Dell XPS 13 Snapdragon seems like it's trying to compete with the Air.

It's on https://www.thefarside.com/ today as one of the "Selections of classic The Far Side comics." Comic says ©1984, but doesn't give a specific date (an image on reddit suggests 4/6/84).
Sounds like it was a 2 petawatt pulsed laser, with picosecond pulses, so 2kJ/pulse. Staggering amount of power and energy for a pulsed laser!
Note that it's not CW, so the average power will be much, much, much less than the pulsed power. Too lazy to find the rep rate to see average power.
man rot13 ;)
I recently started using voice (SSB) on the HF ham bands, and have made contacts on 15, 17, 20, and 40m. No real DX, but made one foreign contact ~1000mi away and another domestic ~2000mi away.
I live in a city and it's challenging to get a good antenna setup, so it's always a compromise where I am.
Nothing very impressive by ham standards, but it's fun.
Oh I wasn't complaining, I was making a bad joke (the cartoon is a stalemate).
One of the coolest parts of The Expanse IMHO was that The Mormons commissioned a giant space ship, and it didn't feel forced or far-fetched.
Ugh, Lemmy is full of stale content.
(Edit: it's a joke. Stalemate/stale content...I chuckled at, and upvoted, the post.)
I've been super happy with it. Knock on wood it's been super reliable. I have a single ZFS drive, take snapshots with various retention policies, nothing fancy.
Another fun thing is to set up a reverse proxy on it as an endpoint for services on your local (home) network which can only be accessed by VPN. For example, my Jellyfin service isn't public facing, but I didn't want e.g. my parents to need to set up WireGuard. So instead they can point their TV to a raspberry pi on their network to access the service
even a first gen RPI can handle Jellyfin reverse proxy over WireGuard for moderate bitrates!
"Necessary, but not sufficient" sums up the role of a degree for a lot of jobs.
Remind me again, what color was Obama's scandalous suit?
Ah, good point!
