If they develop processors that hit the claimed frequency or a higher under the same TDP, then that means that that same processor can do more work with less energy.

Even processors today that can hit five gigahertz or more with overclocking do not constantly run at max tdp.

I don’t think people who haven’t experienced it really can understand.

It’s like something crazy happens.

People without complex PTSD freak out.

My ass is like, “oh, I was preparing for this” and then I deal with the issue.

I’m always right on the edge of losing my goddamn mind, so that when some crazy shit actually happens, I’m like, oh, okay. Ah, yes, this is what I was preparing for. Ah, feels so good to finally let the vigilance down and just actually experience life for a second.

I swear to god if you fuck that cat

Sounds like you need to buy either a new Switch or a new actuator, and both should be available for most cars for under $100, And installing them is typically something done with a screwdriver and possibly a 10 or 13 millimeter wrench.

I think gadgets and gizmos are in the same general category, but gadgets tend to be more mechanically operated and gizmos tend to be more electrically operated.

Like a wrist-mounted crossbow would be a gadget, whereas a wrist-mounted laser would be a gizmo.

I was about to say, like, the coloring of the shirt made it look like she was wearing a bra, which made the messaging about going braless kind of seem… stupid?

Sorry, my brain is going so fast that my sensory motor cortex has to shift gears, otherwise I’ll burn out my clutch, Blow out my tires, wreck my transmission, crash into the wall, burst into flames, and take a family of four with me on the way out.

I don’t see fat sack of shit anywhere, so this clearly isn’t all men

Honestly, even though it’s already a masterpiece, it would not hurt my feelings to see a reboot of Chobits.

Give me two new seasons with new art, maybe explore some more of the storyline or something.

Failing a reboot where they redo it with modern art techniques and everything, maybe there could be a parallel line, or pick up where it left off and give us one additional glorious season of Chi taking her rightful place as the persocom empress of the world or something.

It kind of looks like the clitoris is holding back the rest of the anatomy to protect it from an intruder

Don’t let the downvotes get to you.

A lot of people are really angry and scared, and they’ll take that anger out on anyone that gives them a convenient lightning rod.

I also read the article. I know you’re telling the truth. They treated the man fairly. It was just… It’s something for news to yell and scream about to rile everyone up and make people more and more afraid.

Keep telling the truth and sharing the truth when you see it.

It will help some of the tension de-escalate.

Meh. There is always an attribute of selling out when it comes to popular music and that includes rebel country music from the sixties and seventies.

I’m not holding it against them. I’m just saying that even if one of the four horsemen are your country music idols, that doesn’t mean that it’s okay to delude yourself into thinking that they were not mainstream products meant for mass consumption.

If it were more profitable to take the same stance then as it is today, then that is the stance they would have taken or else you would have never heard of them.

For Nuance’s sake, it is important to note that not everybody makes every decision with perfect rationality and clarity, nor is everyone always completely and totally aware of the intentions of others that surround them.

Obviously, requesting that someone abandon their friends for the sake of a relationship is a piss take, but communication and building trust in the relationship can solve that.

The correct answer here is not that the relationship end because of the guys insecurity, but rather that both sides work on addressing his fundamental insecurity in the relationship and both sides keep all of their friends.

If the guy chooses not to work on his insecurity and double down on it, then you can justify ending the relationship because of this. But you should at least give it the college try first, right?

Hey, there’s nothing weird about my collections of vinyl records and German beer steins and uranium glass and sterling silver and quack medical devices and watches and books and pewter and brass and guitars and cameras.

I honestly started off with the intent of being funny, and then I realized how many fucking collections I have, and now I don’t really know what to do with myself.

TIL I’m a pathfimder 2d succubus

The rule of grave of the fireflies is that everybody has to watch it, and then everyone has to recommend it to other people, but never watch it again.

I am IT staff and I’ve worked for government in the past.

No matter how easy you make the swap over, no matter how much money it offers to save, there’s gonna be somebody who has sign off level executive authority who will refuse to change anything, because it means changing something, and they won’t like it.

Making a company-wide transition from Microsoft to a free version that does exactly the same is not a simple change.

If you make the change, you’re going to see a huge upswing in the number of support calls. You’re going to see a huge upswing in the number of complaints. You’re going to see downturns in efficiency and productivity as people make the changes, not to mention the fact that administering libreoffice from an organizational standpoint is a completely different beast from administering office.

I’m not saying that it can’t be done, by any stretch of the imagination.

I’m saying that the human element is the largest factor in whether or not it would be done, and unless you are already the city administrator or a big to-do inside of the fish pond you find yourself in, you likely do not have the human capital needed to make the transition, regardless of every other benefit.

If you want to get this done, I would suggest preemptively installing libre office on every single computer in the entire organization and then slowly telling people to use it as the opportunity arises so that three to five years from now there will be enough people who have used it that the transition would not be a huge ordeal.

Short of that you need to have an executive mandate from on high come in and say, we are not using Microsoft Office anymore, we will use LibreOffice, here are your training hours, go.

Pretty sure that the idea is not limited to Christians.

I went to a Christian school and it was staffed by parents who wanted to save money on the costs of sending their kids to Christian school.

The sheer volume of could not give a fuck was immeasurable as long as it didn’t affect them personally.

I would expect them to act like Christians, or at the very least, not do things that will get them sued.

There’s nowhere in a school charter that says, oh, I’m sorry you like boys. I know you’ve completed all of your compulsory education, but because of your activities outside of the school that have nothing to do with the school itself, you have to start over from kindergarten.
