They clearly did, if this is that much faster than dmg then they fucked up with dmg.

Nothing I wrote makes it even seem like I'm confused about that, except to people who are confused by mice with more than one button.

Yes, I read the fine summary. Some of us do that.

What was it about the implementation of dmg that made it so much slower, and why did apple think it was okay?

There are really two parts of a vaguely modern vehicle that are attacked by the results of using ethanol fuel, fuel pumps and the injection equipment whether that's a carburetor or a fuel injector. Those parts have steel bits, including jets or nozzles, and the ethanol draws water in from the atmosphere and then it evaporates. That leads to corrosion of these parts.

Ethanol is a potential problem for hoses and seals, but this is only usually an issue for much older vehicles and the fix is pretty easy, except where carburetors are involved. Then they need to be re-sealed, and if there's not a kit available, that requires making new seals on a laser cutter. And those are still moderately expensive.

The fuel isn't the problem. Basing ethanol production on topsoil is the problem.

Sandia NREL proved in the 1980s you can grow algae economically in open raceway ponds, and you don't even need to add algae. The air will do it for you, and the most efficient algae to produce at your latitude and in your local conditions will outcompete other strains so you will automatically get the most beneficial species for production in your location.

The focus at the time was for lipids for biodiesel production. But you could as easily produce ethanol. Or more intelligently, you would make butanol using the ABE process, which also produces some acetone and some ethanol. Octane can be adjusted by mixing the butanol and the acetone. The ethanol can be used as an industrial solvent, far away from fuel systems, where it draws in water.

This is closely related to what I said when we discussed this last time: When I went to college, I was required to apply for financial aid, which means doing the FAFSA. This pushes ID verification off onto the federal government.

They're just getting ready for the war between the USA'n'SRs vs Europe.

Some of us have always wanted smart glasses. But we also want them to not be crap. I have pretty limited requirements for the graphics capabilities, but it does include overlay. But they also need to be in basically the same form factor as ordinary glasses, and they have to not be under the control of someone who's going to piss me off all the time showing me a lot of sponsored fuckery, and any processing has to be done on a device on my person and not someone else's computer. And I really don't want to be around other people who are streaming video to teh cloud 24/7, either.

What we're going to get will be very different from that description for the foreseeable future.

It doesn't matter where the cluster is located, if you don't own it then you have the same issues with your data on someone else's systems. If you're going to load it into someone else's rolling DC, you might as well load it into someone's remote DC. Then nobody has to drive the DC around.

"Don't put China and North Korea into the same basket. Both claim to be communist, neither one is."

Don't say they are the same, that's my job!

Debian offers both things, but I am using nvidia so Wayland won't work even as well as it can work, which is not as well as X11.

I expect to get an error explaining something about why a program failed, even if it's not very informative. Any program which cannot manage that is crap, and I should not have to go out of my way to get some kind of error either.

I will just keep using zoom in the browser when I have to use it, which is thankfully infrequent.

That's literally the whole idea behind all of this software, though. They just forgot somehow.

If they are signing contracts that don't let them service the equipment when they can't get a tech, and if the equipment is so fragile and complicated that you can't use it without fucking it up, then multiple people fucked up badly and at multiple points. And just to head it off, I don't want to hear any ignorant fiddle-faddle about "these are complicated devices" blah blah blah which is all over this thread. No they fucking are not. They are ovens. There is no fucking oven used for food rather than aerospace grade carbon fiber that needs more intelligence than you can get for two fiddy from aliexpress. It doesn't matter how many timers it has, how many fans it has to operate, how many zones it has, or how many energy sources it can run on, an oven is basic fucking shit compared to other systems on the ship that they can service. There is no excuse for the level of incompetence and/or malfeasance that created this situation and it is absolutely incomprehensible why anyone would want to invent one solely to juggle the balls of some corporation not even named in the article.

How can you possibly defend such an indefensible and most likely born of corruption type of decision with some completely irrelevant horseshit about the vendor can blame you for things? The military doesn't give one tenth of one fuck, it's not their money and they never pass an audit and congress just keeps giving them more, they can be told that because they worked on it when they needed to get some meals out that they will need an entire oven and they will shrug and sign the PO.

Nobody is going to reward you

poor wittwe baby doesn't wike facts

Unless they have done some very basic mathematics and figured out that they're going to need more power in the future, that is.

As we have just established, you are a fursuit kind of guy.

When did you start learning English anyway, Ivan?
