CMFU is the college station for my alma-mater, McMaster University in Hamilton, ON. I'm sure they'd love to be featured, it's the third oldest community station in Canada.

I love listening to these stations, you always get such a great variety of music you probably wouldn't hear much of otherwise. It seems no amount of Spotify AI will rival the taste-making discoverability power of a college hipster behind a DJ set :)
You can play Wolfenstein 3D in one of the recent Wolfenstein games. IIRC it's presented as an arcade machine, but it seemed like the whole game was there (I played quite a bit of it, but didn't finish before bailing back out to the "real" game).

Tried to find a TVTropes for this kind of thing, but couldn't. Surprised, seems like there'd be one.

my family owns a large solar farm. you're the one being absurd here.

paying for all of the work to build a plywood solar farm, and then _never_ _getting_ _anything_ _back_ would've been profoundly negative.

you're thinking about the first day after the install. _sure_ it _might_ cost less to install a bunch of plywood. and then you never get anything for it. and nobody will give you a business loan for "i want to install fake solar panels", but "i want to install actual solar panels" has all sorts of cheap money thrown at it.

over the life of the system installing actual panels has a shot at paying for itself.
marcus brownlee did a great review of their car (not this one specifically). I recommend everyone take the time to watch it if they're interested. He's a big tesla fanboy but definitely gives lucid a LOT of credit on things they do better than tesla. Came off as very balanced and fair

It's been a while since I read the book on this. I'm not sure if it got into the exact equipment or not. Certainly if SAR had an accurate fix from the beginning there would have been at least some hope for a rescue.

The book was interesting mostly for all the SAR detail. The accident, sadly, was mostly in the category of--however fit and well-equipped you are--don't try to beat a very bad incoming storm on an exposed ridge line in the middle of winter. If she had turned around at Madison Hut or wherever she'd have been fine.

Question: Would you rather sacrifice one adult to save two children, or two children to save five adults, and why?

Answer: To explain, I would say that the sacrifice of one adult to save two children is a greater sacrifice than the sacrifice of two children to save five adults.
Did ~255kph once over 20 years ago for about 30 minutes in, of all things, a tuned up first generation Isuzu Impulse (aka Piazza) [0] at 2AM on I-5 heading south out of the SF Bay.

Blew up the turbo though, and had to limp it another 2 hours to get to my destination. I also got to learn how to replace the turbo and weld the manifold, since I'd cracked it.

Still, amazing memory. Scary as heck, and to this day I'm surprised I didn't die.

There is a science component to ideas in the shower. I read somewhere that the shower puts you into a similar state to the waking/sleeping transition that people like Einstein tried to ride by sitting and holding something heavy and loud, so if the slipped too far towards sleep they'd drop it and wake themselves up. I don't have any references to where I heard that though.

Similar lines, I read about some earlish computer pioneer that was offered a senior position at a company and the deal breaker was whether he could get a shower in his private bathroom off his private office. Company said no so he moved on. "I have my best ideas in the shower." I don't recall who it was, Cray sticks in my head, but I don't think it was him, someone similar though.

Sorry for the vast amounts of vague above.
At first, cable TV had no ads because it was funded by subscriptions. Then most cable channels slowly started adding more and more ads and demanding higher and higher rates from cable operators to carry their channels. Then the local channels started demanding rates from cable operators to carry their channels that are otherwise available for free over the air. Then eventually they even started showing ads at the movie theater before the movie you paid to see.

What is happening with streaming services adding ads was entirely predictable because the financial incentives of a company that adopts a subscription model are to add ads to the subscription once they think they can get away with it. If they already have ads, the incentive is to add more and more of them until there's pushback (i.e. the NFL has been cutting down on commercial breaks because they got long enough and frequent enough to become a common source of fan complaints when ironically the 2 minute warning was originally added to the rulebook in the early 70s to guarantee TV broadcasters at least one commercial break each half that wasn't because the clock ran out on a quarter).

This is why all of the people who want a subscription based model for online services that are currently free are hopelessly naive. If they get their way, things will get better for a few years and then will eventually end up right back where they are but worse because you'll have to pay for the privilege of watching ads.
I'd say it's foolish to turn to an encyclopedia, which by definition is merely meant to impart knowledge not much deeper than introductory, for information of critical importance.

Yes, spying is practiced worldwide by just about everyone. I never claimed otherwise. But that doesn't mean it's tolerated. Every country wants to spy and not be spied on.
Courts are generally more tech savvy than techies like to give them credit for. But it's worth mentioning that in recent years several US states have already passed legislation expressly forbidding courts from denying such evidence (even/especially if put on Blockchains rather than a more traditional non-decentralized network/database), and you can find similar stuff in other countries around the world (even China). And of course in lower courts (like small claims) or even mediation the standards are a lot looser, there's not even a jury.

I'd like a piece. Not because I expect any profit but because I like the idea of helping to fund new space tech. I assume this won't be open to the public as Musk has previously said he hates the idea of having to pursue short term profits instead of medium term mega success...
Wait, what? So because trading cryptocurrency on a centralized exchange doesn't involve a blockchain, the conclusion is "Most bitcoin investors never move their coins off the exchange"? I'm missing some vital step in your reasoning here.

There are legitimate use cases for hydrogen. Trains are a good example - electrification of medium to long distances (through tough terrain) is prohibitively expensive, as is battery usage for the whole journey.

Trains require a lot of energy to get started (where batteries work well), but then a relatively small trickle of power is needed: hydrogen fills this niche. Big companies are investing billions into this right now.
I believe the name is hydrogen fuel cell. It takes hydrogen as a fuel and generates electricity like a battery, instead of combusting it like a typical gas powered motor

The output of a hydrogen fuel cell is water, so it is a fairly sustainable loop if you can capture the water and generate hydrogen from it. But you need an efficient process to convert water into hydrogen

I'm curious: What is your source for this statistic?

[The current number is on Glassnode: https://studio.glassnode.com/metrics?%3Bm=blockchain.UtxoLos...]

FTX is one of the larger exchanges, and FTX bankruptcy headlines say they "may have 1 million creditors". See eg reuters.com/technology/ftx-officials-contact-with-us-regulators-filing-2022-11-15/

Edit: I'm trying to figure out if someone has actual stats or whether the statement is just intuitively guessing. There are so many bitcoin stats out there, it's hard to keep track of it all.
All of the rooms/corridors in my house except my bathrooms are covered by cameras. My initial motivation for installing them was to keep an eye on what my pets were doing when I'm not around, but I find in recent years that if I misplace something, I end up tracing back my history on the cameras and finding where I left it.

It seems obvious that at some point, AI will be able to do that for me and I'll just be able to say "Alexa, where did I leave my glasses?", "Hey Google, where did I put my box of spare fuses?".

Hi guys I'm working on WaffleScuffle, a social media site where you can share any content with your close friends. There are no follower counts, friend numbers, like buttons, or recommendation feeds. It's just you, your friends, and the content you create and share.

I'm trying to make the social media experience less distracting and more authentic. I think I've done an ok job of getting rid of distractions, but I don't know how to make it so the content people share is more authentic and less filtered. I basically want people to post spontaneously and without much thought rather than it being a highlight reel of someone's life.

Any ideas on how to make this site better are highly appreciated.

My dms are open.

Thanks :)

Writing "somewhat freely with the fellow countrymen", while not wrong, is unnatural. Same for "In such kind of language discussions". Those constructs aren't wrong, or even particularly bad, but to me they immediately out the writer as someone who does not have native-level fluency.
> Brexit had zero impact on me

Sorry, I stopped right here. That statement is delusional. Read a newspaper or something.
Yes, plastics hadn't been invented yet and there were still enough forests around to deforest that furniture could economically be made out of large chunks of solid wood. Nowadays, forestry requirements in most developed countries have (understandably) become tighter and it makes more sense to use less wood to make engineered wood products to build furniture than solid wood. Engineered wood products last a long time but still less than solid wood.

Also, when new, a lot of old furniture was quite expensive and families would save up for pieces. We get the benefit of that being used and transmitted now (though obviously particularly striking pieces will not have a reduction in value.)

While I certainly appreciate older, sturdy furniture (especially solid wood furniture as someone with some cabinetry background), I prefer modern lightweight materials, even if they last less long. They still last most of my lifetime which is enough for me. Marketing is not the issue, sustainable materials usage is.

There is a wonderful little story in Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged in which an highly productive essential worker kept receiving the smallest salary in the factory because his expenses (music records were his guilty pleasure) were deemed unimportant compared to the other workers' issues - until he just quit and the factory ran out of business.

I worked for several large consulting companies plus a little bit of freelance. None of them ever gave me a straight answer to what counts as a working hour. Even basic questions like does the clock start when I leave for the airport or when I get to the customer site? Or do I get a paid lunch? What about internal meetings regarding the customer?

I eventually adopted a 40 hrs/week policy where that's what I put on my timesheet regardless of how much I actually worked. Which is what I think most people settled on.

Is the core function of TSMC to serve Apple's needs or to make chips? Do you see the difference?

Individuals are. I buy more expensive boots knowing they'll last longer. Communities like the BuyItForLife or the Frugral subreddits discuss products and durability.

I know. And the less expensive version is part of the original plan. What disappoints me is that adding another, more expensive model can only consume resources that could have gone to bringing it down further.
While that's true, the majority of WMF's staff is not performing essential functions like IT. [1] shows lots of staff in fundraising, design, brand, marketing, communications, and advocacy type roles.

I think WMF's budget history [2] also proves that it's possible to run Wikipedia with much less funding. E.g. they spent $2m in 2006-2007, vs $146m in 2021-2022. They were already a top 10 website in 2007 (per Alexa), so things like traffic growth wouldn't explain that much of their budget growth.

It's like the existence of 40+ year old Harry Potter fans; the ones who were already adults when the books were first published. Hard to explain unless you acknowledge that many people are simple.

(At least with Star Wars, nostalgia for something they got into during childhood is a plausible explanation for anybody under 60 or so. But even so, I'm surprised more people don't grow out of it.)
What if as part of bankruptcy proceedings, especially for a that business goes under due to fraud (effectively a failure of transparency/oversight), the business's datasets were opened up to regulators or the public domain rather than treating them as business assets to be sold for cheap to the next exploiter. Then one could actually run these kinds of reports on real data, that would otherwise be kept proprietary.

The issue of one's "private" data then becoming part of a public dataset could be alleviated with deidentification, plus a better acceptance that when companies accumulate data about you, it's generally going to get exploited in some way or another.
Thanks! Over the years I've seen several companies raise VC money for the personal CRM idea and fail. In a way, I'm glad they didn't raise outside capital and are able to sustain themselves while building something that they are clearly passionate about.

Tether was actually created to solve the problem you describe. Traders needed to be able to sometimes park assets in dollars with an exchange (if they're exiting a position for example), but couldn't because of US regulations, so Tether was created and has been wildly successful.

And it's interesting how much hate it continues to get, especially from people in the US. It was released in 2014 and has maintained it peg since then, with trillions and trillions of dollars of value transacted in it. It's one of longest running and most successful crypto projects by far.

> does anyone use fedora as their desktop?

I've been using it since Fedora 21 which amounts to almost 8 years. In these 8 years, I've had zero problems with the OS - besides some proprietary Nvidia driver issues which are/were pretty common on Linux; since I've switched to AMD GPUs I haven't had any problems whatsoever. Upgrades go smooth every time, even when upgrading to beta versions.

Fedora is a rock-solid distro and I always recommend it over alternatives.
Neat that you initiate a SOS by dialing 911. This seems like a good way to ensure that the system is really only used for emergencies.

In general, I would expect that talking to a human 911 operator is going to be preferable to talking to an Apple SOS operator. But I wonder about edge cases where your cell connection isn't really strong enough for reliable voice comms -- would you be able to switch over to the text-based satellite SOS comms?
