Hotspur , to android in Louis Rossman: The best way to watch online video; my yearlong project is finally done!

Wild, so understandably android is a much greater share, given the wide variety of phones it can run on… I’m guessing iOS is a favored app market because it’s more monolithic or stable? Or put another way the android share is fragmented all over the place?

Hotspur , to android in Louis Rossman: The best way to watch online video; my yearlong project is finally done!

This is something I always wonder about—is there a good source for realistic market share of mobile os?

Hotspur , to news in Americans failed to pay record $688 billion in taxes in 2021, IRS says. Look for more audits.

I’ve literally heard that they’re on record about this—they simply don’t have the resources to take on big fish and their extremely well-funded legal protection, so they default to low income and middle income audits. It’s a total joke.

Hotspur , to nottheonion in Croc sex frenzy: Low-flying army choppers spark romp in the swamp

The authors really approached the subject with vigor—highly enjoyable prose style.

Hotspur , to technology in VR still makes 40-70% of players want to throw up, and that's a huge problem for the companies behind it

I’m in a similar boat. The use case where I really would use it regularly, simming, is hamstrung by two things. One, it’s so damn fiddly and laborious doing settings non stop to make it playable, and two, even if I get the settings right—I start noticing weird crap with my eyes after a couple sessions. Like you end up basically crossing your eyes all the time inside the visor, and I’ll notice fatigue/trouble focusing after using it a lot, what I would imagine it feels like to have a bad prescription or something (don’t personally have glasses).

And as you say, it’s bloody uncomfortable. Something like big screen beyond with good AR/passthrough would go a long way to fixing that I guess.

Hotspur , to nostupidquestions in Why don’t we use radiators as heat sinks in the summer and pump cold water through them?

There is a cooling strategy like this called “chilled beam” but has all the issues listed below by other posters; condensation management and power usage.

Hotspur , to world in Norwegian climber says it would have been impossible to carry injured Pakistani porter down snowy K2

Yeah I don’t understand the clamour. This sort of situation has happened many, many times. I remember reading about a guy dying in a cave near the Everest summit. Other climbers sat with him and shared water, comfort, but from that location, if he couldn’t move on his own, there was no way he was getting down. Also the numerous “landmark” bodies that the climbers pass right off the trail… there’s no safe way to remove them.

I think people assume that you can just carry someone out on a stretcher or arrange a helicopter—but people are literally operating on bleeding edge of oxygenation and helicopters can’t get up their for the same reasons… you aren’t going to be able to remove an incapacitated person who needs total physical support from others to move.

You could say, well it’s fucked up that people are paid to support these climbs, because they need the money, and there’s some validity to that, but in that case it’s not that different from something like deep sea welding or being in a combat unit of a military, etc.

Hotspur , to techsupport in PC control over ethernet adapters

Yeah, before you install all this hard infrastructure, would really recommend trying out LAN streaming. If you have a spare laptop that you can link up to the tv with hdmi you could try it out and see if it functions for you. I’m very impressed with how well moonlight works (shield streaming you can enable via GeForce experience I think)

The use case I’ve thought about for the hardwire connection is that I’d love to be able to able to mirror what my wife is watching on tv on my second d monitor sometimes. My assumption there is that I’d need to run a video out to a capture card I guess and have that output up. Otherwise I’d have to set the tv up as an additional monitor and play the stuff she’s watching for her.

Hotspur , to technology in Debloat / Setup script for windows 11

Well I see the comment, if that helps.
