The pentium 4's highest bandwidth anywhere was 48GB/s through the L2 cache. The PCIe 5.0 x16 on an RTX 5060 Ti can do roughly 64 GB/s in each direction. Obviously the bandwidth in and out of the Pentium 4 are quite a bit lower than the fastest thing in the whole chip... so there's no feasible way for a pentium 4 to deliver the maximum bandwidth to a 5060 Ti.

Also, the early Pentium 4 CPUs didn't have EM64T, so the maximum addressable memory was 4GB. So some Pentium 4 CPUs are unable to use all the memory on a 5060 Ti. This almost makes it sound like one of these personified hardware components is irrational...

To copy things into GPU memory from system memory, the CPU needs an address to copy it to. There are some ways around the 4GB limit with e.g. PAE, but the limitation that a single application can only use 32 bits of memory addresses applies regardless. With CUDA there's definitely ways to fill the memory of the GPU with something - you might even be able to make limited use of it - but it's not all addressable at once from any general context, and it won't be useful for gaming purposes in any way I'm aware of.

I guess it's also worth a mention that some Pentium 4 systems didn't have PCIe - just the prior PCI, so there might need to be some kind of adapter thing in the picture for this to work out at all, and I don't know whether those do some kind of DMA, impersonation of the older standards, or something else entirely.

It probably just isn't a good idea to connect a modern GPU to a 25 year old processor.

Miller lite is 12 fl oz, 4.2% ABV. A baseball game is typically 2.5 hours long. Assuming a 200 lbs man, and using the calculator.net BAC calculator, drinking 3-5 beers over the course of the game will leave him in the "buzz" range between 0.02% and 0.06% BAC at the end of the game.

Consuming 23 beers over the course of the game will result in a 0.38% BAC, which calculator.net helpfully describes with:

"Stupor, central nervous system depression, loss of understanding, lapses in and out of consciousness, low possibility of death"

In metric:

Miller lite is 0.355 liters, 4.2% ABV. A batball game is typically 9 kiloseconds long. Assuming a 90.71847 kg man, and using the calculator.net BAC calculator, drinking 0.3-0.5 decabeers over the course of the game will leave him in the "buzz" range between 0.02 metric% and 0.06 metric% BAC at the end of the game.

The calculator.net BAC calculations assume a linear reduction in BAC over time, so as long as you start drinking at the beginning of the game, and never get down to 0% before you finish drinking it works out the same under those assumptions.

I remember the great lakes with HOMES.

I have an uncle that was a police officer. When he got out of doing highway patrol, he was relieved, because that was the most dangerous job for police. I pictured high speed chases, drivers pulling weapons, catching wanted criminals... (I was approximately 10 at the time)

It turned out it's because walking on the side of a highway is insanely dangerous, and a driver obliviously hitting you sounds and looks almost the same as a driver responsibly passing by.

His state rolled out flashing lights that were better at grabbing attention, and that cut the total deaths for all police by something like 10%.

1. Give your best battle scream.

2. Run directly into the nearest woods.

3. Protect her from nearby bears, particularly aggressive squirrels, other men that are doing a battle scream in the woods, etc.

4. Once she is safely past, resume normal activities.

Under "Stunned Nation Reacts" I guess they argued it should be left up to the states... Which is a defense of it, in the context of the time.

Ok, so I think the timeline is, he signed up for an unlimited storage plan. Over several years, he uploaded 233TB of video to Google's storage. They discontinued the unlimited storage plan he was using, and that plan ended May 11th. They gave him a "60 day grace period" ending on July 10th, after which his accouny was converted to a read only mode.

He figured the data was safe, and continued using the storage he now isn't really paying for from July 10th until December 12th. On December 12th, Google tells him they're going to delete his account in a week, which isn't enough time to retrieve his data... because he didn't do anything during the period before his plan ended, didn't do anything during the grace period, and hasn't done anything since the grace period ended.

I get that they should have given him more than a week of warning before moving to delete, but I'm not exactly sure what he was expecting. Storing files is an ongoing expense, and he's not paying that cost anymore.

Numbers guy here, I can confirm 256 is an evenly specific number, and not an oddly specific number.

Owls don't weigh 16 pounds (except for fat owls). 300 kilowatts is a rate of energy, not a total quantity of energy. 300 kilowatt hours (which is possibly what they meant?) Is only around 260,000 kilocalories (which is called "calories" on food labels because units of measure were made up by humans). According to an extremely naive google search, that would only take an owl 5 years to consume, rather than 10. If the original number were correct, that would mean this owl eats 8,000 calories per day. Which is not typical.

Onto the broader point, the efficiency of birds in flight is not as simple as this image suggests. There is no (useful) formula that takes the weight of a bird and the distance it will fly and tells you how many calories that takes. Birds can fly at different elevations, at different speeds. They can fly with or against the wind. They can change many things about how they fly to be more efficient or less efficient.

If you really want to know how many calories it takes for an owl to cross the ocean, first get the owl to the point of starvation, then bring it on a boat to the middle of the ocean. Feed it a fixed number of Tootsie pops, then sink the boat. With nowhere else to land, the owl will be forced to fly to shore. Based on how far the owl makes it, you can determine how far each tootsie pop allowed it to fly, and derive calories per mile from that.

"You wouldn't put on a tricorn hat, would you?"

I actually would, if I could find a nice one...

"...and leave your job to sail the seas?"

... That's an option? I didn't even consider-

"And you certainly wouldn't drink rum, and fire cannons, and carry a saber and tell silly parrot related puns."

Technically, Frankenstein's Monster was the author, and Dr. Frankenstein himself was the real Mary Shelley we made along the way.

The restaurant didn't murder the guy, but the reviewer requested a seat in the non-murdering section, so seating him right next to it loses a star.

There's a lot of answers here, but I don't think anyone said the magic words. To reseason cast iron, you need an oil high in poly-unsaturated fatty acids. Those are the kind that can chain together, and form a good polymer coating.

The thing that trips me up most about this subject is that 140 years ago, pork fat was very good for seasoning cast iron. Today, it isn't, because the composition of the fat has changed significantly.

The best seasoning coats will be thin, not appear or feel oily, give the pan a dark color slightly more glossy than an eggshell, and resist mild detergents, metal spatulas, and heat high enough to sear a steak on. If you have a layer of loose stuff in the pan, that's just a layer of gunk, and is probably adding some weird flavors to anything you cook.

If a 12 oz can at 5% ABV once per day makes you feel liver pain, there's probably something wrong with your liver, and maybe the drinking life isn't for you.

When a monopoly is faced with a smaller, more efficient competitor, they cut prices to keep people from switching, or buy the new competitor, make themselves more efficient, and increase profits.

When Steam was faced with smaller competition that charged lower prices, they did - nothing. They're not the leader because of a trick, or clever marketing, but because they give both publishers and gamers a huge stack of things they want.
