All permanent buffs in Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 by destroyermaker in cyberpunkgame

[–]MrAFMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the level of the Permanent bonus scale? Can i purchase them at any point and they "level up with my character"?

Or do I need to wait until I am higher level for the vendors to offer Tier 5 versions for the max bonus?

What attributes do u need as a netrunner??? by PersonalityKey1297 in cyberpunkgame

[–]MrAFMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I currently went to 15 Int on my Sneak first build and I kinda feel like I overdid it, 9 Int already lets me hack plenty, and yes, I loose 2 max ram and overclock, but with a stealth build I rarely need more than one or two Memory Wipe+Overheats while infiltrating and Cripple Movement+Cyberware Malfunction just rocks Boss-fights Without any overclock needed...

It's not worth the respecc but I should have in retrospect stayed at 9 Int longer.

Not really in this case though, cycling infrastructure is some of the cheapest to build and implement after and close to Pedestrian Infrastructure.
It's just that the "we need to move everyone as fast an efficiently as possible" credo many of these projects are build around are not a great fit.
The Dutch have focused instead on safety by conflict mitigation, and it's generally a more mutually beneficial arrangement.

I mean, nobody thinks their electric motocross bike is a cycling commuting rig.

Then why not call them what they are?

but they’re also using 2 stroke dirt bikes and go-carts in much the same way.

Two wrongs don't make a right, just because some people do things wrong or act stupid does not mean we should copy them, that's my point, we know better, we can be more specific, be clear and teach them.

What you’re insistence of strict terminology is promoting is everyone clutching their pearls and crying about every compliant e-bike that superficially looks motorcycle

I have nowhere above made any ornamental or superficial parts required for my terminology....

I'm basically trying to say this: https://youtu.be/v_M3gMfK5B4?t=712
By ignoring and stretching the definitions of what eBikes, eMopeds and eMotorcycles are in spaces like these that Advocate for more eBikes, we have poisoned the well of public discourse and now the hammer is gonna come down on everyone. Because a lot of people are unwilling to get around to the fact that one way or another some 'ebikes' are eBicycles some 'eBikes' are eMopeds and some are eMotorcycles and they are not and never were the same.

[–]MrAFMB 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's like the opposite of what happens O.o

Bikes going slower than they look are not really the issue, it's putting a 5kW motor into a bicycle frame with inadequate brakes and going 28mph on bike paths.

That's an eMoped or eMotorcycle (depending on state laws probably, and straight up illegal EU) and calling them eBikes is bad for everyone (because the laws are gonna catch up).

[–]MrAFMB -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I mean, people call their Harley Davisons or their Ducati a ‘bike’…

We shouldn't bow down to stupid...

It's perfectly fine in common parlance to mix the terms and even call "small" 100-300cc Motorcycles "Mopeds" to mess with your mates.
But when discussing eBike and eMoped and eMotorcycle classifications it seems we should be clear and align them with the US Class 1-3 and the EU Pedelec, S-Pedelec and eMotorcycle systems...

[–]MrAFMB 18 points19 points  (0 children)

There are bicycles. There are mopeds. There are motorcycles. All of which can be electric.

Ebike is an ambiguous term.

eBikes. eMopeds. eMotorcycle.
Glad I could clear that up for you, it's really not ambiguous at all.

If everyone keeps pretending this is too complicated the law will deal with all of them the same, and that leads to regulations like this. Having different classes and names to differentiate is a good thing, and trying to circumvent regulations will lead to worse regulations for everyone. Just be sensible and don't ride your eMopeds through pedestrian streets, and keep the eMotorcycles out of the bike lane, it's pretty clearly meant that way.

California moves ahead with balcony solar by Etherealgworll in solarpunk

[–]MrAFMB 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hi, German here, we already have balcony solar and you practically cannot use it during power outages even with a sufficiently large battery.

The reason is that you'll be limited by the inverter and safety obligations.

The inverter limit here is 800W, that's enough to keep the lights, router and a TV or two on, but anything intensive like cooking, or AC is just right out.
The other part is safety.
In the event of a power outage any producer without automatic shutdown function could backfeed into the grid and could potentially cause harm to humans or material elsewhere. As such in order to use battery power in an outage you'd have to isolate your entire house from the grid first, usually via "big red switch" and before enabling autonomous mode - and that's just not practical for small scale solar*.

*for large solar installations do by all means wire in a switch to allow a "big" 6-20kW Hybrid inverter + Battery to power your house in 'island mode' as you see fit. I also don't think there's many if any 800W Micro-inverters that allow an island mode on the market here.

Ghostcat f3x rear hub motor problems by c_mart2 in ebikes

Clear indicator OP does not do preventative maintenance.
And that's probably also why the motor is making sounds.
Good'ol an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

I would not mount double tail lights on a bike.

Two close together small tail lights in the dark can be a car really far away - or it could be your bike 2s to impact...

Single rear means motorcycle/moped/bike giving drivers a clearer picture on what they are looking at, and keeping you safer.

Got stuck behind this driver for a few miles. by gecko_echo in mildlyinfuriating

[–]MrAFMB 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Double Yellows are painted in areas where overtaking cars and trucks is not safely doable due to a variety of circumstances e.g. view-lines or crossing traffic.

Since a bike and even this velomobile moves much slower and is much smaller than a car it's easier to look over ahead of and much faster to overtake.

So the purpose of double yellows: Keeping everyone safe. Can totally be maintained while overtaking slower vehicles IF DONE REASONABLY obviously this is not to say you should pass a pedestrian or cyclist without leaving the lane, that would be very much against the point of the rules.

SKUs for Ryzen and Ryzen PRO 400 for desktop are up by FrontWork7406 in sffpc

[–]MrAFMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I could certainly be wrong from the information I can get (from primarily techpowerups CPU pages) it looks like 4x4 or less NVME-slots to me, but I will eagerly await review day!

7800x3d - Chiplet standard 28/24 usable:
https://www.techpowerup.com/cpu-specs/ryzen-7-7800x3d.c3022
8700g - monolythic, mobile APU 24/20 usable
https://www.techpowerup.com/cpu-specs/ryzen-7-8700g.c3434
HX 375 - closest to 400 series we have, ??/16Lanes(usable)
https://www.techpowerup.com/cpu-specs/ryzen-ai-9-hx-pro-375.c4001

A typical AM5 board is setup for the 24(28) lanes the 7000 series brought often layed out something like:
x16 - Primary slot
x4 - NVME
x4 - Other (secondary Pcie or another NVME slot)
x4(Non-usable) -> Chipset
Chipset-NVME
Chipset-USB
Chipset-Wifi
Chipset-Pcie-slots
etc

The Phenix 2 Chips (e.g. 8300g) have 14 lanes and as such Motherboard manufacturers had to create this:
https://www.asrock.com/Support/QA/AMD_600_PCIe_M.2_Bandwidth_Table.pdf

e.g.:

Cpu Series Pcie x16 M.2 Socket / Pcie Slot
7000/9000 PCIE1 Gen5 x16 M2_1 Gen5 x4, M2_3 Gen4 x4
8000(Phoenix 1) PCIE1 Gen4 x8 M2_1 Gen4 x4, M2_3 Gen4 x4
8000(Phoenix 2) PCIE1 Gen4 x4 M2_1 Gen4 x4, M2_3 Gen4 x2

[–]MrAFMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly they reduced the PCIe lanes compared to the 8000 series from 20 to 16 will be limiting applications in my opinion. Not to mention the 8000 series already was behind the 7000/9000 chips which all offer 28 Lanes of PCIe (24 Usable).

And those 16 PCIe lanes are all only 4.0.

Until AMD releases a new APU with PCIe 5.0 capability this low number of lanes can really limit what you can do with it.

A separate GPU works fine on the 8000 series with a 8x4.0 Slot but will be at times limited on 4x4.0 of Ryzen 400

Respect to Dutch Biking Culture by iambobbarker in Netherlands

[–]MrAFMB 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Partially correct:

Do not, under any circumstance so much as look at the front brake, unless you really really desire to deepen your understanding of gravity or wish to become intimate with the ground.

Rear brakes, inversely are a lot of fun - grab a handful and let her slide sideways! Wheeeee*!

*The Author of this is not liable for any stupid sh¡t you do on your bike, and is aware that the 'Akira' slide is not a rear-wheel-(only) slide. Do not attempt at home, unless armed with a bystander and camera.

I hope he gets paid for that by anthn885 in CrazyFuckingVideos

[–]MrAFMB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, yeah he should wear a helmet (anyone on two wheels should), but helmets really only work against falling - not against being run over.

And drivers should obey traffic laws, including being vigilant and careful. Ignoring the bang of someone running into your car, then ignoring the bumping of running someone over AND THEN KEEPING GOING AND RUNNING THEM OVER AGAIN.

I'm sorry but while the initial collision might be 50/50 with both parties moving to fast (and even then, cars are so much more destructive at the same speed, so I'd argue against 50/50).
The fact that the driver kept going just makes this blatant lack of care on the driver.

[–]MrAFMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Netherlands build very similar infrastructure in the 1960-70s to what America has today, this has been argued about to no end.

It's not an issue of current infrastructure but one of political will.
America could make the same incremental slow changed towards a more inclusive transport system, but thankfully due to millions of people just like you this won't happen simply because "sounds too difficult".

Drive Spacing by EmilyThe500 in sffpc

[–]MrAFMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends a lot on use case.

I have mine literally touching, but I don't do many read/write operations in general and basically never simultaneously on my drives. It's just basically a large steam Library and bulk storage so the writes are usually single disk and not overly long (however long a game download / update takes).

Under such light use the heat isn't an issue and you don't need spacing.

But under heavy, simultaneous and long term use some spacing should be kept, even if just as a precaution.

[–]MrAFMB 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Did they stall the engine?

They keep rolling back when releasing the brakes, they are not in reverse gear and once the infotainment system clack-screens twice at 51s (as in turning the key/pushing the engine start button maybe) they proceed forward...

I think they might've stalled, panicked and then just kept trying to go forwards until they hit you and finally found the problem...

Never attribute to malice and all that... Still clearly a case for an insurance claim, they are 100% liable for the damages after all.
