It wouldn't be Rocko's Baselisk if it didn't do things that hurt.

It might also be completely unusable if it's going to be touched by human hands, as hands get sweaty, and sweat is salty water.

Obviously, most people don't replace their TV every year, so it was years after new sales were mostly LCDs that most people had LCDs, but companies making content like to be sure it looks good with the latest screens.

I think you might have misjudged when LCDs became common as by the end of 2004, when Halo 2 released, LCD TVs were already a reasonable fraction of new TV sales, and in parts of the world, it was only a few months later that LCD TVs became the majority. For PC monitors, the switch came earlier, so it was clear CRTs were on the way out while the game was being developed. If they hadn't expected a significant number of players to use an LCD and tweaked the game as much as necessary to ensure that was fine, it would have been foolish

That's what's keeping the lights on. If they sunk the extra billions into making their discrete cards genuinely superior to Nvidia's (which already means taking it for granted that selling comparable products for less money makes them knockoff rather than superior), then Nvidia could stop them recouping the development costs by eating into their own margins to drop their prices. Over the last decade or two, ATi/AMD's big gambles have mostly not paid off, whereas Nvidia's have, so AMD can't afford to take big risks, and the semi-custom part of the business is huge long-term orders that mean guaranteed profit.

There have been times it's been used against a whole carful of people, and cars are bigger than seven inches.

Much more straightforward in British English where d and t are more distinct

I'm glad to see someone's made this because it's been bouncing around in my head for ages but I've never got around to putting it together and letting it out.

It'll heat up the firebox, which is exactly what the firebox wants to happen. It's not like we're using precisely-timed explosives to briefly make the mass much more than critical and counter its desire to blow itself apart for long enough that it blows other things apart, too.

The press widely covered AV as if it was incredibly expensive and didn't solve any problems, so presented it as if we'd be throwing away beds at children's hospitals, support for pensioners and equipment for soldiers just to introduce pointless bureaucracy. If the choice was the one most voters thought they were making, then voting against it would have been the sensible option.

You can boost it by hollowing out the middle and filling it with tritium, but plutonium is dense, so 80 tons will probably fit in the firebox just fine.

Giving a country with a track record of violating treaties as long as Russia's anything that lets them feel like they gained from the war in return for a treaty saying they'll stop the war is going to cost more Ukrainian lives than continuing to fight, even to the last man. All a peace treaty like that achieves is vindicating Russia's decision to violate the last treaty. It doesn't stop the war, just pauses it while Russia rearms, so it can be even bloodier when it resumes than it would have been if it hadn't paused. If Ukraine can't make Russia lose, more Ukrainians (and more citizens of Russia's other neighbours who are at risk of being next in line) survive if they make Russia's victory pyrrhic so they learn that it isn't profitable to invade their neighbours again.
