  • That's what I've been saying all the time when my brother says monopoly sucks when you don't win. It's literally designed to make you suffer

  • Now I wanna start a BanCarbon movement similar to "Ban Dihydrogen Monoxide"

  • But did all the objects on earth also lose their momentum? Otherwise they would be already made into paste before the waves

  • Just like drug addicts, these people are addicted to dopamine and they will do anything to get it even if it makes everyone else uncomfortable

    I think TikTok format video players are straight up drugs. It's a real physical addiction which even has withdrawal symptoms

    They are so appealing, I do avoid them but it's just sad to watch everyone else become a victim of those

  • Yeah that sucks. Mine has 128 GB internal and I added a 128 GB SD to store my music and (temporarily) store my movies which are normally stored in a HDD

    I like the freedom of streaming anywhere without buffering while not worrying about mobile data quotas

  • But what if they had a organelle which generated helium and made them slowly float

  • I do have a jellyfin server but I just store my FLACs on my phone. They weigh a total of 15 GBs anyways which is pretty much nothing

  • I don't use deezer but I rip flacs from there

  • I love big phones though. Smaller ones feel too claustrophobic to me

    Also, from a usabity point of view, bigger screens are better for watching videos in landscape, editing text and it's easier to use the gestures and the keyboard (I don't even have fat fingers). I think only downside is ring and pinky fingers hurting after a while because of the weight

  • I mean if you are a pretentious asshole worried about stinky users stealing your precious content...

  • ChatGPT keeps mixing up software versions which is understandable considering the similarities between versions and the way gen AI works

    I asked for help on GTK 4 once and responses were a mix of GTK 4 and 3 code. Some of them even contained function names which didn't exist in any version of GTK

  • This seems like a stupid idea at first but it's actually amazing. They mix high resistance metals into the bricks so the bricks can conduct electricity and heat up while doing that. And then they blow air through the holes on the bricks to extract the heat whem needed. It leaks about 3% of the stored energy per day which is absolutely nothing considering it's cost

    I'm gonna drop these papers here. First one is more of a brief intro and the second one discusses practicality and logistics of such systems

  • Rpeak values are calculated using the advertised clock rate of the CPU. For the efficiency of the systems you should take into account the Turbo CPU clock rate where it applies

    I'm gonna speculate, but I don't think these systems can run all cpu cores on turbo due to power and thermal limitations and because that wouldn't be good cost/processing power wise (since you need excessive cooling to do that). Rather, they fire turbo on groups of CPUs, allowing the CPUs to cool down till the sequence wraps around

    So, I think rPeak is the processing power achieved when the computer is turboing a large chunk of CPUs

    Sorry for my messy writing, I'm a little tired

  • Not a single party on the face of the earth is gonna switch to an alternative voting system. Democracy devolving into 2 parties is a problem in nearly every country and unfortunately the ones who can make the change are the ones who benefit from first pass the post voting

    No "democratic" party is gonna switch to STAR or a similar voting system unless the citizens start being very loud.

    On other hand, radicalizing people to support alternative voting is also very hard, because it is hard to explain and hard to understand for majority of people and its often viewed as if the supporter is trying to benefit from the said change and trying to sabotage democracy, when in reality, they are the ones who want real democracy

  • I made a 100GB alt account and uploaded 25GB of files through an encrypted mount. We'll see what happens when I cancel it tomorrow

  • Yup I know I am the product. That's why we are encrypting everything with AES256 before upload using rclone's crypt remote

    I just don't trust any cloud provider tbh. Performance hit from AES256 is very insignificant and it provides solid privacy regardless of provider. Might as well get the cheap one

    Possibility of Google keeping API access up after cancellation is why I asked this question. To learn what happens when to rclone Google drive mount after an expiration

  • Well, my VPS is used mainly by my friends for Minecraft servers, collaboration, file sharing, streaming and pretty much everything cloud related

    Most of them live in Istanbul and my VPS provider is one of the most reliable and affordable providers located in Istanbul.

    Unfortunately, Hertzner doesn't work for me because their prices are astronomical for me compared to Google's regional pricing for Turkey (40TL/mo = 1.1USD/mo for 2TB)

    I just wanna exploit the service as much as possible since I just don't rely on them. Electricity prices are too high for homelab but maybe I could set up a solar powered server if I save a little (I'm a student, I don't have much money, but I like the hobby)

    I'll probably try accessing cancelled drive account with rclone and find out if it's possible
