I use DDG but i do wonder what i dont see sometimes.
I often google a specific brand of components at work and even with the exact brand and/or part number in the search it sometimes doesnt turn up any results (say 5-7 random unrelated webpages) and thats it. Then i put the same search in google and bam, top result.

There is no such thing as a free service.

People need to eat, bills need to be paid, shelter needs to be provided and unless people can have these at no expense and create things for pure passion & share for others to enjoy then they need the means to pay for these things.

The internet has whittled this down to a few basic models:

• Pay the service directly for the content (subscriptions or 1 time purchases)
• 'Free' content and they serve you ads which they are paid for by companies trying to sell something to you
• 'Free' content and they sell every bit of data they can scrape from you to companies which are again, trying to sell something to you.

If you could find a way to do anything without having to pay for our human needs then would it be a trillion dollar idea or would money be meaningless now when people wouldnt need it to live & enjoy their lives?

Imagine if all it took was someone with a disease to stroll through congress one day and wipe out those past the best before date

Not the sharpest crayon in the bunch?

Looks like something you can manipulate with a sheikah slate

"He's not all there" is the most basic version of this saying.

"He's got a few tools missing from the shed" is an aussie version too.

Who, that hacker guy?

I thought republicans were too busy stopping people from aborting life threatening medical situations to stop the 'hippies' from having their happy herbs.

Cause the puzzle's in pieces again, demons become angels to some

You are building my case for me...

Thanks for your response anyway!
I cynically feel like it may come down to the red-pen signatories who say "why 47 bays when we can squeeze in 50?! make it 50"

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks!

This is not a typo right, 307Amps?!
What creative maths have they done to get this number?

The PCB tracks on the motherboard are what, about 0.5mm thick and about 2mm wide (for the larger channels)? I can absolutely guarantee you arent getting 300+ Amps through those tracks.

Update: Thanks for the replies, it makes sense when dealing with these extremely low voltages and TIL a lot. Cheers!

Pretty much answering your last paragraph: Relevant John Oliver segment

What regulations?

And now people use them for minor cuts and soon we will no longer have (effective) antibiotics.
