No amount of encryption is going to stop a mole who social engineers their way into a secure chat.

Minnesota passed a law banning nudification using AI. Its not nothing, so we’ll see how it pans out.

Is this the same lexisnexis that does like book and research paper databases for university libraries?

Its been hitting me. Can’t use old.reddit without logging in and new reddit is an abomination.

Huh, today I learned. Appreciated!

I mean, we do know at this point that /pol/ and Q on 4chan wre an actual psyop by Bannon and Epstein to spread half nonsense conspiracy theories. So much of the bs spread through Q had just enough “if you squint hard enough they’re just telling you what they are doing” to make all the conspiracy theory shit work as well as it did. Like how there are so many references in the ao far released files to “pizza parties” as their codewords for raping children coincides in theming with Q directing psychos toward the basement of a random 1 story pizza parlor as the epicenter of a Clinton sex trafficking ring.

I also do believe in some extent to the “every conspiracy theory is a psyop to distract from the real conspiracy.” Sort of like dead internet theory, there’s still live human beings online, just that there are also a ton of bots out there and its difficult to tell the difference between the bots and the genuine people.

Snapchat maybe? I have no clue.

The illuminati conspiracy theorists were looking for a complicated narrative with magical bullshit to justify their hatred of Jewish people. The rest of us can plainly see that its just ridiculously easy for the billionaire class to pay off politicians for favorable legislation without the need for shadow puppets, MKUltra brainwashing and Jewish blood libel to explain everything.

My guess is they’re not a 50/50 binary. Like how in sports betting one team is favored over another to win, maybe its a 45/55 split. So if any given military action has a 5% chance of happening and a 95% chance of non happening, the overall aggregate of bets on this kind of thing should pretty closely mirror that 95/5 split.

Sometimes the theatrics of shutting down a nazi site is just as important as the actual shutting down of a nazi site.

Blender has an add on project called cad sketches in development. It’s free to use and is donation supported just like Blender is. I haven’t used it myself but it wouldn’t hurt looking into it.

No I’m saying you told your family to stop turning off the dehumidifier and they haven’t stopped doing that. No amount of home automation or smart devices is going to change your family turning the dehumidifier off. You don’t have a dumb system problem, you have a dumb people problem. And unfortunately a dumb people problem doesn’t get solved by a smarter system.

Dehumidifiers are already automatic. Black mold isn’t going to take over your bathroom in 10 minutes.

It sounds to me like your problem is human error, not the lack of a smarter machine. You can’t engineer your way around people being morons. The greatest engineering minds have figured that out years ago.

But dehumidification doesn’t need to be proactive, it’s entire point is to kick on when there’s too much humidity and turn off once it gets to where it’s set to. This is the kind of building a solution to a problem that doesn’t actually exist.

And you’re vastly underestimating how quickly diffusion works, especiallu for water vapor in air. When I take my shower in the morning the air very quickly saturates with humidity. I don’t have a very dry half of the room and a very humid half of the room. The entire room is humid. It doesn’t take 10 minutes for the humidity to diffuse into the dehumidifier. And then I leave the bathroom door open after which the humidity very quickly dissipates and equalizes the relatively high humidity of the very small bathroom into the comfortable humidity of the very large everywhere else that the small amount of humidity will have a negligible impact on.

I’m failing to see how putting more unnecessary stuff between the hygrometer and the cooling loop of a dehumidifier makes it better.

And how does a well designed automation system measure how much moisture in the air? There must be some kind of measuring device that measures moisture, a moisture scope! Ooh wait let’s latinize it to make it sound more impressive and sophisticated a hygro…me…ter… oh… uh… this is embarrassing.

Dehumidifiers already do that. They’re equipped with hygrometers that kick the machine on or off depending on the relative humidity. It’s old tech and it’s pretty reliable, wifi isn’t really necessary for it.

And it’s not even a good search engine either. It just spits out sarcastic jokes from barely up voted reddit posts.

So a lightyear is an acceptable non-cancelation of units [(m/s)*year] but kilowatt hours [(j/s)*s] isnt. Got it.

It definitely does provide information as my 50 watt lightbulb will run for an absurd number of years when hooked up to a nuclear generator and will be completely vaporized by the nuclear bomb.

Also keep in mind your average person likely doesn’t remember their physics classes and how joules, time, and watts all relate to each other and that introducing new names to something just creates more confusion and headache and dumbasses phoning into their electric companies about how “my lightbulbs don’t take joules they take watts and why am I paying for joules when I want watts.”

kWh conveys the relevant information without introducing other names that can create confusion among the stupidest and most karen-like people you know.

The important thing is that leaving units uncanceled is a valid way to communicate the relevant factors of what a number represents.

Yes technically kWh cancels down to joules, but that doesn’t communicate the relevant info of how a device uses that energy during a period of time. In other words Work (Watts) multiplied by Time (hours).

Uranium has 2x10¹³ joules of energy stored. You can use all that energy at once in a bomb and explode a city in a second, a lot of Work done very quickly, ooooor you could put it into a reactor and power a city and do a lot of Work during a much longer time period.
