ch00f , to 196 in 40 Kilobyte Rule

Thx

ch00f , (edited ) to 196 in 40 Kilobyte Rule

Yeah, but the same is true for .kkrieger which is more impressive imo.

ch00f , to Technology in EVs still have major quality problems, and it’s mostly about the software

How did you feel about the L3 charging rate? 50kW isn’t super fast.

I just want an EV company to make the equivalent of a shitty Toyota Prius.

Yeah, but he’s right about that part. Hybrid cars are just BEVs with more steps that can’t be recharged at home. Maybe useful for planes and other specific applications. Dumb for cars.

If you want to spite this guy, ride a bus.

ch00f , to Technology in NBC to use AI-generated version of Al Michaels' voice during Summer Olympics

Huh. Didn’t know TiVo was still around.

We use a Tabo at home. Like TiVo, but primarily for network access from phones/media streamers. Has a similar lifetime subscription too.

You could even use one from the 1940s if you want!

Assuming your tuner was manufactured later than around 2005 and supports ATSC digital broadcasts. Also makes me wonder when you got your TiVo. I thought they were dead long before everything went digital.

ch00f , to Technology in NBC to use AI-generated version of Al Michaels' voice during Summer Olympics

What a coincidence that the best broadcaster who ever lived or will ever live happened to be alive in time for us to record him and immortalize his voice to use for generations to come.

That's why we're doing this, right? Because there's no other human alive who is capable of reading a script as well?

ch00f , to Technology in Using The Wind And Magnets To Make Heat

Yeah, mine can boil a liter of water in 101 seconds at 450ft altitude.

I had a unique opportunity to directly compare my infrared cooktop (which I mislabeled as resistive) and my new induction cook top, so I did a little experiment to compare them: https://www.reddit.com/r/Cooking/comments/seaint/for_anyone_contemplating_upgrading_from_an/

TLDR: It boiled water in half the time using roughly half as much energy. Part of that may be due to the test pot being smaller than the burner, but this was the case for both stoves. It's just the induction doesn't heat the space around the pot.

ch00f , to Technology in Using The Wind And Magnets To Make Heat

Handling a pet peeve of mine. 3 seconds into the video, he talks about induction stovetops and shows a picture of a glass top radiant stove.

Radiant stoves are just slightly better than electric resistive stoves. They are not induction though they can look similar. People try them and hate them and assume induction is terrible when it isn't.

ch00f , to Fuck Cars in Elon Musk haters vandalized dozens of Tesla Cybertrucks by spray painting "F**K ELON" on dozens of them

They should have aimed at the non-stainless steel portion. Pretty sure you could wipe this up easy with some acetone or gasoline as a solvent.

ch00f , to Technology in Apple Reportedly Suspends Work on Vision Pro 2

If you are really super deep into the ecosystem and the AR pass through is that good, then I can see it working. On Oculus, I often find myself peering through the gap by my nose to see whatever notification or whatnot on my phone. Apple Vision can fix that.

Though you still have to contend with the comfort factor. It’s a lot to wear on your face when you’re supposed to be casually enjoying content for hours at a time. Heaven forbid you care about how your hair looks.

ch00f , to Technology in The Framework Laptop 13 is about to become one of the world’s first RISC-V laptops

Wasn’t there a bounty out like 10 years ago for writing an open source alternative to the video drivers? I remember reading about that.
