But it never seemed worth caring or worrying about

And that’s exactly why they want to stop it

Leaded is objectively better for everything except health/pollution. Which is the point of RoHS.

Leaded solder has a lower melting point, flows much better, easier to visually see bad solder joints, and doesn’t form whiskers. Also less brittle, so cracked joints are less likely.

Fumes don’t contain lead, it’s not nearly hot enough. Those fumes are flux burning.

Lead free sucks ass and you can pry my leaded solder from my cold dead hands.

Seriously just wash your hands.

Put it on the parents. That’s enforceable, and the root of the problem…

Yeah, that probably sounds so unintuitive and weird to anyone who has never worked with RF.

But, but, AI!

Worst-case ontario

Passed with flying carpets

It’s not rocket appliances

It’s just water outta the fridge

That’s so janky lol

It’s a fair metric IMO.

We typically judge super computers in FLOPS, floating-point-operations/sec.

We don’t take into account any of the compute power required to keep it powered, keep it cool, operate peripherals, etc., even if that is happening in the background. Heck, FLOPs doesn’t even really measure memory, storage, power, number of cores, clock speed, architecture, or any other useful attributes of a computer.

This is just one metric.

Shit. I better donate.

AI isn’t going to train itself!

And the reddit hug of death issue…

Imagine letting an unpaid position on social media “make life hell”

Announce you’re a time traveler sent back…

Super useful when I have a half-baked idea or concept that I want to learn more about, but don’t know the lingo. I can explain the idea and it’ll give me terms to search.

Also, it gives pretty good ideas for debugging or potential fixes.

Not sure i’d ever “trust with my life”, but it’s a useful tool if you use it right.

It really is that simple. I wouldn’t chose it over wired, but it’s still pretty good. You’re going to beat the latency of satellites every time.

If you’re on a boat… fair enough.

Otherwise, look into WISPs… Wireless Internet Service Providers. Great for rural areas, the infrastructure is point-to-point radios, so it’s super easy to go large distances without the cost of fiber or copper cables.

Best part is, if you have any neighbors that are interested, they’ll often give you a discount if you let them put a sector antenna on your barn/silo. Or they can also erect a short tower if you let them too.

If there aren’t any in your immediate area, reach out to ones nearby. They’re always looking to expand.
