A few weeks ago my daughter and I were out and about and almost went to McDonalds. We decided instead to go to our favorite local Italian place and it ended up being cheaper than McDs, if you don’t include the tip, for a much better meal at a sit down restaurant that supports local businesses. I really feel like McDonald’s priced themselves out of their own market… and they’re not even the most expensive “fast food”.

There’s hardware video encoding/decoding support. I used a Pi3b+ to transcode video for a while and would easily get 2x or better on full 1080p video. The 4 is better and I’ve heard even better on the 5, but I’ve not had a compelling reason to spend that much to find out.

This sounds an interesting season of MTV The Real World.

Thing is, the poor aren’t running bitcoin miner farms. Crypto doesn’t change anything but traceability of the funds, letting the rich get even richer.

Honestly the percentage of Reddit posts that Google returns which still actually retain their info is dropping substantially for me. Last few times it pulled up a Reddit post that should have my answer instead had either the question or the answers I needed deleted.

Any data transit costs money. Both in the data transit itself and in the increased server resources to respond to the web queries in the first place.

How much gravity would the Deathstar’s mass provide? I feel like it would be very small considering it has no real massive central solid or liquid core.

Luckily, there’s some pretty great non-Russian vodka out there!

Are you roughly the size of a barge?
