What I found interesting is the sun is actually white in this camera feed instead of the usual yellow we associated with it.

This is already a thing but it's more for people with money right now. There are a lot of 'reputation management services' whose job is to flood out bad press and replace it with anything else.

I'm out of the loop on this. What has been happening? Do you get IP blocked? Rate limited?

The idea behind the gas stove ban, is that it's supposed to be a gas appliance ban. Most of a house's gas consumption is heating and hot water, but people will keep gas because of the stove. Gas itself has a lot of problems. Ignor

I remember I bought a box of floppies in the early 2000s. From that box, I don't think I got a single disk that had zero bad sectors. At that point, I moved to thumb drives, CD-R's, or email for my data transfer needs.

I have joked that I could train an above average dog to pass the California driving test.

That would have to be an absolutely crushing tax to make that work. It would also make a really cliff where there are no rental properties between X & Y because the tax pushes up prices so much.

Gaming was late to IP networks too. I remember so many games would only support IPX networking even after the internet had taken off. Kali was a very popular IPX emulator for IP networks for years.

We'd have to do private bi-directional NAT44. NAT is expensive to run and is one of those things that always breaks. It could work but it basically just makes permanent tech debt that will frustrate maintenance forever. It also only re

I've actually got a really great example where IPv6 is a huge win. Connecting networks. My company has bought other companies in the past and inevitably we've had IP space conflicts. Work arounds involved requiring users to connec

Another person who does not understand IPv4. IPv4 isn't a text based protocol where IP addresses are parsed like DNS. It's a binary protocol where addresses are recorded in binary and adding more address space WOULD BE A BREAKING

This comes up every time IPv6 is discussed. Any change to IPv4 to extend the IP space (eg your example) would require a breaking change to the specification. So this would require changing every router on the planet to support it. You&#x2

Liquefies. It's almost impossible to use at that temp though because you burn propane gas.

One of the nice things about podman is that it's super easy to configure image caches. So instead of rewriting all my image references to use my local cache tool, I can just set a cache directive in podman and everything works transpar

I once heard a lawyer explain that tipping is legally problematic. Service quality affects tip amount very little (~1%), but what does affect it is race, age, and gender. The result is that people doing the same job are being paid meaningfu

The argument is there is a (narrow) use-case for them. For example, let's say I'm Bob the baker and I own Bob's Bakery. I sell my bakery to Steve. If I were to then open "Bob's New Bakery" across the street I w

They would also do maintenance. Cars used to require an absolutely huge amount of regular maintenance and having someone local to do it was a net win.

One thing I'd like to see is offloading object detection to the camera. Many cameras now include event detection and I'd like to use the on-board dedicated hardware in each camera rather than trying to do it on a local GPU for eac
