Leaked image of new Apple EV.

EV on its roof, with charging cable underneath; reminiscent of Apple Magic Mouse.

I like the idea, but the card will need a variety of transformers to get the >40V PoE voltages down to the <20V USB-PD voltages. (lots of rounding here)

Honestly, yeah, it has crossed my mind. Gonna be some weird voltage transformations tho (PoE ~40s and up, USB-PD usually <40)

Didn't the Nazis wait at least a couple years before executing people in the streets? The US seems more like 1930s Russia than Germany these days.

Once I saw your wildfire guys responding to a motorcycle accident because you were closest. Caring for the injured and directing traffic despite it not being your duty. Keep up the good work.

Because they are training the AIs using the remote worker. The remote workers will be phased out in favor of datacenters full of silicon.

How does The Orville manage to pack more punches in 3 seasons than all of TNG? And it is supposed to be a comedy.

OK, I'm going to go out on a limb here. I don't like Gavin Newsom. I dislike many of his policies. I don't think he is an honest person. That being said, he's one of the few standing up to the fascists. Given a choice between a guy I disagree with and orange HItler, I pick the guy I disagree with.

They say we're all just a few degrees of separation from each other. I know it isn't quite statistically true, but it is close enough. I've seen Kevin McCarthy walk his dogs.

I should note I screwed up where the burning cars were :(

I'm pretty sure I got less argument in Sunday school when I said I wasn't so sure about transubstantiation than when I express an opinion about a LInux distro.

It's been a while since I did a quick movie review: The Long Kiss Goodnight A pretty good 90's style action flick that plays with some tropes in fun ways.

In my experience, she'll appreciate the effort even if you screw up names or pronouns.

I think I had unlocked the shield ability and went out of town and couldn't remember what to do when I got back. A few months later I restarted and it was smooth sailing that time. But I didn't find the DLCs to be that great.

I had a false start with it. The order and rate the game unlocks powers is a bit off. It is worth it to power through, IMO; but I understand that "it gets good after 10 hours" is a weak endorsement.

I loved it on PC, despite some graphics engine issues. The recent patch did not help.

This is so frustrating for various "left" groups to be squabbling over imagined slights while the government is discussing sending citizens to labor camps in El Salvador.

The entire Mannerheim line was included in the demand. This is similar to what Germany demanded from Czechoslovakia and their own fortifications. It would have left Finland open to a more traditional invasion.
