I just got GPU temp monitoring working on my old dell laptop. "Heat management" for the GPU is pretty much just an extra chunk of steel tacked onto the heat pipe halfway between the CPU and its radiator, so GPU temps are always in the red.

I might as well just turn off monitoring and remain ignorant 🤷

It's a 1/4 wave antenna with a groundplane. Physics dictates the size.

Compared to the PCB antenna in your average USB dongle, this would have at least two to three times the range, and likely more than that, because you can put it somewhere more optimal than just poking out the back of your device.

entirely separate and much more sophisticated technology

Or some math nerd will come up with an algorithm for general AI that is embarrassingly simple, and before you know it the "but can it run Doom?" crowd are implementing AI in toasters and watching them have existential crises for the lulz.

promises improved support for Wayland users by raising the minimum supported Wayland version to 1.20...

What a nice fluff piece for NVIDIA. How does ditching users below 1.20 and fixing an issue in their own UI improve support for Wayland exactly?

I do wonder if ditching < 1.20 support just so happens to fix the drop down issue they were having in their UI....

Some of the biggest jumps in house prices were when interest rates were less than 2 percent and you could get a million bucks from the bank just by asking to see the manager and giving them a firm handshake.

I can agree Pauline Hanson is a problematic individual

So problematic individuals shouldn't be punished by the collective? You know what happens then? A few problematic people muddy the waters and generally make it very difficult to actually get shit done.

just for that one stunt with that burqa

There are rules in the senate. They allow for structured and robust debate, but there are limits. You don't become a "problematic individual" with just the one stunt.

Ms. Hanson is - in my humble opinion - a shit-stirrer presenting views stuck in the 1950s that do not mesh well with 21st century geopolitics. Those views are popular with a small segment of the population and she knows it. Stunts like this give disproportionate attention to that small segment at the detriment to everyone else.

I don't see that at all. Perhaps you are just projecting your own issues onto Lemmy at large. I think you need to have a good hard look at yourself and your internal biases and then come back and apologise to all of us.

they're presented in the time and place you're more likely to interact with them.

Normally about 4 to 6 days late so you're "forced" to urgently like or comment after " missing out" on something in their life.

As is tradition.

I'm not a fan of people expressing views, even when awful, having machinations of the state used against them.

Welcome to the paradox of tolerance, enjoy your stay.

Search engines should have an off button for ai,

Techbros won't let that happen, because they're all terrified that consumers will just shut off all the AI being crammed into everything and all their money will evaporate.

If you're just simulating the temperature there's pretty much just three options:

• The thermostat will simply command the HVAC system to maximum cooling, just like with any temperature well above the setpoint.
• The thermostat will treat that value as a faulty sensor, report "error faulty sensor", and not do much in particular.
• The thermostat will crash due to an overflow of some sort as its software was never tested with inputs like that.

Personally, I'd go with, "error faulty sensor" as the most likely outcome.

(Edit: you can stimulate the temperature by setting your house on fire. Better to just simulate it)

The gains compound a bit too, 20 percent less weight equals proportionally less battery capacity required to shift the now-lighter vehicle from point A to point B.

So then you can cut the size of the battery while maintaining the same range, and that's where you start to get significant overall weight and cost savings.

The only extra moon I'm willing to accommodate is a blue moon. All the rest are just social media wankery, especially "supermoons" that are merely a few percent larger than usual due to the minor eccentricity of the moon's orbit.

Hey can you spare $20 for petrol? I'm a bit skint this week.

Personally, I'm holding out for the Electric Twizzler Platinum Edition Supermoon Series 9000, I hear it's going to be the best one yet.

It's all fun and games until your (insert vehicle here) crashes , or has a fire, or suffers a mishap, or reaches its destination and explodes as designed, and apart from all the normal problems you have with that, you also now have to contend with a few kilos of fizzed up nuclear fuel and some hot reaction by-products spread all over the place. You also have to contend with the neutron activation of the air passing through your nuclear ramjet, which makes it briefly radioactive, which is fine for a cruise missile that you intend to blow up in a few hours anyway, not so fine for regular transport routes.

Nuclear powered vehicles have some inherent risks with pain-in-the-ass consequences, and if we scale those small per-vehicle risks up across a worldwide fleet we'd see accidents involving them as often as we are aircraft crashes, and that's not great.

This is entirely the wrong community for this answer, but I've used the pro version of Textra for 10 years now. One time payment (10 years ago), updates every few months, lots of features, but they don't get in your way if you don't need them.

The main feature I use is "delay send for 5 seconds" to allow me to catch all my spelling and grammatical errors after I hit send , but the rest of the UI is pretty well thought out.

One of the very few commercial Android apps that I'd recommend to someone.

Fossify Messages is your trusted messaging companion

I hate this kind of advertising language.

Don't sell this as some fait accompli , done deal thing. It's not anything to me at the moment. It doesn't need to be my "messaging companion". It needs to be a program, that I use to send and receive SMS/MMS messages. That's it.

And "trusted"? I'll be the judge of that.

Can it be disabled?

Sure! There'll be a dialog box that comes up every single time that you wake your PC saying:

"Do you want to activate AwesomeAI™ now? 98 percent of the functions of this OS are crippled or unusable until you activate AwesomeAI™ so Microsoft recommends doing so immediately."

And the two options will be "OMG Yes!" , or "Maybe Later".
