- Comment on Don't throw away your old PC—it makes a better NAS than anything you can buy 1 week ago:
OK. Science time. Somewhat arbitrary values used, the point is there is a amortization calculation, you’ll need to calculate your own with accurate input values.
A PC drawing 100W 24/7 uses 877 kWh@0.15 $131.49 per year.
A NAS drawing 25W 24/7 uses 219 kWh@0.15 $32.87 per year
So, in this hypothetical case you “save” about $100/year on power costs running the NAS.
Assuming a capacity equivalent NAS might cost $1200 then you’re better off using the PC you have rather than buying a NAS for 12 years.
This ignores that the heat generated by the devices is desirable in winter so the higher heat output option has additional utility.

The horn and a middle finger are already well entrenched as communication tools.
The quality is quite poor, but I’m reasonably sure that being able to talk
toat people sounds worse.Having said that, the idea of CB radio is cool.

I don’t open my trap unless I am positive I know the answer.
This is is a remarkably valuable skill, and remarkably rare.
I’ll stay quiet even in that case if it looks like the answer’s close to the surface of the conversation anyway.

- Comment on Why are children always portrayed as the epitome of "innocence", when a lot of kids are evil af and bully their peers, and name-calling runs rampant in schools? 1 month ago:
Fight is almost always the last resort as it’s the most energy expensive option.
One has to be taught to prioritize fight over the others: hence soldiers needing training.
Then again, I’m reasonably sure there’s some kind of G21N gene present in at least one country’s population that buggers that up.

Sure, crying when hungry, talking, trying to crawl and walk… stuff like that.
Beating the shit out of people for fun is most definitely a learned behavior.

They start life as a completely blank state, everything is a learned behavior.
So yes, infants are innocent. As soon as there is learned behavior, that goes out the window.
