Modern-ish cars made in late 90's and early 2000's are lasting and newer models are giving few reasons to replace them. And those few reasons isn't MPG, safety, but gimmicky things like backup cameras, blue tooth, built in usb ports.
First, i am finding many games boring now days... However, my children love playing games with me, from Left 4 dead, Tourchlight 2, even starcraft/broodwars.
But sadly, I find myself unable to(and some what unwilling) to lose myself in games. Adulthood makes it irresponsible, as there are many things I have to, or need to do that take presedence. However I still get some downtime, it's expecially nice when I get to waste time with myds kids on this.
But even whe nI want to play a game, there are few that I feel are worth it.
I couldn't agree mroe on you that they don't have a clue about what they are talking about. Confusion of web vs internet and not understanding that the internet is a mesh of networks..
Makes me think they grew up as a special snowflake that got passed along.
It's quite possible that the PC can't boot from USB.
AMD AM3+ generation motherboards where hit and miss for booting via USB. And then off course you need the USB drivers slipstreamed into the ISO so that it can be accessed via the installer.
I was on the fuel cell hype back in 1995 up until 2012ish. It's not a source of energy, it's a battery. And the most efficient way to make Hydrogen is from methane and or other fossil fuels. This is how almost all hydrogen is produced.
You get people who want to make it via electrolysis using power from solar cells. That nets you at least a lost of 40% right off the top. Current batteries are 95%+, including all losses like transmission lines from plan to house are still 80%+.
There is some hope using biological methods like fermentation or algae. Most of that is stuck at proof of concept, where they think in the next few years it will be economically feasible. Some claim they are, years later they are still proof of concepts. That same process can make biofuels more efficiently.
Photocatalytic water splitting is another spot that shows promise, yet remains in lab projects.
There is also the use of chemicals, or chemicals plus the above to make them more efficient. They just hide or more where the energy costs come from. Same thing with heat, as they considering heat from power plants as free.....
Fuel cell cars would be the least industry disruptive and had billions pored in, yet fuel cell cars still prove to be unfeasible just on the hydrogen production.
pseudo-environmentalists who have somehow convinced themselves that if they prevent new nuclear generators from being built, the need for base load will somehow magically go away.
I state something close, but IMO, better: Pseudo-environmentalists convicne themselves if they prevent newer nuclear reactors being built, the old ones will go away.
What they don't realize is by preventing anything to replace the old ones, the old ones can't go away. This has been Californias problem with any kind of power plant since like the 80's, and has to import it.
In CA the state government has an administration (CA GSA) that exists only to warehouse useless workers.
They _can't_ fire them, the cheapest solution is to just transfer the air thieves to the GSA. It's a six story, full city block building just south of Broadway in Sacramento. Nothing gets done, but they are out of the way.
Think this should be +1 funny..... Or even a +1 sad but mostly true
What you're thinking of is electrolysis of water, and thats rare as it that takes a lot of energy. Even the gasification of other carbon based biomas is used more. Basicly carbon-neutral hydrogen production is little more than a myth that can not continued to go ignored. It will take a lot to beat current battiery technology. That's all this hydrogen fuel really is. An inefficient battiery that less inefficent by using the same hydrocarbons we are trying to avoid using.
Currently, ICE releases small amounts of vapor alogn with it's power output. With fuel FCEV, it will produce a lot more vapor, but yes the local atmasphere will balance itse'f out, meaning it will rain more. https://www.skepticalscience.c... . But that's in places that have more normal rainfaall paterns. Places with very little humidity will(and are ) slowly becomign more humid. Things get messy here as while the water holds more energy, the evaporation lowers it. I will say it will cause climate change.
Current hydrogen fuel production takes fossil fuel + a lot of energy(heat). It is not a solution, but moves where the pollution happens.(at a 60-80% loss, meaning more pollution)
Sure atmospheric water is tied to the temperature, but large masses of earth can hold more. Look at much of the mid-west, or even most of Africa during the dry season. You can test how much more water the local atmosphere can hold by how fast things dry.
The only good thing about hydrogen as a fuel, is that it keeps the fossil fuel supply chain and companies relevant.
It is quite possible they got removed too, or that they have some logic to who they show the verified status too.(seeing how my twitter is more conservative aligned.) Could you please link to ones you see do have the verified icon?
WOW! You are the second person I know to have more than 10ish. I know one person with 20's and they claim to be a plugin addict. I have 10, and think that's on the higher side. I set most people up with uBlock or Disconnect and that's it.
Going over your extentions, some appear to duplicate what already exists. Examples: can use google to translate page. Can shift click to force right click. Seams many of your plugins wouldn't be needed if you used NoScript.
FF 57 with no NoScript, ment that I use Pale Moon with NoScript + uBlock as a minimum until NoScript released for FF.
I feel so naked and exposed, ublock and host files/DNS are blocking only a tiny percentage. How could they release FF 57 without NoScript.
And then its one thing to lose the ability to use session manager, but about:home no longer has the most of the function that it use to, including restore previous session... But they've included the f-uped Pocket crap along with other social media crap.
If ever notice that when thigns are powered off they are still using 1-10wats? Or that LED's are still lit or blinking?
This is the case with PC's, Microwaves, Dumb TV, VCR's, your name it.
PC's no longer have an on/off button. It's now a button that asks the CPU to shutdown. Power is not cut removed, and some parts stay powered on. Can't ask the CPU to power on, if there's no power for it to reconize the input.
Hrmm, so some of these intel systems would have linux on it, and linux would be on some AMD x86 systems, and intel ME isn't on Qualcomm/ARM chips in mobiles that android (linux) runs on, or any of these IoT devices. I'm willing to wager there are more mobile phones in the world than intel ME enabled PCs at this point.
On top of that, I'm willingto be there are more linux VM's than intel ME enabled CPU's.
I'm willing to bet that AMD check-mated him by doing that intel contract to support GPU's to their chips. Why would intel want to hire him, when they can license out what the whole team can do.
Add that to the fact that his big GPU's projects fell short. So I think this is a way to get him to leave without egg all over his face and poaching people.
No, I have actually witnessed first hand, FEMA offices stack with Sun and SGI servers in boxes. And heard them say they have to spend it, or lose it.
It is common, less so in business, but very much so in Government. Government automaticaly grows each budget every year and if it doesn grow they cry a cut in funding.
That was quite some detail in that report. I read parts and skimmed the rest. It basicaly concludes; Tests/sudies done showing large timber structures to have comparible safety, but have concerns with earth quake/fire combo, but with a 2hr fire resist seam fine with. Also a lack of large of full scale tests.
All in all, it looks positive for large timber use, they just want more data and better refinement of requirements for the building code and such.
I've been using my HP LaserJet 1100 Printer for about that long. Newer tech isn't always better.
I know most printers wont work with now gravity, wonder what Epson 800 Inkjet printer, I always envisioned that they would be using some kind of dot matrix printer with reams of paper with guide holes.

I to hate all the code names, buzz words,marketing names, and all that to label a single chip.

What kind of materials are used that can take that kind of heat, even a fraction of the heat destroys most electrical component.
Honestly, it is people like you that keep me coming back to /. , I have yet to find a single site to replace it.(sure there is hacknews and reddit...)
Dunno why, but I always thought the observable effects of what gave the creation of dark matter was always the near massless photons.
near zero mass over the shear size of the universe adds up.
I have a RP2 that's dying (hardware errors)
Do you have links to these studies and other released writings?
I partly disagree here. Only partly...

went to check out d.tube, and ewww, need to start enabling not just their scripts, but also 3rd party scripts just for a page to not be blank.
list of scripts at first pass are ..d.tube
â¦asksteem.com
https://api.asksteem.com/
â¦coinmarketcap.com
https://api.coinmarketcap.com/
â¦gstatic.com
â¦steemit.com
https://api.steemit.com/
See in that list, they still depend on google for stuff. Also when I have to enable a buch of 3rd party scripts, I move on.
btw, youtube only has 4, keeping the 2 doubleclick blocked and the website is perfectly usable, and only 2 enabled.

It's quite possible that the PC can't boot from USB.

There is KB4012982, which is an update that detects newer CPU, and disables futher updates.
https://support.microsoft.com/...
The workaround for that is quite simple, uninstall and block that update, and you can continue to patch...

I'm not seeing the Verivied icon on either https://twitter.com/newblackpa... or https://twitter.com/theblkpant...
