That aircraft carrier had the best combat record in the Russian Navy too, took out a floating dry dock all on its own using the element of surprise!
I’m sure they are.
Ukraine better be careful in case their peer ever shows up.
and the Eastern successfully smothered the fscists with meat
We didn’t care about replacing him.
If he’d been … remotely fucking human, we would have been fine tolerating him forever so long as he didn’t throw kids into blenders.
Now, he chose to give us no choice, he’s gotta be gone.
This is something I’ve felt we’ve needed for a long time, but cloudscalers have their own environments that include resource management and beyond dev, if anything goes wrong they either reboot the net image or offline it for maintenance.
This is something I’ve wanted to throw together, will give it a try soon, could even be useful for development.
2 obvious ones are McNulty (Dominic West) in the wire (not his accent, but a british one, and it’s horrifying), and Hugh Laurie in House who uses a British accent once, though again a different accent than his own.
We really need them for boomers, for the world’s sake.
Nobody wants it, they just want brighter lights for themselves to compensate for being blinded by the brighter lights of others, but actually to retaliate, nobody can have brighter brights than me!
We’d need regulations for this, which we’d never get, especially after the Chevron doctrine was reversed.
Poles: “Don’t invite them over for beer…”
Hello.
As someone who’s in the space and has been around Qcomm and their deals before.
It won’t happen.
They will flirt like you can’t imagine, they will propose, make offers, etc.
But closing the deal? No.
They are very smart, and Intel is too big for them to dismantle and exploit with value.
Their interest is not in Intel belonging to them, but in a large, Intel shaped hole in the market that they can attack, and their discussions are more likely about Intel’s roadmaps so they can understand how they could best exploit Intel’s fall.
They are unlikely to even hire some of Intel’s spoils, maybe a few strategic VPs, but… they’re just smart and ruthless and Intel is the dregs and bloated nowl.
The only way they’d do it is if the government sweetened it such that Intel was basically free, and they could fire as many as they want in a reasonable period, basically letting them own Intel without any cost at all. That is possible depending on how desperate the government is to prevent their fall, but I don’t think anyone can make the right promises in time.
Oh, my bad. That makes perfect sense and I have no objections for purely thermal storage.
It said steam to customer, my brain filled that in with turbine.
What would you like your tombstone to say?
His comment, or the country as a whole?
Both are complete fucking jokes at this point.
Largest permanent submarine fleet in the world…
We have talibangelicals here just like in Afghanistan, they both demand sharia law, just their sharia law.
100%
We need to build a wall around bibi and his settlers, and Hamas, and let them not be our problem anymore, bibi hijacked the whole course of events.
I really miss Barak, but anybody serious about peace learned the lesson of Rabin.
I can buy all of it, near perfect heating, but 2% for their forced air circulation combined with turbine and generation losses? Seems too good to be true.
Chatgpt (because we’re all lazy) :
Total Thermal to Electrical Efficiency
The overall thermal-to-electrical efficiency of a power plant, often referred to as plant efficiency, is the product of the steam turbine efficiency and the generator efficiency. Typical overall efficiencies for fossil-fuel-based steam turbine power plants (e.g., coal, natural gas) range from 33% to 40%.
In more advanced configurations like combined cycle power plants, which recover waste heat from the steam turbine exhaust to generate additional electricity, efficiencies can reach 50% to 60%.
Calculation Example:
If the steam turbine has an efficiency of 40%, and the generator has an efficiency of 98%, the total thermal-to-electrical efficiency would be:
\text{Total Efficiency} = 0.40 \times 0.98 = 0.392 \text{ or } 39.2%
So, for every 100 units of thermal energy input, 39.2 units are converted into electrical energy.
And that’s if you’re just heating the water before it hits the turbine, including the air circulation and basic entropy (there’s a limit to how much you can pull out via heat differential), it seems like it should go down from there.
What I’m saying, it clearly doesn’t look like it should be OK.
