The other thing to note is that it's based on percentage of users, not total number of users. We don't know if it's an increase in the total number of windows 11 users causing this, or a massive decrease in windows 10 users jumping ship to Linux.

The I7 has hyper threading which is a ~50% perf boost over the i5

Serious question, why haven't you upgraded to an i7 yet? They'd have to be super cheap at this point, right?

Wow, that seems like a great price, almost too good to be true.

20/mo. x 120mo. + 695 =

$3100 over the 10 year (average) lifespan is cheaper than buying 25kwh yourself to diy.

Oh wait, there's a catch! You're still paying 9¢/kwh from the battery.

They did on the Rav4 and compared to the Prius it's selling like hotcakes. Half of the ones sold in the US were hybrids last year, and nearly as many phev rav4s as the Prius

Federal funding for road projects (among myriad others) is being cut, so funding will have to come from somewhere.

If they really wanted to target drivers passing through the state as that claim, they should exempt hoosiers entirely from the tolls. But I think they're just blowing smoke, so their constituents won't get mad.

The alternatives, as I see them, would be increasing registration fees or gas tax. Gas tax increase is obviously a no-go, because people will complain about fuel costs rising. Higher registration fees could be possible since they've done it before on electric vehicles, but would be argued against as: reducing the ability of poor families to afford a car.

If I had my way, I'd exempt anything below 2 tons, since the heavier vehicles do far more damage. Then use 50% of the revenue to build a cycleway parallel to Kentucky ave, and another at mass ave to 21st and/or 30th.

Lol the designed to be dull excuse always sounded like they were too cheap to pay for someone to sharpen it every 4-6 months.

Couple years ago I wouldn't have argued, but with graphics cards ballooning to 3+ slots, you have to be more careful about which slots on the motherboard have full enough lanes to support your cards. And you have to make sure your motherboard has the full x16 slot in the highest position which is less common on boards with m.2. otherwise there isn't room for expansion cards

Jonsbo makes some decent compact nas cases with plenty of space for drives. Look at their N series N3/N4 etc.

matx would be more upgradable than itx, but nobody is making either of them with 10gb Ethernet. So I personally would be looking at full ATX boards so I could add in a nic.

It's not impossible, but first Gen Ryzen was surprisingly good after AMD shit the bed for a few years. Most major manufacturers weren't willing to take a chance, though you can find some 2nd Gen available on the used market.

If it were me, I'd look for a motherboard/CPU combo and assemble it into your case of choice. That way you aren't stuck with the weird form-factors of pre-built office computers.

Up to 1200w can be back-fed into the 120v sockets in normal homes. No net metering or other permission required, as long as it meets UL/NEC standards.

 

Is there a way to post gifs? When I try to use gboards gifs it says I can't put an image in the post
