I mean, can't you just cordon off the hot room and deal with it in the fall? My family did that, I will do it with our master sometimes. If it's too hot home just can't cool everything effectively, so I just close the door to our master and we camp out in the living room on extremely hot days. Uses less power and there's really no real loss.

Is there a site like this for other refurbished items beyond storage? More cases, tam, cpus?

That's the nuance of AI that anyone who has done any actual work with ML has known for decades now. ML is amazing. It's not perfect. It's actually pretty far from perfect. So you should never ever use it as a solo check, but it can be great for a double check.

Such as with cancer. AI can be a wonderful choice to detecting a melanoma, if used correctly. Such as:

• a doctor has already cleared a mole, but if you want to know if it warrants a second opinion by another doctor. You could have the model to have a confidence of say, 80% sure that the first doctor is correct in that it is fine.
• if you do not have access to a doctor immediately, it can be a fine check, again only to a certain percentage. Say that in this case in the future you are worried but cannot access a doctor easily. A patient could snap a photo and in this case a very high confidence rating would say that it is probably fine, with a disclaimer that it is just an AI model and if it changes or you are still worried, get it checked.

Unfortunately, all of that nuance in that it is all just probabilities is completely lost on both the creators of all of these AI tools, and the risks are not actually passed to the users so blind trust is the number one problem.

We see it here with police too. "It said it's them". No, it only said to a specific confidence that it might be them. That's a very different thing. You should never use it to find someone, only to verify someone.

I actually really like how airport security implemented it because it's actually using it well. Here's an ID, it has a photo of a person. Compare it to the photo taken there in person, and it should verify to a very high confidence that they are the same person. If in doubt, there's a human there to also verify it. That's good ML usage.

Yeah with their "everything is an Xbox" nonsense it's pretty clear they want to focus on the platform, marketplace where you buy games. Playing them is kind of second. I'm sure they'll still have something, but it's going to be more geared towards cloud streaming, pc, handhelds, and "play where you want" so they can just do the digital side. I wouldn't be surprised if they get partners like Asus to build boxes now.

Not the original, but from my experience, I believe this enabled the toggle which tells the game that you support HDR, proton then picks up the HDR signal and displays it, the rest is on your display.

The article said there's a phone companion app

There's a good chunk of us who used it with the web, and they're adding that to the vast Google graveyard. That in and of itself makes me excited to see an alternative because Google will kill the app version on a whim too.

I've thought that it would work better more like the EU. Ola body overseeing some more basic concepts while each individual completely governs themselves. Maybe that was the original idea, it's been so lost though.

Hardwood is great, but you need to plan where you're hanging around. Area rugs are useful, and for dishes or cooking a good spongy mat is useful and looks nice

It made me realize how addicted to reddit I was for sure

I've heard this too and it's true, but also you don't want to needlessly spend on things either. For example, a good bed is worth the cost, the saying holds up. However, if you buy the pro version of every tool you'll go broke. You can instead buy the cheap one first, anything you use enough where it would break is then worth buying the expensive one

I didn't leave Reddit, Reddit disabled the app I used to access it for over 10 years when they disabled API access. Figured they didn't want or need my contributions anymore.

I honestly haven't seen that in years. And even if it was everywhere, does it honestly matter what they prefer to go by? I mean, it's honestly just a pronoun

Thank god the emoji is there, it tells me that it's funny and I should laugh!

Having worked at best buy, I'd say there's a very small chance the manager can even do anything at this point. They already have such a small level of power. Maybe the store manager, like the manager of the other managers at the store, usually the store locator can do that. They have authority to actually just give away a laptop and eat the cost, maybe they can disable the cheap ass shipping options

I'm guessing lawyers drew it up as a standard tos and they threw it over the fence tbh

But they can stack the deck heavily in their favor, and you don't have the same legal protections anymore. Who arbitrates Where? When?

RAID definitely does not count as part of your backup, it's a helpful thing, but the entire array can fail. You still need minimum 2 other copies of your data to be considered safe

In a raid? No. A drive that has an application copy it every night or something? Yes.

Remember that cloud backups is the last location, the 1 in 3-2-1. You should have two local copies already on top of your cloud copy
