Say ‘Climate Crisis’

Agreed, especially for gaming PC. On laptops and generic PC I think there could be a bigger swing, but also you’d need a USB port capable of pushing 30w which is not a standard feature by any means in a PC/laptop.

Counter point. Most computer power supplies have a curve to their charging efficiency (somewhere north of 50% load). If your PC is substantially below the peak of that curve, then adding load (the phone) could raise the PSU’s efficiency say from 80 to 85% (I’m making up numbers) which would affect the overall efficiency of the entire PC’s load.

I think your answer is still probably correct, but it’s an interesting nuance to think about.

Side notes: Some PSU’s use gallium, e.g., Corsair ax1600i, though by and large most do not. Also if your in the EU then your working with 220/240v PSU’s which adds more efficiency, but that would apply to the phone charger as well.

JimmyBigSausage@lemm.ee is at least partly right, it’s an Ethan Allen table from the 80’s. Link to below shows what it looks like with all it’s parts. This website also lists it as pine.

The internet wasn’t really a thing back then so it’s unlikely we’ll find much more unless there is a digitized catalog posted somewhere.

They also consume more power than single door fridges due to additional seals and breaks in insulation.

In oatmilk the sugar and oil are optional ingredients for taste and texture. Almost all oatmilk brands contain salt for taste.

I’ve only found one brand that uses three ingredients, oat water salt. They charge a premium for it, but it’s the best tasting one I’ve found.

I’m sure there are some electronics or materials there that you wouldn’t want in a bathtub with you, but I agree with your point. This is literally a drop in the ocean compared to the mass amounts of other pollution sources. Honestly, the diesel the retrieval boats would need to burn to retrieve the debris is probably worse for the environment.

The dye is derived from coal tar. Granted that is not its final form, but I can see where the crunchy moms you describe have some reservations. I can understand the preference for a dye that is derived from a source that is not a known carcinogen to rule out any ambiguity in the refinement process.

So where’s the photo of this rust?

I just don’t want to get sick. I get sick from catching other peoples airborne illnesses in public. I wear a mask in public to reduce that risk. It’s not that complicated.

Fwiw my childhood indoor/outdoor cat lived to 19 whereas my indoor only cats got terminal cancer at 13. But generally speaking I believe you are correct.

Thanks Obama

Looks good. Thanks for sharing!

So…can we see the resulting loaf? Cool data. Should jab the probe into the center when it’s done baking and leave it there while it’s cooling down on the counter.

As a Model 3 owner of 5 years, it’s really a non issue, in my opinion. All the basic controls you need while in motion are on the steering wheel. The touchscreen is responsive and intuitive.

Just understand if you want to get places in IT your going to have to climb the ladder, keep sharp on technologies, and make connections. It’s doable, but it takes effort. After a decade of cutting your teeth, your schooling should be largely irrelevant on your resume. This is my career path and I keep pace with my colleagues who all have degrees.

My biggest issue with version v11: On highways it preemptively merges into the passing lane because it is approaching an on ramp with no one on it. This happens even with “minimal lane changes” turned on. This is annoying because quite frequently it has just merged into a line of cars approaching at a much higher speed trying to pass. Then I look like an ass because I’ve got no one in front of me and no reason to be merging into a passing lane.

I interrupt it when it happens, but it doesn’t give you any warning. Blinker goes and it’s merging immediately. Not a good behavior when there are zero vehicles entering it’s space. Driver wouldn’t expect the merge so it’s always a bit of an abrupt intervention. I’m extra cautious on this current build around on ramps. Looking forward to the next release, but they’ve certainly slowed down their releases. Been waiting to get off this build for awhile now.

There’s a lot of disinformation on EV’s. I drove an ICE until 2018 when I felt EV technology, longevity, and charging infrastructure was ready, I got a model 3. This was still on the early adoption side and my circle of people expected the car to self combust. Even to this day people I am still educating people in my circle. You’d think 4 years of driving and 50k miles might change opinions, but I still get asked how much does the battery cost to replace. Which is the equivalent of an engine seizing in an ICE. It’s not going to happen except in rare instances. Realistically the battery will last the life of the car for me. Maybe it will finally click for people when I’ve been driving it for 10, 15 years. I think for others gas prices will need to squeeze their wallet before reality sets in. I support this bill, even if its grasping at straws, it’s a step in the right direction. But a lot of consumer education needs to happen between now and then.

TLDR: The majority of Americans are still skeptical about EV reliability and believe they cost more than equivalent hybrids, etc

It’s called the cyberwiper :D
