  • The butterfly effect refers to divergent chaotic systems. Chaos in math isn't the layman's chaos. It doesn't mean wild. It only means there is no closed form mathematical solution. For example stepping on a butterfly can't affect the weather such that the moon would crash into the Earth.

    Bumping into Hitler's parents wouldn't necessarily change anything. You have to do something drastic such that he was conceived days to weeks apart such that the sperm was completely different. Even a minor delay wouldn't affect it because the sperm that fertilizes an egg isn't random. There are selection hurdles in mobility that the sperm passes such that the most "fit" is likely the one that fertilizes the egg.

  • It can generate a huge waste but you don't have to use it that way. I'm working on making my plates use less color changes by separating more but it's still nice to be able to select a filament that's been in a dryer from the slicer instead of having to manually change rolls. I also want to play with using different filaments for supports. It uses minimal extra filament but makes supports work much better.

  • Knowing the exact oil level is very important for new cars. The piston rings are now made of softer metal to get a few more mpgs. If you overfill oil, you will get blow by, damage the rings, and start burning oil. Toyota now has an involved process of changing oil, running the engine, then topping off the oil while the engine is hot so as to not overfill. But not even my dealer follows that official procedure Toyota put in their manual.

  • The only reason Fauci was on TV and setting policy on COVID was because Trump hired him to the Trump task force. Trump could have removed him from the Task force. Instead Trump acted like he had no power over Fauci.

    That Fauci had been previously working for the government is irrelevant. Trump hired Fauci to the Trump COVID Task Force. Everything Fauci did was under Trump's control.

  • It's new hardware. It needs to interact with Windows or Linux at a level that gives it hardware access. That requires admin (Windows) or Root (Linux) for software to be installed that has the ability to interact with new hardware that neither Windows nor Linux knows about.

    Software talks to the Operating System. The Operating System talks to drivers (small programs that understand the hardware). Drivers talk to hardware. Windows and Linux come bundled with hundreds of drivers. But they don't come bundled with drivers for everything. That's why you need to install the driver. If software could access hardware directly as a stand alone program, then anything you click on or run on the internet could also directly access hardware and install viruses, Trojans, spyware, etc.

    Software that could run stand alone and directly access hardware is how PC's running DOS worked.

  • He's being down voted because both are amphetamines that have been used by militaries. His reply stating "it's ADHD medicine" ignores that it is an amphetamine used by the US military during WW2 to keep soldiers awake for days at a time with reduced need for food.

    The person corrected the original post from meth to dex. Saying "it's ADHD medicine" in context of its military use is wrong.
