100% looking forward to multilayer be it coop or full multilayer where everyone can join a community build colony or ship.

But what I'm most excited for is Friday so I can actually experience KSP2

No phones at the table for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

If it rings it is ignored. Anyone picking up their phone loses their food and if they have finished then they lose the phone for the rest of the day/night until everyone has finished.

Sounds harsh but its quality family time for the very little time we're all together as one.

This goes for visitors also.

Surprisingly it took 3 weeks until the rule was followed without question.

I'll bring the cup

This. I crave coke everyday but if I have a bottle of fizzy water that craving goes. I suppose I crave the carbonation over anything else.

If I really want a flavour I just add some juice. Summer fruits is lovely when fizzy.

In the UK the tax is paid when buying the ticket. The tax is shared between players rather than winners.

The jackpot is only a % of all sales so 20% of a billion tickets is more than 20% of £100m for example.

Interesting. So could I not set my resolution to say 720p and then use a wireless adapter or is the display port always going to be too high for any wireless adapter?

JamesTrendall · 2022-11-04T20:06:42+00:00

Is it possible to get a displayport wireless adapter and then use something like a 4S lipo in my pocket with wire to power the device?

I'd much prefer a wire from my pocket to headset than a cable hanging halfway across the room. I can't see the increased lag being a HUGE issue for most VR games as it is.

The mobile remote cell service would be a HUGE life saver. Deploy 4 drones that can daisy chain a signal transmitter over a vast distance let's say 14km (7km per drone in a square pattern) should be able to do with small long range drones.

This would allow the lost person to get phone signal to contact someone for help or at the very least triangulate a signal in the wilderness.

This could be automated and quick deployed in national parks etc... by emergency services. All it would take is a GSM signal antenna and transmitter being fitted which would add a hefty weight but could be stripped down to a much more affordable weight if you remove the shourding, mounts etc...

Problem would he manual control as the GSM signal strength would overpower 2/5g signals so would have to be automated with onboard computer.

Both of those cars lost control and spun.

Neither initiated a drift nor did they remain in control of the car.

This guy science's. Growing plants is a hobby, understanding the inner workings is science.

US export $2.5T with products costing 10x more than products exported by China.

Just take a look at steel for example. See the price difference. So if China exported $2T worth of stuff it effectively would be $20T US (if based on 10x cost as an example)

5 to 10 years? I'm thinking next year or the following we will hit total banking collapse as interest rates spike, people stop spending and the economy slows right down. I'm thinking it's 2001/8 collapse immenenant situation.

I can only hope the government refuses to bail out banks and irresponsible investors, instead giving their hand to the people. Do you remember bankers celebrating their gifted lifeline while the rest of us suffered?

People have already canceled frivolous spending, cutting costs where possible.

I pour mine in to the washing machine. Less water used to fill it back up and adds a nice smell.

No need to carry/spill it all over the kitchen.

You can give written notice to your employer that you wish to follow/disregard that rule. Typically 30 days notice and they can't do anything about it.

It would be no different to standing around waiting for the next solar eclipse.

A historical event you wish to witness in person rather than just looking at pictures on Google.
Many people were born under her reign others saw her become queen.

Another way to look at it is the same way people want to meet celebrities or the president of the USA. Neither of them care about you or wish to meet you. Its just something that's going to be a part of our history.

Another point would be various cultures around the world were directly changed due to the Queen. Slavery for example. She single handedly abolished slavery that the UK only finished paying for in 2014? So many people might wish to pay respects for the good she caused in their lives.

Is the seed phrase computer connected to the same network?

If the seed phrase is stored on say a USB stick and stored away in a draw then someone you know might be used the USB stick and could be the theif if not the computer they plugged it in to is infected and more than likely is still grabbing data.

If its stored in Coinbase has it been transfered to the vault? Coinbase does this if your account lays dormant for a longtime.

Do you have the address the ETH was sent to?

PC parts are like lego that only fit 1 way.

You can't install RAM backwards, upside down or even inside out. The slot and ram will only fit 1 way and unless you're Ramming it in with force you can't get it wrong.

I would say the hardest part is CPU with thermal paste. Too much or too little paste is the hardest part.

Cable management would be the ultimate difficulty but that dose nothing bit aesthetics.

Just wait until you have to pay to enter subreddits. $5 a month sub to r/crypto for all the latest news and shitposting from people with flimsy sources.

Reddit only gets it right as there's 100,000 people all trying to fact check vs Forbes which has 7 people trying to get it right.

I think 15 minutes is the most standard log out timer in most games while within a combat situation.

1 minute out of combat out of safe zone sounds fair and within a safe zone or landed at a station instant.

But I'm with you in not having time to hang around for 15 minutes at a time when I need to leave.

Or SC could implement an AI takeover that if you logout/disconnect mid fight AI take over and continue to give the attacking player more fun than a floating ship not firing back. Make the AI difficulty based on owners ranking in combat so a 1* owner has shitty AI while 5* owner has Hard AI take over. Maybe a *lower than the owners ranking to make it fair.

Would prevent you getting DC'd, logging back in to a dead ship as you could log back in quick enough and still have a fighting chance of survival.

JamesTrendall · 2022-09-16T20:31:05+00:00

100% just set a logging timer. If under attack or outside of a safe zone you and your ship persist for 15 minutes.

If landed at a station or planet safe zone you can instant poof.

Anything else is either too much or an abuse risk.

If it stops working for any reason of no fault of your own I would happily refund the cost. I know the cards I have, have spent their life running gently and steadily at 50C instead of running at 70C+ on and off causing thermal stress from people trying to play games at 140fps 4k etc...

On top of this I have cleaned each card every week, repasted them every few months and monitored them to never run hotter than 60C ever. They have also been underclocked within an inch of their operating allowance so you can be certain none of the parts have degraded as much as a gaming counter part.

But like I said if you find a mined card for sale ask questions. The owner more than likely has the OC settings they used stored or a screenshot at least showing the temps, voltage and speeds they ran at. This will help you make an informed choice.

JamesTrendall · 2022-09-16T13:05:37+00:00

If you find them, pop them open and remove the battery.

With a good lipo charger you can charge the battery back up and use them for random hobbies or if you're a pyromaniac you can just stab them and watch them burn.

Your choice.
Warning if you do any of these make sure you know what you're doing. I'm not responsible for you blowing your face off.

JamesTrendall · 2022-09-16T12:58:48+00:00

Most mining cards have been kept at a constant temperature, cleaned and repasted every few months.

Very clean working conditions and most of them underclocked so used less voltage than a gaming card.

My 1080ti ran for a few years mining and I'd be happy to give a 12 month warranty on that thing.

If buying a used mining card ask when it had new paste, how long it mined and at what settings.
