Come on, obviously they knew what pipes were in the 1940s. They are cylinders made of lead.

A literal answer to the title question. I like it. What charger did you have and was it covered under warranty?

The Tesla chargers – do they live up to their reputation for being reliable? Or are they also unreliable, but Tesla puts so many chargers at each location that you can always find a working one?

From what I’ve heard that’s not true of Tesla though. My car will be able to use their superchargers starting next year. I hope they remain reliable.

I don’t see an article link.

Google Bard can do this. I showed it a picture of my garage and asked for suggestions on how to organize it better.

Note that it will not work with images that contain people.

A fascinating alternative is “a pressurized ETFE membrane… periodically anchored to the ground by steel cables.”

In plain language: Fiber-reinforced rip-stop ETFE (a thin, strong, light, transparent material used for yacht sails) is used to make a roof and walls with the area under it pressurized and anchored using very tall cables, hundreds of meters high or more, to create a sky. The covered area is huge, the size of a city, compartmentalized for redundancy. People are able to go about their daily lives without use of space suits and it doesn’t feel like you are “inside”.

Domes are over-rated

Is that basically the premise of NixOS?

They’re just repackaging AltaVista results.

Cute.

So these appear to be actual Lego sets, not a game like Lego Star Wars, Lego Marvel or whatever. I’d love to see a Nintendo-platform Lego Animal Crossing game.

Doesn’t it vary quite a bit by province?

MKBHD was using mmWave. When 5G first came out, most news stories talked about it being “10 times faster” and that it had a short range, so phone companies would have to put transmitters on every light pole. All of which is true for ultra-wideband/mmWave.

What those stories missed was that UWB/mmWave isn’t the common 5G. Most 5G is mid-band or low-band, which uses regular towers and has a range of miles. As of 2021, latest data I could find, less than 1% of users were on mmWave.

You may be thinking of ultra-wideband, a very fast but extremely rare variant of 5G that only works over short ranges and requires you to be in sight of the transmitter. This is available in some parts of some stadiums, although Verizon tries hard to make it seem like it’s everywhere.

Normal 5G, such as the midband frequencies that T-Mobile often uses, covers a several-mile radius.

There are very few manuals still sold in the US. The holdouts are ultra-budget models or pretentious sports cars. I can count on one hand the number of people I know who can drive manual.

I can drive one because my dad had an ultra-budget hatchback that I learned on, and later I had one of those pretentious sports cars, which I swapped for something more practical when I had kids. Age: old enough to have kids.

I doubt swiping is faster than touch typing but I get what you mean. Sometimes you just want to swipe on a physical keyboard or Ctrl-F something in the real world.

There is no one right temperature — it depends on the humidity. In the winter I often have heat at 71. In the summer 68.
