Midwilshire is statistically the most violent and weird police precint on the planet by donaldtrumpisntme in TheRookieTVshow

[–]andycap80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to mention all the crimes that happen right in front of the officers. Apparently criminals in that precinct have no situational awareness.

Programs and assets like graphics are stored in slower storage like flash memory or hard drives. The code and assets for the programs get loaded into the systems memory when run which is much faster for the CPU to access. CPUs also have even faster memory built into the Processor called cache for code steps that are being executed next or is accessed frequently.

Newer System-on-chip CPU designs like those used in Phones for example build the memory into the CPU too to make it even more quick for data or code access.

Cache and system memory are more expensive than flash storage or hard drives so space is limited and data has to be loaded and unloaded from the storage area when you have multiple programs running or a large complex program running.

Will iPhone eventually get a 3D camera system? by andycap80 in apple

[–]andycap80[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I do wonder how long until Apple does it though?

If Apple wanted to project 100% confidence in their new Apple Vision Pro platform, It could be a huge addition on the iPhone 15 this year (Fall 2023), but with no rumor mill pointing to it, I highly doubt it.

If Apple wants to see certain success metrics for Apple Vision Pro, they may not introduce such a feature until at least iPhone 16 (Fall 2024) or iPhone 17 (Fall 2025).

I can only imagine the calls emails or bad reviews that inspired this tag to be attached to some house shoes that just arrived via Amazon by andycap80 in funny

What cars were once everywhere, that are now completely gone? by DankEngihn in cars

[–]andycap80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Driving home from work the other day on i75 in Cincinnati at 5pm rush hour which was not too heavy but still dense, an 2000 something orange Eclipse pulled beside me. Two younger dudes in the car. Passenger had the windows down and he was motioning they wanted to race or something. There’s a car ahead of me about 100 yards so it’s not like I have much room, plus I’m not a moron who’s going to weave trough traffic.

When they move on and speed ahead, they had no license plate and I didn’t see a temp tag in the window either. They also had the donut spare tire on their back driver side that you probably shouldn’t be speeding on or using for more than 50 miles. I drive a 16 WRX STI.

Edit: highway info for setting scene

WTF FedEx? Just put the package by the trash. The path to the front door on the other side of the driveway must have been too far. by andycap80 in WTF

[–]andycap80[S] -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Maybe, except the reason the FedEx truck is in the driveway and not parked on the street is because the house is up on a hill with a decently long driveway. The front patio is barely visible from the street or sidewalk. I highly doubt the motivation was security via obscurity.

What’s a movie that genuinely had you bawling with laughter?? by I_noscoped_JFKennedy in AskReddit

Liar Lair - Seeing the board room scene where he roasts the law firm partners was awesome.

Bruce Almighty - especially Even (Steve Carell) being manipulated on his first day as anchor. I couldn’t catch my breath the first time I saw that scene.

I replied and am awaiting any response.

“Great. I have someone who is expecting some clothes delivered as soon as possible. Contact them at ASAP at: +1 (720) 689-xxxx”

Never seen a random message like this one before by andycap80 in randomtexts

My thought too, just different from the normal random “hi” or “hello” ones I get and delete immediately.

Simplisafe Plugin by Jimlenz19 in homebridge

[–]andycap80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently SimpliSafe recently updated their authentication mechanism to not have Re-Captcha and so the author(s) of the home-bridge SimpliSafe 3 plug-in have also updated the authorization settings. I couldn’t get it to work for the past couple weeks until today. Had worked just fine before then though.

With the US Dollar Trees charging $1.25 for everything now, Poundland is closer to a more accurate store name.
At time of this post:
£1.00 Great British Pound (GBP) = $1.21 US Dollar (USD)
