No problem. So much enshittification on the web these days, don’t need so much RAM, I might sell some.

Hope somebody here shorted 1000 shares the day they hit $220.

Wonder how many school lunches or college degrees that ‘flag blue’ color would have paid for …

would be worth $3,703 today. Or perhaps $250 tomaro when the AI bubble pops. An investment in the market is obviously worth more to those high-living traders, of course (and those fee-loving brokers), so they concur.

And whatever they say the victim did is often what THEY did.

One symptom: “explosive diarrhea”

Wash your hands, fruits and veggies first !!

Animals are sometimes declared ‘extinct’ (no one is aware of any living examples) while they still exist (sometimes for decades).

Until 1967, noone was aware of the existence of gamma-ray bursts, the result of the biggest explosions in the universe. The bursts were only visible to specialized satellites.

Right now, people are suffering from diseases caused by unknown viruses.

Prolly not … but congrats on owning a chunk of the everlasting!

Next time, instead of buying, take the idea home. Think about it first.

Promises, promises. I haven’t heard of one that’s actually in commercial operation right now.

But, apples and oranges… it’s a bullshit choice. Power plants generate power, DC’s consume power.

If you going to generate power, why look beyond solar/wind and batteries? At a much lower price, and much faster build times, they too are ‘physically incapable of going into meltdown’, and are already in use worldwide, no wait time.

As far as DC’s go, they depend on very new technology (enjoying a trendy fad) which -will- get far less power-hungry than they are. Or else. (The grid’s not ready for them.)

The only people in a rush seem to be the people who invested in all the snake oil promises that LLM’s are real A.I. … which they aren’t.

My view is that most technology is a tool, like a screwdriver. You can carefully and enjoyably use it to build something useful, helpful, enjoyable. Or you can use it like a psycho.

A friend gave me this firm ‘Sacro-ease’ pad/cushion, it’s about an inch (2.5cm) thick on the bottom and 2 inches on the top. Move the bottom up or down for best relief. Use it on my old chair all day, helps a lot.

There you go, that’s gotta be it. /s

Sundials date back at least as far as Egypt and Babylon. They’re still found in gardens and old cities. Can be tricky to set the time accurately! helps to have a compass.

I would again recommend that anyone doing online marketing and/or tracking be legally confined to the .COM TLD. Severe penalties for corporate abuse would include removal of all internet access. Less severe penalties might include a confiscation of double of all profits made outside of .COM during a deliberate infraction.

There would be no cost for any TLD’s outside of .COM; all regulation and legal costs to be paid-for by .COM - users.

Whatshisname ruled the USSR for over 20 years … tried putting his name all over everything. Renaming major cities for example … and within a short time after he died, Russians pulled down all the statues (smashed with sledgehammers) and renamed the cities. Hmmm. wasn’t Ozymandias …

“You’re Going to Have to Trust Us”

Is that anything like “Don’t Be Evil”? (Google motto, 2004. No definition of evil followed.)

Reagan once said “Trust But Verify”. So … where can we do that at? (and who pays?)

For years, just in case I’ve missed disabling some FF telemetry … Every night I disable networking. Mornings I start FF up first, and (once my -local- home page is fully loaded) only then do I enable networking.

I guess that’s okay, if we really got our money’s worth.

Here’s a back-up, science paper on MOF from Nature with measured numbers. 8 liters per KG per day isn’t 1000 gallons until you get to 2 tons … but it’s about 200 liters per out of 25 KG … easily carried.

"The effects of temperature, relative humidity, and powder bed thickness on the adsorption-desorption process are explored for achieving optimal operational parameters. We found that Zr-MOF-808 can produce up to 8.66 LH2O kg−1MOF day−1, an extraordinary finding that outperforms any previously reported values for MOF-based systems… "
