If you try to watch them on the mutualofomaha site they’re sadly heavily edited and complete shit. The videos on that site edit the original episodes from the 60s and repackaged them with a new host.
Was able to find full length videos on internet archives. The episode from this clip is called Land of the Quaking Earth.
Sir, this is Technology Connections. He does not need to be bribed to make a 2 hour video about dishwashers. It comes from the heart, and we love him for it.
Damn, I was really hoping he’d have something I hadn’t tried. Most of these are just “how to use a dishwasher” stuff I learned as a kid. And my dishes still don’t get clean.
I use the lemishine shit in every wash, because I have very hard water, and frankly it’s still not enough with all the other tricks to actually clean my dishes if they aren’t already kinda clean..
The big downside of running acid through your dishwasher is that it will strip paint off stuff with continued use. Lost a bunch of kiln-fired printed glassware this way. Don’t recommend.
I do have a whole house polyphosphate water softener I need to install, which I’m hoping will help, but my city is doing work on the water mains, so I’m holding off until that’s done.
He may have been, but they have several products and what he was showing is the detergent booster, I believe (linked below), and not the machine cleaner which is used periodically (which is just a stronger form of it that you run without dishes in, and comes in little packets - great for cleaning hard water marks from toilets!)
He did point out dishes should be loaded with the dirty side towards the center. I'd always thrown everything in facing the same direction and my dishwasher handles it fine, but his way makes sense.
The One Ring is quite literally the God in the Machine. The will of the Ring is to be returned to Sauron. If it is cast into the sea it would be found. It would get swallowed by a fish, which is subsequently caught and brought the lands of Men. It would be found by a pearl diver. It would be snagged by an anchor. Ocean currents would bring it within reach of the shore, and it would be discovered in a tidal pool. It. Would. Be. Found.
Now, I'm off to watch that video, brb
And I'm back. I was partly right! The creator makes some other very good points and I won't spoil it by enumerating them here. Suffice to say Gandalf was not a modern CEO or politician, and took the long view. Good quotes from the books, and a great analysis
Why would those homebrew game developers be unable to do what programmers did back then? It is not even as if games back then had huge teams like they do today.
No reason really, and the video doesn't suggest they'd be unable to. Its title is doing that regular clickbaity style of YouTube, but the content itself is interesting if you wondered what went into making these small games, and how some grew in size later in the NES' existence as more was added to cartridges to enable more involved games.
Certainly not unable, but lots of factors seem like they would add to difficulty particularly if emulators didn't exist (because cartridge-based storage, aging/costly hardware). Then there's the idea of having a target on your back (or any tools that make it more viable) due to extremely litigious/malicious entities and to me it just seems like a niche that isn't worth the extra time.
I'm grateful for PC games under 100MiB. Closer to 10MiB is worthy of praise and below that may be half amazing. There is .kkrieger at only 95KiB for a 3D game (and that is another mealtime topic), but I think that is more interesting visually than it is for gameplay.
Or to be clear, I see the "STILL" more for creating games for old proprietary hardware than for optimization itself.
Correct. The last line of my comment is most relevant to this chain.
More specifically I could say that while many optimizations might be general-use or discoverable, others may be specific to said old system (or maybe getting around limitations). That and this level of optimization would be diminishing returns for even the lowest of modern systems (but obviously nearly required for the target hardware).
Making a minimalist and well-optimized game for desktop PC is going to be significantly easier and with more of an audience than trying to target most other hardware. There are also fantasy consoles like TIC-80 or WASM-4 for more modern/open targets that likely have better documentation/communities (or the community for whatever language you are using instead).
I remember this thing from the post Gulf War cleanup. It would put a house fire out in a second, and relocate the house to the next county over at the same time.
This is a great video, I can't believe I never noticed the extremely obvious s*** covered similarities between Ronnie and Donnie, I think it's because I just held Ronald Reagan in such disdain that even with his orange clown and the White House, I never made the connection.
Two former actors switching from Democrat to Republican, and aligning themselves with white Christian nationalists to ruin labor unions and prop up the wealthy class that they are part of telling the blue collar people that someone who's playing the system unfairly is going to take their job even though the statistics didn't show that at all, and they both ignored the pandemic of their era, a delay that resulted in deaths.
Torx are pretty much a single use screws. That's why mountain bike brake rotor replacements always come with fresh screws - you undo old ones and 99.9% they will be busted.
All screws are kind of single use, if you replace the part you should also replace the bolts.
But if you bust a torx in a single rotation (screw/unscrew) it's either very shit quality or you're doing something very very wrong. Maybe try a torx bit of a correct size instead of a hammer?
If a person isn't vegan, it's not what they eat, but who. Some people don't give a fuck about other people being racist, not caring about shit is the norm.
Those were two very interesting sentences you put together.
There are some studies that show mycelium may show signs of sentient behavior. Also, trees and plants are shown to communicate and warn other plants of dangers. Heck, even trees are known to leverage mycelium networks to communicate.
I guess the question is: Who the heck have you been eating?
Any argument for plant sentience is an argument for veganism since according to the USDA, animals consume over 70% of soy and 40% of corn in the US (humans only consume 10% of corn directly).
Corn and soy are the two largest crops.
Not only does buying animal products kill the animal for that product, but amplifies crop deaths from all the crops they are fed and are inefficiently converted to flesh.
You can be vegan and not eat mushrooms. 95% of plant biologists are in agreement plants are not sentient. If they were, still makes sense to be vegan.
