One of the pirate party guys made a Raspberry pi doohickey that did exactly that to show how stupid these calculations are. It constantly downloaded to a null device, or moved it to a null device once compete so the file never existed except incredibly briefly. I think it also tracked how many times it was downloaded so the “cost” could be calculated.

I mean, you don’t need to at this point, all those incompatible with Windows 11 computers. So hard not to just buy another for $50

Well, our stomachs are not at full acid all the time, only when we eat. I imagine it’s pretty similar.

It did back in the windows 95 through XP days. I 'member when Windows would bog the fuck down if it was too fragmented. I’m pretty sure it was fat32 that was the problem.

I was only in JROTC 20+ years ago and I’m pretty sure I can march in step.

You’re comparing a laptop at idle to the power supply for a pi that needs to power it at full load plus overhead and inefficiencies. That’s like comparing apples to an orange tree.

Pretty sure they meant the package, proper bubble wrapping would handle the abuse. That’s on the person boxing it all up.

FedEx lost a $500k case of equipment for the service techs who maintain the instruments we use at work. They work nationwide and have two of these cases for the entire country, they keep thousands of labs running. FedEx just… lost it. Eventually it was found a few weeks later or something. The cost is not really a big deal, it is basically just instrument components they use to verify the running components, but they’re the components that all instruments are compared to, so they can’t just put together another case as it suits them. There’s extra testing that goes in to make sure these components are exactly to spec.

Neither have I in America.

I’m ok with the 35 year old limit, I do think someone needs a good amount of life experience before leading a country. I also support limiting it at a max of 65 years.

Old enough to see some shit, young enough that your decisions affect your own life

Ackshually, the plane is the matter jar. It’s just super uncomfortable for the passengers if the pilot doesn’t get the maneuver just right in the air, so they land and do it there instead. Sometimes they’ll fly along the equator and do it slowly if they’re going across the Pacific, e.g. USA -> Australia, instead of USA -> Chile
