    @Mik said in Celebrating the death of a SCOTUS justice: they are the equal of any of Trump's blusters DId Trump do the same for public figures who had died? Sincere question. But, even if he had, the people who criticize him (Greenwald and the guy at Rolling Stone) lost any standing in any debate about "high ground."

    Notebooks are not typically used for long-term computation-intensive tasks. It is reasonable to optimize for small bursts of CPU power, as Apple is doing. Better cooling would negatively affect size and weight. For typical office stuff, CPU performance simply doesn't matter. I'm currently using a 2014 MBPro and a 2019 MBPro. Theoretically, the latter should be orders of magnitude faster. In practice, I rarely ever notice a difference.

    Thanks everyone. Had a very relaxed day, but more sober than I would like as I was one taxi duty in the evening. Bloody kids have no respect for the elderly.

    I’m not surprised, but that’s totally irrelevant to my point.

Yep, IMO it’s pretty much everything we knew in March.

    Here's what some friends are telling me. It's true that the covid numbers associated with going out to the club's and bars are very low, but it's because the bars and clubs have been doing a very good job of following safety practices. No one I've talked to give any support to the claims regarding the mayor.

    @Axtremus said in The Washington Post mourns RBG's death: @George-K, how would you write the headline for Scalia? Or, for that matter, how would you write the headline for Ginsburg? Old lady clings to job and prevents equality on the court.

    Interesting story. Thanks for sharing. They did mention that Taiwan offers rewards to mainland Chinese pilots to defect. I dont know if they still do, but at one point, it was about USD$1 MM to defect with a certain type of plane.

    Would riding a dirt bike, doing jumps with it and just messing around in general out in the boondocks count? I know it was good for upper body strength.
