In 20 years: +2°C is unavoidable, +3°C would require the whole world to reduce the emissions by as much as the covid crisis did… Each year.

Even if the best political minds come to term with that and take actions, I don’t see us stopping. I don’t see us capping at 3, nor at 4. Nor at 6.

Swamp cooler, they do work, but raise the humidity, which might cause increased mold growth

I usually put on some PBS Space Time, not quite podcast, but I often don’t look at the visuals when trying to sleep. The videos are short (about 15min) , but provided it’s between 23:30 and 00:30, it usually takes only about 5 minutes before I fall asleep.

Used to do audiobooks, but that would fail if I was too invested in the book…

No, I wanted to explain why I don’t believe in their existance, but I couldn’t write something without comming off as an asshole, so sorry.

Yeah, the direction commercial AI took is truely disheartening… Like, AI is a useful tool, but it’s been buisnesized where everyone puts AI is places where it shouldn’t be. Mostly because people don’t understand what they are doing so surely an AI model will…

The other day a dude wanted to dev an app with me about some random shit with an AI, except it could all be done with standard algorithms, and would probably perform much better too.

I looked at him and almost facepalmed on the spot…

Yes, but the important part is understanding the flaws of what you are standing up for.

My headphones might be louder then, probably, well that thing is almost ingrained now (I frequently pass by an area with a center for blind people, so there are quoite a few around, not every day, but maybe every 2 or 3) so I’ll probably continue doing it

my thoughts too, although maybe it actually adds additional noise that can make it harder to know what’s going on…

Oh, true, gonna make that RN, we need moar content

more seriously, I do tend to drag my feet a little on the ground when I pass by a blind person, as I often have an headset and don’t know if I am actually making noise while walking.

I don’t know if this actually helps, but I hope it does

Yeah well… That’s only if they had followed GDPR

Well, you could stay private and continue to moderate as if it would always be a private sub, just have a few authorized users and a few posts a day to moderate…

Very nice prose btw, enjoyed reading

And yeah this sucks, my coffee maker has a 60 second boot sequence… Now I once suspeced it was heating up, but I don’t think that’s actually the case (found one that heated up in less than 10 seconds), more like someone decided to put an OS to manage the 8 touch buttons, pump, grinder and heater… Now appart from the boot sequence, it’s nice…

But microwaves… What does fish mean?

“Bringing out the best of bing to the chatGPT experience”…

LMAO

Ah, they restrict this in the extension store? That’s… shady

Definitly! Not entierly sure if that’ll happen tho… maybe not soon at least

Yeah! there are great one on there too, quite a few very popular ones: The main ones I can think off the top of my head are

• Beware of chicken; takes itself less seriously, and is quite a fun slice-of-life cultivation thingy
• Forge of Destiny; more serious and closer to classical cultivation novels, slow-burn but honestly quite magical, I dropped it because I have a really hard time with Asian names and had trouble to difference characters, but honestly, very well written
• Path of Ascension; A different take on cultivation, outside of the Asian origin but keeps some of the mechanics while applying more modern ideas, on a grand scale, honestly love that one

There are plenty of others and people more qualified than me on cultivation novels could guide you better (I am quite impaired by my inability to parse Asian names unfortunately…)

Reading… I found this site that has quite a few novels of which authors post chapters weekly, bi-weekly or more…

Most of it is fiction/fantasy, quite a bit of it is litrpg

I can sink hours on this… Public transports, coffee break, lunch break, evening beer… I just can’t stop myself

Ahh this is nice, we are having an impact

A tad more complicated as car software does need to be much less prone to security vulnerabilities than a random software (as it has the responsibility to handle human life)

But yeah… what about their existing telemetry? same thing could be argued.
