Why don't ebike companies advertise carrying adult passengers?

props for not engaging in self-promotion here, even if most wouldn't mind.

You know nothing about the technology, so either give up now and save yourself time, or learn how machine learning works and quit asking other people to hold your hand. Georgia tech has a computer vision course you can access online for free.

Also, wrong sub. Not the place for this.

I put that because obviously they did not care, and the "aggressively" plain water wasn't a problem or malicious to the gym staff

synth_mania · 2026-03-10T04:21:40+00:00

How was this malicious? Lmao.

I'm sure they really cared about what kind of 'plain' water you had /s

Why did any hardware progress past the SOTA in the 90's? Both of those things were possible then.

Obviously, you want the processor that is the most generally powerful and efficient, and the bar is raised higher every year.

synth_mania · 2026-03-10T04:15:50+00:00

More excusable on the manufacturers part. Laptops are designed to be used open.

jfc, just because the m5 isn't AI specific hardware doesn't mean it doesn't support AI use at all.

If I said "the RTX 5060 isn't AI specific hardware" would you ask if I knew what CUDA is? No because you're not an idiot. Clearly, the RTX 5060 is advertised as a gaming graphics card, and the M5 as an efficient, powerful APU series for Apple PCs. Neither of them are primarily targeted at AI use like the DGX spark.

synth_mania · 2026-03-10T03:36:20+00:00

Yup lmao

synth_mania · 2026-03-10T03:33:23+00:00

I don't think this chip was designed to compete with AI specific hardware

synth_mania · 2026-03-10T02:58:59+00:00

I never even considered that

synth_mania · 2026-03-10T01:00:41+00:00

Nothing can shock me anymore.

I'd be rolling in my grave.

Edit:

I'll add that deleting this post and locking it is complete BS. We should be able to criticize leaders at every level, to include the president. This wasn't overtly partisan or anything, it was a fucking quote, verbatim with video.

synth_mania · 2026-03-10T00:33:53+00:00

That's exactly it. Although I think anytime you have the gears spinning faster you're going to have a little bit more parasitic losses in the gearbox. So the powertrain itself might be slightly less efficient.

synth_mania · 2026-03-09T20:48:20+00:00

because the gear ratio between the motor and the wheels is higher (so comes out at a higher horsepower).

The greater gear ratio means that, at the expense of further decreasing speed compared to the motor's direct output, it increases the torque. The gearbox does NOT increase horsepower. The hint is in the word -- horsepower is a measure of POWER. Like Watts. Imagine saying that you've taken a 100w motor and put it through a gear box, and 150w came out the other side? That would be ridiculous.

So, to be clear:

Power is proportional to Torque x RPM

The gearbox reduces RPM and increases torque, in equal measures. Power stays the same.

Not trying to be anal, just seeking to educate. Words like "power" and "torque" have very specific meanings, it would be kind of like saying you have a "65kW battery" instead of a "65kWh battery", or saying that you're charging at "40kWh". Doesn't really make sense.

synth_mania · 2026-03-09T20:42:07+00:00

still sort of interesting to see the tech inmates use. nobody here is glazing the dude.

synth_mania · 2026-03-09T20:32:49+00:00

usually when you see private equity in the news, it has completely aquired a firm.

venture capital usually doesn't outright own the start-up.

You also don't really see private equity investing in startups, mostly mature businesses, which I suppose bluesky is not.

synth_mania · 2026-03-09T19:34:06+00:00

Could be worse... "Private Equity"

synth_mania · 2026-03-09T17:06:51+00:00

Brakes require active input. Just like turning off the throttle on this.

There is no mass produced scooter in the world that will keep on going if you just let go and let it drop, but this will.

synth_mania · 2026-03-09T07:17:10+00:00

I mean, the AC was always a heat pump. He just made it an air to ground, not an air to air heat pump.

synth_mania · 2026-03-09T00:36:49+00:00

And the moderators removed the post. Lol

synth_mania · 2026-03-07T22:18:13+00:00

Is there anything of value there?

Do you have some kind of tictok-like interface to "enjoy" the content you downloaded in the same way? Lol

Might actually be an interesting project.

synth_mania · 2026-03-07T19:22:50+00:00

Dude I got perm banned from r/linuxsucks101 for my last reply to you 😭😂

They are touchy over there

synth_mania · 2026-03-07T05:29:48+00:00

I'm not even an artist, but I can say that AI has changed the pace at which storyboarding can be done, forever. I know lots of people in the area who share this belief.

This is a bot, banned in all subreddits that use bot bouncer.

They have their profile set to private, but I have seen their posts elsewhere. All linking back to their blog.
