Smith, Your Celeron logo reminds me of good times. I want to say somewhere around 1998, during that weird time when CPUs were in slots, the bottleneck for overclocking was the level 2 cache. Since the main difference between Celeron and Pentium was that the Celeron didn't have any level 2 cache, it ...

Well done, ocho!

I'm not sure AI bunnies are okay. The whole reason the video is interesting is because it's fun to see bunnies actually doing that. If they weren't actually doing that, then... what's the point?

I really doubt the charger or especially the cable has any bearing on any problems. There's no such thing as "too much current" as it's the battery that determines the amount of current. (Although, some say that "fast charging" is harder on the battery.) Leaving a lithium ion bat...

I highly recommend getting one with an inverter. When you ask for 50% power on a traditional microwave, it runs full blast half the time and off half the time. With an inverter microwave, it gives you 50% power all the time. It makes the microwave much more capable of doing things like defrosting, o...

Okay, Vinny. The video that dualstow recommended is two minutes long. Lex Fridman reviewed it positively AND donated $100 to the creator. Really the first 10 seconds would be sufficient.

dockinga, Welcome back! Please remember that just as Frugal gets some slack for being a non-native English speaker, Mathjak should get some as he is only physically able to type with a single finger. As far as buckets, Frugal is the one who brought up buckets, and Mathjak only responded to that ques...

frugal, flooding the forum with AI text isn't particularly helpful. Please give us your thoughts/concerns rather than just pasting from somewhere else. Hi Xan, English is not my first language, so sometimes I rely on tools to help express complex ideas. But I understand your point :-[ Best regards!...

Vinny, you'll get the joke after about 2 seconds. No need to go into video-watching (or not-watching) mode.

It's not that kind of video, Vinny. Just pull it up.

I'm not sure it's terribly helpful to paste the output of an LLM here.

But I have a bias in that I'm one of those "Israel can do no wrong" people. Wow. Even I can’t say that. 😬 After what has been done to the Jewish people not in in World War II but before and after .. I totally support their "Never again." Greatly admire their extreme toughness in...

What was that?

1. Why is that never brought up? Prange is well-known. Cannot answer that. I was well-documented in the book. It was all new to me at the time that I read it. But that does not conform with this, which states early 1941. https://www.perplexity.ai/search/according-to-gordon-prange-whe-LhfIgMs3QOWBd8...

I've never heard the 10 years figure either. Somewhere, probably this forum, I heard a theory that the U.S. knew the Pearl Harbor attack was coming. That's not impossible, but I just put it aside and never really took it seriously or thought about it again. Or at least, knew it might be coming. May...

Hello! I'm new on the forum. I just registered because I'm looking for informations to invest in cryptocurrencies. Thanks! Can you add any more details to make your story more believable? I discovered cryptocurrencies years ago but I was not interested to invest in them. I have some friends which b...

I agree. Obviously, Pearl Harbor has a tainted reputation, as it should. The U.S. was not a belligerent and anyway, was there anything particularly clever about it? I doubt many deaths occurred from the drone strike on Russia’s grounded fleet of bombers. Ukraine brought these drones in to Russia, l...

Leverage and algorithmic trading now prevail in the majority of retail trading. High-frequency and algorithmic trading have been approximated to account for 40-70% of US equity volume traded. Such strategies are primarily executed by institutions through advanced, automated platforms, frequently at...

What you say makes sense but it seems that a municipal default is quite rare? Perhaps, but a default of an entity like the United States government has never happened. It might be impossible in theory. I should clarify that the United States have defaulted before, but not when using a system of fia...

"Defy" I believe is the wrong word here; what they seem to be saying is that states will be keeping their pristine credit rating even as the federal government does not. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/us-states-likely-defy-us-163315923.html Does that really make a lot of sense, that the s...

Okay, I've determined that we've been under a distributed "Slow Loris" attack. Having deployed specific countermeasures to that, I should no longer need to be playing whack-a-mole with IP addresses.

No idea why anybody would want to shut down this forum, though.
