In theory, a sophisticated enough virus could certainly disable thermal shutdown protection, and then run things super hot to try and overheat the processor, but the thermal shutdown logic is pretty deep in the CPU and you might actually need a BIOS update to modify it.

Probably an easier route would be to just use whatever overclocking API you can to raise voltages way higher than they’re supposed to get. That’s essentially what caused problems with the last few generations of Intel processors to fail, except it was faulty power management logic and not a virus.

No, you should not “generalize” when those generalizations are negative and targeted at a specific group of people. That’s called stereotyping and is widely considered a bad thing.

That’s a pretty sexist outlook. I don’t think the image makes an entire 51% of the population angry. And I think people like Jeff Bezos show that not all men require “so little to be happy”. It’s almost like genders are not hive-minds, and generalizing anything that broadly is only going to result in looking like a boomer who complains about how terrible their spouse is.

Uhh, is that not just spellcheck? Try capitalizing the first letter of both underlined words (so it would be “Noah Bradley”) as both words are names which are always capitalized.

Same here. I only support those companies because they’re the best options for what they offer, and I’m not gonna let perfection get in the way of progress. Even though Mozilla is making some business choices I don’t agree with, I’m gonna keep recommending Firefox until some other non-Chromium browser comes along (which unfortunately isn’t gonna happen for a long time).

Same with AMD- they are so much more friendly to the open-source community than Nvidia or Intel, so I will recommend them to everyone, until the moment they start being worse. At that point, I’ll start recommending whoever seems best at that point in time.

You could always put it into service as a network wide ad blocker with PiHole. Might also speed up web browsing a bit too, since PiHole also works as a DNS cache.

I’m not sure I exactly understand what you’re asking, maybe some pictures would help?

I know it’s anecdotal, but my younger sister would go off-the-walls bonkers any time she had Red 40 as a kid. Which sucked, because I swear everything has red 40 in it, even stuff like white vanilla frosting. We would have to buy the “all natural” versions of a lot of stuff, which can get really pricey.

Point being, if there’s actual research corroborating the hyperactivity, then I completely support banning artificial dyes in schools. It will likely make the price of natural food dyes come down, or make dyes be excluded from foods in the first place, which is fine because kids don’t need neon colored lunches.

Start feeding it too, or get one of the neighbors who’s been feeding it to help out. Your best bet is a feral cat trap, which are kinda pricey, but if you call around to a few local rescues or “trap, neuter, release” programs, they may be able to lend you one. Then you can likely just use food to lure it into the trap.

Of course, if this cat used to be someone’s pet, you could even just try luring it into a garage or, hell, a big cardboard box, from which you could put some thick gloves on and transfer it into a pet carrier

That’s fair, although I think that depends a lot on the type of car you drive. There’s an option to tell Maps what type of car you drive (electric, hybrid, or gas), which will change the results, because cars with regenerative breaking often get better “city” milage than “highway” milage.

It also probably depends on factors like how aerodynamic your vehicle is, because it makes a huge difference above ~50mph (air resistance/drag increases exponentially with speed)
