I am very willing to debate this leading up to and during the primaries, but once those are done I am going to vote against the GOP no matter who is on the ballot.

It still has problems. Mainly you need to get power out there and the heated exhaust water can mess with the ecosystem.

I remember there was talks about a floating data center in the ocean.

I live in Seattle and those girls look like they are about to go to a club and not school to me. Granted in my area if I, as a man, wear a shirt with buttons on it to the office I feel like I am dressing up.

I remember being thrilled with a 20 meg scsi hard drive I got as a kid.

I mean that is already a problem, if you ask a question you have to be ready for the answer to be a mismatch of version conflicts.

But that is ok. ChatGPT is a tool that can either help you or hurt you. I like to think of it like a power hammer. If you are doing a roofing job, it can help you get things done faster compared to a manual hammer, but you still need to know how to build a roof to get started.

ChatGPT is great at helping you organize your thoughts or finding an answer to some error message buried in some log file, but you still need to know what questions to ask and you need to be ready for it to give you a stupid answer and how to get around that.

The option to run one cable to the monitor, or reversely charge your laptop with one docking cable.

Maybe you could use this to daisy chain monitors and power them all.

I understand how the public key encryption works when you are messaging person to person. Does anyone know how it works with group chats?

In Spaceage you can.

I’m not sure what you were trying, but this works for me:

Never use hardware encoding. That is intended for real time transcoding. There are not many settings that work since it is just sending the file to the video card and letting it do its thing.

Slower is better. If you set the software encoder to very slow it will produce an output that is very high quality per megabyte. I generally don’t care if it takes twice as long to encode it as to watch it. I queue it up and let it run over night.

Choose the right codec. I like 10 bit HEVC, because I know it will work on the clients I play it from. When you rip a DVD using MakeMKV, the video will be MPEG-2, it was designed in the 1990’s and converting the file to a modern codec will save a lot of space. I don’t reencode 4K UHD rips much since I don’t want to mess with losing the hdr or other color features that I like in watching those files.

Audio tracks: I will rip out audio for languages I don’t speak, or desctiptive audio track, but go out of my way to label things like director commentaries. I don’t reencode the audio tracks at all, you won’t save much disk space by messing with them compared to the video tracks.

My point is you have to pick SOME server to host your account. You are right that most communities are accessible from most servers, but that is where it becomes confusing for someone who just wants to look at memes for a specific fan base.

That’s what that Star Trek server did.

The problem with that is that you need to make a user on one of those servers. Do you make it on the politics one, or the games one? What happens 3 months later when you realize the server you picked on a whim is full of assholes and gets defederated?

Do you think an average user at that point would move their subscriptions to a new account or will they get annoyed at the concept?

1080p is fine, but I really like the colors of HDR. I am NOT a fan of the higher refresh rate for movies though.

And this picture doesn’t show the more recent models with the mag lock power, hdmi, and sd card reader.

Type c ports are the best. I connect my monitor through one and it has a type ports on it for a wired keyboard and speakers.

They will have to go do 4 more shows up there just to break even.

I hear electric cars all the time, they are not much quieter than an ice car. We don’t need to strap lawn mowers to our cars in the name of safety.

I would assume so. That would balance the people who live across the country from her.

Now we have murderers who just spent the last 1000 years reading philosophy books.

I think my oven/stove can be connected. I have never tried because I don’t see the need to preheat my oven when I am not home.

I shut mine off a while back when I was sure they were advertising stuff based on things we were talking about in the same room. We were discussing moving the chairs out of the office and the next time we went to play music she wanted to sell us new ones.

It might be a total coincidence but screw that.
