Sometimes I have to write someone in, but it still counts as a vote!
Sometimes I have to write someone in, but it still counts as a vote!
You guys were voting based on “lesser of two evils” and not based on who you actually like?
I’ve always just voted for the guy I like best. I never felt that voting tactically was truthful.
If everyone was like me we’d have a nicer political climate, I think.
I’ll keep doing that so you can feel free to join me in doing that until we reach the critical mass point.
Just softening them up for 2027
Everyone does it eventually
Only superpower left who hasn’t tried to invade them at some point in time.
Oh and I forgot, a big one, I engage the cats if they show interest in my task.
When cooking they can smell safe things, if I’m working on tech i have a very large screw and bolt for them to play with/try out instead of my small ones.
Cats are social and want to be included, if you give them the option to do “parallel play” I think it will improve what people see as problem behaviors that are really just begging to be included.
Fetch: grab the toy if they play with it and it ends up close by, use verbal reinforcement
Names: the cats recognize everyone’s name in the hous thanks to reinforcement learning
Locations: the cats know where I’m going and can beat me there because I tell them where I’m going, sounds like reinforcement learning again?
Activities: set phrases like “let’s go”, “come on”, “let’s get some food”, “jump up”, etc, all by reinforcement training.
Paw-touching: slowly touch more and more often, for longer, until nail clipping is a breeze. Hmm… Might be reinforcement training again.
To end bad behaviors, hiss, it’s a built-in “no” for cats.
It sucks and I canceled it and subscribed to it through YouTube which means paramount gets 30% less money.
I am floored no one mentioned the original Ratchet and Clank

David Bergeaud did such a standout job with it, it’s so varied but cohesive, it’s engaging and synthy but real and groovy.
It MAKES the environment just as much as graphics.
Yes thankfully we have 911 by text in much of the USA now
In the 10th and 5th circuit it is iirc.
It’s still on the forms and the ATF can probably arrest you for it, but as of last month you would have 2 federal circuits of precedent.
US gun owner here:
It 100% warrants a call to the police.
Sounds like assault with a deadly weapon, and if he took it out to show, then it’s brandishing. It doesn’t matter if it was non-firming because the target didn’t know that, and typically these laws are written to be what “a reasonable person would believe”.
Also, at the time this happened he was a known user of Marijuana and thus not eligible to own a firearm, as that rule had not yet been struck down.
If you get the grounding box you can have an antistatic collar for the dog and a strap for the human. Plug both in and you’re both at the same potential.
Alternatively the human can touch the banana plug side of the strap, as the in-built resistor will “slowly” equalize the charges between you. I say slowly because in human terms as soon as you touch its already done.
The ugg boots may be electrically isolating as well, so a heel-strap is typically worn in ESD environments to overcome insulated soles. In combination with a grounding floor mat, this works without having to think too much about it.
Additionally, you can get a humidifier and maintain a relative humidity above 40%. Thankfully you don’t need insulation to do this!

Yep, door already has a hole in it, get a cheap kwikset at the big box and slap that in there
Who could have guessed that may-issue permits could be (gasp) abused!
I thought the police would be even and fair in their determination of who should get one, just like they are in all their other activities.
I am an engineer that has worked in the space industry my entire career, and here are my thoughts:
GOES and METEOR weather satellites transmit images publicly that are NOT real time, but are downlinked, processed, and uplinked for public broadcast. This is pretty simple and saves a lot of processing power on the spacecraft side. That’s important because the biggest constraints on spacecraft processing are: power budget, radiation hardiness, and thermal.
I was able to find an image of the actual satellite in assembly. From this we can guess that there is probably not more than a square meter of solar on-board, so we can give it a round 1300W of power. I couldn’t find any orbital parameters(If Gunter doesn’t have it, who does?), but given it’s main task is as an imager, we can assume LEO, and so this 1300W isn’t going to be constant since the spacecraft will most likely be eclipsed part of the time.
Generous 1000W average solar flux, generous 25% panel efficiency, 250W/h.
So lets look at rad hard processors. They have to be either shielded or run multiple and do voting, though even that isn’t fully acceptable as some SEU (single event upset) can cause permanent damage and leave you down a voting member. The latest and greatest RAD5545 advertises 5.6 giga-operations per second (GOPS) at 20 watts, so if we assume (artlessly, and likely incorrectly) a linear power usage, the 80 TOPS of the WJ-1A should need some 280kW. So we know they aren’t using a typical rad-hard CPU topology for their AI models. I see that Corel/Google advertise 2 TOPS per watt on their edge TPUs (Tensor Processing Unit).
So assume a large ASIC (application specific integrated circuit) at the same efficiency of 2TOPS/W, with 4x multiples for voting and we get a far more reasonable 160W. Still a LOT of power on orbit for such a small spacecraft, but actually possible.
So for thermal limits, do they run the TPU only on the dark side in place of their on-board heater? The have some white panels that might be radiators, but it’s hard to say.
Hard to say from these fluff articles. I really want to hear:
I expect to see more ML in space, but to be honest I did not expect it to be in such a small form factor.
I do like the steam in bag option, but otherwise find rice cooker to be my normal steamer.
Try ovening some leftovers and you’ll feel like iron chef.
The worst part is how confusing it was for older people, who were worried the whole app was going to not work.
Signal was upset that “oh well some people can’t figure out what’s SMS and what’s encrypted”, but that was kind of… good? You could give parents, grandparents, etc an SMS app that was easy as the old one, and secure with the right people.
Don’t get me started on the chat color fiasco. No signal, I SHOULD NOT CHANGE COLOR. I assign colors to people to distinguish them, I don’t change who I am based on who I talk to.
Since you’re talking specifically about the presidential election, I actually am helping my candidate, since if I and others can get 1% of the popular vote for someone, then they can get easier access to ballots, debates, and federal funding next time.
