There’s nothing stopping anybody

I assume you can do it by hand, right now, in a few seconds then?

Just use it all the time including turn only lanes. Deal with the clicking, it’s fine.

Dope. Looks like I’ll have to give Linux a shot once again. Worked fine on an old ultra book I had, but every time I tried on my desktop I’d fail at the GPU drivers step.

What’s installing Nvidia drivers like?

This has killed my install and interest in Linux every time I’ve tried it.

With enough energy you certainly could, even if that meant breaking everything down to their constituent parts chemically and doing stuff like reconstructing proteins from amino acids. This isn’t reversing entropy but you could get back to the original ingredients, with some Ship of Theseus stuff happening with the matter involved.

That’s a great question.

At first I thought it’d be a wash. The heat absorbed by vaporizing the water in the swamp cooler will be released onto the evaporator coils of the AC, so that’s a net zero energy transfer.

However, air is not good at conducting heat. This water evaporation/condensation cycle might transfer heat from the air to the evaporator coils of the AC better.

You are going to have additional water and electricity costs from running the swamp cooler though, so I really don’t know. I suppose you could run the condensation from the AC back to the swamp cooler to greatly reduce water usage.

We live in an unjust world and it’s not likely he’ll face consequences in line with his actions.

They’re both about price in my opinion.

Personally I don’t feel the console itself is that bad, but $80 Nintendo games, that never go on sale, can fuck right off.

Big Xbox One release vibes.

There’s no point as a swamp cooler does not have heat to reject. A heat pump in a traditional AC works by making one side hot (outside) and one side cool (inside). A swamp cooler decreases temps by evaporating water, which absorbs energy.

Also, swamp coolers are only effective in very dry environments. Unless you’re in the desert it’s going to make it feel warmer by raising humidity significantly. A large part of why AC makes it feel nicer is reducing humidity, which allows sweat to work better.

The quantity of radioactive material and what form of radiation it emits is extremely relevant to this discussion.

We have seen nuclear batteries - it’s decades old technology at this point. They were used in pacemakers. They stopped in the 80s because it’s too expensive and dangerous. You have to track radiation sources like this.

In smoke detectors and tritium watches the quantity of radioactive material is minuscule compared to the beta emitter in the battery, as in multiple orders of magnitude less. None of the things you mentioned have radioactive material in any significant quantity. If you swallowed or inhaled this battery you’d be exposed to significant amounts of radiation.

A microwave is not an ionizing radiation source.

Can’t imagine why we don’t put nuclear material in consumer products, seems practical.

Yeah, might be switching to Jellyfin eventually, but I want to milk my lifetime plex pass for a bit longer. The enshittification hasn’t reached terminal levels for me yet. I’d have to talk all my non-nerd friends through setting Jellyfin up as well, so there’s a significant effort barrier to switching there.

Plexamp is fantastic. Sweetfades and radio/mix features, which can also include songs from shared libraries, are dope as hell. One of my favorite audio players of all time. Bridges the gap between old school local library playback and modern algorithm stuff really well.

If you really want to see this type of content you can easily find it with the tiniest amount of motivation.

Nowhere in the article does it say anything like that. It’s pretty straight forward reporting - the guy ran some websites and distributed pirated books and software, and hacked a few websites. No judgements are passed, it’s just factual information.
