IMO the laundry thing is an easy example of the larger issue of extreme privilege. Being able to live on a rich friend’s property in the woods by a pond sounds awesome. I’m sure I would love that and it would do amazing things for my well-being. But that’s just not a relatable thing for most people and it can really sour the message.
Melting without breaking. It’s cheese and emulsifier mixed together so the oils don’t separate out. People often use egg for the same reason when making cheese sauces.
Except, ideally, a PhD thesis. Which should contain a completely new piece of information for the world.
I couldn’t believe no one wanted to hear about increasingly obscure generative AI news so I made a whole project to prove it.
2024.1.6 was released on Tuesday. That’s what the stable image tag appears to be on at the moment.
Doesn’t look like anything exceptional, just some bug fixes: https://github.com/home-assistant/core/releases/tag/2024.1.6
I grew up in Central New York in the 90s. You’d know pretty fast if all the rain was acid rain. It was wreaking havoc on car paint.
Open source is about ideas being freely shared and iterated on. Open hardware has benefits, making a lot of things more accessible to people. It’s not the end all of sustainability, but it doesn’t pretend to be either.
Tencent has a minority stake in Larian. That’s very different from being wholly owned and managed by them.
Moving to an even larger company that has less experience with physical “fun” products isn’t likely to be good for the core game. D&D is already at odds with the hardcore community despite the success of the movie and BG3.They don’t need more licensed content, they need to rethink their creative process and how they interact with the core tabletop community. I just don’t see how Tencent is the place for that.
Asphalt is pretty amazing given the amount of wear it goes through. It’s basically infinitely recyclable, very flexible, goes down fast, and is relatively easy to work with.
Highly recommend meowwolf. I did the Vegas one on a work trip and it was a blast.
Discord movie night with some friends. Double feature of First Wives Club and My Big Fat Greek Wedding.
People getting together for the common good is just a government, the exact thing libertarians hate.

Basically their unit (or ship) gets assigned a special military PO box and the military takes care of it from there. USPS says you just pay like a domestic letter or package. It’s almost certainly subsidized by the military. I assume the other package carriers are similar.
I don’t believe it’s possible for a CA to decrypt TLS traffic with their private keys. They sign a site’s public key with their own private key after verification but are never given the private key itself. Public CAs only provide identity verification, they do not take part in the encryption process itself. Let’s Encrypt is perfectly safe in that regard.
I see season 1-9 packs on both IPT and TL.
Observation is all we have. There’s no indication that anything outside the solar system is different from the things inside of it. Some stars have a light spectrum very similar to our sun, which implies they are stars in similar places in their life. Others have a light spectrum that is very different.
We can use different parallax angles to determine that some stars are much further away than others. Parallax works the same at 10 miles as it does at 10 light years.
Is there some particular observation you don’t understand?
To be fair that’s a pretty recent development. Jellyfin apps for smart tvs are only just becoming stable enough for real use. Plex was the only option for a long time.
I believe this is suggesting an AI poisoning edit, not removing the image entirely. It should be mostly imperceptible. Plus, you could update with newer methods as they come out.
I actually think your hypothetical smoker is a great example of the opposite. Someone who lived it, understands the struggle, and ultimately regrets their choices is exactly who you want to hear from. It’s why the really cheesy don’t smoke PSAs don’t ring a chord with most people, they don’t feel genuine.
I don’t think Thoreau is some enormous hypocrite, but I do absolutely understand why some people might feel bitter about it when they learn the greater context.
