As you said, friction would introduce more wear and maintenance. This gentleman’s idea is to attach a windmill to drive the rotary induction wheel, which would essentially be “free” heat energy, and an interesting hobby contraption. Entertainment and a sense of accomplishment is probably his main goal.

Its not a brand new idea, just a different application of the principle. Induction generators already exist, and they can indeed be used with windmills, but to generate AC current versus heat energy.

More power to this fun and crazy inventor. Maybe he can find practical and reproducible use for this effect. If not, he’s gonna have the most unique water heater ever invented. With this he could make a fully mechanical hot water heater that burns no fuel and uses no electricity. He would just have to make a mechanism to disengage a clutch at the top temperature.

It appears she is the average Republican. That’s the worst looking thing about her.

North Carolina style, head to your nearest electric substation and open fire*

*Doesn’t work for laptops, instead just shoot the laptop

If the inertia didn’t physically damage more than half of those drives, I would be surprised. I don’t think redundancy is a factor in this scenario. This has 3 likely outcomea. Restore from local backup in a different rack, restore from cloud/offsite backup, or the whole company needs to update their resumes.

I mean, they kinda got it figured out. They don’t even have to acknowledge climate change, if hurricanes threaten Florida they can simply redraw the path of the hurricane with a sharpie. Checkmate, liberals.

Not quite as many as Madoff, but some notable folks and investors.

Those are fair points, but I can’t help but chuckle that they were brought to justice because they stole from millionaires and other billionaires to make their ill gotten gains. Probably woulda got away with it if they just stole from the poor and middle class.

You don’t get to make $100 billion dollars and feign ignorance about how you got it and the damage you caused to obtain it.

Don’t you? I can’t think of any instance of justice truly being served to billionaires, can you?

Unfortunately it seems like that is an active sentiment, at least with a vocal minority. Intentional disengagement because they don’t like the choices they have. They would rather Trump contribute to the death of Palestinians, Ukrainians, and Americans rather than vote for the guy who contributed to the death of Palestinians.

To top it off, it’s coming largely from a trans inclusive instance, heightening the chances of putting a right wing nutjob in power right as there is an ongoing anti-trans culture war. It’s like they’re more brainwashed than the Log Cabin Republicans.

You’re right. One interesting option right now is the mustang Mach E, dealers are dropping prices and Ford is giving 0% for 72mo. I just bought a California route 1 for 46k at 0%, and I wasn’t planning on electrifying at current prices until that came up.

Thank you for the read. I figured this one was a thorny issue without even considering the locale/jurisdiction aspect.

From the looks of it, this is an issue that is likely to have to be fought in court to deliver some precedent or legislation will have to directly target this… And that’s just the American side.

I’m honestly glad these comedians and the Carlin family were able to come to a reasonable settlement, so that the Carlins themselves didn’t have to be part of this eventual circus. I feel like George himself would find this scenario pointless and loathsome, and I only wish I could hear the real him talk about it haha.

I have a few questions, and I am honestly asking from sheer lack of knowledge on how to even look this up.

From what I have read, you don’t exactly have copyright of your own likeness, but rather rights to how you can restrict its use for privacy/publicity/commercial reasons. But that applies to you alone. Does your next of kin inherit the rights from you automatically? Can you convey those rights after death? Do people actually do that?

I’m genuinely interested to know if this case was even possible. It’s definitely in poor taste, but despite that it is an interesting experiment and admittedly a good mimicry. Should we expect more like this, or less?

I’m in the same exact boat. I’m glad we got lucky, but you shouldn’t have to get lucky to fulfill basic needs like housing. Shits busted and I hope it gets better for others soon.

Have you not paid attention in the past 5 years? He doesn’t debate or answer anything directly, and he isn’t for democracy. But yeah, let’s hear what the literal Nazi sympathizer has to say.

We have yet to see a lawyer, judge, politician, or rational human being be able to successfully moderate Donald Trump, that’s what the other person is saying. He’s a toddler, he’s either babbling nonsense or he’s having a temper tantrum. There’s no point in a debate if the person you’re debating just wants to whine and lie.

But, I suppose if you want to watch 2 geriatrics losing touch with reality in different ways, at different stages, you could always volunteer at a nursing home.

Different hardware type. Gaming laptops have dedicated graphics cards which generate heat from an additional source, and they have to drive 1080p/1440p/4k content, whereas the steam deck is a 1280x800 screen, which is absolutely perfect for an AMD integrated GPU with reduced thermal management.

The steam deck is a single spec tightly tuned machine and software package not unlike a game console, whereas a gaming laptop is an all purpose machine with hardware all over the spectrum that you can buy what you want/need.

As in too high or too low? Maybe it might be that I’ve only had experience with a mobile 1060, 3060, and 3070 from Lenovo, but all of them seemed to have a target temp around 72-75, that or that was effectively where the fans could keep it at equilibrium when running furmark as a benchmark.

They’ve gotten a bit better within the Nvidia 1000-3000 series, but I can’t vouch for the 4000 series. Better thermal management techniques and lower target thresholds.

That being said, I’m sure there are manufacturers that buck the trend and set higher thermal targets for more performance. I’d say monitor your temps, and target for no higher than 75c if possible.

I would hope not, though I know we’re working off of incomplete information since we’re not on the ground/in their shoes. It’s certainly an appropriate fear to have, but it also cannot and should not stop the reversal of the annexation.

I’m of the mind of asking the Ukrainian government for leniency or due process once the dust settles and the rightful government takes back Crimea.

The other guy… It seems like he is making whatever excuse to suck off Putin that he can 🤣

I kind of have the same sentiment, but I have reservations about what is likely a very small fraction of them.

Mostly the thought of the doctors who are entwined with government, because I’m sure some doctors just want to help. Other than that, I’m sure there’s at least one individual who did it as a way to get or maintain a job so they can make rent and survive, but that just might be me projecting my American fear of poverty onto a situation that doesn’t apply.
