Definitely being unreasonable, but that's one of the reasons I don't have an electric vehicle yet. I'm paranoid of that thing catching fire in my garage. Which is ironic since one of my random electronic devices with li-batte

Can you use an LLM to teach you how to build a gun or use it to design a gun for you build? Can an LLM be used to generate images of young people for older perverts? If yes, then it's not very hard to make the argument that you need to

Doom pioneered the FPS genre in the USA. So it has a cultural significance. I used to go to my friends house to play it. You deal with a whole range of aspects such as grapchics, sound, networking,.. Etc. So it's a fun challange for ha

My dad retired from truck driving right before the covid lockdowns (2020). The regulations were a massive painpoint. During the Obama's last term they passed in strict time tracking regulations and forced everyone to have GPS trackers

I like to use https://ground.news/ . At least it attempts to show you what the biases are based on political leanings.

It's actually not liquid (at least that's the theory). It's more like butter. The magma that you see at the surface is due to the rocks melting since there is a decreases in pressure and there are other minerals in the rock i

It probably depends where you live and your social groups. In MT it seems that there are two main groups of people. Those who are into outdoor activities (healthier lifestyle) and your other group which is more adverse to the outdoors and p

Thanks, I should of read it more thoroughly. Skimmed it instead, did a second pass and noticed a paragraph regarding vehicle charge longevity and the lack of charging stations.

I'm surprised, I thought the electric engines would supply more torque. Thereby making it easier to plow snow.

If 230 didn't exist we would have had a different medium for a public commons. These companies have become the commons and are now acting as a publisher in order to influence public debate in a direction they deem fit. Perhaps a soluti
