That seems pretty arbitrary

0-2 would indicate negative, 0 being extremely bad and life changing and 2 pretty bad (worse than broken bones)

3 which should be neutral is broken bones

4-6 indicates success, but 4 seems to be just barely passing (e.g. landing it but with a fumble and falling) which doesnt seem to balance out a broken bone for 3 or something worse at 2

There are 100,000+ wasp species, and many usually dont sting or target specific species / bugs, or are solitary

If old democratic leadership can be cast off then it would be better to stay with the party to keep support of people who just vote democrat every time or dont pay attention to the news. It would also help avoid a split between the new party and democratic votes that might increase the chances of a gop win next time around (if there is one)

Otherwise it would be better to start a new party / coalition free of the current leadership

More clarification: this is more about clock speed. Having a fixed clock frequency is important for making sure that everything functions correctly. Transistors take a certain amount of time to turn on and off, which for the most part is a fixed time duration. This can change with temperature, voltage, and design.

Trying to run the clock too fast may mean that parts of the device havent fully turned on or off, or signals havent fully propagated through for parts that chain transistors together.

Some devices will have better transistor or worse transistors due to variations between batches and there can be some variation within a single part.

The clock is therefore set to be in a range that gives the highest performance possible while also ensuring stability (some overhead to allow temp, power, noise and variation to not cause instability).

The clocks in this case are running 0.57% faster which is negligible, and likely well within the margin of error, though this upward drift is a natural consequence of the aging of the components (specifically the quartz resonator that sets the frequency).

Modern processors do the same thing as these processors, though they also allow variable clock speeds. This allows turning down the clock speed most of the time to save power when not much is going on. This also means there is also some minor overhead available on many cpus.

This is where “overclocking” comes from. Turning up the clock speed until the device becomes unstable, adjusting the voltages, temperatures, power, noise, etc. to get more performance out of the same part.

Adjusting just the clock doesnt account for the fixed timing of the transistors (thus changing voltages, temps), and theres less overhead on modern processors, so its more of a mixed bag of results. Additionally, the CPU itself can degrade over time, and this shrinks the overhead. For the either old or modern cpus, it may have had 10% of headroom, which would shrink over time due to cpu degredation to lets say 5%, so a 0.6% increase due to resonator degredation is negligible.

Overclocking is also possible on older consoles, though with differing levels of success. These older consoles were designed with a fixed frequency, and as a result many games are not designed to account for differing framerates. This means running the game faster doesnt just mean a higher fps/smoother gameplay, but you may literally move twice as fast if the game runs twice as fast.

That is the opposite of what the we should have learned from what happened with the Nazis and what Milgram experiment warned us of. Its the reason there’s memes about “just following orders.” If pressured, most people will just listen to what theyre told even if it means knowingly hurting someone.

Passive acceptance is part of the reason Nazis were able to take over while not being the majority in Germany.

Not a backdoor, just undocumented commands on the hci. You would already need access to the device from the microcontroller side to leverage them. Also it’s not uncommon for older devices like this to have undocumented commands

Tldr on the problem is that small differences in resistance between conductors and contacts in the cables can result in different currents in each wire. Previous cards would split pairs of pins up and have each of them current balanced (same current drawn in through each). The 40/50 series shorted all of the pins together, which doesnt allow for any current balancing on the GPU side.

Additionally, previous cards would refuse to turn on if any of those shorted pairs were not present - something the new cards can hardly detect. This could allow all but one high side wire to be cut and the GPU might not realize and try to draw all 50+A through a single conductor which is rated for <10A

The 9070xt that Steve at gamersnexus looked at which had the 12vhpwr connector also had this flawed design, but the power on the 9070xt is much much lower, so you are less likely to see a problem on those cards.

Make sure not to bag and toss all the leaves in the fall - leave a bunch in a pile in the corner of your yard. Thats where they like to stay at night

Ok Lemur

Banks send bills which are damaged or defaced back to the treasury to be destroyed and get an equal amount of new bills in return. They distribute the new bills. While any individual bill could be traced back to the original bank you got it from, non sequential bills implies they were gathered from various places and have been in circulation long enough that any given bill will have exchanged many hands and thus would be unlikely to be traceable. If you go to a bank and withdraw a bunch of bills, you might receive sequential bills. Showing up to deposit sequential bills which were withdrawn by a single person is solid evidence of you interacting with that person. If they get caught with drugs and their accounts investigated, they might see that they withdrew a bunch of bills that were then deposited by you and come after you

Maybe they could spend that $6 million they give the CEO on a lawyer

“26 replies” but I cant see any of them because I have those kinds of idiots blocked

Brad Lander is a good candidate

If you do a 5 bit encoding (0-31) that’s enough for the alphabet and numbers can overlap with letters like in braille, plus spaces. Thats around 1638 characters. Standard ascii is technically 7 bits and that would compress to 1170 characters without the initial 0

1. w_s = 2 * pi * f_s

2. since you need to sample at 2x or more the highest desired frequency to get proper reproduction, it should be w>(1/2)w_s

w > (1/2) w_s
w > (1/2) 2 pi f_s
w > pi f_s

Dogs cant differentiate red and green because they only have two types of color receptors (cones). Theyd percieve it similar to someone who is red-green colorblind.

Not owning a branch of government has never stopped republicans. They would rather get dragged out kicking and screaming. Democratic politicians have largely abandoned their voting base and claim their hands are tied and there’s nothing they can do, because they are too used to being able to just skate on through without much experience fighting from a disadvantage.

They can do things like organizing their voter base to fight back in constructive ways and pass local legislation, unify the party on voting for certain politicians, inform their voters about special elections, bills and places they can help out, push a more populist and or progressive agenda, and stop fucking abandoning and lying to their own voter base. They need to be willing to physically lead their constituents

Republicans are so cohesively brainwashed because the republicans have been targeting media and disinformation for decades. They organize extremely well at the local level, and are willing to do almost anything for power.

The democrats need to show equal fervor for defending democracy and they’ve just been cowards so far, telling people to just vote and tell their family to vote democrats, essentially telling us, “we cant do anything so its your problem and responsibility now”

ETA: democrats had 4 years to plan and time to come up with a response to Project 2025. Its weird to me everyone just took “oh its not trumps plan” at face value.

Relative of the piss drawer

Not to disagree that they probably don’t want to spend money on helping them, but it also may be too late

A lot of beachings started happening around the time that we started using sonar for detecting other ships and submarines. 50 years ago implies during the cold war. The loud sounds can rupture their eardrums or confuse them enough that they beach themselves repeatedly. Also it’s a possibility that the cause for the initial beaching hasn’t disappeared. Additionally they may only have the physical resources available to save a handful if any

Because they consider Israel to be a “legitimate” state while Palestinians are considered terrorists regardless of of they are Hamas or civilians. That means they call them detainees / POWs while captured israelis get called hostages. Very skewed language
