In addition to the complaint tablet from Nanni, researchers also found several similar tablets in a room of Ea-Nasir’s house. Each of these tablets were from a different buyer, and all listed their frustrations with the business practices of the infamous trader. This shows archaeologists that Ea-Nasir had a frequent trend of fraud and scamming buyers, securing his place as history’s first conman.

Wow. After reading the whole translated letter, he had several! What an assir

Eighew! Ouarew?

Thanks :) here it is. Or search “origami letter”

I was kidding mostly but while travelling (no letters where I was staying) I did recently make, out of basically waste paper, an origami gift card holder I was proud of :) it opens up in the back and you can slide out the card. No tape, no glue. I can look for the website with instructions if you’re interested

I’m exclusively on Pinterest 100hours/week. (I forgot to close the tab with the image search for cool origami)

Keep using the Superflower my friend, and keep the Pico + Dell transformer as backup if the first fails. Maybe in a year or two you’ll find a great deal on a mobo+cpu combo that’s way more efficient and powerful anyway so all investments made now for a few watts will seem moot by then. Just my 2c.

Btw I also have an old Superflower but only 350W, and I recently got a used (barely) Seasonic Focus 550W in case I needed more wattage again (for multiple HDDs spinning up at boot or in case I bought a GPU again), also gold-rated. I was looking to get a Titanium or Platinum one but the price difference was still quite unjustifiable for my use case (idle server/NAS).

Another thing, I never bothered testing with a wattmeter (except the one on the UPS display) because I read that they’re a lot less accurate at the low wattages that we are discussing. Also the UPS alone causes some losses as well.

I don’t think a Platinum vs a Gold ATX rated PSU is going to make such a drastic difference on such low wattages, unless they’re made for low workloads. Efficiency is highest around half of the rated maximum load.

So something like a PicoPSU is likely more efficient, and if electricity is very expensive you could even make a return on that investment in 5-10years maybe…I wouldn’t worry too much about a 5-10W difference (unless the pc will be off-grid), at the same time a quality PSU will produce less heat and be more silent, will have a fanless mode built in, those are bigger advantages to me.

Lol what’s up with the guy walking behind her with a towel, is he trying to leave the planet?

Oh I see, thank you

I had the same experience (also European), but didn’t know the Americans changed it specifically for bytes

Getting out of the oceans was a mistake

Exactly, it’s very small for a “NAS”, that’s the main advantage. Sub 1liter if my math is right.

I agree that it should not be the goal for any modern civilization to copy Rome. They were not a just society, they had slavery for starters, but Roman citizens enjoyed a lot of personal liberty. If you were dirt poor you would not even have the time for a “nonproductive” relationship, if you’ll excuse my expression. Kids were a resource more than a cost.

I’m not an expert but I think “stigmatized” is too strong a word in this context, I’m sure they did joke around if a rumour or a hunch was spread about a person’s romantic affairs by the people who hated them for their success or by their enemies, I’m not sure they really cared that much otherwise. Of course before the christian emperors came along.

They’re not meticulous historians though. LGBTQ people were more accepted in the Roman Republic (and in ancient Greek) than today.

“Caius Julius Caesar: husband to all the wives, wife to all the husbands.” was a saying that my Latin professor taught us in school.

And an array of microphones. But it’s not like they have a clear view of their surroundings. Wait

Heat pump and dual direction charging are awesome though. I don’t imagine they’re using these kei cars between the cities when they can get high speed trains.

Nissan could easily take 5k off but has been hesitant/gradual with EV adoption just like the rest of the Japanese producers.

With a bench power supply (or a similar ghetto version, that is any lion charger plus leads) you can charge single cells even while they’re connected in series. That’s how battery balancing works

I’d start with very low amps and maybe low voltages too to revive them

Nice, good strategy

With all the low wattage usb chargers that all of us probably have at home my strategy is to only buy laptop chargers (so I can travel with just one) so usually minimum of 45W, for me ideally 65W (so 20V 3.25A) just because I have a few old thinkpads with the larger battery. A GAN 65W charger is as compact as an old 20W phone charger, look for example at the Anker Nano II which is the last one I bought.
