Well in that case, I suggest you show up and demand they submit their Nazi for punching so you can buy milk from them

That's wasteful and dangerous

Harvest the beast for batteries and GPUs

I mean, I agree with all of that... I'm not saying we respect the courts crazy interpretation - but we do have to see the playing board clearly

I don't know... I'm seeing a lot of anger. The oligarchs are censoring even most social media now... But even so, there's so much anger. At town halls, at sports events, there's constant protests going on somewhere... It's being minimized, but it's there

The argument US conservatives love to put forth is "contacting Georgia's governor and asking that he conjure up enough votes to help Trump win, that's an official presidential request, it was totally kosher" is wrong, and no other words other than "wrong" need to be used to describe it. Asking a governor to rig an election is not "the exercise of a constitutional power [that cannot] be infringed on [by] holding the individual personally liable" because it is not a constitutional power being exercised. It is just corruption and authoritarianism.

The problem is this was ruled on (specifically) by the supreme court. Their interpretation is obviously wrong, but the court has all the same members, so it's unlikely to overrule itself for a while

Wait, did he figure out how security clearances work finally or did he just declare it on truth social?

I say we normalize this

"Hi, I'm here to punch Nazis and get and an oil change"

Make everyone declare they have no Nazis before you get into business

Loose lips shouldn't throw stones

Okay, so like ac in a capacitor smooths current, right? As opposed to DC, where it stores energy?

Imagine a positive and negative terminal with goo in the middle. Atoms move around it randomly in diffusion, but charged atoms are pulled left then right in oscillation. On average, they'd be in the middle

Those ions impart positive charge to the side they're on, so if your cycle is off in one direction or the other, they'd be pushed to the opposite conductor - smoothing the current

I'm not just talking about an insulator - I'm talking about an insulator fluid enough for ions to travel through based on the charges of the...I forget the word in this context, it's anode or cathode

Like rubber? Great insulator, but it's solid - you can't make a capacitor out of it (or a gate, but that's more about heat conductivity). So dielectric insulators must be fluid to some degree, right?

I think orcas are up next, they're the smartest and have the most wrinkley brains on earth. Maybe why they started sinking yachts... Because we're too smooth brained to to it

Like a year ago some high school kids were riding one of the motorized scooters around a store, and I turned down the isle and saw them. I just smiled and shook my head and kept shopping

One of them got scared and asked "are you going to tell on us?" I shook my head and told him "everyone does it at some point in their lives*. He scooted off to his friends and said I was really cool

I'm hanging onto that forever

Not really. We don't have to live in a society where every idea is used to extract wealth or exert power over others... We just happen to live in such a society

Yup.

I mean, there's no such thing as a perfect insulator (at least nothing we can build with)

It definitely resists the movement of free elections through... But think a capacitor let's ions flow, grease is a sort of fluid...

So I'm thinking it must be a material that let's atoms move around to some degree, but resists the transfer of electrons

What do you mean? It's a problem in your way, it takes how long it takes to get through it

I love the in between, where you have to actually adapt algorithms to useful situations

It's like 2% of all the work I do, but those moments stick with me

Perception filters? Absolutely they could be used for good... Being able to put window dressings on your reality is basically the AR version of deep dive VR

Not even that... Kids do it IRL, because they hear it so much online

The core problem is - Teslas suck. They're not the best, they're not the cheapest, they're not the safest or most reliable, and they don't have the most features. There's now electric cars out there that beat them in every category

That's why I'd prefer starting at 3 - you can count as occupying 2 homes. Vacation house, house you're trying to sell, condo for work - whatever. You get the one, past that I think you should have to figure something out
