People also don’t realize how incredibly stupid humans can be. I don’t mean that in a judgemental or moral kind of way, I mean that the educational system has failed a lot of people.

There’s some % of people that could use AI for every decision in their lives and the outcome would be the same or better.

That’s even more terrifying IMO.

Doesn’t chickenpox turn into shingles by infecting the nervous system?

Could long covid be related to that?

That is why those other VR sets are so cheap.

With valve, you’re paying for the hardware. With Meta, you’re the product

This is where “universal basic income” comes into play

It’s definitely an arms race. One other outcome is that it gets too expensive to be cost effective and slows down that way.

then we couldn’t export eggs to other countries

Why?

Machines that kill humans is a frightning concept

There’s a lot of hidden cost associated with supporting legacy features/standards/technology

Do they have different frequencies? Require different antennas?

Are there cost implications for radios / amplifiers? Do ASICs support only newer modes? How much obsoleted / legacy HW is required?

And that’s just from a manufacturer standpoint.

Are more licenses required? Or other regulatory impacts?

What a blast from the past

It’s what the models are trained on.

Originally Pandemic 2… i miss flash games lol

And that’s exactly why they want to stop it

Christ- mexico was becoming a good ally for manufacturing.

Lot of engineering is being shipped off to China since big companies like localization to prevent tariffs. Mexico was helping to soothe that.

We’re so fucked lol

Leaded is objectively better for everything except health/pollution. Which is the point of RoHS.

Leaded solder has a lower melting point, flows much better, easier to visually see bad solder joints, and doesn’t form whiskers. Also less brittle, so cracked joints are less likely.

Fumes don’t contain lead, it’s not nearly hot enough. Those fumes are flux burning.

Lead free sucks ass and you can pry my leaded solder from my cold dead hands.

Seriously just wash your hands.
