Best case is if gaming and productivity (with high memory use) activities are not concurrent, and productivity applications are stopped before gaming starts, then `swapoff` can easily release swap device without restart.

In our lab tests phase lock jitter between WR client and master is about 10ps (picoseconds) over 50km fiber (with temperature change of the fiber, so WR actively compensates elongations), so relative clock of one system can be transmitted with about that accuracy to another.

P.S. There is WR workshop this week with some talks being publicly available on CERN's indico website.

Please comsider adding log-scales to be able to compare related but wastly different in popularity topics. Also would be nice to show one topic versus another to see a correlation.

Thanks.

Rivers (e.g. Mississipi) work with much smaller gradient of just 0.01% [1], while with your assumption it would be 0.25%, so 25x.

Maybe instead it needs to pass under the rivers [2: cross-section] surrounding New-York, which may be much deeper, especially when it comes closer to the bay passing Queens and Brooklyn [2: map]

As of now, for testing, the two WR endpoints are sitting on the same desk with 50km fiber in a thermal chamber (simulating temperature changes in the soil), but in future they will be separated indeed.

As a user of WhiteRabbit, I can confirm a sub-10ps sync (two clocks phase lock) over 50km fiber connection for variable temperature of fiber (biggest problem of clock sync over fibers is temperature induced length change of the fiber itself, which needs to be measured and compensated).

Nature (laws of physics) is agains you on this: it is in fact impossible for everyone. What is in sync for some observers can be out of sync for others (depends on where they are, i.e. gravity, and how they relatively move). See general and special relativity principle of simultaneity [1].

Many reactors are built far away from coasts, they need water in general, but artificial lakes, or rivers are enough.

Actually even within Apple ecosystem not all devices are made equal. MacBooks lack some features available for AirPods Pro on iPhones, e.g. seal check, translation, everything in the "accessibility" category: button press duration settings, single-airpod noise-cancelling, etc.

Android obviously is out of the game totally for AirPods - no spacial audio, no changes of ANC, no battery level, but at least ANC modes can be changed on AirPods directly, and button press works to answer calls, and pause/play audio, and also volume control works.

I'm three-generation Airpods Pro (around 5 years) user on Android and Macbook (no iPhone at all). In first and second generation there was a "bug" (or intentional feature) that even when connected to Android, and not being connected to my Mac, the latter was showing the charge level on both Airpods, but at some point it was removed.

In first and second generation I had an issue with one AirPod making strange noises, in both cases even Apple Support at the Genius Bar didn't know what to make out of it that I don't use AirPods with iPhone, but only with a Mac (and Android).

I would actually consider sticking the opposite "Nuclear power? Yes, please!" (Same for solar, wind, geothermal of course). Is there a sticker for pro-nuclear power movement?

P.S. There's a nice recent video to have a glimpse into nuclear power plant safety in action: https://youtu.be/v0afQ6w3Bjw

When one gets snippets from Stack Overflow, he/she doesn't assume it is tailored specifically for the task, so extra check, modification are applied. With copilot people (eventually, especially beginners probably) will assume that the code produced by "magic" AI does exactly what they asked for.
