At the end of the day, at least for silly private servers, you are always welcome to build it yourself. Theres much to learn in doing that.

Perhaps a large horizontal whisk.

Do fluids appreciate sheer force when it is parallel to gravity?


What temperature does your phone reach when you do this for an hour?


Phones perform thermal throttling before getting too hot. The question thus becomes: how does it perform after one hour?


Not great) Tried replacing my laptop with a Samsung phone+monitor combination on a trip, didn't really work out. Phones are not built for continuous load.


The official DeX docks have a fan built in. This helps a lot especially if you take the phone out of the case. I need to do so anyway because the usb doesn't go in deep enough without it.


dock + fan + monitor already weights more than a laptop ..


Umm yeah but I don't travel with those. I keep them on site. And just plug in my phone when I get there. I have one set up at every place I am a lot.


Yeah, I used to work on what was eventually sold as the Meta Quest VR headset and we all knew that thermal throttling would be a major sticking point.

Thankfully my job was all about reducing rendering latency to prevent people from getting nauseous, so thermal throttling was outside of my scope.


I wanted to find a reputable source to back up this claim but instead I found a link from the atlantic. I did not read it, its behind a paywall and its not peer reviewed. The general concensus is that smart = subsidized by adware

The link simply states that they make a lot of money from the malware on TVs, something I'm not disputing. I am disputing that if I would buy a TV burn it without ever turning it on they manufacturer would lose money. In essence: The ads are simply pure profit on top of the TV sale.


I literally only use my smart tv with external devices. There’s no TV ads I see.


Cool bro. How does this relate to the discussion about whether smart TVs are sold below cost though?

Browse to the article, click reader mode, click refresh. Might need to be in a private window, in case of cookie shenanigans.


Advertising should be illegal.


Wouldn’t this have serious negative consequences? For example, no new companies or products could find customers. Although I do wonder if there’s something to your suggestion. Maybe it is that we need to limit the ability of really powerful companies to abuse advertising in some way. Curious if you have any Ideas that are not a total ban.


(Independent) product reviews.


And how do the reviewers find out about products? Please give these things more than a second of thought before saying them.


Retailers? You know, when they want to find out about products. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


This is hilarious. You’re using Y Combinator’s advertising and propaganda board as we speak.


Maybe some of the people who come here are those most in need of the message?



You are paying for may labour, not my mental health. As soon as you think you can mistreat me I am walking. 10 times out of 10, no negotiations.

Taking away the value I produce is the consequence of your actions.


What is instagram?


If you make your point in a more verbose and personable way it will be more convincing.


Becoming less ignorant is time that could have been spent on this sprint, and is often punished.
