Since you are all knowing, explain to me exactly how deep earth mining is less costly and better for the environment than deep earth drilling.
Easy, just compare the amount of pollution required to make a battery and a solar panel with the amount of pollution required to extract and burn fossil fuels for the equivalent power output over the duration of the renewable’s working lifetime.
Oh, and don’t forget. Fossil fuels are useless without an engine to burn them, so you need to account for those infrastructure costs as well.
Do you want the math or would you prefer less reading and more pictures?
Patreon deserves to die, their cut of the subscription income is extortionate for what amounts to a very limited web hosting platform.
Open-source alternatives like Mirlo or Cloud Patron will take its place, it’s only a matter of time.
You’re joking, but you’re right.
Once the content has been created, the near-zero marginal cost of online distribution makes the concept of charging for copies wholly untenable.
The furry community figured this out years ago, our creators work on commission or paid subscription through Patreon or one of its ilk. They (mostly) don’t care where you freely share their work because they already got paid.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but if your screens are showing you ads then they aren’t your screens…
But you have to check to make sure the chatbot isn’t hallucinating the answers it gives you, so you could be even more efficient by just looking it up in the first place and skipping the extra step.
I am an expert in this and cryptographic chaining of a public ledger is like large language models, interesting but ultimately useless.
Giving your cryptographic chaining a pointless acronym doesn’t make it useful.
Public ledgers predate crypto BS by decades and are not improved by cryptographic chaining between entries.
There’s no benefit there that would be useful to anyone. If you need a public ledger then you can just do that and skip the crypto BS
Oh hey, Raspberry Pi still exists.
Did they ever fire that cop?
Food is produced for people to eat so then why is it so expensive?
I’m sorry, but you are mistaken. We live under Capitalism, where food is produced for shareholders to profit by. The fact that people need to eat food is just a market force that generates an exploitable demand for food products.
There’s no such thing as a free market.
Oh, it’s true. Even without any unlawful computer access, the amount of personal info your average IT furry can access is pretty astounding. There’s furries quietly keeping things running in the background across tech, finance, industry, science, and just about everywhere.
Our Bacon numbers are tiny, too. It might be six degrees for any two random humans, but in the furry community you rarely have to go farther than friend-of-a-friend-of-a-friend-of-a-friend.
So; if you’ve got a problem, if nobody else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire… A Furry.
At some point you have to ask yourself if it would be less hassle to switch now or to try and tough it out until Windows becomes unbearable.
Not much I can do about that, but I can at least keep them off my network so that info isn’t associated with my IP address and sold off to whoever wants it.
why?
For the same reason that one might block ads or cookies, of course. I don’t want a third party corporation profiling the bluetooth devices in my house and selling data about me to advertizers.
what does their device locator service have to do with your home network?
Apple’s device locator service uses the internet to report device IDs and GPS coords to Apple.
I’m genuinely curious, because nothing from that service has anything to do with anything that might happen on your network
Ideally, that would be true. But device locators necessarily report their snooping using an internet connection, and if they’re on my home network when they do it then they’d associate my IP address with my location. That’s way more of my personal information than I want Apple to have.
Seems like a distinction without much difference to me.
