Thanks genius.

Keep me make it simpler back to you.

Maybe if you think real hard you can do more than just read the data.

If more defenders carried defensive weapons the results could be very different.

Don’t read into it to hard… I’m not pro gun. Is simply fact that if a defensive firearm were more available then the numbers would be different.

The fact that I have to explain this… Jeez… I dunno.

I have a vibe that this is anti gun propaganda.

When in reality if a good person with a gun had have been willing and available early enough the results could be vastly different.

Posts must match the context of the community.

Like no topless posts wearing underpants in a pussy community for example.

Haven’t seen it get out of control here yet, but it’s madly out of control at Reddit with mods actively not caring about it.

Why have categories if posters are going to ignore them.

Every living creature is entitled to an equal portion of useful surface area of the earth proportional to their size and space requirements.

Not like that has anything to do with us possibly living out of a car next year if rent rises 30% again for the 3rd year running.

Fuck landlords hoarding property.

Yep. There was an assumption 20 years ago when common switches were 100Mbps and running cat5e that you’d have to upgrade cable to get the next speed tier, 1Gbps.

It propagated wildly, but was always incorrect. Cat5e was very much capable of gigabit Ethernet by design.

It was only beyond gig that you’d need cat6, and even then at short lengths 2.5/5/10Gbe has a good chance of working on cat5e anyway (but don’t do it).

High quality cat 5e would have done the job.

Original cables must have been faulty.

Some how I automatically read this in Greta Thungerg’s voice.

How dare you!

This is verifiable in manufactures data sheets.

Efficiency at less than 20% and greater than 80% loads isn’t great relative to in between those ends.

This is compounded by lower wattage PSUs being more limited with regard to features and benefits.

If you end up with a 650w PSU and your system idles at 80 watts for the bulk of a working day you spend long periods of time in this less efficient window.

We need to see some quality 300w to 600w designs come back onto the market.

That’s some Total Recall shit there. Love it.

From Chinese parts

That’s what anti islanding is.

Prevents power from going into the grid when it’s down.

Way I read it is it puts surplus into the grid to keep you elec bills down.

800 watts isn’t exactly going to set an outlet on fire.

Good police need good tools to respond to anything that could happen.

Imagine a 9/11 variation with an armed group instead of planes.

That’s going to need a rapid and powerful police response. Armed forces are not an option with such short notice.

The real issue you should concern yourself with the the quality of the police themselves, not the tools they used.

I’ll back you any day on that front.

2 is fine.

I know where you’re coming from, I use a closed notebook with external display sometimes.

I might need to be more specific. If the notebook is used as a typical notebook, and one closes it with the intent of putting it to sleep, once sleep has been reached an external mouse should not wake it.

However if you do toggle the power settings to allow the machine to function with the lid closed and/or machine docked then you do want to mouse to wake it keep awake the machine.

Okay… then by that logic you’re ok with America’s defence forces being deployed against citizens?

I don’t think you understand the meaning of multi purpose.

This used to be so much easier back in win 95,98,xp days.

There was a startup folder in the start menu and all you needed to do was drag what you wanted into it.

This is an example of something that got harder.

Had this issue for years over 2 machines.

One had some shit in the background the prevented standby.

Other was so simple it pissed me off… … the damn mouse jostling around in the laptop bag was walking it up.

I’m still going to point the finger at windows because 1) there should be a better tool for identifying what is keeping a system awake and 2) should be default for a mouse to not wake a portable machine who’s lid is shut.

The most simple answer.

Ads or commercials are typically an interruption to the content I was wishing to watch.

Your post misses the entire point.

While us nerds can work out problems and use a terminal, it doesn’t mean we’re happy to spend our time trouble shooting instead of actually getting shit done.

And the fact that so many of these basic issues should exist in the first place leaves one with the sour taste that they have to hold the OS’s hand forever.

If it has anti islanding at least it’s unlikely to be a shock hazard.

That said are there any other concerns I’m missing?
