As someone who checked it out for physics here’s my experience:

Anything that could easily be found and be correct that would be found on chegg, would be easily repeated by chatgpt, and with usually clearer solutions that was easier for slightly different problem prompts.

Anything that could not be well answered by chatgpt likely would not have a good solution on chegg, being either outright wrong, or extremely confusing as an answer.

Not in one exposure. Human eyes are much better with dealing with extremely high contrasts.

Cameras can be much more sensitive, but at the cost of overexposing brighter regions in an image.

I honestly though I would get used to it, like the forced 2-2-2 comps which I initially disliked, but I never did. It just made the game feel like too much more like a pure fps. And it not feeling like that was what made it unique.

In my experience all the que times were fine as 2-2-2 even when queued as duo dps

Ehh I disagree, I played consistently ow1 for years and ow2 just wasn’t as good.

I mainly missed tank synergies. Without it the game just wasn’t the same. The other tank changes were just insane too. And I preferred the full 6v6 experience.

Then they had to go an monetize the shit out of it, when I already paid for the game! The last straw was either paying for new characters or grinding like hell.

Imo your best bet is to see if you can find someone else’s used gaming computer.

Roughly ~400$ gets you pretty far for hardware 3-5 years old

The energy efficiency will be much worse, so depending on how much you use it you may want to account for that and get slightly newer.

In my personal experience look start in amd’s Am4 platform, as it’s quite upgradable up to a 5800x3d.

But to start something like a 2700x or 3700x are solid cpus.

Equivalent Intel cpus are an option too.

As for gpus look for 1000s series nvidia 1070-1080 and onwards. Less than might be too weak.

Similar for amd. Vega 56/64, 5700xt etc.

Huh the 1080ti came out 7 years ago, so I was a bit off.

They’ve had fab problems for years, in that it cost them a ton on money and much longer than desired to shrink nodes, so they’ve fallen from a leader in fab production to being behind.

Not to mention there’s not much money to be made from fabs, unless your tsmc.

AMD, Qualcomm, Nvidia, Google, Apple, are all huge tech companies that design their own cutting edge chips, and only Samsung is another company that both designs and produces chips.

Diversity is important, but it’s still better to go after larger sources of energy first. There’s just not much energy to be recovered from falling rain or waste from cars.

Make the cars waste less energy, or the transit system in general is much easier and will actually save money long term.

Ehh it’s still a rubbish idea, that money would be much better spent going after primary producers of energy, like solar, wind, geothermal, or nuclear.

Some napkin math and an equivalent area of solar, say over a road or parking lot would produce 3.5 million kwh in a year.

I mean the books are great too, apparently they’re even better in it’s native language.

People didn’t buy the last mini, so why would Apple do it again?

Enough money to buy Activision-Blizzard and Bethesda, but not enough to actually pay for developers or marketing.

Most people have pretty decent ai hardware already in the form of a gpu.

Sure dedicated hardware might be more efficient for mobile devices, but that’s already done better in the cloud.

At my local theatre the nice seats are $18 and the slightly cheaper normal seats are $15. That’s including fees for times outside of working hours.

A theatre outing for me and my wife costs more than a 4k uhd bluray for the movies we watch.

That’s not even including food, which if we go to a theatre we usually bring to avoid the high food prices.

After upgrading to an oled TV theatres picture quality is just inferior. So now I really don’t want to watch movies in theatres.

Sure the sounds is still better, but it’s usually too loud for me, and lacks subtitles.

Add to that the ludicrous cost of theatre tickets and it’s just not worth it.

Closest in the united States is a chevy bolt, but that’s still pretty far.

I’d love a fairly dumb ev. Give me just enough computer for battery/charging management and let me do the rest.

100 nano seconds is 0.1 micro seconds, so not quite.

I imagine double digit is 99 ns or less

I think at that point I’d mail a certified letter and cancel whatever card it’s on.

That probably wouldn’t work but one can dream.

It’s still free, just under a different plan named lite https://www.realvnc.com/en/connect/plan/lite/

Yeah it’s annoying and shitty, but it’s not so bad.

“This is the first demonstration of high resolution up-conversion imaging from 1550-nm infrared to visible 550-nm light in a non-local metasurface," said author Rocio Camacho Morales. "We choose these wavelengths because 1,550 nm, an infrared light, is commonly used for telecommunications, and 550 nm is visible light to which human eyes are highly sensitive. Future research will include expanding the range of wavelengths the device is sensitive to, aiming to obtain broadband IR imaging, as well as exploring image processing, including edge detection.”

That does not sound like an Infrared camera.

Are they still using Mp3 for audio or have they switched to something more modern for that too?
