Personally I avoid anything with proprietary drivers or firmware. Qmk keyboard are plentiful and don’t require OEM software to program.

Keychron had lots of options many with qmk.

For mice a strongly dislike anything razor as they feature and software lock their mice behind registration. Requiring me to sign up to get driver’s is unacceptable.

I ended up with a Glorious D- and it’s been good to me so far.

What sound are you looking for?

I spend as much on maintenance for my Honda Clarity as I do on my Odyssey. I just want to be able to skip the gas station unless im doing a road trip, and I want regen breaking so I dont burn through pads and rotors all the time.

You dont drive a minivan. I swap rotors more often than pads, because its a beast to slow down. Regen would actually really help reduce break ware for me.

Wtf am I supposed to replace my aging Odyssey with then. It’s perfect for PHEV most days it never goes more than a few miles and when I really drive it were don’t hundreds to thousands of miles.

I don’t like the Sienna, the pacifica is trash, the ID Buzz is a maybe but does not seem as practical, and KIAs still catch fire to often for me to trust.

I got a minisforum v3 and it’s amazing. I can actually game on it and use it as a real productivity device. KDE tablet mode works fairly well.

I’m not impressed with the performance of Intel these days not when you can get full Ryzen CPUs with decent graphics in a “tablet”.

I would love this!

i just dont get what the goal was… weird spam.

Compression. While Compression tech HAS improved, its been maintaining our current quality while reducing bandwidth needs.

A 1080p Bluray disk will look far far better than Netflix in 4k every time because its not compressed. The reality is that any form of compression will cause loss in fidelity in some way, so the only way to really improve video is to increase the bandwidth of the video.

I talk to IT nerds frequently who are asking things like “why do you need 16x 400GB ports of non blocking bandwidth” to which I have to explain that a SINGLE stream of uncompressed UHD is 12GB/s and we are trying to put 200+ streams onto their network.

I normally have to pay for services like this. Lucky bastards.

I really want a PHEV Odyssey. The current e-CVT tech on Honda is really good and would be perfect for their van.

I’m going to test drive the IDBuzz at some point but I can’t risk my family in a Kia or Chrysler.

That level of random violence does seem to be up but is still rare.

Sometimes I get a smile out of hearing my partners little snores. Sometimes they jump out and startle me awake with full on fight or flight.

It’s unacceptably bad but at the same time not an issue. I realize that sounds crazy but unless you join a protest or live in or frequent a targeted community then you would think nothing changed.

This is why we don’t have mass protests yet because it’s not actually breaking out of the media sphere for most of America.

It really depends on where. Southern states and cities are seeing more “enforcement”. Some northern and more liberal states are fighting things. Outside of the cities I have not seen any ICE but I’m also not one of the targeted groups.

If you really are worried carry your passport.

Not all of them.

Thank you, even if no one else notices i appreciate the work.

Dont worry it will totally happen and we won’t need a functioning executive branch to enforce the judges ruling on the executive branch.

The good news is that there is already a clear strategy for managing and disposing of this highly radioactive material. The bad news is that the U.S. government has yet to seriously follow that plan.

The very second paragraph covers my point about waste. It’s been a solved problem we just won’t do it because leaving the waste on site is cheaper, and mining new fuel is cheaper. If we adjusted regulation to match actual cost this with l would change.

To my understanding, it’s not that all modern designs include this feature. Not only that, there are many ways to implement it, with different evaluations on their effectiveness.

Fair but lame I should have said most not all. Guess you got me and all my arguments are negated.

According to the World Health Organization, about 7.1 million people die from air pollution each year, with more than 90 percent of these deaths from energy-related combustion. So switching out our energy system to nuclear would result in about 93 million people dying, as we wait for all the new nuclear plants to be built in the all-nuclear scenario.

No one is proposing we stop building renewables while we build more nuclear. This is a bad faith argument and just dumb. Stop building oil and gas plants build renewables and nuclear. The best thing to do is build nuclear on top of existing coal or gas thermal plants.

1. Long Time Lag Between Planning and Operation This is a fair criticism but it’s fundamentally misunderstanding the reasons it takes to long to build. Construction takes to long and costs to much because every plant is custom and we don’t have people with experience building them. It’s we start building new ones we will gain that experience and improved modularity.

2. Cost Cost is a factor but the LCOE of renewables depends on batteries which they don’t factor in or existing fossil fuel plants to provide peaker and base load.

The clean up costs are exaggerated by first generation designs. I’m currently eating dinner in Fukushima prefecture and I have no fear or concern over contaminated food. The reactor designs the have melted down did so because they did not have passive safety systems which all modern designs include.

Storage of waste is also overblown. All the high level waste the United States had created would fit in a modern NFL stadium. And only 5% of that is actually waste. 95% is firtile fuel and could be recycled and put into a breeder reactor. We only generate this much waste because we never invested in breeding or recycling.

Lastly with waste it does not need to be long lived isotopes like cesium or plutonium. Recycling and breeding can turn these actinides into fissile fule reduces the half-life down to hundreds of years not thousands or millions.

3. Weapons Proliferation Risk

This is true, historically governments wanted weapons with their power so the designs we invested in were only ever dual use. Modern designs are much harder to turn into weapons. This was a deliberate choice and we don’t have to make it again.

4. Meltdown Risk

Chernobyl was not a meltdown but something worse as it went prompt critical and created a super critical steam explosion. Had it not flashed both is moderating and coolant instantly it would not have melted down. That design was a cost savings choice without concern for the outcomes.

TMI was a meltdown. And it was due to a lack of passive safety systems and lots of procedural issues that were resolved. There have been no meltdown in the United States since TMI because of those changes. Most running reactor could suffer the same type of failure but don’t because we changed the procedures to prevent it.

Fukushima is perhaps the most valid criticism of “modern” as they decided not to build the sea wall high enough and put the backup pumps and generator on a lower level. It could have been avoided and should have been but humans are not great at evaluating risk.

5. Mining Lung Cancer Risk

This is true of all mining and the best argument for recycling our waste.

6. Carbon-Equivalent Emissions and Air Pollution

I think they said things but the arguments seem to be renewables create less CO2 which ignores storage and reliance on existing fossil plants. Again no one is suggesting that we don’t keep building renewables only that we stop building fossil plants.

7. Waste Risk

Waste is currently a choice not an inevitability. We could choose to recycle, we could choose to breed, and we could choose to use the thorium cycle but we don’t because dumping is cheaper. same with coal ash and gas emissions, we didn’t actually calculate the cost of being responsible. If we did I would expect nuclear to end up costing far less than fossil fuels.
