Like you don't predict the weather or a hurricane track with a single model. The NHC uses many.

It's still probablistic, but if multiple models are independently in agreement, then it's at least worth investigating further.

I'm a regular consumer who bought a Dell Precision laptop (which still kicks ass btw, to their credit for all their faults) and they bent over backwards because I purchased through their business side. A shipping delay got me a 100 dollar discount, and another hiccup got me 150 dollars to spend at Dell. Bought a business grade 4K monitor from them that also kicks ass and has imperceptible latency in CS:GO/CS2 with the laptop.

Sometimes even in a bleak corporate world there can be good customer service. It's the exception rather than the rule too often.

...Which I don't get because the Xe driver is said to explicitly support, at minimum, Tiger Lake. I played Minecraft on the iGPU with Xe and it was perfectly fine. It... drew 3D graphics at expected framerates.

Just Trenchbroom and tools like it have more of a Minecraft creative mode simplicity to them, with click and drag snap to grid rapid prototyping of basic level geometry, and even more advanced geometry and details (including creating slopes and cylindrical structures, rafters, vents, general architectural details), than Blender's out of box generic UX presentation intended for all use cases of 3D design.

Put visible light over a really long waveguide and modulate the colors, you invented fiber optic telecommunication.

From a security and freedom perspective, I actually like the restrictions of the Android platform if implemented as Google intended, which means allowing you to roll your own ROM and relock the bootloader with your own keys. Android itself has among the strongest security models for a consumer platform, again if implemented as Google intended (which is why GrapheneOS only supports Pixels). You're actually not supposed to root your phone because that opens up a large attack surface.

It's inconvenient for customization, sure, but you can still wipe the phone and roll your own system. It's a matter of the workflow to do it.

Not just that, but also to rethink how we reinforce them in major waterways or even minor but navigable waterways, if any heavy enough boat can just crash into a support column and take the whole thing down... albeit accidentally in that case.

I think it was the ballot box, the jury box, and then the ammo box? Not that I think something is going to give violently per se or I mean to scaremonger, but it's hard to feel confident about the country's future in my lifetime with everything that's unfolded so far.

It was because a chemical truck crashed apparently, on our drive back home it was still there with specialized hazmat emergency vehicles around.
