No, they are smaller. The largest size is 30cm which is enough for me though. The most expensive one with that size costs 11,50€. Another delivery place has 32cm ones. Most expensive there is 9,40€. There is nothing inherently wrong with them. They aren’t from an Italian restaurant though and aren’t the same quality you would get in a real restaurant. They still taste good and satisfy your pizza cravings though. Delivery is free too if you’re over the minimum order balance. From what I’d guess they are on the are more like those fast food pizza places like Pizza Hut or Domino’s but I’ve ordered like maybe once from them so I’m not sure.

Maybe we both use deliveries differently. If I order something for delivery I don’t expect Restaurant quality food. If your pizza is from a Italian restaurant and is really well made/restaurant quality I see why it’s so expensive. For me delivery is more “fancy” than fast food but not as “fancy” as actually eating in a real restaurant

Yeah sounds expensive to me. Also a German. 1 Pizza delivered is around 10€ that’s it. But that wouldnt get me over the minimum delivery order though. Not a problem for me yet since I’ve never ordered a pizza only for myself

But that’s the thing about induced demand. Of course widening a road temporarily improves traffic. But only temporary. That temporary improved leads to more people deciding to drive a car when they didn’t in the past or even having different moving options in mind now which they didn’t because if traffic. In the end traffic ends up the same if not worse than before. That’s not something the Internet came up with. It’s been studied and researched for years. It works on the simple principle of: If you make something more convenient to use, more people will use it. Cars just don’t scale. They can’t do mass transport and aren’t meant for that. You need to make a city walkable and have a proper public transport system otherwise you will only ever lose even more money on car infrastructure while continuing to worsen traffic, heating up the city because of the sealed surfaces, making the city less desirable to actually exist in and worsening it’s economy. Build the city properly and people will actually choose a different option. No matter the climate in that city. Especially because heat is only worse with massive amounts of car infrastructure because they usually result in less green spaces and trees which provide shade and a cooling effect in the city.

Induced demand actually means that more people drive now because the people that didn’t drive in the past / lived somewhere else because it was less convenient because of the traffic to commute by car or live somewhere else where they would have needed a car now decide to commute by car / actually move (yeah that also something we have observed) because the widening temporarily improved traffic. In the end traffic ends up the same if not worse. Induced demand isn’t something the Internet has come up with. It’s actually a real thing that has been studied and researched. We know it exists. It functions on the basic principle of: If you improve something and make it more convenient to use that something, more people will actually use it.

That’s the thing: Technically yes. It temporarily improves traffic. But only temporarily. IDK about you but spending billions of dollars to only temporarily improve traffic and then it ending up the same or even worse than before doesn’t sound like a good investment to me.

That’s the whole thing about induced demand though: People want to get somewhere and believe it or not, not everyone does so by car. But if you decide to add more lanes it temporarily improves traffic leading to those people that didn’t take a car in the past or lived somewhere else because they knew traffic would be horrible if they moved, to actually commute by car now / go forth with their plan to move, increasing the amount of traffic again until it’s as bad if not even worse than before. Cars don’t scale. Cars aren’t for mass transport and shouldnt be used for that. A city with a highway like in the picture really needs a transit system/a better one and fever lanes

Afaik, no. Japanese either uses 音読み onyomi = Chinese reading (literally “sound reading”, 音 = sound, 読み = reading) and 訓読み Kunyomi = Japanese reading (訓 has multiple kanji meanings. I learned it as “instruction”. Sites list the meanings as 訓 = instruction, Japanese character reading, explanation, read) for words that have kanji (Chinese characters). The original Chinese characters don’t have a “Japanese reading” afaik. They are Chinese after all.

Idk I feel like buying a cat with your groceries was a bit too much. Should have just skipped the groceries and only bought the cat

to my severe problems

You mean the problems the fascist just made up and actually aren’t a really problem

Yeah thats a problem I frequently see. People arguing that we should solve “the problems” and then naming things that fascists made up and actually aren’t real problems. How does one solve a problem that doesn’t exist but people have been made to think it exists by lying fascists? Telling them that what the fascists say is a lie won’t help either cause they are not willing to accept other opinions

Thought about that too. Honestly the improvement is 100% worth it anyway but I’ll keep the original fans and shroud so I can swap them if I ever sell the card

I bought 2 adapters from EK Water Block on caseking. Might be a bit more expensive then some options on amazon but with EK I know I have a product from a reputable brand. Here is the link to caseking: https://www.caseking.de/ek-water-blocks-ek-cable-pwm-fan-adapter-fuer-gpu-50cm-waek-1347.html?flxSmartSuggest=1

The push the air on the card, like normal GPU fans also do

Just got a reply from Arctic via Twitter and they said that the new revision of the black P12 max also use a fluid dynamic bearing. Idk how to make sure you get the new revision though

The max fans are great. The black one has been out for a while now with a lot of positive reviews but it uses ball bearings which have a tendency to be a bit louder (it’s still incredible given its price. See reviews) The white one was just recently released and Arctic gave it an upgrade with a fluid dynamic bearing, further reducing the noise during low rpm

I got a GPU fan to normal pwm case fan adapter. There are a lot on amazon but I cant guarantee their quality. I ordered 2 adapters from EK Water Blocks on caseking. With 4,90€ per adapter they might be more expensive than some options on Amazon but with EK Water Blocks I know I have an adapter from a reputable brand

Anyone know what I can do with the old fans and shroud haha

Idle temps are down about 10°C (probably also because the new fans dont completely stop spinning even on 0% for some reason. But you cant hear them at all so idc). In Furmark temp is down 4°C while being inaudible now. Keep in mind I havent changed the fan curve at all and it was tuned to be as quite as possible with the OG fans. Resulted in higher temps in the past but I just wanted to keep those OG fans as low spinning as possible because they were really loud at higher rpm. Oh and this mod is a rather common one. Usually with noctua fans though, which is why its called a noctua fan mod. But Arctic is way less expensive and their P12 Max fans are incredibly impressive

Edit: In games in might be an even bigger improvement temp wise. Noise wise its like night and day. I cant even hear the GPU fans anymore. I can hear the coil wine better than my fans now lol

The noise. I use open back headphones and even though its possible to ignore the noise when you have in-game sounds, it still bothered me whenever there was a quite scene, or I didnt use my headphones and I just didnt like my room to sound like a jet engine in general. So yeah the noise is why I replaced them

I was actually surprised how little is going on in this sub considering the 13.7k subscribers. And thanks!
