FactChecker replied to the thread Cooling a processor chip.Linux is a good option. I have switched my old laptop to it because it didn't have the hardware that Windows 11 wants. There might be a... -
I wouldn't disagree strongly with that; it might make sense - if it weren't that extra memory is so cheap and how future-proof does she...

FactChecker replied to the thread If you think having a backup is too expensive, try not having one.That is dangerous in companies that deal with classified data. A security person will see that, try it, and you will be fired. A...

FactChecker replied to the thread Cooling a processor chip.I agree that 4GB is marginal. I recommend that the memory usage be checked using the Performance Monitor. i5 3rd gen came out in 2012...

FactChecker replied to the thread Cooling a processor chip.In the Performance monitor, is the CPU or memory maxed-out? I don't understand what in FB requires a lot of CPU power.

FactChecker replied to the thread Cooling a processor chip.I'm surprised at that. For Windows 10, 4G RAM is a little tight, but should work. And I wouldn't expect processor speed to be an issue...

Like.
I think this is a good example of how mathematics works. You have to define the terms you use precisely. If we assume "midpoint"... -
FactChecker replied to the thread I Midpoint(s) of the unbounded number line.Yes. Any finite number is as good as any other. That goes too far. It's impossible to say that any number is "exactly halfway between...

FactChecker replied to the thread Complex Numbers (Laurent Series).Maybe I should have said, unnecessary or misleading or arbitrary. In any case, IMO, it is important to know and use the radius of...

FactChecker replied to the thread Complex Numbers (Laurent Series).It is simpler to add the series expansions of ##\frac{z}{z^3(z^2-2)}## and ##\frac{1}{z^3(z^2-2)}##. Both series are simple to derive...
