Is that actually a widespread practice anywhere? I’m in Switzerland and I don’t think I’ve seen that anywhere (other than in one farm near me which is entirely covered in solar panels)

DaPorkchop_,

The nice part about prion diseases is that the only thing those people will achieve is killing themselves off, unless you decide to start eating their corpses

DaPorkchop_,

Yeah, I know it can be mismatched sizes, the laptop i’m typing this on has 4gb soldered + a 16gb DIMM. My question was more trying to understand why manufacturers seem to prefer using one of each rather than just making both replaceable, since the hybrid approach makes it only partly upgradeable while taking up as much physical space as if both slots used removable DIMMs. Since it seems like this combines all of the disadvantages of fully replaceable and fully soldered RAM with only half of an advantage, why are there so many laptops which do it?

DaPorkchop_,

I’ve never understood why so many manufacturers do that (laptops with 1 slot soldered and 1 slot replaceable) it seems like the worst of both worlds:

  • since one slot is soldered only half the RAM can be upgraded
  • since one slot is replaceable the laptop can’t be made thinner since they still have to include the latching mechanism for the one replaceable DIMM

ArrayList isn’t thread-safe, though…

DaPorkchop_,

Only if one thread modifies it while another one is iterating over it, if two threads try to modify the list at once there isn’t any kind of synchronization and it really could break your list.

DaPorkchop_,

I would say the vast majority of people (across all generations) either don’t know, or don’t really understand how extensive it (the monitoring) is and what the consequences of that are.

…are you trying to imply that all neurodivergent people are LGBT+?

DaPorkchop_,

This could be easily resolved by attaching more drones to the fiber at regular intervals to keep it supported.

DaPorkchop_,

just get a 16:9 and play with the display settings to disable the edges

DaPorkchop_,

I think we’re still a very long way away from the point where the hardware for a life-size realistic sex robot is cheap enough for anyone other than a few rich dudes to afford, let alone one which can offer a better experience than a prostitute

pooling media libraries - like distributed storage

I run a full media server, as well do a few friends. Now we had the idea to share our media libraries. In a first quick attempt we, mounted each other’s library folder via an smb share and imported those in jellyfin (all servers connected by VPN) Works quite well, but is kind of cumbersome the more people get in. I had the...

Downside: it’s entirety manual and not scalable whatsoever.

DaPorkchop_,

You can, but it’ll be a pretty one-sided conversation

DaPorkchop_,

+1 for Debian, if you just want a stable, reliable system and don’t care about the latest and greatest features there is no better choice

DaPorkchop_,

As a left-handed person, I despised having to use a fountain pen in school.

That said, a properly done tactical reload of one of those would be pretty cool

DaPorkchop_,

why are you using the internet archive as an image host?!?

DaPorkchop_,

I mean, I get what you’re saying, but the Internet Archive has limited resources as it is and doesn’t appreciate being used as a CDN. They’ve said as much themselves on various occasions

DaPorkchop_,

I mean, from what my friend who works in the ER has told me about patients they’ve had, it sure sounds like a warzone

DaPorkchop_,

Aside from letting you cram more circuitry onto the same size chip, smaller transistors means you can get better power efficiency and reduce heat output.

Basically, even if you just take an existing design and use it to make chips at a smaller node size, you get chips which run cooler and with less power. Those chips can then get you the same performance with better efficiency (e.g. same speed but better battery life), or you can crank up the speed so that you get more speed for the same amount of power as the original.

And as mentioned above, because the transistors are smaller, you can fit more stuff onto the chip. So you can make even more complex chips which also still run more efficiently than their predecessors (both because of the direct power savings from using smaller transistors, and because designs become more efficient).

F.L.U.D.D.

that’s an obscure reference, i never see anyone talking about that game
