Which did you get? I think I can see a gas truck if I ever actually had need for it, but like you said it’s hard to know where the infrastructure will be in a decade, but if the rate of people leaving EVs is low this type of stuff is going to be pretty locked in moving forward.

I wonder what the recidivism rate (for lack of a better term) is for EV drivers? I don’t think ill ever buy another pure ICE vehicle ever again

This sounds like an excellent sign for MH wilds on PC

I do have a 64gb m1 MacBook Pro and man that thing screams at doing LLM AI. I use it to serve models locally throughout my house, while it otherwise still works as a fantastic computer (usually using about half the ram for llm usage). I still prefer a 4080 for image generation though.

not you, the person you were commenting about.

“I do my own research” is a short walk away from “I trust only my own sources”

So am I allowed to say how the consideration of how an EV would have fit in with your 50 mile commute is irrelevant to the discussion since we are apparently only focused on the 3 minute gas break you currently enjoy?

The type of place where people describe themselves as spiritual but not religious.

The discussion is about the ownership experience. You clearly don’t own an ev but have lots of thoughts about how inconvenient it would be to stop an extra 15 minutes a few times a year. You’ve gotta balance that against the massive benefits an ev provides, one of which is a massively lower cost of ownership vs the n times a year you find yourself road tripping, which for most people isn’t really that often

OK well in this mode you’d spend 17 more minutes and save thousands of dollars in fuel costs?

Yeah taken as a guideline and observation that computer speeds/storage/etc continue to improve, I think it’s fair. It may not always be double, but it is still significantly different than other physical processes which have “stagnated” by a similar metric (like top speed on an average vehicle or miles per gallon).

As long as they keep shoving more stories somewhere in between some otherwise inconsequential aspect of the original trilogy it will just keep grinding to nothing. They’ll make an entire movie following the production of an intergalactic cheese pizza so you can understand why the lieutenant commander in the background shot of a scene in episode 4 farted. Tell some fucking new stories already.

Seriously the ”it” is just two stories up on my feed. I just showed all this to my partner in reverse like Memento.

What, and live with negativity at the heart of every atom?

Yeah it felt like the Bible and the white/yellow pages used the thinnest paper I’d ever seen

gosh who would want an uncommon character that obviously most average people aren’t thinking about in their passwords, that sounds like it might even be somewhat secure.

I see. I have some old computers kicking around, I actually just deployed a windows media server, but that could easily be a Linux server and probably should be. That system I could easily boot only Linux so that appeals.

The issue with my main PC is that it has multiple terabytes of windows -related stuff. I get how I could read the old drives but there are terabytes of games that I’d have to reinstall to do that on that computer (compatibility issues aside) it sounds like

I could do that, but how does Linux see/interact with my Windows stuff? Am I double-installing games to run-as-Windows with something like Proton? (like a Linux install and a Windows install on the old drive?)

Oh I thought the sign was going to say “we have to sacrifice everything we believe in for the incredibly narrow issues going on in a single state because of the Electoral College, that’s how democracy works you dumbfuck” but my eyes are getting bad

What did you do with your file system? I haven’t tried to dual boot Linux yet but I think bothering with partitioning and file systems is keeping me from taking the plunge.

(BTW it reminds me of why I didn’t go to law school, I hated filling out the paperwork for even doing the LSAT and realized the whole job is that. Dealing with partitioning and file systems and shit seems miserable and it’s just the start.)
