double length bus has to be one of dumbest ideas i've ever seen. jams up a whole block every time it tries to turn. usually at least half empty and not helping anything. double decker. brits figured it out already.

nobody equated china to north korea. the post you are replying to applied equivalent logic to an extreme example (north korea) to show more easily that the logic cannot be correct.

yet we know the results of presidential elections before all the votes are tallied, or have a pretty sure guess

in other words, someone didnt like the election results

Might make things awkward but grokipedia seems way more informative on this topic to me. But I guess I am unfamiliar with the topic so half of it could be hallucination. Curious if anyone familiar with this subject wants to weigh in?

Wasn't there a whole storyline about rebels starving in that episode of Andor?

The article makes it sound as if magnetism arises because of a delay in the propagation of the electric field caused by a limit on the speed of light. It's kinda the other way around. Light is a alternating electric field and the speed of it's propagation is limited by the ε0 and μ0 (electric permittivity and magnetic permeability) in Maxwell's equations. From Maxwell you can derive c^2=1/(ε0*μ0). Lorentz and Einstein came along and realized that this changes all of mechanics, and that is special relativity.

not a single one of those points is true lol

Not to mention pacman is way faster than the others. dnf is close but apt is unbearably slow once you've used pacman

except the biggest buyer is our own social security fund

wait, we skipped the part where we found out microplastics were bad for you. concerning, yes, but plastic is relatively inert and there's no actual evidence of harm yet.

furthermore, ive never even seen a usb-c connector at an airport or for any public use and i doubt i ever will. hell, even IEC can barely withstand that use case,i usually have to bend my prongs for the plug to stay in. usb-c not gonna make it 3 days.

manufacturer's compliance with the specification has always been a total joke heh. i see what you're saying about the springs, but i shouldn't have brought mating cycles into the discussion. the side plugged into the motherboard should just be secure above all else. i can easily ruin any usb-c connector with just my thumb and index finger. the thickness of the A shell and its square profile prevent it from bending under torque pretty darn well.

perhaps. but thats why you have the C at the other end because it doesnt make sense to be frequently plugging things in and out of the motherboard and and wearing down those connectors.

but i doubt you will get more cycles out of C in real life. that might be what the spec says but given the pitch of the pins on the C connector compared to the A, you have a world of greater tolerance to work with
