3 months agoThe funny thing about air conditioning fluids, is that we are actually moving from HFC to propane and ammonia, due their green house effect.
Aka the thing that CFC were supposed to replace because they were safer.
It is a circle.

7·4 months agoThis isn’t true anymore, Intel dropped AVX512 since they moved to Big+Small cores design while AMD actually implemented it with Zen 4.
This could be useful for making synthetic aviation fuel at scale. Need methane + hydrogen + lot of energy.
Copper is abundant compared to the other rare earth catalysts, thus reducing cost.
10·4 months agoThe end result is that basically no one will be subject to this tax bracket.
It is high enough that everyone at that level will mainly get their real income from stock/loan which aren’t salaries.
Having this tax bracket or not having it is, basically the same for the super wealthy. The real method to tax them is through capital tax, not income.
4·5 months agoThis is x86_64. AMD had a joint venture with hygon and made a Zen 1 CPU with them.
They banned destrucive research for new rooms, because some researcher decade ago, enthusiastically drilled a bunch of holes to nowhere in order to do find them.
They still allowed the non destructive muon imaging a few year ago that heavily hinted to an unfound room.
If you already didn’t know, you can run locally some small models with an entry level GPU.
For example i can run Llama 3 8B or Mistral 7B on a 1060 3GB with Ollama. It is about as bad as GPT-3 turbo, so overall mildly useful.
Although there is quite a bit of controversy of what is an “open source” model, most are only “open weight”

Sorry to dive in DE land like that, but WTF is the chaotic neutral ?! There is no seat ?
7·7 months agoSo far seem to be an uneventful upgrade.
Defaulting to wayland for KDE6 on a nvidia GPU doesn’t seem to have broken anything
Yes, in the EU the minimum recording time was recently increased to 25h. It is not a tech limitation anymore. What is actually limiting are privacy concerns from misuse of the longer recording.
3·8 months agoPneumatic tires have always been made of vulcanised rubber though. Natural rubber is way too soft to hold up in this application.
Vulcanised rubber is a bio-based plastic, but being bio-sourced has nothing do with it being biodegradable. And vulcanised rubber isn’t.
There are bio-based-plastics that aren’t biodegradable, and fossil-based plastics that are biodegradable.
Black box were Solid State Drive before SSD were common, the advantages of no moving parts are simply too high.
Except PET from plastics bottles which is the only common plastic that is fully depolymerizable/ repolymerizable, instead of simply being remeltable.
3·8 months agoTLDR : The US doesn’t have regulations on the maximal allowed deceleration before brake light activation. But the EU does.
Seem to be mostly a Hyundai/Kia thing that they are currently fixing.
2·8 months agoPlease do not use this map projection. It is unambiguously trash. It distord shapes way to much. There are much better equal area projections, like Eckert IV or mollweide
1·9 months agoBecause this is the natural state of a market. Everything end up roughly at the same price, the price that buyers are willing to pay.
5·9 months agoIt depend.
“Machine à laver” (washing machine) = female
“Lave linge” (laundry washer) = male
I also recommend to stay away from NTFS3. I had some files that i couldn’t empty from the recycle bin, they just keep reappearing.
After a while NTFS3 straight up give up, it couldn’t mount the partition due to NTFS errors. At this point NTFS3g still worked, and i moved everything to an ext4 partition.
So the UK pulled out of EASA because they didn’t want to follow them.
And then they still want to follow EASA rules and want EASA to follow UK rules (basically EASA) in reciprocy ?!
It is moronic, just accept EASA regulations like about the whole world. No one is going to accept a regulation regime that fundamentally diverge from either the EASA or FAA.
