cause of the instability. Unlike the finalized firmware shipping on retail drives, the engineering preview caused crashes under stress. To prove the point, Phison ran the same stress tests (100GB to 1TB sustained writes) on consumer-available SSD models and reported no failures or crashes.

The ps5 came out 5 years ago now at an msrp of 500usd, on bestbuy right now you can pick up a ps5 for 500 usd. Granted you now get the slimmer version.

Video games got this figured out, most difficulty screens say something like “Choose your difficulty (you can change the difficulty at any time in Settings)”
You could also add a checkbox that says “remind me later” or “never show this message again”

There’s a few places that use the water runoff from a nuclear power plant to provide hot water or heating to surrounding homes. Apparently they only have a lose about 3% of the heat and can supply a 100km area.

x!^(n) is the product of the positive numbers congruent to x (mod n) and less than or equal to x. put more simply x*(x-n)*(x-2n)…
so 10!!! = 10*7*4*1

there was an old redditism that the best way to get off with murder is to use your car and call it an accident… I wonder if this is that. Get plastered, kill a nazi, go to jail for 5 years instead of 20.

If you don’t eat the brain you’ll have a much much lower risk (your link suggests about 9x less likely), and if the person you eat wasn’t a cannibal then your risk is lower still.
Also worth mentioning that Kuru is a specific disease for natives in Papua new guinea , and it only existed for about 100years and was going away on it’s own when the cannibalistic practice was outlawed.
I think the health risks of cannibalism is very exaggerated.
(this is not an endorsement of cannibalism)

Yeah but here is too small to meaningfully impact anything.
Best you can hope for is to build a reddit community and then offload them here (or discord as an intermediary) to actually talk freely.

That’s windows 98 background colour isn’t it? That is 0x008080 so it is literally, by definition, half blue and half green.

That’s true but the dose is incredibly low, about 0.03–0.1 μSv per scan. This is the equivalent to a couple minutes of background exposure or eating a banana. A flight new york to LA is 40μSv.
