Yea, I think the limits are going to top out around that 300Hz mark, it's going to be really hard to convince people they can see or feel a difference between 300Hz and 480Hz. I have no preference between 240Hz and 300Hz already.

For computer monitors, I also wouldn't be surprised if we top out at 4k for regular consumers, with a few niche 8k products available.

Laser tag.

It's really dropped off as a sport over the last thirty years. I think kids get the same rush from video games these days.

Mistakenly watched life is beautiful at a drunken party in high school. Still remember everything.

Great movie that I will never watch again.

It's funny that you think America isn't pulling the strings from the start.

Starting?

Israel and Iran have been at war for decades.

Hand sanitizer frequently works too.

Depends on what you mean by devices.

My wife and I have two vehicles, this has been important when one failed for a bit.

Theres enough computers and cellphones in my home to restart civilization after a collapse.

I can't think of any electronic device I couldn't be without for at least a few days without serious issues.

The most critical thing that could go out is the power, and I have little control over that but at least my local power company is amazing at restoring service around here. We've never been out for more than 24 hours in the last decade.

They do exist, google floating pool filters/chlorinators.

There's no way it's viable for that fare. It will fail just like most of the other attempts at convenience ferries around here.

This isn't even Conservatives, it's the alt-right.

Some of them need to be publicly humiliated, rather than simply ignored.

 

Intent to injure?

Based on that call, any sort of pushing or shoving should be called.

 

Unfortunately, it looks like he's going to elected in a couple years. I just hope people remember after a term of the Conservatives cutting important environmental policies like the carbon tax, that they will have failed to make like more affordable AND fucked up the environment more.

The conservative parties that won in the UK didn't manage to make things more affordable, the conservative party that won in Australia didn't manage it either, no party anywhere has managed it.

This crisis isn't caused by local government zoning policies, approval red tape, or anything else that the parties are talking about. It's caused by landowners (including people who own only one property) using a home as an investment.

You cannot have homes appreciate in value faster than inflation (investments) and also have affordable housing. It's impossible. That's literally just a pyramid scheme.

Until the government starts implementing policies that start reducing existing home prices, this will not be fixed. Building more units doesn't do this unless you build impossibly (literally impossible) large numbers.

So stop voting with your emotions and vote with your brain.

 

In case anyone was wondering what happened at the grocery stores over the last couple days.

 

I love Mattias Krantz and his wacky music projects.

 

Because reasons?

 

Somewhat clickbait title, it went from 80% to 89% of new unit starts for this one month period compared to last year.

Apartment units have been the majority of new units for more than a decade now.

 

More technical issues. The ferries are starting to become a real issue here on the island.
