@blind_via Single-sided and single-layer are not the same thing.

@thekitze Kids will always gravitate toward the most social or interactive experience in their environment. Some parents don’t have social relationships with their kids and don’t encourage social relationships between their kids. Screen addiction is a symptom of loneliness.

@porkinmorkin @lizajudyfan Some people are saying it’s sarcasm but I don’t see it.

@jlcjak @sahajsarup This is the one high-speed interface that is designed to be run over a potato. What you’re really doing here is showing off all the work that Intel did back in the 2010’s discovering that consumer interfaces have to be robust.

@FuhQ_2too @bourscheid The reason his whole face looks flat is because there are no shadows, and there are no shadows because there are too many spot lights. The shadows from his chin and shirt on his neck are just a spot they missed with the lights. Because it’s the only shadow it looks weird.

@jwt0625 There’s no commodity scale manufacturing of anything in the US. The closest we get is cars, just because they’re so expensive to import because of red tape.

@lisp4fun @blind_via You can use the energy stored in the magnetic field of a superconducting inductor like you would use a battery, but it would have the side effect of turning your car into a giant magnet, which would make your car stick to any ferrous metal you drive by.

@keyshawnius @blind_via Superconductors are real things in the real world which have real applications, notably in MRI machines. MRI magnets have electrical current circulating in their superconductors that doesn’t dissipate and has no voltage source connected.

@ben__bradley @minusYCore @blind_via During startup they add a series resistance, but it is removed after it’s started.

@nalinrajput23 You can also create a new account with the same username and password as an existing account, effectively locking out the original account.

[Normal Tangent @NormalTangent]

@nalinrajput23 Fun fact: you can have multiple Amazon/AWS accounts with the same username. They do indeed differentiate accounts by password.

@docakx “Only FDA-cleared procedure” has to be the most disingenuous wording I have ever seen. “FDA-cleared” is not even applicable to procedures, and definitely not unique or novel devices. Also, laser hair removal devices have been FDA-approved for permanent hair reduction since 1997.

@aebadirad The temperature difference that you can maintain depends primarily on how well the building is insulated. You shouldn’t be worrying about your system size until you fix up your barriers and insulation.

@grok @utcharle02 @JackPosobiec Answer: you.

@BossmanJacky @geraldbullTiVo The reason most passwords are trivial to crack is because nobody is brute forcing passwords. You start guessing with a list of previously leaked passwords.

@gabbertron @javier078 If you move from one home to another, there’s a really good chance that your collection will be in an unconditioned space for a while (moving truck, storage unit, etc.). The temperature swings can kill discs pretty quickly.

@nyaraVT True left wing extremism is direct democracy where every action the government takes is determined by a popular vote. It’s basically the worst consensus problem ever.

@qsdnl Maybe this dates back to when Cortana would introduce herself after she was installed?

@bamcashem @blind_via The inner hole does not appear to be plated, so they provide the electrical/thermal connection.
