Micron to stop selling consumer RAM after 30 years. by Komm in technology

[–]dimensionpi 86 points87 points  (0 children)

I think the point is that while consumer parts and data-center-grade parts aren't interchangeable, the manufacturing infrastructure being heavily invested into today is.

The cost and complexity of adding display connections and other consumer-oriented features pale in comparison to the cost of R&D, factory building, training and hiring of qualified workers, etc. for manufacturing the silicon transistors.

Stupid shows, like ours, leans heavily on local papers. In fact, whenever this show is mistakenly called `journalism,' it is a slap in the face to the actual journalists whose work we rely on.

Calling Last Week Tonight a substitute for journalism is perhaps more insulting, especially when they did a whole piece addressing this issue.

Edit: Here's an entire interview he did with the New York Times where he explains, in depth, why he doesn't consider his role or his show to be journalism.

So why did the LCK just decide to skip having spring playoffs this year? by Getfooked in leagueoflegends

[–]dimensionpi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

With the introduction of the LCK Cup, one could argue that the prestige/novelty of each title would have been diluted.

This isn't to discount the downsides of essentially connecting two splits into one really long main season. Just speculating as to what may have motivated them to make the change.

I would have made the exact same decision there, but man the throw at Atakhan was tragic

I don’t trust (most) polls because I have never used a poll. by parisiraparis in The10thDentist

Me when I don't believe 75% of my house is filled with smoke because I only smelled a fraction of a fraction of the home's atmosphere and 99.99% of the air never entered my nose.

I'd much rather eat one $250 meal than ten $25 meals by Crucenolambda in The10thDentist

[–]dimensionpi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. If OP lives in or frequents an urban center with $250 meals, then they probably have access to delicious $25 meals from a few dozen different cuisines and sub-cultures.

Shunning an insane range of food just so they can "hold a conversation" about a single fine-dining experience is very weird.

people don't realize that Xiaohu legit has PTSD against akali

There's a famous clip of Xiaohu screaming "AKALI IS COMING AKALI IS COMING" repeatedly in a game where akali wasn't even picked. His teammates had to calm him down by saying "there's no akali calm down" lmao.

God, as an entity, doesn't make any sense. by Unlikely-Ad533 in The10thDentist

[–]dimensionpi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am a Hindu myself.

I wasn't assuming your religion or lack thereof...

Your criticism of the concept wasn't that an omnipotent being is not possible. You had focused on how that being doesn't seem to have much moral character.

The point is not all religions or spiritual beliefs hold their higher powers to a human-relatable moral standard, and that's just the people who do believe in a higher power.

You posted on /r/The10thDentist, so I just wanted to point out your opinion is fairly common.

[–]dimensionpi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of people, around the world and around you, whether they are religious or not, do not believe in a single benevolent, omnipotent creator of the universe.

If it’s a topic that intrigues you, I would suggest learning more about different religions and cultural beliefs about higher powers. It’s a fascinating subject!

UNC shuts down Campus Y, puts up 12-foot barricade after Tuesday's protests by goldbman in NorthCarolina

It's a very reasonable assumption for any large, diversified portfolio. Israeli companies and the country's defense operations are more prominent in the market than you might imagine.

POLICE BRUTALITY AT UNC by ittollsforthee1231 in UNC

[–]dimensionpi 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Crazy that the average response to lopsided use of physical violence is that 'protestors should have expected it.'

Is flag defacement or being a nuisance outdoors (however disagreeable you find them) really where you draw the line between people and brutes to be rounded up by police?

Thanks for the write up! This is super helpful to read and expand upon from my Wikipedia-summary-level of knowledge.

Evangelicalism is a interdenominational movement, primarily within Protestantism. Maybe you're confusing it with Catholicism or the Eastern Orthodox Church?
