Proton is Valve’s specific fork of Wine. The launcher sees you using Proton and probably detecting controller buttons and then connecting that you’re on a Linux handheld.

He does a quick calculation in the video and concludes that in this case it was ~176KB of uncompressed information, working out to about 2 MiB/s of bandwidth given that time it took to sing out the data.

I ran a microbiology lab that specifically tested for food borne illness causing bacteria.

Here’s a very recent attempt to assess the safety of cold brew coffee coming out of UGA. newswire.caes.uga.edu/…/cold-brew-coffee.html

These findings line up with earlier work such as this paper doing a general analysis of cold brew coffee and this Canadian government report on detected food borne pathogens in cold brew coffee..

The consensus I’m seeing is that cold brew coffee, especially when kept cold, is not a great environment for most food borne illness causing pathogens to thrive. Bacillus cereus and potentially botulism would have been more accurate choices.

The logic isn’t flawed, your priors are. You’re assuming that people are constantly on a cycle of charging their battery to the limit, running it down low, and then charging it again. If you mostly play docked or with a charger plugged in then capping the battery at around 80% prolongs the battery runtime for when you do turn the limit off and want to use the full battery.

If you mostly play fully charged and stationary, then lowering the charge limit means you have more future opportunities to experience the fully battery runtime when you disable the setting.

I enjoy these every time they make it to my feed, thanks for making them.

Google’s speakers have had local voice processing for basic commands for years now. Things like toggling power on lights or changing TV volume. They’re also expanding that locally processed control into then being run through the Matter standard so the whole chain is done locally. I have personally verified the local processing on my own network traffic.

In God We Trust is also an objectively less cool motto than e pluribus unum which translates to out of many, one. We traded the original ideal of a people united by difference into a boringly generic religious proclamation just to try to stick it to the commies.

The average human has somewhere between 1.1 and 1.4 testicles.

The modern definitions of units feel even more arbitrary because they are inextricably tied to more organic origins. Consider the often made fun of fahrenheit scale which was the first to define a reasonably repeatable degree size by using two widely available reference points as the 100 and 0 ends of the scale, human body temperature for the high end and an ammonium chloride ice water mix for the low end.

The definition of a second was a bit jankier. Etymologically the name comes from a second hand added to a watch face to give some kind of indicator that the minutes are passing by. NIST has an excellent writeup on this subject. Over time different repeatable ways to measure a second have been determined all with the goal of having some action a human could use to calibrate their device’s second measurement to so their seconds are as long as everyone else’s.

The point is, we didn’t choose a second to be defined as some number of atomic oscillations. We had an already agreed upon definition of a second that used less precise methods than modern technology demanded and used a natural phenomenon that could be very accurately measured to make a less arbitrary definition.

You misunderstand. NIST standard reference peanut butter is not “the industry standard of what peanut butter should be”. It is peanut butter made with meticulously precise amounts of base ingredients so the testable components can be used as a real world reference for calibration of instruments. It’s no different than any other reference standard in that the purpose is to be a known input to calibrate the instruments used for measurements.

Also, it actually tastes pretty terrible.
