I am not sure. They have other businesses but not sure those other businesses are able to sustain the obligations that nVidia has committed to in this round. They are juggling more money than their pre-AI boom market cap by a wide margin, so if the bubble pops, unclear how big a bag nVidia will be left holding and if the rest of their business can survive it. Guess they might go bankrupt and come out of it eventually to continue business as usual after having financial obligations wiped away..

Also, they have somewhat tarnished their reputation with going all in on the dataenter equipment to, seemingly here, abandoning the consumer market to make more capacity for the datacenters. So if AMD ever had an opportunity to maybe cash in, well, here it might be.... Except they also dream of being a big datacenter player, but weaker demand may leave them with leftover capacity..

Well, they are helping out with that one...

We only do it in front of our kids to make them cringe

I guess the same way email can have html as an attachment for the same thing a plaintext does, evidently some of these mails suggested a mailer actually pdf encoded the email and attached, as well as the plain text.

So when someone replied with plaintext the base64 encoded PDF that they were replying to got 'quoted', meaning the unredacted email they were replying to is in there, just messy due to font confusion in the provided format.

Some of the reactions are some in an effective way, and I assume this example is one of them. The problem being evidently they didn't think any what might be in big base64 blobs in the PDF, and I guess some of these folks somehow had their email encoded as PDF, which seems bonkers....

A door handle should not require reading a manual, especially not if it works one way day to day but an entirely different way in an emergency when people are least likely to think of perusing the manual (which is also electronic in the Teslas, I believe).

The normal handles might shift the coefficient of drag by 0.01 by the most generous estimate I could find, and the Lucid Air has a coefficient of 0.197... It's insignificant. A flap-type door handle that is recessed is probably exactly the same as the 'cool' flat handle look, and if not an air baffle for the lower half would absolutely make it the same as the weird ones

But it's about locking the door from the outside that is relevant here. If the external handles get in the way of rescuers, then the fact that they outside handles are almost certainly locked in that situation anyway is even more so. They will break the window and use the interior mechanism (which if electronic, could still suck, which Tesla runs afoul of). If you had traditional door handles, but electronic mechanism, the first responders would still be screwed).

But the mechanism being electronic means no one can operate the latch. But if it were somehow mechanical, but still physically like the Model 3/Y door handles, would that be considered 'adequate'? It's confusing, and harder to open if there's ice over it, but I don't think that facet factors into a rescue scenario.

(but you would be right that the auto-lock has nothing to do with child occupants, it's about if someone can open your door at a stoplight)

I assume the base stations are being stolen by the police. If their police are able to steal the satellites, then I have to confess to be somewhat impressed.

Keep in mind these are dual socket systems, and that's CPU without any GPU yet. So with the CPUs populated and a consumer-grade high end GPU added, those components are at 1500W, ignoring PSU inefficiencies and other components that can consume non-trivial power.

For USA, you almost never run a 20A circuit, most are 15A, but even then that's considered short term consumption and if you run over a longer term it's supposed to be 80%, so down to 1440W. Space heaters usually max out at 1400W in the USA when expected to plug into a standard outlet because of this. A die-hard enthusiast might figure out how to spread non-rendundant multiple PSUs across circuits, or have a rare 20A circuit run, but it's going to be a very very small niche.

Ah, ok, that's fair. I agree that codec/bitrate choice has made a lot of ostensibly '4k' content look like crap, so why have 8k when many providers/internet connections won't even cover the requisite detail to drive 4k in streaming.

Even if the electios are free in fair, I don't think he'd be done in November.

The only way he's "done" is if GOP loses every single last senate seat up for grabs. Every single one in Nebraska, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Kansas, Oklahoma, South Dakota, West Virginia, Florida, Texas, etc.

Hell, most analysts think that Democrats don't have a realistic chance of even getting a simple senate majority, let alone a veto-proof one or even a filibuster proof one.

If they don't then they cannot remove anyone from office, they cannot override vetos. Yes, they can decline to pass bills, but given their stance of 'executive branch has supreme power', they'll just do illegal executive orders and ignore the courts unless the supreme court agrees with them. Trump is already declared immune from any and all crimes except by the Senate and has the ability to pardon any and all federal cases, and that's assuming his own enforcement agencies even bother trying to punish anyone...
