I think Logitech should take responsibility and give them a $30 voucher

More data rot. I wonder how many millions of links are about to disappear.

Cardboard is the most recyclable material we have. Plastic is complicated.

Better than recycling is to not consume in the first place.

Auto tldr bot missed this:

Currently, the country’s electricity grid is only permitted to have a maximum of 75 per cent renewables in its energy mix. That meant that some of the energy was exported to Britain and Ireland had to meet the rest of the demand using fossil fuels.

This limit has gone up over the years from 50 to 75 per cent since 2011 and is set to increase further to 95 per cent by 2030. It is in place because using entirely renewable power means changes have to be made to the country’s electricity grid.

Are you saying the CEO of the charity organization, ADHD UK, is making the drug policy?

So mozilla is paying the server costs for this, what's the business model?

I wouldn't assume Googe pays less for storage. They need to pay for land use in many countries, power usage, redundancy and the staff that manages all of it.

They also need powerful servers with fast caching storage and a lot of RAM. They also need to pay for the bandwidth.

As far as I know, they save multiple copies of each video in all resolutions they serve. So an 8K video will also have 4K + 1440p + 1980p + 720p + 480p + 240p + 144p Possibly also 60Hz and 30Hz for some of them and also HDR versions.

You have to add all that to the cost per TB. Finally, there is the question of how much additional storage they need per year, 100 PByr? Presumably also increasing yearly?

I'm using foobar2000. Should I be using something else?

I've seen plenty of complains about Tesla not supporting android auto

Maybe because you're wishing them success?

Not exactly Valve's fault

"To be fair, with the servers shutdown, the game would have been impossible to play anyways. This isn’t simply because it’s an online-only game. In fact, Order of War: Challenge has 18 single-player missions as well. But due to always-online DRM, even the single-player portion of the game requires the servers to be up and running."

I've been missing the apocalympics content

Like LetMeEatCake said, storage is cheap, cheaper than CPU power. I don't know for sure, but if you have a video that will be played 1000 times, what would be better? Transcode 1000 times or store 8 versions of the video?

Better fire 50000 people ASAP

I like this take, it's like the LLM is doing a cold reading of what the expected response is.

Isn't that just Disney Land?

A lot of smart key cars are vulnerable to relay attacks. It's not a solved security issue by any means.

It's a super expensive VR device, no way it sells well at that price. --we'll see how this comment ages

Did you try another power supply?

I'd love to see a crank on EVs to power the low voltage stuff in emergencies. How many amps does the car startup take? 15A? Maybe bicycle pedals.

It's ridiculous, they meet short term goals but long term @avidamoeba will realize they need to switch to Firefox.

Cheap steering wheel lock, nice.

Same, but sometimes I forget to recharge the controller

You're not???

It's great. Turns out it's AI generated also.

Lol, what activity. Screw you reddit!

65 liter gas tank is kind of cheating. For reference, my hybrid corolla will do 1000 miles on 65 liters.

How do you decide what to listen to? I assume you don't listen to multiple entire discographies

My understanding, zero day means when the exploit was discovered it was already being used in the wild. This is different from an exploit discovered by a bounty program or by security researchers.
