Amateurs! They should've charged $4000 and handed you some terrible "medical food" on the way out.

You're supposed to use a lighter

It's like everything else conservatives think they want: "We want illegal immigrants out of the country! But we're not willing to fund more immigration courts/judges. Let those court cases back up forever so they can stay here indefinitely! Oh wait..."

Conservative: "Tesla chose Texas for their new whatever, yeeeee fuckin' haw yo! That's a lot of money that will come into the state!"

Bystander: "But don't they have to settle that case with the EPA before they can proceed? I mean, they totally fucked that river and will have to pay for cleanup." (note: this is hypothetical river fucking)

Conservative (and Libertarians, oddly): "Yeah yeah whatever. That's why we have the courts!"

Bystander: "Except that court case won't be heard for years because the courts are backed up. Apparently there's not enough money in the Federal budget this year to pay for more judges, courthouses, and lawyers to handle cases like that"

Conservative: "Then they need to increase taxes! Oh wait..."

Congratulations conservatives! With this ruling, you just drastically increased the size of the Federal government.

Simple administrative rulings are gone so now we're going to end up with five zillion more expensive lawyers, a lot more judges, and a gazillion more cases before the courts.

It'll also increase the cost of doing business! Because now instead of just having to occasionally deal with an administrative body full of technical people who know what matters and what doesn't every company is now going to have to hire teams of lawyers to defend themselves in court and explain every little thing to a jury of total laymen.

The companies that violate the law regularly with the intent to "just pay the fines" will now have to defend themselves in court over and over and over again. You think immigration courts are overloaded? Now every federal court will be!

Perhaps they thought this would just result in businesses no longer having to comply with regulations? Hell no. Next year's Federal budget is going to balloon in order to pay for all these new inefficiencies.

They are insane.

Of course, this is conservatives modus operandi: Don't bother looking at real outcomes and real consequences of their actions! Instead, look towards tradition and religion and only that which is right in front of their face.

This achievement belongs to the tail end of GENX... The folks that brought us grunge.

Nvidia cards are so much faster than AMD for Stable Diffusion it's ridiculous.

That and Turbo like that other person said 👍

Thanks to the genius of Large Language Models it's much more likely that they'll say something like, "PUT GLUE ON YOUR PIZZA."

To be fair, is as "new" as what the major record labels put out!

To be fair, that's a very open ended question. I mean, what kind of bolt are we talking about? A standard lag bolt? If so you don't tighten it! That'd be a trick question! You tighten the nut. Same thing applies with car wheel bolts. Tricky tricky!

Is it a hex bolt that also has a cross head? How tight are we talking?

I'm just going to assume bolts of lightning and Usain Bolt are off the table.

Depends on your definition of "wheel". For example, any ancient perfectly round pottery was made using a pottery wheel (primitive or not). Otherwise, how would you do it?

That's how we know the ancient Sumerians were using pottery wheels as early as 3250 BCE (because we found perfectly round pottery that's that old):

The base assumption is that you can tell anything reliable at all about a person from their body language, speech patterns, or appearance. So many people think they have an intuition for such things but pretty much every study of such things comes to the same conclusion: You can't.

The reason why it doesn't work is because the world is full of a diverse set of cultures, genetics, and subtle medical conditions. You may be able to attain something like 60% accuracy for certain personality traits from an interview if the person being interviewed was born and raised in the same type of environment/culture (and is the same sex) as you. Anything else is pretty much a guarantee that you're going to get it wrong.

That's why you should only ask interviewees empirical questions that can identify whether or not they have the requisite knowledge to do the job. For example, if you're hiring an electrical engineer ask them how they would lay out a circuit board. Or if hiring a sales person ask them questions about how they would try to sell your specific product. Or if you're hiring a union-busting expert person ask them how they sleep at night.

The article is way, waaaaaaay off. My PC generates images at a rate of about one per second (SDXL Turbo) with an Nvidia 4060 Ti which uses 160W (~12W when idle). Let's assume I have it generate images constantly for one hour:

• 3,600 images per 0.16kWh
• About 22,500 images per hour.

In other words, generating a single image is a trivial amount of power.
