Always remember to get a receipt when going to the bathroom.

Fuck Everything, We're Doing Sixteen Octects

ArduPilot is GPL3, dude.
Since the drones were end-user devices, you can direct your complaints to /dev/nul

What you need is the Soldierbot v2.1 license, but that has different, questionable, encumbrances.

Back in my day, I remember:

1. Dr Who figured out the plot using reason and logic.
2. He didn't run around waving his sonic screwdriver like a magic wand.
3. Less running around and explosions.
4. Occasionally he would have a companion not from 20th/21st century Earth.

Also, CGI has gotten so cheap and effective, it's being over used.

I've got my asbestos longjohns on as a precaution, but you know I'm right.

Do you draw any distinction between bitcoin and other crypto?

In California, if you have PG&E, in the summer, from 4pm to 9pm, energy is (depending on rate plan) around 60 cents per kwh. So I recommend that you turn off your AC by 4pm unless your own home solar or batteries can cover it.

I live in California. On our rate plan (the only one available for those who have solar) the peak rate in the summer, in effect from 4pm to 9pm, is 61 cents per kWh. The lowest rate is 35 cents per kWh for winter off-peak.

Reply and let me know what the peak rate is where you live so we can compare.

My house has solar and are looking into batteries so we can avoid using utility power from 4-9pm. Until recently we had net metering which was great. But I guess that agreement expired and now net metering is not available to us.

Canonically, we don't know that Data didn't self-accessorize after his construction. It seems like he would have been perfectly capable of doing so.

Not sure if we should hand this discussion to a grad student or AI.

I agree that robot designers should embrace carcinisation , but we must be pragmatic and recognize the obvious need for tentacles.

You are right except, since the tax credit is still available through this calendar year, you can be sure there will be a flurry of activity between now and end of year. This should be a banner year for solar suppliers (which includes not just the panels, but the racks, batteries, inverters, optimizers, etc., etc).

These are not image forming. The contacts just emit visible light when they are subjected to IR.

Subjects were able to perceive the direction of an IR light source while wearing the contacts. Which I figured must be the case. They would have to get the light to form a focused image on the retina for it to be an image forming system. Considering that the nanoparticles are getting lit up and are re-radiating in random directions, there is no way it would form an image.

In a fair world, companies chasing AI would be paying market rates for electricity, with no increase on other customer's rates.

In this world, poor neighborhoods get to choke on pollution from AI datacenters.

Probably should start by teaching critical thinking, basic math and logic to their teachers first.

Maybe they need to go back to teaching critical thinking, basic math and logic so the next generation is prepared to identify fundamentally incorrect analysis.

IBM model M is how you get your own office. Or locked in the basement.
