I’m pretty sure $15/TB for HDDs was considered the standard not too many years ago

Edit: the last time I bought an HDD (2023) it was 20 TB for $280, so $14/TB.

Yeah, but inertia. And you want me to join an instance with a slight blue tinge? Are you mad? I’ll just stay where I’m at and sort by all communities.

No, because I’d rather not normalize “torture” happening to something fake when people already don’t take torture very seriously.

Yeah, at that magnitude loss one more and we’d only have tens of millions of years left.

Just for clarity’s sake, while it’s possible that Pyrowave streaming could cause service interruptions for other people on your LAN (and thus isn’t suitable for high-traffic networks like at a company or large business), it is strictly intended to be used over your local network, not the Internet. As a result, your internet connection doesn’t matter at all, so if you were worried about ripping through your data allotment on a metered connection, there’s no need for alarm; all of the data sent is between devices on your network. Even the over-200 megabits-per-second of Pyrowave is peanuts compared to the tens of gigabytes per second your graphics card is sending to your display via DisplayPort or HDMI, after all.

Your internet shouldn’t matter, so long as you aren’t using that power line to connect all the computers in your house.

Then how would you have done it, now that you have access to the data?

Roughly 200 per month in the past 3 months is All Deaths Involving COVID-19, and for 2026 it also says about death certificates “In at least 67% of these [6,028 for the entire year of 2026 so far] deaths, COVID-19 was listed as the underlying cause of death. For the remaining deaths, COVID-19 was listed as a contributong cause of death.”

The arrest affidavit said that on Aug. 25, several guard members were sitting in a black van during a patrol break outside of a Popeyes restaurant. Mitchell and a female guard member were arguing about whether their hairstyles were following army regulations.

Mitchell, who was sitting in the third row of the van, and the female guard member, who was sitting in the front seat, got into an increasingly heated exchange. According to the affidavit, the woman in the argument said that “Mitchell stated something to the effect of ‘I would slap the Jackson 5 out of you.’” After more back-and-forths, the female guard member, who was not identified in court documents, responded: “shut the f*** up.”

Though the woman in the front seat did not see Mitchell pull his gun out, she said she heard a “holster click” and witnesses inside the van stated they saw it raised. The female guard member then left the van and went inside Popeyes.

Definitely sounds like someone that should never be trusted with a gun again. I’m glad she’s okay.

It looks like soft shells in the photo, and I’d generally agree that they’re better than hard shells.

What about regenerative braking? How do you configure it to prioritize regenerative braking while still allowing the brake pads to be used?

You only have to lay a cable down once and it’ll work for however many decades. People trudging through on a regular basis to leave rocks would be an ongoing concern.

The effects of these mega-storms are especially challenging in a region more used to disasters caused by the absence of rain. Niger, one of the world’s 10 poorest countries, saw tens of thousands die from famine during the late 20th century droughts. Now, it sees more deaths from floods than droughts. Fierce storms during the 2024 monsoon season inundated the capital, Niamey, and in rural areas washed away more than 150,000 mud-brick homes.

The extreme rains are causing massive floods that kill a lot of people, but overall it’s probably better to have water.

Daniel Berntsson is the co-founder of Mullvad, a highly regarded Swedish VPN service. That reputation is likely about to take a hit, though, since we’ve just learned that the guy donated 5 million kronor (around €450,000) to the Swedish far-right party Örebropartiet.

And don’t go thinking this is just a rumor - Berntsson confirmed it himself by email to the journal Flamman, which broke the story: “it’s a personal donation from me.”

Those 5 million kronor represent roughly 72% of everything the party took in during 2025, and it’s also the largest private donation made to any Swedish political party that year. That’s not nothing. And Örebropartiet’s obsession is “re-emigration” - i.e., sending all immigrants out of the country - which their leader Markus Allard describes as getting rid of “parasites.”

It wasn’t that long ago we learned that the Mullvad cofounder was using his money to fund a far right party trying to kick out all immigrants. We can absolutely still learn new things about people, even if there are a lot of Nazis running around out in the open.

We all know that immediately selling out of your entire stock and still having a huge reservation list means your product has failed spectacularly. That’s just basic economics.

Although the first Minions movie had them hibernating in a cave from 1812 to 1968, the interviewer noted that Minions & Monsters establishes that there are multiple tribes of Minions.

“I was trying to avoid the answer,” said Coffin, noting he’s fully aware of the online theories.

“So the Minions that we know from Minions 1 were stuck in the cave,” he added. “These ones, I don’t know where they were, but they were not part of the Big History.”

Not so clearly, after reading the article.

Not a programmer, but I think this is referring to electron, or things like it.

The framework is designed to create desktop applications using web technologies (mainly HTML, CSS and JavaScript, although other technologies such as front-end frameworks and WebAssembly are possible) that are rendered using a version of the Chromium browser engine

It just feels super desperate to me for them to say that.

But the poster doesn’t say only in theaters. The poster just says “in theaters” unless we’re seeing different posters somehow.
