The drone idea is pretty smart, could just have it trying really hard to locate any objects near it, and happen to fly it past every camera in your area

Chinese cars built with LiDAR are supposedly damaging cameras on road networks, and those lasers are extremely low powered compared to, say, a laser pointer.

I’m so used to everything we do being another stride into a dystopian hellscape that it took me a moment to realise that this wasn’t (in any immediately obvious way) the government helping the fuel industry. This treaty is absolute nonsense, and should never have been ratified in the first place, so this is actually good news, unless they’ve somehow thought of something worse to replace it with

Joplin looks pretty damn good, my question is about the diagram function - basically, I take on more than I can manage, and have made my life a bit of a tangled hellscape. I’m looking to visually organise the physical projects I have started, and see which parts are holding up other projects. Essentially, columns of blocks for steps to complete one thing, each block being its own note, and visually showing if there are steps in other columns on which this block depends, or depends on this. Can it do that?

The way you describe these programs, and their websites suggest that they’re actually going to be way more useful than just my intended use case, I’ve never really considered replacing my basic notes with something like this. I used Evernote for a while, but they made more and more features paid, and it got much less useful in comparison to the iOS notes app, so I’ve just stuck with that for ages. What you say about a mature app with continued support really matters. Photobucket are working their absolute hardest to prove that point at the moment.

Angle grinder and an axe, that man has balls of steel. Fair play to him!

“Gonna manifest me some pork in the shower for my wife”

Well I never knew that! Nice explanation, thanks

Not a book, but one of the Daniels has said that Everything, Everywhere, All At Once is based on his experience of having all 80 of the HDs.

Also, having written that like that reminded me that there’s a character in the Dogman kids graphic novel called 80hd

I really got that impression reading it, you’re right on the money

My life might generally be a train wreck, but god damn am I good at emergencies, especially the “we’ve turned a truck over in a silly place” “The digger’s half sink in the lake” kind. The wheels constantly come off things like keeping my house from being a war zone, but when the actual wheels come off, I’m actually fitting on all cylinders for once. It’s a kind of crap trade off, but I’m not sure how much I’d want to change it!

One of my friends once called me pedantic, and I got to correct his pronunciation of it - he stressed the first syllable. One of the high points of my life.

Why did Italy ban lab-grown meat from Arizona in the first place?

Clearly not an Australian, I’ve heard that said on the radio in the afternoon

Can’t be diluting’ them pure genes if you only fuck family members

Behold, the master race! In all their glorious, unmisogynated genetic purity

Came here to say pretty much exactly that! Great minds etc

Andrew Huberman is a neurologist who covers this in depth, with citations and references, if you’re actually interested. It’s pretty well established

This is happening in the Memmy app too

Wait, are we supposed to think of influencers as humans?
