I was being nice.

For myself and I suspect others from the US it was very clear.

The wording is a bit annoying.

The first court date was him appearing as he had been summoned by the ticket. THAT case was thrown out (he was found to have not broken a law)

He is now starting a class action lawsuit so that other cyclists affected can get some financial compensation as they were wrongfully fined. Many could have just paid the fine and not realized the ticket was incorrect.

If he had lost (the fine was found to be correct) and then decided to start a class action lawsuit anyway the lawsuit would almost immediately be dismissed

I just came to say that his mouth really needs to have a dick photo shopped in it

At this point In N Out is cheaper now.

I would ask what value chromebooks add to education?

We are not teaching kids to do anything with them other than consume Google and Adobe services.

It’s no better than schools were when I was in school where we used windows and mainly learned to consume Microsoft products.

Chromebooks are absolute garbage.

Most computers I have used over the last 15 years will disable USB power if you short out the port (working with electronics you tend to replicate the “sticking scissors into a USB port” with some regularity)

Pencil lead I am sure causes other issues though… it gets red hot and melts eventually

I had no clue that they did digital betamax…

That would make senes though…

There was at one point an HDVHS as well it was essentially a 1080P MPEG stream on a VHS tape

A lot of these systems are silly because they don’t have a lot of RAM and things don’t begin to get interesting with LLMs until you can run 70B and above

The Mac Studio has seemed an affordable way to achieve running 200B+ models mainly due to the unified memory architecture (compare getting 512GB of RAM in a Mac Studio to building a machine with enough GPU to get there)

If you look the industry in general is starting to move towards that sort of design now

The framework desktop for instance can be configured with 128GB of RAM ($2k) and should be good for handling 70B models while maintaining something that looks like efficiency.

You will not train, or refine models with these setups (I think you would still benefit from the raw power GPUs offer) but the main sticking point in running local models has been VRAM and how much it costs to get that from AMD / Nvidia

That said, I only care about all of this because I mess around with a lot of RAG things. I am not a typical consumer

Betamax actually found use in Television broadcast until the switch to HDTV occurred in 2009

Same, That 70s show was my background noise of choice until this all went down.

I think I could’ve separated a bit more if not for Ashton and Mila Kunis being character witnesses.

Also let it stain every actor and celebrity you know that is in that freaky book club called “The Church of Scientology” that they were doing what they could to harass witnesses into silence.

Packaging is everything and this could be neat…

Everything the flipper zero does can be achieved with an ESP32 and CC1101 which runs around $10 yet the flipper is a $200 device

Add some costs for nfc and an infrared LED… $20 total

Packaging is everything… my flipper kicks ass

This guy’s details are always awesome and this picture is a great example

Thats the concept of Sous Vide.

You essentially vacuum seal the meat in a bag and then stick in water thats at 120F (just an example) and let it get its internal temp up to match

You typically finish it with a sear. Some restaurants do this pretty heavily as it makes achieving consistency stupid simple.
