Re:AI helps ID paint chemistry of Berlin Wall murals on Monday December 16, 2024 @03:01PM (#42434776)
If it would help identify & persecute these "artists', i'm all for it.

A couple hundred hours of social work and cleaning up after themselves by doing their own paint removal / paying for restoration would be good enough, no jail needed.

talking about your run-of-mill vandals, not commissioned / sanctioned murals.

Lotsa words, mostly BS.
Re:I replaced my son's school timetable app with an e-paper on Sunday December 15, 2024 @10:39PM (#42427825)
> Your paper planner won't inform you that your first hour is in another building tomorrow or that the teacher is ill (and yes, the schedules would change less than 12 hours in advance).

Strangely, we (Gen X) managed to do it, w/o being up2date. So you came into school and found out teacher's ill, etc? Cry me a river.

We even managed to do w/o knowing if our friend was available - we just rang the doorbell. Imagine - all w/o a phone! Not even had a landline!

Bees dorksy parents, i see...

Didn't they know read meat, or meat in general, is bad both for you and the environment? Quick HNers, build a time portal and teach them!
