  • Thinner!

  • The only thing that would significantly add to the weight is a bigger battery

    You said get rid of camera bump. That means making the entire device thicker because of the limits of optics. Batteries are already around 25% of the total weight so doubling battery life would increase weight 25%.

  • You want bigger everything and less weight.

  • Data centers need electricity, utilities need years to build – who should pay?

    Jump

  • But that leaves the utilities with alle the risk,

    Not if you make the data center pay for it.

    If a consumer wants a utility upgrade, the consumer pays all costs upfront. I know this because my neighbor works for the power company and was trying to get gas lines run to our neighborhood. The cost the power company would charge us was hundreds of thousands which even divided by the number of homes meant it would never pay off vs outlr existing cost for propane delivery.

  • The resources are finite whether the taxpayers pay for the construction or the corporation that needs the electric upgrade pays.

  • I bought an Ender 3 V3 (corexz) recently, and have been having bed adhesion issues. Please help me interpret this bed adhesion test result

  • Iso takes much longer to evaporate fully than it looks

    If you let iso evaporate it isn't doing anything. The purpose of iso or dish soap is to dissolve oils. If you let the iso evaporate the oils will be left behind and settle back on the build plate.

    I use two paper towels. One to wipe with iso, and the other to wipe the iso away.

    If you want a fast dry (iso is 10% water) set the bed temp to 100C for a few seconds.

  • He did a comparison of products ending with a recommendation. That's a review.

    I don't know why you can't accept that.

  • You don't watch all of his videos which is why you have the wrong idea. It's the 2024 video where he reviewed Tru Tone.

    If products are compared in detail and a suggestion to buy is given, it's a review.

    It doesn't matter what you think the channel is supposed to be. What matters is the content.

  • At this point you are nitpicking and being pedantic to attempt to "win" an agurment not being had.

    You wrote 3 paragraphs to avoid admitting that despite my writing about his detergent video, you responded with his dishwasher video because you haven't watched all his content!

    Comparing samples with an independent lab isn't a review? Come on. As I already said just because most of his content is "talking head", doesn't mean he can't recommend products. Which he clearly has done.

  • What microcontroller options do I have?

  • What kind of scavenged screen? Laptops? Because non-laptop small lcds are an undocumented mess. You'd do better to buy screens that work with esp32s.

  • His dish washing video went to great lenghts to explain how something works

    That's a different video. He recently did another video of detergent and why his brand of detergent that he is selling for charity is better than pods.

  • His dish washing detergent video went to great lengths to create experimental comparisons to show his brand of detergent is better than pods. He has done experiments with other products too like dehumidifiers.

  • He is promoting a product. That product possibly has what many perceive as a severe defect (flicker). He could say it doesn't personally bother him but still compare it to other lights in the same way he compared colors in detail. Is the flicker large or small?

    I love his channel and watch every video. But that doesn't mean I have to ignore when he misses a detail.

  • Careful reviewers cover all factors independent of their personal bias.

  • Ok, honestly, is cast-iron really any better than a non-stick, stainless, copper (anything else?) pan?

  • Teflon will eventually flake off even if babied. The problem is thermal stress between the aluminum and Teflon. Repeated heating and cooling will eventually cause it to fail.

  • I meant ignore in the context that he said it doesn't personally bother him.

  • His obsession over color quality while ignoring the flicker is very annoying.

  • They own a lot of their own content now so that's "free". They pay residuals based on streams which is part of licensing. The more streams, the more licensing costs.

  • Enshittification aside, any new technologies you find yourself relying on/using regularly?

  • It is my theory that Netflix is designed to make you browse instead of watch. Streaming costs money. Browsing keeps you engaged with Netflix without costing them real money.
