So like, if sand can be used as the first “ingredient” of a CPU, is it possible to use other variants of sand? Or is there only a very SPECIFIC kind of sand used for CPU creation?...
Sand to wafers… Fortunately, there is no shortage of raw material. Silicon is the second most common element in the earth’s crust, comprising about 26% and exceeded only by oxygen at 49%. But silicon does not occur naturally in the pure form needed for electronic applications, for which it must contain less than one in a billion non-silicon atoms. The starting material really is sand. Not just any sand, but silica sand, specially quarried for this purpose and having concentrations of quartz (silicon dioxide) as high as 95%.
Not an dm but why would they immediately kill the prisoners. If the cultists feel that the escapee is going to bring the law then why wouldn’t they flee with hostages in tow. This would slow them down giving the sorcerer a chance to catch up and free them. This could be drawn out long enough for them to succeed. This also would provide the others opportunities to free themselves.
As someone who is not religious in any form besides childhood indoctrination, all I can say is jesus fucking christ. Our country needs a purge of religious extremists. Do your fucking thing. Let me do mine. Don’t push your beliefs on me. Freedom of religion also means freedom FROM religion.
They say it’s a picture of atoms, but what are the atoms: the glowing yellow balls or the entire meatball including the darker red? If it’s the meatballs, then why do some have apparently two nuclei?...
Each of the orbs are the atoms. The brighter orbs that are nearest each other at the Praseodymium (Pr) atoms. The single orbs are the Scandium (Sc) atoms and the less prominent orbs are the Oxygen atoms. I believe based on the content of the article.The space between is just that, the space between the atoms. They are all in a lattice pattern due to how they are attracted to each other.
Yeah. I’m now down to 6480 and the time to wait is now 1hr and 11 min! Not sure how that works but okay! Based on 15min for approximately 500 positions I should be in the vers in about 3 hours.
Consumers have embraced ‘Buy Now, Pay Later’ products that allow them to pay for purchases in installments, but it’s not clear how many of these loans are out there....
Ha! You think the American public has the backbone to take anything by force? Not fucking likely. Corps will utilize law enforcement who are already militarized. Large part of the bell curve of the population can’t even think for themselves let alone coordinate to do something productive. They haven’t got what it takes to stand up for themselves. They think they do but they don’t. This goes for both sides of the 2 party system.
So on my ride home today I’m in the left lane in moderate traffic on a 40mph 4-lane road with a center turn lane. As usual I’m trying to stay just left of the SUV in front of me so I can see the traffic ahead and give myself an escape route in case someone comes flying up from behind. The SUV however, I’m assuming thought...
I guess you are a better person than I. The issue I have is her thinking. She’s attempting to be the enforcer of the rules of law based on her notion of what others are doing. She assumed that you were going to break the law so to ensure you’re a good little rider she was willing to break the law and almost hit someone else not even in this stupidity. Good on you, fuck her.
You did the right thing.Definitely the safer way of handling things. Besides attempting to educate her. As someone said most people in my experience that do that type of “law enforcement” are ready for a confrontation. I prefer the finger and removing myself from the equation method which sometimes exacerbates the situation.:)
I give two shits about Wells Fargo. So my issue is with your position of not trying children in criminal courts. What should societies do about children running amok and doing whatever they want? What do you think we should do to educate them about the repercussions of committing crimes?
Therapy, works, when the individual wants to change. At this level of crime there is a slim chance of that desire.
Their peers are likely part of the reason they are committing these crimes. Too much freedom due to the environment that they were born into , by no choice of their own, also contributed. To be clear I don’t even blame the parents most of the time. Even they can’t out influence the friends group. The abuse, well it’s no lie that the judicial system needs to be fixed at ALL levels, but where’s the money in that?
Your method needs to happen way before they get to this point so that they have less of a chance to get here.
So between juvi and therapy there still isn’t a resolution to fix them all. Or even fix a greater percentage of offending children.
These kids, not likey anything will fix one of them let alone all of them. Am I shity for giving up on correcting their learned behavior? Yeah most likely. Facing consequences for ones actions still seems to be the answer for me.
You could say that with most any hardware. You could have a dedicated server fail and have your network be down till you got another instance up or have a “fall back” kick in.
What makes Rasp Pi so much more unstable? If anything a couple PIs are definitely a cheaper solution compared to other hardware like you are suggesting?
My girlfriend is be very interested in putting Blink (Amazon) cameras up around our property. I am not interested in paying Amazon to keep our security footage....
Reolink is a Chinese company. Not known for their privacy. My experience with their cameras is the quality is meh and their software is even more meh. It amazes me how often they get recommended. I guess it’s due to their cheapness.
So this is something that I experienced with Boost for Reddit as well, but it occurred randomly: whenever I zoom in on a picture to see details, or read words better, within Swipe View I cannot simply pan the image around. The app seems to think I am trying to swipe to the next post....
Swipe View is also my preferred view but damn does it come with its drawbacks.
To address your picture issue first, I also experience the same effect however my workaround is to drag diagonally while zoomed.
One other issue with images combined with walls of text. There is no way to make the wall of text disappear unless I find i separate post with an image tap it to make the title and words disappear the return to the post, or go into comments and tap the photo.
My other issue is “Mark as read / hide read” does not work unless you go into the comments. Swipe View gives you the whole post minus comments. I believe it should count it as read.
This is my first time hearing this saying as well being a yank and all. Anyways, I currently work for a company that had a meeting with biscuits (doughnuts) and pretty much everyone that showed up was let go. Those that by chance had something else to do, dodged the shady way to fire people. Legal issues insu no. Needless to say doughnuts are not common around here and when they do get brought in this event always gets brought up.
Leave it to corporate America to pervert something that is supposed to be nice.
Amidst California’s ongoing efforts to promote environmentally friendly transportation and the changing landscape of hydrogen fuel infrastructure, Toyota has announced a dramatic rebate of up to $40,000 off MSRP for the 2023 Toyota Mirai.
Interesting. From what I’ve seen most of the tech that is used or being researched to produce hydrogen using electrolysis ranges from LTE (low temp) the least efficient at 70-80% to HTE (high temp), PEM (proton exchange membrane) and others using chemicals range ,from 70-90% efficient. You are correct in saying that the current cost constraints is the cost of the electricity being used. However with the amount of energy and the effects of strip mining processing and environmental effects. Hydrogen has just as much potential if not more as a future alternative to ICE.
Oh and according to Toyota on their Miria hydrogen vehicle it only takes ~5 mins to refuel.
Thanks for elaborating. It opens the discussion and understanding of potential mindset against this tech.
You can already do this. There are plenty of vids that show you how and it’s pretty easy to get started. Expanding functionality to get it to act and respond how you want is a bit more challenging. But definitely doable.
