I was playing bloons td back when it was flash, in firefox. It was sometimes too slow. So i fired up perf and found out what horrors flash player was doing with memcpy. One byte memcpy, completely unaligned memcpy.
So i wrote an ssse3 memcpy that could do one byte unaligned with xmm registers. It was 30% faster then whatever glibc was doing and made the game playable. Was planing to submit it to glibc, but they came up with something different that was just as fast.
Ubuntu got to be most popular because they focused on making it easy to setup and use by non-technical people. Even now they, for example, patch gnome to make it usable.
It's better for them to ne on the grid instead of each having their own panel and battery. It's more efficient material-vise, and they would still need to be connected to the grid.
Warcraft 3 worked better then on win. At that time more then half of games worked (newest aaa-est usually had problems). Just before proton almost all games worked (with some winetricks black magic). Valve did help, but there's more to the story.
Depends on the definition of respect. It ranges from "not being an asshole to them" to putting them on a pedestal.
Being a teacher (or just being older) does not automatically mean you should be respected. All of my teachers in schools were worthy of respect, except two. One of them was a spiteful hag.
There are already enough satelites for airplane and sea (and middle of rainforest) internet. Skylink, or whatever it's called, was made for price gauged, infrastructure money laundered, usaians. Actually idk what it's made for. I don't see the point of private rocket companies at all. Guy was talking like elon, how we need to escape earth or something. Like it's not our problem.
Going to space now. I know nasa has contributed to humanity. They are even planing to make a radio telescope on the moon. Spacex is... putting internet into space. Internet.. into space. Instead of laying fiber and building radio towers, burning fuel to put a lot of satelites that need to be periodically replaced. They are even making the same mistakes that others have learned from. If that money went into proper research on just about anything.. If that money went into fiber.. If that money went to nasa, that is doing something actually useful. That money and work is going into burning fuel.
And yea, i get it, rockets are cool. Space is cool. But spacex is not about advancing humanity or anything.
Is the long list written anywhere ? And are they practical right now to everybody kind of reasons, or are they "in this hypothetical far future" kind of reasons ?
I know it's cool and all, but we know how to shoot things into space already.
Ofc. Looking at people who put solar panels on their roofs, it is enough for a household. Apartments use less power, but have much less roof per apartment. And industries use more power then households.
I think it's feasible (including electric cars), especially since we got hydro and stuff.
Real Engineering on youtube did calculations and such, so i recommend people to look there.
PS Funny how wind and hydro are just indirect solar.
You are conflating good and powerfull. The basic 1800£ one from then isnt even that powerfull. Half price from samsung or something would be the same. It's just not worth it, not by a long shot.
