911 turbo s?

Acceleration in a thing that in every other aspect feels like an internet appliance (tesla+friends) kind of misses the point in my experience.


That's usually called a greenhouse, and doesn't seem to be what Bowery was doing.

A greenhouse uses the sun. I never said that they were using a greenhouse. I described the purpose of their farming method.

/s?

Can't even tell


Here's the geekbench link https://browser.geekbench.com/v6/cpu/8593555

How/where are they getting 128gb of ram? I don't see that as an option for any of the pre-orders pages.

Still pretty impressive, I get 1217/10097 with dual xeon gold 6136 that doubles as a space heater in the winter.


Switch to M4 Max 16-core CPU, it will unlock 64 and 128GB options for memory.

Mac minis aren't available with set up - seems only macbook pro?

There are no Mac mini SKUs with M4 Max CPUs. Only base M4 and M4 Pro.

Same set up here - specifically went for OLED to minimize eye strain.

Fitts law? Never heard of it, but I didn't go law school.


I am fairly sure the people behind Gnome don't actually really know what they're doing when it comes to HID and Ux.

Gnome terminal for example will offset the right click contextual menu with a new line of bin/hex/oct representation of a number that you happen to have selected. By default, no it can't be disabled. Good luck with the muscle memory to hit the contextual menu items now that everything is shifted down.

Someone who knows what he is doing does not start over every couple of years.


You grew up in the states or similarly well-off place, right?

The first point is actually huge - soviet russia was the textbook example of the tragedy of the commons. If you're in system where your get paid the same token amount of money regardless of outcome, the rational optimization if to minimize effort.

The netflix series Chernobyl does a great job capturing the aesthetic of this - everything is just a little shitty and run down, every interior has some paint flaking, every exterior has something rusting etc.


Yes. I really good scientific explanation of this that confirms the anecdotal findings is discussed here [1](https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/X5RyaEDHNq5qutSHK/anti-socia...)

The TLDR is that ex-soviet countries experience a deep suspicion of certain pro-social behaviors that make ownership a loosing strategy.


Oh weird, they're not talking about covid


Need to in group signal, especially if you're a normie.

I wonder if this actually is a meta-art project of upmarketing a high-net-worth lifestyle (look at me, I live on a boat!) to a far left wing audience. Just need a vague manifesto ala https://xkcd.com/451/ and you're halfway there.


> a vague manifesto

Great idea. I shall someday write that.-
