I tried the first two and didnt play more than 5 minutes. But nearly 100% the 3rd. Make that as you wish.

Video codecc didnt really exist when gifs were introduced, and mpeg1 required decoder hardware at the time. Wasnt really until mp4 became standard to retire gifs for good. (Lets just ignore the whole internet Flash phase)

Phone batteries would only give you an amp or so its completely impractical to power much.

Why yes, 19th century US was totally without corruption /s

How much ram do i need to download first?

Dimmers are incredibly simple with just triac and a variable resistor. However LEDs and CFLs do not work well with triac dimmers since they normally are expecting full voltage. Thats why you need “dimmable bulbs” becsuse they have circuitry to account for different voltages.

Its ironic to be complaining (or rather bullshitting) about japan restricting vehicle imports while the US is restricting imports of kei trucks for reasons.

Not true, everytime i put a cd on a record player, it ends up all scratched up.

You want a long drawn out answer? Ok then. Simple fact, our world is naturally dirty, just go outside in spring and you’ll breathe in untold amount of pollen everyday. Yet our lungs cope. How? By excreting mocus and its cilia to carry out foreign material out. However, if an excess amount of foreign material overwhlems the protections the lungs offers, then problems occurs. That of course ignores materials that are toxic, radioactive, or carcinogenic. So unless you are using a pencil made from pure carbon-14… its harmless.

If you wanted clarification or a ELI5, next time just ask instead of being passive agressive.

I mean water is toxic if you drink too much. The amount of dust of a pencil is negligible… now graphite from pencil production? Thats more concerning.

A banker that handles our money?

Until they are armed with auto turrets.

I setup an IVR on my parents landline and a whitelist to bypass it if they’re on the ‘contact list’. Doesnt stop manual callers, but it stops all the automated calls.

Only bad thing about amd gpus is the video transcoders are the weakest from the options. My jellyfin server, I installed an Arc a380 for $99. Cant beat it for the transcoding performance at that price.

The nazis were ethical compared to what was happening at Unit 731…

Well… i mean you could just run as root just like you would as as an admin user on windows. But that violates basic security principles.

Also, you gave up because you couldnt figure how to display hidden files?.. its litterally a setting in the file explorer program just like windows. Ctrl±H is a common shortcut to toggle it. Or in the terminal, the command is ‘ls -a’

Depending what your doing with the system, you shouldnt ever need to touch the terminal.

But without the terminal, you will struggle to have total control of the system and will be as limited as windows.

My oven doesnt have a clock. And dont rely on my car for the time. It cant even keep accurate time anyway.

What ever you do, dont tell RFK about raw cockroach milk.

America is already leading the world in the most incarcerated population… guns sure aint helping stop it.

I personally dont worry about because pcs usually get replaced after ~10 years anyway due to massive performance and efficiency increases.

Laptops would be the only exception if you rely alot on the battery.
