As a Dutch person I would assume everyone already owns at least one bicycle.

Bloody vikings!

Even if a small ship rotates fast that would ‘t work. If you have a small diameter then there would a huge difference between the perceived ‘gravity’ at your head vs at your feet.

Not based on Konqueror (the browser) but on khtml (the render engine Konqueror was built around).

They just proposed it, so sounds like they aren’t the ones who get to make the final decision.

I suspect they’re going to end up calling it ‘trump crater’ or something equally heinous.

I would use something like this to measure water usage in combination with an presence sensor in the shower stall. Water flowing + someone present in shower stall = someone taking a shower.

There were a lot of cults in that region in that time period. Jesus may well be an amalgamation of multiple cult leaders.

No constant traffic near your house (cleaner air, safer streets).

Over here in 2026 we have satnav in our cars and on our bikes. We also have a system of road types that actually makes sense and that keeps traffic out of housed areas as much as possible.

Ugh that grid pattern. Imagine living somewhere so uninspired.

I live in northern Europe, summer days are long. We don’t get actual night for several months (best we get is astronomical twilight for a few hours). DST makes no sense here.

That’s not an issue at all during summer. Do you really need sunlight until 22:00 at night? Right now you basically cannot be outdoors during summer nights because it’s too hot in the direct sunlight. By the time it cools down enough to be outdoors it’s already time for bed.

The best parts of summer nights are when the sun goes down and the world finally cools down enough to be outdoors. We should move the clock an hour back in summer to get more of that. Call it Moonlight Saving Time.

Is there any benefit to DST? I can’t think of anything.

No. Brainstorming is when you’re with a group and everyone is throwing out ideas unfiltered.

Rubber duck debugging is when you are trying to solve an issue by describing your problem to another person (or a rubber duck) and through the act of describing the problem you gain a better understanding of the issue and often this causes you to get a ‘eureka moment’ where the solution is suddenly clear to you.

ReBAR may make things bit more efficient, but you still need to move data back and forth to VRAM over the slow PCIe bus.

This is not a huge problem for games, as it’s mostly sending data to VRAM that stays there for a long time, but it is a major bottleneck for many GPGPU tasks.

Since even Nvidia doesn’t seem to care about games anymore (and consoles have always used unified memory) I expect the discrete GPU to go the way of the dodo.

Why do children have to ruin everything?

Unified memory is awesome. It lets you do things like handing over tasks to the GPU with zero overhead.

That means you can choose whether to do something on CPU or GPU based on which is more suitable for the task. With a traditional discrete GPU with it’s own VRAM you sometimes do things on the CPU even though the GPU would be better suited as the overhead of copying data to and from VRAM would negate any performance benefits of letting the GPU do it.

User replaceable components come at a performance costs. Everything in tech is a trade-off.

Please don’t. I have no kids; I have so much to live for.

LOL, What do I know right. I only have a degree in computer engineering and 20 years of experience as a software engineer. It’s not like I write GPU code for a living…. oh wait, I do.
