That’s a big problem if all was lost and we had to rebuild just from experience. You can’t just make a 5nm chip because you know how to do it. You need 7nm chips in the machine that makes 5nm chips. That machine needs 12nm chips, and so on.

Yup. The mentality is great. ‘you get a line - a 1 or 10gbit line costs us the same once it’s set up, so you pay the same price’
Thing is, yes. Yallo or wingo or all those providers are “cheaper”. But - for example in the case of yallo, you get double-natted - which means you could not really set up a home server accessible from the outside world even if you wanted to. Then, there’s also the support of wingo and yallo and so on which is… Terrible. I actually ordered yallo Internet at first because I got sold on it over the phone - the next day, before anything got shipped or anything, I wanted to annul my contract because, well, I found out about their shitty stuff. I was redirected like 8 Times across 8 levels of ‘support’ until I got it through.
I went for init7. Day it was supposed to go up, it didn’t. Phone support was competent, said everything looked ok from their end. If I was sure the problem wasn’t on my end (router, settings, fiber), they could send a technician along the next day - but if the problem would end up being on my side, I’d have to pay for it. As I was sure about what I was doing, the next morning I had a competent technician in my apartment who within 20 minutes total identified the issue and fixed it (broken fiber in the distribution center). That is good support.
I am willing to pay more to support init7, because they’re doing great work.
But yes, we have lots of low cost options. For example, I pay 23 bucks a month with yallo for unlimited 5g data, calls and SMS across the whole of Europe.
I mean, I can get symmetrical 25gbit/s for 777 bucks a year IN Switzerland. No limits, big ipv6 subnet, great provider. Init7.
Care to enlighten us?
I use vscode because I do a lot of embedded.
Used to be that you had to jump through some hoops to make it work - make your own makefiles and stuff. Now, all the major vendors of MCUs are starting to develop vscode plugins as their “IDE” instead of those horrible ultramodified eclipse installs.
Deja vu. I get it as well, especially as a kid.
Usually, not too weird.
But I guess what qualifies as ‘weird’ is that I enjoy consuming snus / oral tobacco when masturbating. And exclusively when masturbating.
For me it’s stfu
I wouldn’t call 1tb storate for 4$ and 1tb egress for 7$ “dirt cheap”. Hetzner storage boxes are cheaper.
Definitely. I assume the actual cost for the cable is <10$, but engineering work gets very expensive very fast if you’re small scale.
I’m interested in something - say you got an order for 1 million units, what’s the price per unit you could offer?
Edit: just looked at the DIY option - seems right now you’re just using off the shelf parts, which is fine. Clever use of them, even. Main part seems to be ‘present usb device - once the usb device gets removed, lock down the PC’. So, you specifically just need some usb device with a cord that attaches magnetically - and securely enough that it doesn’t disconnect randomly, with some mechanical way to fix it to yourself. So yeah, at million scale, seems you could definitely sell it for 10 bucks a piece.
Your phone can play music just like an mp3 player can.
Your phone doesn’t have an e-ink screen.
That’s the whole reason.
Simple, really. Abs(x-y) is the difference between the two numbers, absolute, so positive value. So, adding abs(x-y) to the smaller of the two numbers turns it into the bigger number. Plus the bigger number, now you have 2 times the bigger number
