Weren't they re-classified as telecoms so that the FCC would be able to regulate them at all?

Looks like their wiki says there is roughly 14 petabytes of data to be backed up, and only ~105 terabytes have redundant backups now?

Bravo. Now you need to factor in toilet facilities, and presumably potable water access so everyone can piss enough to cool the building hahahaha...

Good luck getting enough AC units in that structure to keep everyone from dying of heat stroke within a few minutes.

I wouldn't be too sure about that. There are some jurisdictions where if someone squats the land long enough, and the owner of the land does nothing, the squatters gain de jure property rights too. [0] 3 years in this instance were t

What doesn't feel wild about it? 29,000 acres seem like a big enough place to get lost in and feel wild. For example, I've camped in the Presidential-Dry River Wilderness (also 29,000 acres) in the WMNF, and I have to say, even ca

It doesn't seem like that device really adds any more security (it appears to be advertised as being one of the main benefits), as anyone can still pick the deadbolt lock from the outside using a bump key or something. Convenience sure

I found this neat crime vs population density study, but as with most things, you answer one question and end up with more: https://blog.nycdatascience.com/student-works/pressure-cooke...

The Oregon Badlands Wilderness you have pointed out seems very much wild to me. As a counterpoint, much of the WMNF in NH/ME was formerly logged, and there are remnant logging tracks (as opposed to jeep roads) scattered throughout, inc

Please correct me if I am wrong, but I thought the Sierra Club only opposed mtn biking in designated Wilderness Areas, which only make up 36M out of 192M NFS acerage.[0] (That's 145,000 km^2 out of 780,000 km^2) Those areas really shou

I took his comment to be sarcastic, but I could be wrong.

I will elaborate further: inspect usage trends of Alexa to determine anomalies, i.e. times of no usage in the day when the owner isn't home.

by 24gttghh 9y ago
That's an optimistic assumption :)

by 24gttghh 9y ago
The fact they don't even auto-lock is just one of many things wrong with this idea; is what I was trying to say I suppose :)

One could still infer from a lack of 'Alexa' hotword prompts over a span of time whether the home was occupied I reckon.

by 24gttghh 9y ago
I'm not sure if you're disagreeing with me, but I agree that this is a terrible idea from amazon.
592.
by 24gttghh 9y ago
Well, they could conceivably watch as you enter/exit your home, but if you have Alexa already then I would think they could infer from silence or lack-thereof whether the home is occupied.

I would rethink your post-apocalyptic single-crop garden if I were you. Diversify, diversify, diversify.

Right, and this specific type of clover is slow growing also.

It also has a lower energy density than gasoline and problems with gumming up fuel injectors, and collecting water in fuel tanks which leads to corrosion. edit: ethanol is hygroscopic; meaning it attracts and collects water

Well, I only have experience with about an 18m^2 garden, so I'll copy an excerpt from my MOFGA link: > Dutch white [clover] forms a low, dense understory that controls weeds, fixes nitrogen in the soil and remains as a cover crop af

If they can engineer it to have a higher gluten content I'd be interested! Until then it is no wheat-replacement by any stretch from my perspective as a baker. Another grain to add to the arsenal for sure, but in terms of baking it&#x2

No the point GP is making is that atheism is a religion (it's not), which is in itself wordplay. To try to stay on the subject of the article, I find it interesting that it's Protestants who are abandoning their faith which is mos
