The CHIPS (etc) Act was enough to justify his presidency by itself, IMO. It was insane that such a huge percentage of the world’s semiconductor research and production were concentrated in one country, especially a small one that China has been eyeing like a feral cat for years.
I’ve been using a DaVinci IQ2 for a while and really like it. I’m a pretty light user, I just vape one time a day an hour or two before going to bed, gives me some time to relax and helps me fall asleep. Anyways, the thing I like about the IQ2 the most is their stainless dosage pods. They only hold like 0.3g but that’s enough for a vape session. And they have an ingenious grinder that you easily pack a 6-pack of pods super easy, and a storage holder for them that’s pretty nice and helps with smell. It makes it so easy to prep for a few sessions and minimizes cleanup by quite a lot. And with their app you can set up your vape and even put in your strain info to track THC consumption, if that’s something you want to do. Downside is their ecosystem is pretty pricey, but they have been including their pods or a grinder lately.
Overall if you’re not a heavy smoker DaVinci makes some really good stuff. It gets pretty hot so I’d recommend getting their silicone glove and giving it some time to cool off between sessions. Gotta look around for coupons, though. MSRP is like $299 for the IQ2, but I think I got mine around $230. IQC is a bit cheaper, I have one as a backup just in case, really just the mouthpiece and some app functionality are what you’re giving up. Plus the IQ2 has a 10 year warranty and thr IQC I think it’s like 3 or 5 years.
Drop has kinda gone to shit anyways. Though I have gotten some good headphones off them. But I ordered a set of wood IEM’s back in January. Got and update like a month later that the supply chain got messed up, will ship in June. Current order status is “Reserved for shipment. Estimated ship date: July 10”. So like a week ago. And all the emails from them lately have been
“Check out these amazing keycaps!11!1!”
“Hey look, we got more keycaps!!!”
“Limited time only super-special keycaps!”
“Hey, you looking for some keycaps?!”
It’s not what it used to be, just like everything else on the internet.
MakeMKV (at least in windows) lets you rip a remuxed mkv without having to rip everything. So you can just select the titles, audio, and subtitle tracks you want without ripping all the other stuff. You don’t need to make a full backup and then pull all that out.
Alyx came out 4 years ago, and is recognized as one of the best VR titles of all time. It’s a full 15 hour game, so not a tech demo. I’d say that’s a hit.
