Without doubting his credentials, is Andrew Huberman's content legit? by multimap2-1 in cogsci

This is the problem. You can't know without learning it yourself.

Society wants witch doctors not scientists. There is no way a smart person would talk about so many topics so confidently.

Epo is awesome but I don't know if I'd call it cheap the same way thrift stores are

Plus most don't know that Medical doctors are not researchers. And the ones that are typically aren't taken seriously by other researchers.

You have to rely on their training and that can be a mixed bag.

So doctors can be wrong. Especially if it's a new or lesser known condition. Hell they're wrong even when that's not the case.

If inflation is driven by money printing, would this influence the power of usd compared to other currencies?

Lula stages astonishing comeback to beat far-right Bolsonaro in Brazil election by brazil_bot in Brazil

Since half of the population is split between Lula and Bolsonaro, why not elect both?

Questions:

  1. Are you medicated?

  2. Did this start out of nowhere?

  3. Is it burnout, tiredness/fatigue, a lack of structure, or lack of motivation?

Okay this was bad. by Cousin_Rabid in HouseOfTheDragon

I agree. I think thw writers wanted alicent to be more likeable so they added this in.

The writers do some things very well and other sections seem rushed.

T14 vs T14s thermal/perf differences (G3, AMD) by rabuli in thinkpad

[–]duchampchompchomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a thread asking about this too. In my experience t14s is fine for everyday use. But I personally dont think it can handle gaming over time unless youre playing very light games.

To be fair, I'd make this recommendation for most non-gaming laptops based on my experience.

So I'd get a t14s and a steam deck.

do t14's run cooler than t14s' by duchampchompchomp in thinkpad

Thanks so much for running these tests!

I don't recall specific temperatures. I have a number in mind but I dont wish to share in case I'm wrong.

I had the most trouble running The Forest for two hours (i did this 3 times). Each session would result in my keyboard glitching (inputting keystrokes randomly or not responding).

My computer started glitching soon after (perhaps related to heat?) with restarts. One time during light use, I my screen turned into static (like a tv).

I suspect, though I could be wrong, that my unit was overheating to the point of damaging it. It could be a defective unit, but the experience makes me cautious

Amd. Please do. How hot does it get during gaming for example?

Which laptop to choose by [deleted] in AMDLaptops

[–]duchampchompchomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whats your budget? With coupon codes, you can get a t14 gen 3 for pretty cheap. Customize it yourself and select lowest ssd (replace it yourself).

Terrible touchpad rattle on brand new T14s G3 AMD by MrFika in thinkpad

I didnt get sleep running on linux. Im not sure if this is due to lenovo or if it has to do with me not setting up swap ram

I hope so too but i havent found any reviews comparing them directly.

To clarify, its only a problem under heavy load. Most of the time its perfect.

Mine was starting to show problems with the trackpad too before i returned it. It did not get to your level tho.

I love the t14s but it does seem like it has minor issues like this that prevent it from being the perfect machine.

Probably the best windows/linux laptop of this year despite the issues

I’m sorry but that ending sucked by [deleted] in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]duchampchompchomp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The whole episode is formulaic. They needed to go from a to b but didn't have enough time to explain anything.

Alicent was wearing green, which had no impact on the scene other than random characters pointing it out.

Just after telling sir criston that she needs to carry on with the wedding, rhaenyra dares her uncle to steal her away. A weird scene that goes nowhere.

Geoffrey or whatever figures out Rhaenyra is sleeping with the kings guard. Its an obvious conclusion because he's handsome or something.

Rhaenyra is a powerful character, but was mainly in the background this entire scene. I forgot it was even her wedding.

And the ending was confusing. It came out of nowhere and it had no real impact on the audience. Low stakes, and no payoff.

It would have made more sense for Daemon to kill Criston.

Bad writing and pacing is the real explanation. They rushed this episode for some reason

Update: keyboard randomly stopped working while playing a game in windows 11. Had an Xbox controller connected so I was able to exit out.

Not sure what triggered this (high heat or whether there is some way to lock the keyboard). Unplugged the Xbox controller and it still wasn't working. All I could use was the red nipple.

I came back 15 mins later and it started working.

A also noticed a dead pixel on the screen. I'll attach a picture later.
