So from what it sounds like they had an actual 3050 instead of that ridiculous piece of laptop based crud they called a 3050, but never released it and instead released that card which costs like a 3080.  Even though it’s more or less a 3060.   So the jaw dropping levels of BS started long before the 40 series.  Yay doopoly! So much fun!

A series on casinos, just playing around mostly?

casino scams, much worse. stealing money "legally".

A bit like lottery, only there is no prize.

There’s another unpopular opinion.  It’s a really really old one though and one held by most Casino owners: “Casino gambling is strictly for idiots”

find it funny though, how this is even legal.

Quote

in most cases of counters, casinos will just ban players from the property. If the casino catches you counting cards once, they typically ban you from ever playing there again. If they catch you counting cards more than once, they will probably press charges against you for fraud or cheating.

Because of a weird artifact of Nevada state law.    Prostitution is legal there too.  The only reason reservations can have casinos is they’re not actually state land.  It has been ruled illegal most places.  Casino operation has always been more or less just corporate thuggery.  It’s one of the reasons organized crime loved it so much.

I watched this and said to myself, ".. it can't be that good"

Bought it on Steam and I already clocked in 14 hours in 2 days...

As how much you have to trust samsung to not switch their SSD chips and trust the brands.

Same for food. if they are trying to become cheap, but in what way? to reduce quality or to engage in what can be an health hazard?

More so if labeling as the same food with the same ingredients. while some foods are just labelled different to gain some profits, like some ecological foods etc.

 

Also more the reason to not trust giants like amazon, if they do it themselves with some biological or food items, from radioactive material to malware on devices sold, to food items. unless they are able to create a food network outside of amazon, working with others and make the use of mass storage and digital control, scans, tracking, dates, labels, warnings, etc.

Wow that’s a lot of makeup.  A lot of these can be gotten around with a spice grinder.  Not the olive oil one though.  The olive oil problem is very old.  I was hearing about that one in the 1990s.   The problem is there aren’t enough olive trees for the number of people that want olive oil.  The stuff had become insanely expensive, but that wasn’t enough.  So grind your own spices and know what the original looks like, and give up on olive oil. Pick something else.  Something made from garbage like grape seed oil is a good one. Very high smoke point.  Failing that a seed (safflower oil, peanut oil) tree fruit oil is crazy in this day and age though.  I quit eating salt water fish years ago.   The move is if the stuff is high value and processed (so ground pressed, sliced filleted etc…) it falls under suspicion.  It’s interesting they didn’t mention. The poison squad, which more directly led to the FDA specifically.  The whole thing is like 2.5hrs or something, so a full movie, but if your into this it’s a good film.  This is stuff the Chinese population had to go through too.

Not sure how many chapters there are. Got to download the PBS app to get the whole thing.. it is free though.

yeah they could have attacked it a bit more, on some of the big issues and the many thousands that gets sick from fast food or store bought items or rather when there is an outbreak. Sometimes just be "cleaner" and it can help. You also got the victorian time for the british, but man how many "secret killers" the victorian time had, from paint, food or devices.

Heh.  “A thousand ways to die in the west” except the west was just one place in the Victorian era.  It was everywhere.

I do wonder if this thing is any good.  They are apparently attempting to use “active cooling” as a buzzword.

 

these things appear to move air, which is what a fan of whatever type) does.  The reason they get loud is vibration.  If this thing can push the air without creating vibration they might have something.
 

 The was dude seems to be explaining it as filtered through my fevered and not very efficient brain, is the air molecules hit the fin surface and heat up.  Not all of the molecules moved by the fan actually hit the fins though.  This thing seems to want to blow the air in very short very sharp puffs which effectively gets more molecules to touch the fin, so even though there’s not as much total air movement or total fin area it can produce a similar amount of cooling. The amount here is critical, and not discussed.  The metric for computer cooling solutions (because this seems to be a cooler with fan made as part of the chip?) is amount of cooling vs db of noise vs amount of electricity used.  Peltiers, for example are not popular because the amount of electricity used is so very high.  Also they’re relatively expensive  as a complete solution. They are claiming the thing has massive static pressure, so filters can improve.  They are also claiming silence or near silence.   I’m interested in how this looks when the rubber hits the road. What it sounds sort of like is there would be one of these on what amounts to every “fin” of a cooler.  The thing claims 10 watts of cooling.  They are claiming “10 watts” of cooling is what an intel laptop does.  The U models do that.  28 and 40 are more common though.   What is more that 10 can easily be 40, and desktop CPUs are like 65w min, with GPUs up to something like 400w.  So 40 “fins” spaced 2.8mm apart.  
 

Made me read this

https://asmedigitalcollection.asme.org/heattransfer/article-abstract/143/6/064001/1094016/A-Modern-Review-on-Jet-Impingement-Heat-Transfer?redirectedFrom=fulltext

seems like this sort of stuff would already be in use in stuff like water blocks though, and probably regular computer air coolers. The salesman poo pops “19th century fan technology”. At least the concept anyway  If I’m reading this right though this IS 19th century technology.  The just did it on hot metal with water or oil.  Automotive industry stuff.  There could be BS here.  Of course that is what marketers do.  It might be nice to instead of using a bunch of bloweymatrons to cool a 2.0 slot a100 replace the cold plate with 40 of these set sideways, and save one heck of a lot of noise and probably some power.  IF.
 

Makes me wonder about water coolers.  This sounds a lot like ink just printer technology but with air.  What if it was left as water?  Put one of those things in a cold plate.  I’m remembering that cold plates already jet water at very high velocity.  They may already be doing this. 
 

I don’t know enough about the subject to actually debunk it, but it smells off, and I’m not sure if the implied gains will be actual. This whole thing reeks of scale rounding error. There a whole lot of “will it fly Orville?” here.

Been sort of binging this entire series.  Perhaps there is irony here.
