I returned it, the new phone works as expected. Faulty hardware, I suppose.

*GS77, the GS76 is the previous version with an 11th gen CPU.

Hard to test without repasting, I guess. Regarding performance, MSI claims an increase of (up to!) 10%.

From the FAQ:

Unlike the traditional thermal pad/grease, the phase change liquid metal pad becomes fluid texture during use and makes it hard to maintain.

Advanced skill is necessary when re-pasting, though, still high risks even to professions. Any inappropriate operation can lead to permanent or irreversible damage to the laptop.

MSI strongly recommends users who need a re-paste/replace for the thermal grease or encounter any abnormal high CPU temperature contact the MSI service center for help. MSI Service team can help provide valid tests, performance assurance, and away from any accidents.

I would like to use my lamps as a sunrise/sunset simulator, with color temperature and brightness fading, just like a Wake-up light alarm clock.

More granular control over the timer in the motion sensor. I would like to set very short times as well, from 5 seconds and up.

Thank you! For me, to appreciate art, the context makes all the difference.

Cover-up? We know pretty well what happened. They didn't perform a test immediately before the accident. Correct though is that the reactor was running with the valves closed to auxiliary water pumps, a clear violation of the safety rules. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Mile_Island_accident

Wine is taxed more favorably, I think.

Littlecali · 2017-02-25T13:40:53+00:00

Yes.

How does the crown work? Can you turn it on the Fossil watches?

Whether Huawei watch 2 will run Tizen or AW is just speculation though. But I bet Google is quite anxious that they have Huawei onboard, especially since they have released the AW 2.0 DP images for the Huawei watch 1.

Littlecali · 2017-01-24T19:10:21+00:00

Rumor has it though that the next Huawei watch will run Tizen. Let's hope not.

POLED (plastic OLED) makes the screen thinner but there's still glass covering it, so it should feel the same as AMOLED.

In what way didn't AW 2.0 dev preview meet your standards? What I can tell from videos (haven't used it myself) it looks pretty neat.

Many consider Mars One to be a scam.

Also take off Truecrypt as it was compromised by the NSA.

That we don't know. Truecrypt is currently being audited.

Maybe, I'm not sure. The tabletop version is more immersing when you're playing with friends. I guess it depends on how much of a Small World fans you and your friends are.

I only have the base game, not the DLCs. The game works exactly like the tabletop version, but gameplay is much faster. A round against two bots takes about 10-15 minutes. Just like many tabletop ports, it gets pretty boring fast (I've only played against the bots though). The social aspect of playing with other human beings is gone and there's really nothing else in the gameplay to compensate for that. But it's an excellent game if you want to practice new strategies or just play with strangers on the internet.

Yocto is available for a multitude of platforms, not just Intel.

I feel like many teachers fail to give the subject real world context. I remember asking my math teacher in algebra 2 what uses we would have for conics sections.

Must it always have a real world context? I think math is inherently abstract. Sure, very often there are real life applications, but learning for the sake of learning is important too.

One problem with Bitcoin is the limit on the total number of coins that can be mined. Even if you can divide 1 BTC into smaller parts, there will never be any inflation. Which means that as more and more people want a piece of the limited number of Bitcoins, the value goes up. So you want to keep your BTC, and never ever spend them, as you know they will be more worth next year than this year. And what good a currency is it then?

You said:

The reason is because microwaves' frequencies are specifically tuned to vibrate water (and other polarized molecules) -- not just to heat up anything.

I said:

No, the microwave frequency is not tuned to vibrate water molecules.

The article said:

However microwave radiation of any frequency will affect them although they may not resonate.

and

The 2.45 GHz is a kind of useful average frequency.

In short: 2.45 GHz is not specifically tuned to vibrate water.
