I doubt it’s BS. Those people really care about numbers.

The current tech scape is depressing.

Maybe check your order history if you bought it online.

Although any lithium battery can catch fire if mishandled… You should still probably look for it.

Parets

So do catenaries, rails, etc…

I’m a little jealous of you guys, but we have mostly maxed out our potential in Europe for hydro power already…

France has taken away electricity subventions a long time ago, they were temporary relief during COVID only.

In fact, there are pretty high taxes here too, just the base cost is lower.

And I started this debate to challenge the notion that all of Europe has Germany’s electrical management issues; they’re the main ones to have failed.

Judges you from French 0.20€/kWh nuclear prices

If only you guys had listened to the science… You’d be gaming AND heating your place for cheap!

And regardless, unless the chip is radically different from what has been observed in currently available RTX 5090s, I don’t see how 2400W can be anything other than a transient spike

Yeah, I’m not sure too many mitigations have been backported.

But the attack surface might also be smaller due to simpler pipelines…

Regardless, I’m too much of a perf junkie to give up my modern hardware.

It’s possible with an old enough CPU and a libre BIOS.

That doesn’t mean I’d do it but it’s possible.

That’s why I started my sentence with “In Europe”

In Europe, this is no biggie

I just saw a reputable 2400W kettle on a random online store for 50€

Looks like there are 3000W options too

Don’t forget that today, people have less spare money due to skyrocketing housing costs and various other fixed expenses…

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for sharing!

I’d love to try When Ski Lifts go Wrong, I’m too much of a winter sport fan not to!

It’s so hard to tell how far a bird is by eye that I and, I think, most people would be easily fooled. Especially in clear weather.

No, I’m a happy i3wm user.

Because I’ve tried to get GNOME to do what I wanted. (Also it was too slow on the machines I was using at the time).

And that’s besides the point: on linux you can just use a good DE without messing with much – KDE, cinnamon, etc…

The registry never has and never will be simple nor usable. Windows is rotten to the core.

I agree, I was just giving another example to raise awareness about that feature of rust.

Cargo also has a --git option but I suppose it’s not default behavior

You can have arbitrarily many git “remotes”: GitHub, gitlab, your own custom forge, etc…

Git a cmd tool only. Your can remote wherever you like.
