In my opinion, IRC is much easier to join than any meta slop, generally speaking you can just /connect check the /list and /join a popular room.
Meanwhile to join meta you need to first make an email, then create an account, fill a bunch of forms (and then I always get automatically banned after acc creation without posting anything lol)
I can't think of many things you can buy for a dollar, maybe a bottle of water and 2 pieces of bread.
Chewing gum maybe, back in the days those were cheap, doubt that's still the case.
Photocopies, those are cheap, you can get like 7 copies with 1 dollar.
Can't think of anything else, really.
Also earning more? That's not possible, unless you're willing to beg, but then that's completely unrelated to your initial dollar.
That's nice, now I only need 200k so I can buy a house with a backyard so I can make my own groceries.
Anime is very poorly mixed, a phone vibrates as loud as an explosion, there's no dynamics. That's not how real sound is supposed do work.
I agree that some shows like modern Star Trek exaggerate and while I can't hear Michael murmuring the Spore Drive almost blows my woofers away every time Discovery jumps.
However needs needs to have dynamics so the viewer can have an emercive experience.
They should release dual audio, high dynamic range for ppl with good systems and low dynamics for ppl listening on computer speakers, but if that's not the case I can always put a compressor on an HDR master, but can't recover lost information on stuff like anime where a phone vibrates as loud as an explosion.
OMG! I've been looking for something like this for quite some time!
I will try this as soon as I have time. Thank you!
I don't think they are as stupid as you think them.
I mean, back when I was younger I learned pretty much all I know about IT by admining my own computer, and I pretty much did it by trial and error yes. However nowadays kids talk to each other over popular chat applications, eventually one tells another "hey just install this browser/vpn" the same way they install mods for their videogames.
Tho in the end I don't think they will become techy savy tho, I guess just that tor and VPNs will become commonplace in UK.
Meanwhile the old boomers are the ones who are going to forced to shrug "just how it is".
Because US news are the funniest and the most absurd.
Idk what year that pic was taken, but 2GB of ram is useless no matter what operating system you put on it.
Except ofc for a home nas, but as a desktop, the user is going to open Firefox, try to open a website, it will take minutes to load and the user just wasted $20
True, didn't think of that.
I guess a much lower voltage of let's say 200 volts would kill a device just as effectively and probably wouldn't arc itself.
Another option would be a smart device that first senses some current and only then dumps the 20kV.
USB-C has a lot of pins, some custom built cable could use nonstandard pins for power and data and the standard data ones for the 20kV line.
Or just run the 20kV line on the data pins and leave power standard. That way you can use a power-only cable to charge the phone.
