I personally dont think it will succeed in actually reducing the labor force that much. Its the eyeballs, brains and finger dexterity they wont match for quite some time. We can see a problem and respond with appropriate novel solutions. I mean just stuff falling over and all the other everyday things, we do that aren't on thr official agenda. Theyll have 1 real guy following around the bucket of bolts fixing his mistakes.

    Since its not like the cpu or gpu is going to change, they can tune a power supply to produce as little waste heat at expected power delivery ranges. If its in the path of the air in the cooling solution, it should be fine. The additional heat load should bet a drop in the bucket and likely a degree or two of overall system temp rise at most.

    The advantages of no external brick falls in line with the ease of use priority valve has had with this design. Its not going to pull the device off a shelf, and its not going to get buried in the back of furniture where it wont get any air flow.

    I bought an open box pump for my pool cover and save 100 bucks. It was missing the threaded part the hose attaches to, so it was useless. That is, until I 3d printed a replacement. I also made spares for when this weak point breaks in the future.

    Is repairing it an option? Then you'll have saved the money and the item.

    I bumped into it on PBS. That is why I'm posting about it here. We need publicly funded programming, museums, research, meteorological and tidal data gathering and forecasting, and on and on... All of these things hurt.

    This one's bugging me because they want to hide the past, so its hard for folks to figure out who their cribbing from today. Not only is it hiding the harm of their actions, its making it harder to get enough people to realize what's really going on so we can get real change. We really are going backward right now.
