Fire Sale? Amazon Flooded With Dodgy 16-Pin GPU Power Adapters
  • Amazon has become a middleman for Alibaba at this point. If I don’t mind waiting for a part I’ll just order it straight from Aliexpress or a component seller.

  • People get mad at climate protesters for throwing things on art and tell them to protest rich people propagating climate change instead. Here they are, finally protesting against the rich and people still find things to get mad at them about.

  • SpaceX worker injuries rise as Elon Musk accelerates Mars mission, report says
  • Colonizing Mars during this century seems so braindead to me. There are lots of issues, such as:

    -Lack of substantial life support resources- it would be difficult to make oxygen or water from the elements on Mars.

    -High surface radiation levels mean structures need to be underground

    -It takes a very long time to shuttle supplies between Earth and Mars, and it would be unfathomably expensive.

    -The tendency for humans to lose their minds in isolation means we need to use robots, develop "hypersleep", or build an elaborate and expensive base to keep humans entertained.

    -The red planet is hostile to electronics. There are miles and miles of dust to clog up devices, and high wind speeds could damage above ground structures. Wind+dust=static, which is the arch nemesis of computer technology.

    Let's start with solving climate change, living on the moon, or mining asteroids and see how it goes.

    The hardest workers get the smallest pay.
  • The majority of my bosses worked a lot more than me, to the point where I don't even know how they stayed awake. At my current job, the workplace is falling apart because the upper management refuses to work long hours like that while us lower staff deal with the aftermath. I love bashing on rich people, but a lot of them (semi-rich) worked hard to get where they are and in a way deserve it. You sound like a good boss- I wish more places understood that taking on more responsibility means more dedication and more hours instead of getting to boss people around.

  • The hardest workers get the smallest pay.
  • The wealthiest people that I know (definitely not billionaire range) work a lot more hours compared to me, but most of them consist of consulting, meetings, traveling, and virtual meetings while traveling- it seems like they’re constantly on the phone. They’re happy to interact with lower stature people to get a feel of how people generally feel about the times and politics. They’re also generous, but not too generous- they get anxious around really poor people. They fly A LOT too- if you’re flying a domestic flight between cities you’re probably sharing a cabin with a super rich person. Definitely not a billionaire with a private jet though.

  • Millennials: It's ok to mourn the death of social media
  • The thing that threw me off Facebook was the 2016 election and the Cambridge Analytica scandal, even though I ran a popular meme page. I thought I found a sanctuary on Reddit, but looking back everything major on it was shilled to advertise or sow political discord. I thought Google Plus had a lot of potential, but nobody I knew would join and y’know, Google’s privacy record.

  • After decades of dreams, a commercial spaceplane is almost ready to fly
  • Why? There’s so many other things we could put money towards that would help people like climate change research.

    Jellyfish as Food: A Narrative Review

    >Abstract: Studies toward a sustainable future conducted by international organizations uniformly agree about having to change some of our present consumer behaviors. Regarding food, suggestions include eating locally farmed, less industrialized and renewable food to promote health and circularity, and limiting waste. Jellyfish are frequently sorted and discarded after being caught with fish in fishing nets and gear. In contrast, we propose utilizing this by-catch as food. This review discusses the economic value and sustainability of jellyfish, the technologies used to prepare them for human consumption, their nutritional profile and health impacts and, finally, consumer acceptability and sensory evaluation of jellyfish food products. This discussion is critical for promoting jellyfish as an important aquatic resource to support blue and circular economies.
