There’s still good movies coming out these days, just far fewer of them. Steer clear of the blockbusters and the really low effort slop and there’s still a few mid-budget original movies made every year generally.

Only with the correct iOS version though.

Back when people made a big deal about iPhone planned obsolescence, they were actually easier to repair than most competitors. Nowadays it’s about the same.

Birch. Coniferous trees are north-south, deciduous trees east-west.

You could eliminate a bunch of systemic issues with a trillion dollars that would amount to essentially ending many of the effects of poverty for most people in poverty I would think.

Things like food insecurity, shelter, etc.

You’re right that just spending a trillion dollars as a one off grant to everyone in poverty wouldn’t do much, though. It’d need to be used strategically.

Likely still occurs. Nowadays the equipment is different but most of the communications on the east coast go through thar building I believe?

Oh ffs is nobody normal? Why does every actor have to be a sex pest?

I actually really liked his character.

It’s the sudden stop that gets ya

If you don’t like the offerings, here’s how to make your own

Isn’t canola or rapeseed essentially the same oil? I mean not all rapeseed oil is canola, but most food-grade rapeseed oil is canola I think? As canola refers to a particular cultivar of rape that is better for human consumption.

Just nitpicking/wondering.

Anyway, do you have suggestions on how to clean it after use and also when do I need to re-season it?¹

I got my first ever cast iron pan as a birthday present and I’ve been scared of it so far, haven’t seasoned it yet, because the instructions vary quite a bit in different places and honestly I haven’t had a lot of time either. But I hear cast iron pans are the best for making a good steak or burger indoors². And apparently great for frying other things too, just not great for simmering sauces for several hours because sometimes sauces are acidic because tomato?

¹ I know, I know, I can just google or chatgpt or local-deepseek it. But I like talking to strangers online, and I like getting people to share their advice, particularly on the fediverse so that maybe it’ll show up on someone’s search results a decade from now on a non-commercial search-engine that favors non-commercial websites. One can only hope.

² I’m a grill guy, but in Estonia the weather between the beautiful -20C and snow and the beautiful 20C and sunshine, is disgustingly wet, smoggy³ overcast where you not only don’t want to be outside, you don’t even want to live in the country anymore. And there’s max 6 hours of daylight. If you can see the light behind the clouds. It’s fine grilling in the spring, summer and proper winter when it’s frozen over and snowy. But much of autumn and winter, I don’t want to even step out of the house when I have to, let alone voluntarily.

³ Outside of soviet-built commie blocks districts or new developments, a lot of houses are older and have wood furnaces. It’s being reduced slowly through grants for people who convert their heating systems to less smoky ones (newer furnace, chimney reconstruction, heat pumps, or joining a remote central heating network), but that takes time, many many more millions of euros than are currently being pumped into it by the government, and it doesn’t stop my neighbour from burning construction leftovers in his sauna furnace that’s entirely separate from his house. He owns a construction company and us Estonians love our wood-burning saunas over the newer electric ones.

Okay so AFAIK this concerns when US companied have foreign subsidiaries. What if foreign companies have US subsidiaries? Can the parent company’s data stored outside the US be required from the US subsidiary?

No I’m pretty sure money was the original reason. AWS was the first big cloud player and it quickly became the most profitable part of Amazon.

Now Microsoft already had more money than they know how to use, they may indeed have been looking for control first and foremost. But the idea of cloud in general was about exploiting economies of scale to make more money

Done 200 in an Audi 80 from 1992 and only stopped there because it got scary in that light old car lol

The Germans also specifically make cars to cruise at high speeds so 240 is safe as far as the car itself is concerned in compact executive class and above, for anything made this century.

Yeah I’m not sure I can source any C11H26…yaknow.

I’m also not sure I’d want to. That stuff is naaaasty

Waterboarding at Guantanamo bay sounds fun if you have no idea what either of those things are

Waymo/Google has aligned itself with Trump and there are a lot of cameras on those cars. I suspect that was a reason back then. Now there’s more.

Almost makes me wish I was gay. Getting some strange would be easier at least lol

Assuming that you don’t need the absolute tightest timings and highest speed, you can get 192 GB from Corsair for “just” 660 euros where I live, pretty far still from 2000 euros. The speed and timings are the same as the 1300 euro kit, also from Corsair, it’s just that the cheaper kit has no RGB.

So at 2k EUR I’m assuming it’s going to be either more than 192 GB (in which case, is that even a desktop motherboard or are we talking about servers?) or some super high speed RAM.

They’ll also have an electrical outage the millisecond demand starts to go down, so they’ll have to sell the old stock at inflated prices first before restarting production, oopsie-woopsie
