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.

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.

You've made my point well.

Absolutely I've already learnt it, and I don't intend to stuff around translating. At first it's one thing, maybe not cumbersome but then many things become a hassle.

Master and slave are not in and of themselves offensive words. You just assign offence to them, based on certain specific context, again proving my point.

Sometimes it's not about typing.

In the electronics works the us a serial protocol called SPI Serial Peripheral Interface.

In schematics we might have a micro controller that connects to several sensors or memory chips on a pair of pins, 1 each for transmit and receive.

The micro controller is the master and the common nomenclature for the pin names is MISO and MOSI MasterInSlaveOut and MasterOutSlaveIn.

This overcomes confusion with regard to using things like TXD and RXD.

Wokeness has now suggested a bunch of alternatives.

PICO PeripheralInControllerOut and POCI... are the 2 leading alternatives.

Problem is I now have data sheets and schematics going back to the 1980s

It's bullshit to me.

Words can have more than one meaning. Context and meaning matter.

I just want design cool electronics.

Was curious to see if I was affected.

Turns out I have it installed via F Droid so a non issue for me.

Just a reminder that there are alternative app stores for some things.

Not a perfect solution for all, but well worth looking into if you want so start sourcing things outside of Google's monopoly store.

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.
