I dig this variant!

What's even worse is when on presenting the check the waitress tells you 18% tip already included.

I've seen it normalized for parties of 6 or greater...but not for any party size until recently.

I find that completely wild. If that's the case it should be posted and announced prior to anything taking place.

Incidentally it was the worst service I had ever gotten in a very long time, presumably because it didn't matter at all

It was actually removed though. But they left the pole up and someone saw an opportunity to place the flag.

I drove past one with a literal American flag planted on it today so maybe we are taking back the Homeland alas?

It was a beautiful thing.

The state ordered the cameras removed but they left the posts, someone stuck a flag inside the old post.

I moved 3 pallets of 60lb bags 4 days ago. You have to move heavy stuff from time to time. In these exact moments you learn how to plan for the next time to avoid moving things very far.

Normal construction just isn't that straining to be wearing a exoskeleton.

Even extreamly heavy stuff like countertops, there's purpose built stuff to move these things the last 100 feet already.

In construction, if you know a heavy thing needs moved you procure the means to move it long before expecting someone to show up with a exoskeleton.

I'm not saying it's not cool. I just don't see a major efficiency gain. And, I don't see why anyone would want to rely on a exoskeleton to perform their daily job.

Meh, and yet anyone can run a relay or onion service in a few clicks.

It's the best tool regular people have for privacy without a doubt.

>The regular person using it doesn't get as much of the privacy benefits, but the charade is making it seem like they do.

Just false.

If your model is simply to avoid corporate surveillance and tracking its a fantastic defense.

If your trying to go up against nation states, it never claimed to protect you from that.

>None of that material handling is cheap.

None of it is handled directly by humans either. Exo skeletons would be sweet, I just think in reality construction is already highly optimized for regular strength humans. Would be very slim productivity gains.

I was just thinking trades wouldn't benifit that much. We have trucks and cranes and stuff.

What construction material weighs 100kg? All the stuff is made to be installed by a guy or two. Big stuff is hoisted with cranes, heavy concrete is pumped. A sheet of plywood is carried by one man, a cement block gets plopped 2 feet from where it needs installed one by one, doors and windows are a one man show.

In reality you can't get past a 2^256 limit of dev/urandom cspring without introducing your own random number generator which is possible.

But yeah its easy math, lets say the pair is 1,000,000. Thats 1,000,000! possible combinations. You could stack 1,000,000 PB drives across the universe and not be able to store all the unique combinations.

Seems pretty un loseable to me as well

Is there any understanding of how it's even 50b? Makes no sense to me.

I think onion services are actually a really great way to make a BBS service. It's extremely easy to setup.

Here's a little demo forum I've been working on. Can runs on a potato.

What's the best morse code software out there?

The builders are building, if you can find what they build is another thing.

Most are perfectly fine building stuff without being found out. That's not the fun part of why people build things.

Although there is satisfaction in knowing something you built getting used.

It's not the path of least resistance to get the cameras banned. It's been a highly resistant path and that's what most people want.

Flock took the path of least resistance setting them up often skirting any normal discussion that should have taken place with the community before they were installed.

Cool I like it but I wasn't able to setup a box, I get errors. I made a similar alternative with this ethos. https://gitlab.com/here_forawhile/tmailplus

You don't have to trust the host, cause you are the host!

I'm a big fan of codebooks.

This is my own codebook. Instead of word level coding, it uses phrases, paired with a enormous amount of duplicates.

Open a room on one chat network, and everyone who subscribed on any chat network gets a way into it.

It's not a good analogy cause no one sues each other for little hammer injuries. It's more like the guy who gets wacked saying 'hey what the heck man that's my distinct hammer design but you made a machine that makes almost precisely my exact hammer and I hold a patent for this'...(or something like that)

There was a challenge awhile back to describe a picture in 1000 words can't remember where I saw it. The winner just made a encoder/decoder to turn jpeg into words. The image was somewhat compressed but contained more visual data then you could accurately represent in the same way a raw description could. I thought it was so cool.

So the investigation originated because some one hacked and impersonated her?

I've thought about a few scenarios.

Could fool leaders into triggering a nuclear war.

It's really good at hacking. So imagine people with ill will messing with important things snowballing into chaos.

Could be a massive centralization of power and oppress people into a big ole classic rebellion and civil war.

Or it could just straight up crash the economy in unrecoverable ways. As a whole it's basically the largest collective investment into a thing we aren't even sure will be profitable still. That doesnt workout long term.

Ultimately I think your intuition is correct. It's not the AI per se...its what people will do with that power and its completly uncontrollable. The will of the weilder isnt nesscarily going to be your intrest. Its not going to outsmart humans in the long run... I dont see that happening.

I've seen a hundreds of videos of cops catching drug smugglers and I fail to see why flock is needed to catch them.

There are tell tales and cops are good at seeing them. Mass surveillance really isn't needed for that police work.

What's crazy is you used to just be able to buy them on eBay. I can't find any now...but that simple fact means you could somewhat easily just use the shell and plop one anywhere with custom internals pointing at whatever you wanted pretty inconspicuously.

We are in alignment. I'm probably just not conveying it correctly.

>All I am saying is that if they want your data, they'll get it. It's just easier at the border.

That's fine, and I will do everything I can to make it as difficult as possible, not because I have something to hide at the end of the day, but because screw that what a terrible future to pass on to the next generation.

>Your home can be searched and all your devices at home can be seized as well.

You need a warrant to search my home. That's my whole point. Warrantless access is the issue.

Get a warrant, and I will happily show you anything you want. Nothing will be found because at the end of the tunnel, I actually have nothing to hide, I'm just a regular guy is my point.

Sorry, but its not 'I have nothing to hide so who cares'...it's 'I have nothing to hide, and you also have absolutely no right to access my data and I will make that as hard as I possibly can.'

This is different than arguing 'I have nothing to hide and also because of that you get free reign to everything'?

But really, I don't take nudes cause why?, my financials are remarkably average, I have no medical history that I care about people knowing (broke my hand once), I've haven't broken any law's, I don't use credit cards...?

That doesn't mean you are allowed to access my devices on whims, track my daily movements relentlessly.
