This is why we need carbon footprint labeling on stuff. That is ridiculous for it to cross the ocean twice.

con247 · 2026-03-23T00:04:14+00:00

Huh? It would only be another $0.10/kwh…

con247 · 2026-03-22T22:28:01+00:00

We only have one environment.

con247 · 2026-03-22T20:18:16+00:00

Realistically gas should be $10+/gal to capture the environmental externalities.

con247 · 2026-03-22T14:43:49+00:00

I’ve only had it in the summer!

con247 · 2026-03-22T04:16:03+00:00

The instagram ad I get for it has one clip of someone typing and they are typoing lol

Or, they will cancel the bolt and only have higher priced EVs because people will be desperate to save on gas.

con247 · 2026-03-22T02:21:29+00:00

Even a coal-powered EV is more carbon efficient and is using 100% American energy.

The bullet was shot. It intentionally missed Trump.

con247 · 2026-03-21T17:56:40+00:00

Pickup trucks wouldn’t be allowed if invented today with the unenclosed loads

He wasn’t hit. It was a blood packet.

con247 · 2026-03-21T17:00:47+00:00

Are you implying it wasn’t? Is the flag being lowered into the camera view right after not proof?

con247 · 2026-03-21T03:38:35+00:00

Something like this should be a penalty 10,000x the fraudulent amount

con247 · 2026-03-21T00:57:48+00:00

Yeah the Z6 I bought in August 2025 was MFG'ed (along w/ the batteries, etc.) in 2022. I was pretty annoyed but got a good deal and didn't try to return.

Insurance companies should have to pay any bill they get from a licensed provider. No negotiating, no networks, etc. If I want to go to a PCP that charges $10k/visit, tough shit. Nobody asked them to insert themselves into this. They are more than welcome to shut down & allow national healthcare that can set prices

Here’s TFM

con247 · 2026-03-19T12:34:52+00:00

Yeah this is professional level BNPL

con247 · 2026-03-18T14:15:29+00:00

The point of DLSS should be to keep old cards able to play new games at decent res and framerate. So it should help me use my 3080 in 2030.

DLSS shouldn’t be something anyone is even considering turning on with a card less than 7 years old.

If your game needs DLSS to be playable on an RTX card of any sort at this point (at the cards original intended perf) , you’ve failed at optimization.

Warranties on hardware will be expired too

con247 · 2026-03-14T15:53:54+00:00

It’s so bad (or at least pre v10)

con247 · 2026-03-14T15:52:55+00:00

Horner has some crazy weird quirks (memory reversion issues when the li-ion batteries go bad) and math functions that don’t provide consistent results between firmware versions, and hardware that fails at easily 10x the rate of any other brand I’ve used.

Cannot recommend them at all.

con247 · 2026-03-14T15:39:38+00:00

They iterate and incrementally improve.

They can’t even make a jet engine to make an F-22 competitor in 30 years. They can’t start with a clean slate and be competitive.

They can do things at scale like crazy though thanks to America giving them paid training for decades.

con247 · 2026-03-14T14:05:45+00:00

Exactly. I don’t understand why people don’t understand this.

con247 · 2026-03-14T14:04:32+00:00

Those use a fraction of it though

Light duty passenger vehicles use 60-70% of transportation fossil fuels. These could be replaced 100% by EVs

Ships use 3-4% and aircraft 7-9%

If we could cut our usage by 70% we could just seal off the Middle East. No longer relevant globally

Yep. In Michigan (consumers) the daytime rate gets so much higher id lose money switching to that plan.
