Cool. I'll buy the property upstream from you and dump tons of chemicals into the stream every fucking day. You can't do shit, because of my property owners' rights.
And since we don't need Big Gov telling us how to live our lives, I will keep polluting and you can't stop me.
See what you did, dumbass?
Submission + - $30 Device Uses the Cold of Outer Space to Generate Renewable Electricity (vice.com) 2
ted_pikul writes: A team of scientists from UCLA and Stanford used some high-school level science and frugal engineering to design a cheap device that uses radiative cooling (when heat escapes into outer space under the night sky) to passively generate renewable electricity. The device generated enough electricity to power an LED on a December night and could scale up to passively power street lights or charge phones, the scientists say.
Submission + - Impossible Burger & Beyond Meat aren't healthier. Meatless marvels are just (nbcnews.com) 2
An anonymous reader writes: The challenge here is that these offerings aren’t actually any healthier. The Impossible Whopper, for instance, not only has comparable caloric and fat levels as its meat-based counterpart, but it has more salt per serving; the Del Taco options are comparable. The Impossible Slider has more calories, more fat and more sodium than the meaty original (before you add cheese to either).
In fact, when you start to compare all of these offerings to their meat-based counterparts, you realize it’s the same story no matter what brands you’re talking about — you might possibly save a few calories or carbs, but you'll probably get way more salt.

Submission + - McDonald's Is To Replace Human Workers With Voice-Based Tech In US Drive-Thrus (bbc.com)
An anonymous reader writes: McDonald's is to replace human servers with voice-based technology in its US drive-throughs. The fast-food chain hopes the AI technology will make the ordering process more efficient. McDonald's is implementing the technology with the help of start-up Apprente, which it acquired this week. The move comes amid concern about workers whose jobs may become obsolete as a result of automation and new technologies. McDonald's plans to expand its newly formed McD Tech team by hiring more engineers and data scientists.

People don't die in science stations in the Antarctic, or in remote desert settlements like Alice Springs in Australia... because the people there no what to expect and have the right supply lines set up.
The people there also know the difference between no and know.

At this point, all I can say is last year's speeds were more than enough. Fuck the dumbasses in the marketing department. Even if you try to buy the latest and greatest it's going to be obsolete by the time it arrives at your house.

On the one hand there's great engineers doing all this amazing work to give us faster connection speeds, and on the other hand there's the dumbasses in the marketing department doing all they can to confuse the fuck out of everyone.
Nice work, dumbasses.
