Everyone could always learn woodworking, weaving, sewing, smithing, … that is not an argument. The point is that better tools make it easier to learn/perform/perfect these skills. Today anyone with a little torch and a hammer can play around with steel. 300 years ago you had to at least take on an apprenticeship to ever get to do that. Sewing with a sewing machine is so much faster, there is not much time to invest before you can make your own clothes.

Not everyone has 100s of hours free time to sink into this and that skill “the purist way”. Any tool that makes the learning curve more shallow and/or the process itself easier/cheaper/… helps democratizing these things.

You argue as if everyone needs to be a super duper software architect, while most people just want to create some tool or game or whatever they think of, just for themselves.

Google it for the specific device you have, especially how to open it.

Resetting the BIOS involves removing the internal CR2032 battery. Not a charged (main) battery.

Okay, heard of that one before. But even knowing that, I still don’t get what it has to do with CERN, nor eating ass.

I don’t get it :(

Last time this happened to me, more or less, I was trying to find the original source of some commonly (in the field) understood thing. After digging deeper and deeper I came out at Einstein or some similar physicist from the early 19 hundredths. That was wild and unexpected, as it was decades earlier than what I expected. The experiments they did to get us here is amazing.

“far” less, like 1.999 or something.

Ffs that guy is annoying. Did not even do the math, which should have told him that hypersonic does not even scratch the surface unless he has an extremely wide drop-off region.

So 10 have the same product, then what? Race to the bottom again? What about key details that are not easy to see but can be important? Amazon really is shit in this regard already, but randomly mixing shops will only be worse.

It is Plutonium-238.

So you just want to say things you believe and not tell others why you believe them and even dislike being asked?

There is still no connection. How should there be one?

Sure with easy numbers multiplication is easy. Try anything else.

There is no connection from a random printer you buy somewhere anonymous to you. They can “only” verify something was (not) printed with that printer.

What do you want to achieve with it? They were still (super) unreliable last time I checked. Unreliable as in “you might as well roll a dice”. Oh and they all say they are world leading, best etc.

And that is supposed to be easier than 2 digits or something you have to look up on a chart?

Wait, that was not supposed to be the house number? That is the actual street “name”? Ooof

Because he experienced data loss, as he says?

What about data safety, backups etc.? If someone has access to my PC, that is already pretty catastrophic.

Oh that can absolutely end in a desaster. Like not breaking when driving a car when you absolutely should.
