16.4 (somewhere between 16 and 17) grams of light-roast, freshly ground coffee in about 280 ml of cold water in a French press (no paper), left to steep overnight in the refrigerator.
In the morning, I add about 200 ml of choco soy milk.
It tastes almost like dark, cold chocolate and, thanks to the soy (as a thickener), has the same mouthfeel.
This should be part of a show called:
Trolling European or actual American?
I know some Americans who would readily call cake "bread". But they know that it's not great and contains too much sugar and/or molasses.
Bread is water, flour and salt; perhaps some oil to keep it moist and maybe fancy stuff like carrots or seeds. But never sugar. There's already sugar hidden everywhere else. No need to add it to a staple food aswell.
Well, there's "Imagine how cool that would be, bro".
And they are kinda right, if you imagine it a fair bit cooler than it would actually be…, bro.
Other than that, you'd have to pretty much disregard anything learned from this. And you'd have to disregard the entire issue of getting rid of heat, powering a power hungry system that's in earths shadow half the time, maintaining a server farm that's constantly 500-1500km away from any technician and also in a vacuum, along with managing a solar flares, 500ms of latency and bits of sand traveling at 10km/s hitting your servers - oh and your boss being on drugs half the time.
Was it? There are children in there. I have a feeling that the extra height may have saved the children in the back seats from being crushed by a truck half the size of the school bus.
Electronics are mostly solid state and are therefore virtually wear-free.
If it’s designed well, they could actually be more reliable than pushing fluids through tubes. But pushing fluids through tubes is already pretty fucking reliable.
I think the main point is to eliminate rusting brake discs from EVs, which rely largely on regenerative braking anyway. I know mine are constantly crusty; like I can always hear them scraping for the first few hundred meters of driving. Which is prolly not great.
I really liked the trend of rating notbooks for MIL-STD-810.
MIL-STD-810 itself does not require equipment manufacturers to actually perform the tests defined in it, nor does it require that anything passes those tests.
I use the T14s G6, running Fedora Silverblue, as my only PC. I bought it mainly for its AMD 880M iGPU, which just hits the performance I need for the few games I still play, as well as its mobility so I can blender on the go (and because I got fed up with the seemingly endless hiccups from my ASUS G14).
It’s good. No issues I know of. The display is a bit slow even for a 60Hz panel, but the battery life is stellar (probably also because of the slow panel).
However, if it’s static, as you say, I'm not sure if a small desktop PC wouldn't be the better choice overall. After all, modern ThinkPads are pretty expensive.
The craziest thing for me is how some people cling to propaganda, even when it doesn't match their lived reality.
A friend of mine still insists that electric cars are [insert any cliché you know], and that they can’t make it up a hill once the battery is even slightly drained.
…
We've been on several road trips in an electric car.
With four dogs in a trailer.
All across Germany and even the Czech Republic.
And we (another friend who owns the electric road-trip car and me with my "city"-car) charge it at home, where we have a solar system and a heat pump.
And yet, every now and then "this can't work". The dissonance is real.
I find the expectation of a 24 hour news cycle terrible. The issue is seemingly not resolved, still relevant and still actionable. And even if something is resolved, sometimes it's still relevant, even just as a retrospective.
The whole "nothing should be older than a day" mentality feels like the news-cycle equivalent to watching subway surfer with jiggling keys while playing cookie clicker in order to listen to a podcast.
My K7 pro liked to reset itself to factory settings (including the tacky/gamery rainbow wave animation) when I plugged it into my firewall and sometimes for no reason at all.
I'm using a Cherry ULP Mini now. It has a lot less features, which I like. Also it got the best switches I've ever had. Wish more keyboards used them.
YSK: Cellulose can be made extremely durable and water resistent. The wallet I've been using for a decade now is made of cellulose. The stitching was kinda bad from the start, so I’ve had to repair it once. But the material itself is still holding stong. And it feels nice and is very grippy.
This just reminded me of a classmate from my teens who once said, in all seriousness, "Hitler didn’t just do bad things".
And I replied, "Uh, yeah". And in my mind, searching for something good he did, went like 'he built the Autobahn' immediately followed up with 'well, that didn’t turn out to be the best idea either', and by then the moment had kinda passed, and I couldn’t casually say "Well, actually […]".
Would you concede that there is a difference between an hobbyist making minor adjustments to a image and a multibillion-dollar company that's promoting a solution that effectively replaces the entire image with a new a one and that creating a ecosystem depentend on such a solution may go the same way PhysX did?

I don't like the taste of coffee.
