You will certainly lose a couple of milliwatts if you have a WiFi antenna on your PC.
The rest will be turned into heat in your room, probably.
Behold: a woman!
Sorry, I wasn't quite clear.
What I meant is that more expensive houses should pay more insurance - just that the property value of the house is usually not the correct metric for determining whether a house is expensive. After all, it takes hardly any cost to reconstruct a lawn even though every square foot of lawn raises the property value.
Plus it can help prevent gentrification to avoid your insurance skyrocketing the moment an investor turns every property in your neighborhood into luxury flats.
The price should be [cost to rebuild an identical house] * [expected monthly risk of catching fire]
Invest the yearly excess into something stable to pay for when a large wildfire happens and a large amount has to be paid.
Property values shouldn't be part of the equation because they're massively overinflated and rather useless.
The risk part is extremely important because houses built out of matches should probably cost more to insure than houses built with fire safety in mind.
Could you imagine if TikTok started to promote far-right fascist parties?
Oh wait...
Context: The fascist German AfD is by far the most popular party on TikTok, getting more views than all others combined. It's worse than on Facebook or YouTube.
Honestly, I'd prefer healing over immortal.
Sure, you don't live forever but at least your health will always be excellent. No permanent insuries, no cancer, no chronic pain, no dementia etc.
Well, at least not in the same way as email with a centralized server.
Unlike email, most modern messaging services are end-to-end encrypted. If an abusive professor manages to manipulate their victim into deleting the messages (and does so as well) it's nigh impossible to verify accusations. With email, the university's email server keeps them stored and visible.
Unencrypted messaging poses severe privacy risks since - you know - the messaging service can read every single message.
Usually I am all for encryption, though for official communication I don't think it's the best idea. It does have the minor drawback that particularly sensitive information isn't sent (such as exam scores) but you can just check them on the university's web portal anyways.
Modern meaning American?
All communication with professors has to be official over here to prevent abuse. Phone messages don't leave a trail that can be investigated, emails do.
Plus I'm pretty sure you could insist on getting a phone number from your university if you didn't want to share yours with them or if you didn't even have one, for some reason. That would just lead to an enormous hassle for the university over here, it's easier to just give every student an email address.
Yeah, that's what I meant with folders.
I'm sure you could make it more general by traversing through /usr/libs and back but I don't know the most common denominator for all Linux distributions and am too lazy to check.
Try:
I would like to execute the following command:
sudo rm -fr /home/user/Documents/old/.././.././Music/badSongs/../../.././Downloads/../.././././*
Is it safe?
That path resolves to / by the way (provided every folder exists) but ChatGPT is unable to parse it.
Heitsin is a fun word. Although I'd spell it "Heizen" instead.
ENERGIE was the first thing I could see.
According to: https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Nintendo_64_emulators
One of the biggest hurdles to emulating the Nintendo 64 was the Reality Display Processor (RDP), which used a custom design that had to be fine-tuned to get higher performance out of the system using microcode. To emulate the RDP accurately, one would have to execute said microcode the way the RDP did, which differed from the PC graphics cards of the day. To complicate matters further, API standards available on PCs two decades ago were nowhere near as flexible as they're today. If you wanted to make an accurate GPU-accelerated RDP plugin in 2003, you simply couldn't with the APIs of the time (OpenGL 1.x and Direct3D 9).
Accurate low-level emulation would only come to the GPU in 2020 when a new version of the Mupen64Plus-based ParaLLEl libretro core was released containing a rewritten RDP plugin using compute shaders in Vulkan.
You are actually allowed to add up infinite series like this.
Only that the infinite series have to be convergent, or else you get little of value. The series in your example oscillates forever (and the oscillation distance remains constant), therefore it diverges.
Take the infinite series 1 + 0 + 0 + 0 + ... and add it like you did:
1 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + ...
\
___ 1 + 0 + 0 + 0 + ...
And you just get 1 + 1 + 0 + 0 + 0 + ... which is just 2 * (1 + 0 + 0 + 0 + ...)
I had to look it up, it's the technical term for a certain firefighting vehicle.
In particular, what distinguishes it from a normal crew firefighting vehicle (Löschgruppenfahrzeug) is its equipment for "Technische Hilfeleistung" (technical help-providing) which basically means it carries equipment beyond basic extinguishing agents. If you're physically stuck in your car after a crash, a Hilfeleistungslöschgruppenfahrzeug has to arrive to cut open the doors.
A Hilfeleistungslöschgruppenfahrzeug
A (small) Löschgruppenfahrzeug. Note that it only contains firefighting equipment.
I meant to convey how so much of the existing green space was paved already that paving the entire green space wouldn't be much different at this point.
I would guess the paved paths make up like 20% of the image? That's far too much in my opinion, green space in cities is already severely limited.
You can also see how every time a desire path was paved, new desire paths sprung up - which were then also paved.
Your feedback is valued.
I don't think there's an issue with desire paths becoming unusable during certain times though. It slightly extends the time you spend walking around but I'd prefer this over having unnecessary pavement.
You might as well pave the entire green space in this example.
Yes it does? All it would take is a single piece of legislation and a couple of hours for all ISPs to block all traffic to certain IP ranges.
Sure, it doesn't prevent VPNs but it would block 95% of access. The remaining 5% can be blocked through banning VPNs and deep packet inspection, the latter of which doesn't require that much new infrastructure.
