I believe I read that not only are micro plastics unavoidable, the amount entering the environment produced by any organization is an order of magnitude higher than anything we produce at home.
Especially anything that comes in plastic wrap.
And then I’m a single father, so I’m just fucked!
Scrumlords I love it
Incoming 1Tb videogames. Compression? Who the fuck needs compression.
People don’t understand what “model” means. That’s the unfortunate reality.
I think that happened because “stealing” in the case it came to be known for was by download. So skipping the whole use of “steal” makes sense, because you quite literally cannot take the pirated song away from the publisher and profit from it. Unless you were selling bootleg consoles or burnt cds I guess
I always thought the “you wouldn’t download a car” thing was the worst comparison in any propaganda to this day.
Why the fuck wouldn’t I download a car? Is a better question.
Do they have a transcript? I can’t stand listening to podcasts for long
Wild. I suppose, thinking about it, it’s also way quicker to iterate on, test, and improve too.
You know, we have all the technology to do that.
Has anyone done it? Why haven’t I done it?
Damn you know, I’m gonna do it
Yeah, pretty much every medical research institution does. Hell, pretty much every research institution period does with the US Military.
Saying that they do research for the regime because they have federal funds is a bit of a stretch.
Famous and well respected. I think I can only name three that come close - Duke University, Cleveland Clinic, and Mayo Clinic.
Edit: and Brigham and Women’s. Ok maybe there are more now that I’m pondering it.
Phishing. Phishing can’t be beaten by software. Only education.
Not exactly how I expected the AI wars to go, but I guess since we’re in a cyberpunk world, we take what we get
At what point do we become Borg
Nope! It has a range of speeds. The PWM signal it provides also produces something called “counter-electromotive force”. I don’t remember the exact specifics, but if this measurement falls (corresponding with a drop in blooded pressure) it will increase the pump speed (up to the maximum RPM permitted).
That is how our circulatory system works as well - a drop in blood pressure usually results in an increase to heart rate. I say usually, because I coincidentally have a nervous disorder where this is broken - an increase in heart rate will drop my blood pressure. A drop in blood pressure will also increase my heart rate, which then drops my blood pressure, which causes a runaway and I faint.
You are completely correct. It’s been a while since I was flying.
I’m not actually sure what that battery pack is for.
I actually know this! I used to work on an LVAD controller about 10 years ago. The technology is largely similar.
The pumps are centrifugal, they have to maintain blood pressure, and are largely waterproof.
The pumps spin with a brushless DC motor controlled by PWM. Depending on the specifics of the motor the RPM can be between 8,000 and 22,000. Because of the limitations of battery technology, you’re stuck with using a LiPo battery. LiPos are annoying as all shit to deal with. You have to charge them carefully, discharge them carefully, and they’re pretty big.
To give you an idea - FPV drone batteries can last several minutes: https://www.getfpv.com/batteries/mini-quad-batteries/auline-21700-4000mah-14-8v-a45-4s-li-ion-battery-xt60.html (if you need help with scale - the yellow connector is called an xt60). On a really carefully tuned racer, you can get maybe 5 minutes out of a quad that would use that battery.
Oh. Personally for me it’s code reviews that prevent me from doing it, but pound you in the ass penitentiary is a good motivation too
Yes. I love it.
