I guess I learned stuff today.

My only acceptable IoT scenario is where all hardware is open and we can indeed flash music software onto it.

I don’t know why I’m replying this deep to play devils advocate for some stupid knife, but I could see a situation where you haven’t completed the research on optimal frequency and ship it out while that’s ongoing. Maybe the window of optimal frequency is narrow enough, or unknown enough, that it’d be difficult to calibrate a potentiometer such that the end user could find that ideal point.

Is the Winter and East thing a forced coincidence in search of the quadfecta, or is there actually colder climate in eastern China(?) ?

Also requesting there be a Xessex and Unessex

We are testing a different, longer term hypothesis now, which is whether they can become functional adults after being parented by non-functioning adults.

I should have been more specific and less snarky.

If we can leave our dogs in our houses for several hours, I think it’s reasonable to leave our dogs in cars for several minutes (assuming climate control). I felt “Never” was too extreme.

I learned with kids that less total but uninterrupted is better than more total but interrupted.

Should you be allowed to leave your dog at home?

That makes sense, thanks!

I guess folks in this thread are talking about different voltages, because I don’t understand how proper PPE can protect you from something that will vaporize your clothes and set you on fire.

This is so George Costanza

I assume it’s such a clear cut case due to the betrayal of the promise of monogamy. And you can’t use the “it’s so common it’s futile” argument in a rebuttal to the morality of meat consumption!

I found the website you linked to be easy to digest. Impressed with their work, from the perspective of someone who uses Linux but doesn’t know too much about this stuff (other than patch good). I like how they gave credit to both the human and AI.

You’re a hero. Now I can be upset about Frebreeze too.

I’m with you on the cornucopia, there’s no way that logo didn’t exist somewhere.

Wait, I’m a zealous camera defender, what am I missing?

The one they put up temporarily by my kid’s school noticeably calmed traffic near it (myself included—I’m not perfect).

I like the trickle so that I get a regular dose for a long time before you run out!

Yeah that’s a good point.

I guess? It’s a different species so I’m not sure I’d use that one.
