I've been married 3 times, I have offspring. I am at an age now where I can still be sexually active, but I choose not to because I'm frankly done with marriage and dating. I'm not attractive enough to pick anyone up on any dating sites, and meeting people in person just won't happen. For me, a sex robot would be an interesting diversion. I don't need to "want to have sex with" a woman to be friendly with that woman. I also don't need to go out on dates and do all kind of pointless shit just so I can get my dick wet. I'm at peace with being by myself. If I choose to have sex with a robot, who are you to judge?
eh, that dirties too many dishes. Get the pasta cooked in salted water, drain it, put the pot that you cooked the pasta in on the turned off stove, add a few spoons of sauce from the jar in the fridge. The sauce will warm up from the residual heat of the pan. Add in pasta and stir it around. Your pasta is cooled from the sauce and the sauce is warmed from the pasta. Serve. Works fine with pesto and tomato sauce.
just... put it in the trunk and only put it on the car when you park somewhere. Maybe you just have to use more, smaller panels but I don't see why you couldn't do that.
Agreed. If it were a 'male' named bot, would that elicit the same responses? Why have a gendered name for a bot anyway, when there's tons of names without any sort of gender. If you've picked a 'female' name for a bot because you think it would get better responses, etc - that's something you would probably want to evaluate, but if people are thinking it's a human, then that's a you problem.
I just built one of those today, the Wirsa v2 (its on github) and it's great for getting older devices "online". You can telnet, or playback text files, or download files from sd card all via a DB9 serial - you can use a DB9-DB25 converter if you want. I got it so I can get my TRS-80 Model 100 online, and maybe even an Epson HX-20, but I still need to build a cable for it.
I'd say that's how farmers operate if they're new farmers. They will screw up their first year and start looking for help, asking other farmers for advice, etc - but these companies aren't a part of a community, they don't want to help each other, and when they run out of the investment money the first year, they just give up.
I write programs at work. I don't do a lot of coding at home. I have a "Cybersecurity Esq" type job, which involves coding about 75% of the time, and the other 25% of the time is boring work. When I don't get enough coding time, I usually find myself working on projects at home. If I'm not coding, I work on fixing up some vintage computers, or soldering together small projects (that I can then code later). I don't think "hmm I haven't done enough coding this week" I just do what I want, and generally if I do a lot of coding at work, I'm not so interested in coding at home. If you're spending your coding energy at work and not at home, is that a problem for you? Get a hobby, it doesn't have to be coding. One thing I like to do is practice DJing (I suck at it, but I try), or fix up old game consoles. I think it goes back to why you got into programming in the first place - was it instant gratification, or did you think you could make things work in new ways, infinite possibilities, optimizations, or what? For me, I like the problem solving aspect of it, and it turns out I can get my 'problem solving' fix from repairing broken electronics as well.
There are those of us who are security minded and will in fact download the script and check the sha1/sha256 and review the script before running it. Any time I see this curl sudo thing is when there's always another (manual) option. The shell scripts themselves aren't so complex that you can't figure out what they're doing, they're normally fairly straightforward, unless they were generated by some tool, or are in fact malware, so you can see if something looks funky before you run it. Sure, there can be a malware that makes it so you can't tell, but normally not.
as a developer, I can see a lot of tasks that an LLM would be useful for. In a large organization, new people get onboarded all the time, and generally they have the same exact questions, like 'how do i do a web request out of the proxy?' and 'how can I do multithreading' or 'how do i use library x for our use case y'? whereas an LLM can look at the code used throughout the business and offer suggestions like "hey, I see you're trying to make an https connection to an external site without using a proxy, try this instead". Getting enterprise code up to the enterprise standard, whatever that is, can be very useful. Personally, I'd love to go in depth with an AI on crazy ideas I have for code, and work through a lot of ideas before I implement something. For example, I might want to try different ways to accomplish the same task. I could write my version of it, and instead of rewriting it to try a different way, I might ask an LLM to rewrite it that other way, so I can check which way is better.
Self-reported data, it seems if someone is asking you about any changes in your period, you might just start to notice if its heavy or light, and reporting 'unusually heavy' might just be a side effect of being asked the question.
Context for the article is important here. This article is written for "GIRLS" which is targeting specifically, young women. The tagline for the site is "Girlhood in the Modern World". I think it's valid to talk about it in that context, just as it's valid to talk about it in a BOYS context, or MENS context. It's a discussion piece, which is used to open a discussion on the subject, and does present opinions.
That said, I hope the AI GF/BF will model good relationships, and hopefully people learn from that, so when they desire a physical relationship, they'll know how to handle themselves with a real partner. However, it'll be difficult to do that with the current state of these AI apps that simply agree with everything you say and validate everything.
make them all have different ip addresses, assign them all in the routing table as default route with the metric being different, whichever one has the lowest would be chosen first, if that one is down, it should choose the next one with the second lowest metric. So, you can set 192.168.2.1 as metric 100, .2 as metric 200, .3 as metri 300
Diamonds are not that rare. They're durable, so it's not like an old diamond is going to break or something. So, there should be plenty of diamonds for everyone who wants one. Rings made in the 1920s and up probably have some sort of diamond in it, and if you don't like the ring, keep the gem and craft a new ring around it. I prefer more rare stones, such as a padparadscha sapphire, or Alexandrite. I prefer to give my woman a gemstone as rare as she is, and as colorful as she is, not something which has virtually no color, and is definitely not rare.
no, the article says "groups seek permission from the government to break arbitrary software locks and passwords that keep consumers and repair professionals from diagnosing and repairing equipment they own or are authorized by the owner to work on." It doesn't mention "lockouts", or bypassing safety features. It's about access to the machine, and the diagnostics that a repair person has access to, but the owner does not.
A lot of the time, the reason why it fails is simply because the feed bucket is filled too much to heat it up to a high enough temperature in the 4 hours, but the error codes give no indication of this unless you go into a service menu which the code is not available to the owners of the machines. If you could get into the service menu, you could find out what the problem is, fix it, and have it successfully complete a cycle, if you had access to the settings, you might be able to set it to try for a 5 hour cleaning cycle to give it more time to heat itself up to clean itself. It's not about trying to bypass a safety lockout, it's about being able to troubleshoot the issue and fix it.
Have you read Judea Pearl's paper on Theoretical Bounds on the Complexity of Inexact Computations? It's an old paper from 1976. The abstract is as follows:
Abstract-This paper considers the reduction in algorithmic complexity that can be achieved by permitting approximate answers to computational problems. It is shown that Shannon’s rate-distortion function could, under quite general conditions, provide lower bounds on the mean complexity of inexact computations. As practical examples of this approach, we show that partial sorting of N items, insisting on matching any non zero fraction of the terms with their correct successors, requires 0 (N log N) comparisons. On the other hand, partial sorting in linear time is feasible (and necessary) if one permits any finite fraction of pairs to remain out of order. It is also shown that any error tolerance below 50 percent can neither reduce the state complexity of binary N-sequences from the zero-error value of O(N) nor reduce the combinational complexity of N-variable Boolean functions from the zero-error level of 0(2N/N).
Possible, but you're only moving heat. You're locally cooling, but the net effect of AC is more heat. If a lot of that heat can get out of the atmosphere through radiation, then we'll start to cool the planet. Greenhouse gases make that difficult.
Seems it's less than impossible, and more of 'can happen in some rare circumstances, that we didn't account for'. It's certainly not in "type two" Kardashev scale, but rather an intriguing example of the complexities and surprises that the universe holds. These 'impossible rings' serve as a reminder that our understanding of celestial dynamics is constantly evolving, and that there is still much to discover and learn about the intricacies of our solar system and beyond.
So like if the user input is "I want to ** your **" it would change it to "I want to enjoy your presence"? I'm pretty sure that would leak (be parroted back and not caught by a filter, thus exposing its happening), but it might work. It might put <censored> or something like that instead, which the model would take into consideration and censor itself.
You can't fuel up your car at home in 5 minutes. You have to go to a gas station, unless you're storing 20 gallons of gas at home for some reason. If there is an evacuation, you think you'll be able to get gas at a station? I doubt it. Would you be able to find a plug to plug into, even if it is a regular 15a/20a house plug? yeah, probably. If you're charging at home, like most owners do, you'll generally be topped off at 100% or close to it, so you don't need to go anywhere first, you'll just get in your car and go.
eh, I charge with the "regular plugin charger" - I get about 4 miles an hour, so overnight I get 32 miles. It's enough for my daily driving and then some.
His efficiency data is tarnished by the leak. It was doing its best, but it was leaking, so it probably had to work harder to get the proper temperature. Also, he's comparing year over year - years have differences in weather. He's comparing one year's gas furnace use to 9 years of heat pump use - this is not a great comparison. Also, if he'd have had solar, or some other source of electricity, that was cleaner, say nuclear or solar or wind, it would be a lot less.
I got a KSGER T-12, and it's pretty good. I watched a few videos before buying, and it is able to put out a lot of heat, and it works with a variety of tips. I only wish that it was easier to change the tips.
Oh, there definitely is such a thing as too much flux. I have some active flux that works really well on old and oxidized boards, but it's a pain to clean. I try to use only the amount necessary to do the job. No-clean flux still needs to be cleaned, but it's a lot easier to clean up, and with that I will say that I agree with your statement, conditionally. Having a swimming pool of flux or more flux than solder is not good.
Scopolamine, derived from Hyoscymus Albus is used today for the exact same reasons. The plant is called henbanes, and that name historically refers to a few different plants, but all seem to be exhibiting similar effects.
