Never heard of this

good chance i've never seen anything in these tweets in my life

if i speak

They do, if you use the Flatpak :)

Updating via the package manager is how the distros want Discord to do it w/their package managers.

Well I guess trying something new and giving up on it still counts as inventing a new thing.

Yes! And even things that aren't invented. I wish I got to see all the stuff the old detergent companies tried and how things did.

VRAM is definitely not it.

Strongly disagree with the person saying that it sounds like overheating: components are designed to "throttle" (slow themselves down to reduce power consumption and heat output) whenever they get too hot, and long before they shutdown.

It sounds like an issue w/the power supply.

can get them, I’ve heard they're really good.

Otherwise, if you can't: wishing you good luck w/the weather. Stay warm.

Oh no, be careful. They sell these here: www.homedepot.com/p/VEVOR-18-f...

Idk if you're already familiar with them (I think you mentioned living in the north for a while, but I may be confusing you with someone else) so I hope it's not both unsolicited and totally unnecessary advice. But if you

I stand corrected, thanks. I'll delete the original tweet.

those 10 suspects posted screenshots inconsistent with a 1080p monitor. one had a screenshot with a resolution of 1200p, one with 2160p, one 720p, etc.

you now have far fewer leads to follow up on. if there are only 2 suspects, this might instantly solve a case

and practically:

consider being a criminal investigator and suspecting that one of 10 people is an admin of a darknet market. you detect his browser (the tor browser) by XSS on his site and he had it maximized. you now know he has a 1080p monitor.

now you find on social media that at least 3 of

what's this in reference to?

if you're a bayesian then you would much rather know that someone is in the "people with a 1080p monitor" bucket than "person has a monitor" bucket. you can use the former to disambiguate people and not the latter

That is a "terminal goal," and the way they reached it involved a number of "instrumental goals" like getting arrested

Sure, but the reasons why more democrats have passports and global entry would not change.

How many people in rural areas live near an airport where they can get global entry, for example?

Again: this is not a serious proposal, it is a joke. But this still mostly kills the rural vote.

yes the joke is that it's the least acquirable "normal" form of ID to acquire and hence it disproportionately disenfranchises republicans

(context: these are things that, in 2026, suppress the GOP base much more than they suppress the dem base)

TRUE patriots support this bill and think it doesn't go far enough: mandatory passports + global entry to vote.

I am very glad to hear this

My understanding is that there isn't a strict equivalent to this specific group, which makes this sequence of events all the more unfortunate.

because of media ridealongs, it's explained in his other tweets

The tweet is explicitly about how he is finding it difficult to work with people offline.

They literally threatened to arrest me yesterday and literally backed down instantly.

probably 10k or so

i can queue up disk reads on one thread in theory and do a bunch of other, similar things to speed up queries, esp. for cold caches. but that's mostly just engineering. hmph.

that or lying

what the heck!?

i get wall-clock for loading and query a 25 GB dataset (14 GB compressed) equivalent to 55 GB/s with a cold, flushed disk cache on my SSD

1.6 TB/s if I enable the (omp parallel'd w/terrible IO characteristics) and have a marginally warmer disk cache

cold cache performance is what killed me though
