Wait until they realize that they can tie this AI into facial recognition at those big screen kiosks and they change the prices based on the appearance of the person ordering.

So far it's proven to be effective at scattering pieces of stainless steel over the ocean.

Emailed.

Nope. Deprecated just a couple of weeks ago.

I happily pay $20/year so I don't need to worry about it. Not everyone can or wants to run their own infra.

Makes me wonder if NHTSA tests not only the performance of a vehicle in terms of protecting its occupants, but also the performance of the vehicle in terms of what it does to any other vehicles it might come into contact with.

I assume they do some testing for vehicle vs. pedestrian or vehicle vs. cyclist, but would they run a Cybertruck into a Toyota Camry to see how the outcome compares for both vehicles compared to running an F-150 into the same Camry?

Is this why blood has a metallic taste? It's literally metallic?

Same. I'd donated here and there in the past, but I easily get $7CAD/month of usage and would be sad if it didn't exist.

Our grocery store literally sells live, potted basil plants for less than a little package of fresh basil. And people still by the packaged basil.

Same. An Aerogarden makes it very easy to grow the stuff all year round. In the summer, I transplant some into the garden as well. It's a weed and before too long I generally have way too much.

This is a logical approach when many of the launches are delivering your own payloads to orbit. Best case, no issues and you get more data and more launches out of a booster. Worst case, you loose a few dozen Starlinks and you learn a lot about how your vehicle will eventually fail and maybe learn where to design in improvements to avoid that specific failure case.

That said, I'm sure they are still well within the safety margins, but pushing a bit (with little risk) to be able to see if your margins are correctly placed is just smart.

BC Place stadium in Vancouver, BC implemented a rainwater harvesting system on the 11 acre roof that collects and stores rainwater for use in cleaning, toilets, field irrigation and other non-potable uses. They estimate it saves 950,000L of drinking water per year. https://www.bcplace.com/blog/2021-04-22/how-bc-place-is-buil...

Trying it now...it will only let you import 100 photos at a time, and you need to single select each one (My Instagram has hundreds and hundreds of photos going back a decade).

So far nothing has actually imported. Not sure how long I should wait.

Edge would be my everyday browser if they would just stop with all this crap they keep adding that both causes bloat and also diminishes user privacy.

It's already back in India. Flew out on June 10.

You know what? Screw Reddit. Let them kill the apps. It's the push we all need to realize that open platforms are what is needed.

Everyone is copying Arc. Microsoft showed a similar design to what Arc has along with vertical tabs.

Arc user for a few months now (after a failed first attempt to switch late last year). The article is a pretty solid rundown of what makes it different. You do need to approach it with a willingness to change how you interact with your browser, specifically how you organize and use bookmarks and tabs.

If you try to fight against the way they suggest you use Arc, then you might as well stick with what you are using. If you are willing to try some of the new ideas for a few weeks, you might find that they make a lot of sense for you and Arc will quickly become very familiar and switching back to Chrome, Brave, Firefox, or Safari will be frustrating. Or maybe the way you work with the browser is not compatible with how Arc works and you'll abandon it after a few weeks and wonder what all the fuss is about.

That's basically what these cars do in SF, apparently. They get themselves into a situation with no way to figure out a way forward and they shut down.

Better than the emoji you get back if you email press@twitter.com.

It's mentioned in the FAQ on the AT Protocol website: https://atproto.com/guides/faq#why-not-use-activitypub

A custom domain probably would have saved them from DQ. The github.io domain really threw up a red flag regardless of whether they used Github Pages or not.

No need to worry about the return trip if it's unlikely that anyone would survive the trip there, right?

Crazy that an airline that is very used to the need for double- and triple-redundancy in the aircraft it flies fails to have any sort of connectivity backup for it's ground systems.

Bats are bad news and generally it's a very good idea to completely avoid contact with them and also with bat feces. Don't touch bats. Ever.

"Staying warm" being the key! Your body generates plenty of heat. The idea is to trap it.

I'm interested in a lot of different forms of transportation as a hobby. Photography, tracking, etc. Being able to see the flight history of a specific airframe is interesting to me or going back and looking at past flights. Fleets is another feature I use. For example, I've been interested in trying to get photos of the new E915-E2 jets that Porter Airlines is adding so I've created a "fleet" and can easily track the whereabouts in the hopes of being able to catch one in flight to photograph.

From FR24, you get two years of historical data for starters.

Same. I get value back from FR24 in the form of a Business subscription which gives me a TON of data and access I wouldn't be able to afford. I fed ADS-B Exchange for nothing because it seemed like a nice thing to do to benefit the wider tracking community. To have the founder cash out and sell OUR data without even talking to the community first? That really rubbed me the wrong way. I stopped feeding about an hour ago.

It's going from $9.99 to $14.99/month in Canada. I'm out. Even at $10 I was considering whether it was worth it. At $15 it's not even close. I turned off auto-renew this morning when I saw the DC Rainmaker video.
