Your special needs student using a calculator has pretty much no bearing on this conversation.

Does it not? I never get dm’d. Lol

Trying to keep old stuff alive in a digital world is stupid. I do think that kids need to learn to think and research on their own, so AI and grammar and spelling corrections should be disallowed from the laptops and Chromebooks. Having an algorithm fix everything for you and write your papers is developmentally bad.

Haven’t tried summit. Thunder is pretty close to a clone of what I was using on reddit before the api fiasco they had and I bailed. Relay for reddit.

I’ve been using “Thunder” and so far it’s done a pretty wonderful job of things. Very easy to view and scroll on a phone. A lot of options you can set and customize.

I gotta argue against the games costing more compared to cola. A new Nintendo game in 1988 was $40 to $50. At that time hamburger was 99 cents, a value meal from a fast food place was $4, a house was $80,000, a new car was $10k to $18k, and you were pretty much a Middle class family if you made $45k\year. Some original NES games even hit $60 a piece.

So videogames are one of the few things that haven’t kept with inflation. In no small part due to more people purchasing games and less physical overhead, but that doesn’t take away from my stance. 40 years later and a game price has gone up by like $20.

Yeah. I was left pissed and felt ripped off. High seas from that point on.

Or worse. I think it was the original Ninja Turtles movie that I had owned on DVD and the quality of it kind of sucked. Years later I got it on blu ray and I swear they just ripped one of the DVD copies to make the blu ray disc.

It mattered more back in the analog days, I think. Now that it’s all digital, and going through dac’s, its all just about being good enough for 1’s and 0’s to get through. “Noise” doesn’t exist for digital audio. It either works, or it doesn’t.

My house is charged. It’s a fire hazard.

It is waaaaaaay more likely that they’ll be an issue with an EV or ice car in your garage to catch fire than a storage battery like this. This or sodium batteries can’t have a runaway thermal “event”. The chemical reactions aren’t there for it.

The sodium batteries rolling out to market right now should be good for it. Just waiting for them to get out and into use for a few years to make sure their isn’t any immediate unforseen bugs. I just want a 30 year battery and not a 10 year, and time itself degrades lithium based batteries quite a lot. They can make one that will last over 500,000 ev miles, but don’t count on it doing it and lasting 20+ years.

It’s not lithium. This battery wouldn’t be a fire hazard.

Just make one large enough to power my house for 2 weeks and let me use solar completely detached from the grid. I’ll put it on the side of my house.

Yeah. That’s it. Go to sleep now, sweetie.

I had 32 GB of ddr4 3200 speed Corsair.

About a year ago I found a new in box 32GB Corsair exact same set of ram I had at a bin store and bought it for a whopping… $5.

I have no need for 64GB, but even a year ago $5 ram was just way too cheap to not buy.

I didn’t expect that read to be kinda funny. Lol

The latest Lifepo4 batts that catl just got into production this past month or so are set to be way better than even this one here.

Been on windscribe for 2 or 3 years now and been quite happy with them. Fuck those Dutch oven bitch boys for trying to stupidly jack with their server. Thing has probably got like a billion dollars worth of ram inside it.

I actually bet there’s a pedo bear image somewhere in the Epstein files.
