No, the ram is integrated into the CPU.

I’ve tried many different beers. Loved some, hated others. I do not drink Budweiser, I drink Canadian and European beer.

I’ve never had a beer in my life that tasted better when warm. If I want a warm drink I’ll drink coffee or tea.

Ice cream also tastes a lot stronger when warm. I doubt many people prefer warm ice cream.

I much prefer smaller beer cans (330ml or 355ml) over the 500ml and up. I find that I do not drink a beer fast enough for the large can. Having the last 1/3 of the beer be warm and flat is a major turn off!

This is what he originally wanted to do. My guess is that the engineers said it ain’t gonna happen.

If you disconnect a big part of the grid then you end up with way too much power being produced for the rest of the grid. If you aren’t able to shut down generators in time then you can severely damage the equipment on the grid and cause cascading failures that take down the entire grid.

One major outage I remember was the 2003 Northeast Blackout. I recall having to barbecue dinner for a couple of days while waiting for power to be restarted. Had to spend a lot of time outside because the indoor heat was brutal without air conditioning!

I think that’s mostly narcissism. But moreover, right now he’s acting against American Empire. He’s taking actions to isolate and diminish the USA. By abandoning alliances the US worked so hard to build, Trump is handing power to authoritarian enemies such as Russia and China.

We don’t have PR yet. When the NDP or any of the other “3rd parties” gain big, it splits the left wing vote which results in a win for the conservatives.

To be fair to Donny, he doesn’t have ideology either. All he has is his own narcissism.

There’s no policy consistency whatsoever from Trump’s first term to his second term. The free trade agreements that he is now so unceremoniously dumping by imposing tariffs are the very same ones HE signed during his first term!

Trump has no plan whatsoever. He just flies by the seat of his pants and licks the boots of the biggest authoritarian assholes he can find (Musk and Putin).

Sure, if you can pass the environmental requirements. And of course if any of the toxic waste leaks onto my property I’m gonna sue you for everything you’ve got.

It’s not city hall zoning laws stopping you from building toxic waste dumps. When I said people should be able to build what they want, I was talking about mixed density housing and mixed use / light commercial.

There are some good people here on Lemmy but my god are there an awful lot of obtuse, blockheaded teenagers! Get a clue!

Oh I agree! I loved that startup sound! Compared to the SNES I was used to it sounded sooo next gen!

How do you put price caps on houses? They vary so much in price depending on location. A shack in San Francisco costs the same as a mansion in the middle of nowhere.

No this kind of centralized approach is doomed to fail. We’re much better off with Georgism with a land value tax and the total repeal of zoning laws. People should be able to build what they want, where they want, and the land value tax captures the increases in property values as a result. When a neighbourhood becomes too expensive to afford for single family households it gets converted into apartments.

All of our housing problems come from meddlesome local politicians, their NIMBY supporters, awful zoning laws and easements, and a terrible property tax system which disincentivizes development. A very simple land value tax system along with the total removal of local politicians’ power over housing development solves all of these issues.

Yes especially if you’re handling a very heavy cast iron pan, stock pot, or Dutch oven. I would not want to make a commercial stock pot sized batch of stock on any sort of glass flat top, induction or otherwise.

Side spill heat is the whole point. It lets you cook with the sides of the pan while turning, tossing, tilting, basting, flambe, and wokhei. It’s essential to Jacques Pepin’s French omelette technique. It’s essential to basting eggs or meat while pan frying. You need to tilt the pan to gather the fat to one side. If you do that with induction the power shuts off. Sure you can baste with a pan laying flat but that means you need to use way more fat.

It’s also the magic property of gas that makes it flexible enough to work with very large pans. Try using a 14” cast iron pan on your high end induction stove. You’re going to get a hot spot in the middle and cold sides where food will stick and make a mess.

Does your high end induction cooktop have a wok hob? As far as I know, the only ones you can get for woks are countertop models.

Another advantage to gas I didn’t mention: you can cook directly over the flame without any pan at all! This technique is perfect for charring peppers, tortillas, naan, and other dry items you can hold with tongs.

Induction isn’t far better for cooking. It’s better for cooking on a flat surface of the appropriate (small) size. It’s bad for cooking with large pans (especially cast iron). It’s bad for cooking with curved surfaces (such as woks). It’s also bad for cooking with non-ferrous materials such as copper and aluminum (it doesn’t work at all for these), so high end copper French saucepans are off the table.

Yes I’m aware of the existence of induction wok hobs. They’re neat but they only work well with a wok of the correct size and shape (otherwise the wok either wobbles around or doesn’t fit) and they’re not very powerful with North American 120V mains power. They also come with a crappy nonstick PFAS wok so you end up buying a separate carbon steel wok anyway.

And none of these will work with a large wok!

See as a Canadian I wouldn’t make it so complicated. The reason I would move to Australia is very simple: the weather.

But then I have a giant hole in my living room ceiling because all the winter storms this year caused a giant glacier of ice to build up on the roof which subsequently melted and leaked through the roof, destroying the ceiling in the process. Furthermore, this apparently happened to tons of other people in my area because the insurance company is currently swamped with claims over this.

Australia doesn’t have to deal with any of this. Australia has cheap and highly accessible solar power. Australia has beautiful weather 8 months of the year in exchange for blistering summers. I think I’d take that trade at this point!

Don’t mistake an explanation for an excuse

I don’t think he really understood what being a Nazi means. Not everyone knows what really happened with the Holocaust. Think about the state of the US education system for a moment.

That’s because Trudeau is wildly unpopular. So unpopular he was finally asked to resign (and agreed to do so) by his own party.

And furthermore if you want to understand the reasons behind anti-immigrant sentiment in Canada you should study our housing policies and issues. Canada is in the midst of a housing crisis which I believe is the main contributor to anti-immigrant sentiment.

Now you might say (and would be fair to do so) that immigrants are not to blame for bad housing policy. That is true, however it’s entirely fair for Trudeau to receive his share of the blame for the housing crisis, especially given his many promises to address the issue.

And if you’re wondering about Australia: its housing crisis is as bad or worse than Canada’s. Anti-immigration sentiment and far-right politics is even more prevalent there.

Without the gargantuan 3-dimensional death maze dungeons it’s not really going to appeal to the hardcore Daggerfall fans.

Wow I’m really surprised to hear people actually played with vanilla Morrowind and Oblivion leveling. I modded both games to fix that issue almost immediately after realizing how bad the system was.

Don’t get too caught up in thinking about desserts (who deserves what, in the moral sense). That path can lead to a downward spiral.

Instead try to focus on some positive things that you can do to change your life (or the lives of people around you) for the better. You will feel much better that way.
