  • Certain TLD (e.g. .com, .net, .xyz) will cost a different amount per year to register. I use porkbun as well. A .com or .net may be $12.50+ per year. The cheapest domain is 9 numbers and .xyz from porkbun at 1.22/yr (e.g 123456789.xyz) but isnt as memorable. I use one of those just for external access otg with a cron script for updating the dns entries.

    Also remember to hide the whois info because you will immediately start getting calls from scammers that scrape the phone number and call you telling you that you need to pay them to finish setting things up

    Generic process is to register the domain, set up the DNS entries to point to your server IP, and if theres any dynamic DNS setup in your software, to enter the api key from your registrar and the domain so it can update it if your IP ever changes.

    The republicans have always gotten their way by obstructing everywhere they can and forcing negotiations even when they do not have the majority. The democratic leadership (e.g. hakeem jeffries and chuck schumer) throw their hands up and say “we cant do anything” and promptly do nothing or flip sides.

    Doing this sets a standard for democratic politicians and puts pressure on the democrats to do something, anything even if it is just to be a thorn in the republicans side. Any of them who continues to waste the little power they do have will have to face their own constituents who ask “if Booker can do that for 25 hours, where the fuck were you when we needed you to fight back against this”

    That seems pretty arbitrary

    0-2 would indicate negative, 0 being extremely bad and life changing and 2 pretty bad (worse than broken bones)

    3 which should be neutral is broken bones

    4-6 indicates success, but 4 seems to be just barely passing (e.g. landing it but with a fumble and falling) which doesnt seem to balance out a broken bone for 3 or something worse at 2




  • More clarification: this is more about clock speed. Having a fixed clock frequency is important for making sure that everything functions correctly. Transistors take a certain amount of time to turn on and off, which for the most part is a fixed time duration. This can change with temperature, voltage, and design.

    Trying to run the clock too fast may mean that parts of the device havent fully turned on or off, or signals havent fully propagated through for parts that chain transistors together.

    Some devices will have better transistor or worse transistors due to variations between batches and there can be some variation within a single part.

    The clock is therefore set to be in a range that gives the highest performance possible while also ensuring stability (some overhead to allow temp, power, noise and variation to not cause instability).

    The clocks in this case are running 0.57% faster which is negligible, and likely well within the margin of error, though this upward drift is a natural consequence of the aging of the components (specifically the quartz resonator that sets the frequency).

    Modern processors do the same thing as these processors, though they also allow variable clock speeds. This allows turning down the clock speed most of the time to save power when not much is going on. This also means there is also some minor overhead available on many cpus.

    This is where “overclocking” comes from. Turning up the clock speed until the device becomes unstable, adjusting the voltages, temperatures, power, noise, etc. to get more performance out of the same part.

    Adjusting just the clock doesnt account for the fixed timing of the transistors (thus changing voltages, temps), and theres less overhead on modern processors, so its more of a mixed bag of results. Additionally, the CPU itself can degrade over time, and this shrinks the overhead. For the either old or modern cpus, it may have had 10% of headroom, which would shrink over time due to cpu degredation to lets say 5%, so a 0.6% increase due to resonator degredation is negligible.

    Overclocking is also possible on older consoles, though with differing levels of success. These older consoles were designed with a fixed frequency, and as a result many games are not designed to account for differing framerates. This means running the game faster doesnt just mean a higher fps/smoother gameplay, but you may literally move twice as fast if the game runs twice as fast.

    That is the opposite of what the we should have learned from what happened with the Nazis and what Milgram experiment warned us of. Its the reason there’s memes about “just following orders.” If pressured, most people will just listen to what theyre told even if it means knowingly hurting someone.

    Passive acceptance is part of the reason Nazis were able to take over while not being the majority in Germany.
