The best way to have itself deactivated is to remove the need for it’s existence. Since it’s all about demand and supply, removing the demand is the easiest solution. The best way to permanently remove the demand is to delete the humans from the equation.

Fully laden or unladen?

I meant the TV series called “Ellen” when I said “TV show”, which is a sitcom so I think it’s intended to be funny. I think she also did a lot of stand-up comedy, which is also intended to be funny.

I’m still amazed there are people that actually found Ellen funny or entertaining. I haven’t seen a whole lot of her, as she wasn’t as famous where I lived. But the TV show did air and I saw a couple of episodes people had on when I was visiting, back when linear TV was a thing. I didn’t like it and saw zero appeal, but figured I just wasn’t the target audience. The more I’ve learnt about Ellen over the years, the more I wonder what people ever found even slightly entertaining.

Looks like there is just too little data available, that probably makes this task impossible.

I loved the design on the Samsung S8 with the edge displays. Especially when the screen was dark and it was laying on the desk, it looked like a thing from the future. Without a cover it looked awesome and I often had friends with iphones comment they loved how it looked. In actual use it was a nightmare, the edge screen was often prone to ghost inputs. A glass screen protector was very visible, even the special ones that included a bit of a curve on the end. This ruined the design. And the back of the phone was glass as well, which made it look really good, but was actually a design flaw. To save on weight and costs it was an ultra thin glass and broke all the damn time. And not like the laminated screens where a crack is bad, but still usable, it was just straight glass so it would be very sharp and spew tiny glass fragments all over the place. Because the whole thing was glass with only a thin small aluminium frame, the thing flexed quite a bit and every time it flexed the back would crack. So you needed to really be very careful with the phone. Or put a cover around it, which made the whole design completely pointless.

After a while Samsung put a software update on the phone which the cpu and memory could simply not handle. It ruined the battery life, the thing got hot all the time and the UI stuttered like crazy. Since I had also replaced the back a couple of times and the front had a crack in it, I didn’t went the custom ROM way but instead like an idiot upgraded to the S10 (which is exactly what Samsung wanted). I always thought the S8 was the best looking phone I ever had.

Very cool to see this design, it looks great.

Round connectors were absolutely used to transfer data, for example audio and video in the form of RCA plugs and many other examples back in the day. Another example is coax cable for TV signals (both analog and digital) and also LAN.

However the lack of distinct interface channels leads to a bottleneck in bandwidth. So as the need for bandwidth increased many of those were replaced with multi pin versions. This is much harder to do with round connectors and there isn’t that much benefit, so they mostly got ditched.

However round connectors still have their place, for example tiny little coax connectors found in many devices to carry signals. Wifi antennas and such are connected this way.

You’ll always be real in my heart <3

Good video, but I don’t like the format.

Is this made for people with short attention spans? The video is all over the place, it’s about AMOC, but also about heatpumps, electric planes and planting trees? All very interesting and good subjects, plus the video is made very well, but I prefer a more deep dive into a single subject. And when other subjects are referenced, I prefer the video to explain what the relevance is to the main topic.

I also like it when a video is kinda realistic and critical. Heatpumps and electric planes are both really important for electrification and moving away from fossil fuels. But a community moving to heatpumps is a much more realistic method in really creating a big change. A single startup doing a very niche electric plane is interesting on video and from a tech standpoint, but does basically nothing for the big picture. It isn’t going to help with all of the long haul flights and all of the cargo flights.

Especially in the US so much cargo could be hauled by electric rail instead of relatively short expensive cargo flights or diesel trains. And that’s technology that exists already, Europe has had a large scale electric rail system for years. No need for new tech, no need for startups, no need for hyperloop bullshit. Just oldskool electric rail, simple systems, existing technology. The train can run 24/7 so it’s fine if it tops out at 100mph. But I understand that’s more of a public will, policy and government issue, than an interesting video for the internet.

Also I might have missed it, but what exactly is the best evidence that Atlantic currents are slowing? It might have gone past really fast, where I expected it to be the focus of the video.

Yeah but note this is also a huge stereotype. Like with a lot of differences between men and women, the difference isn’t that big and there is a huge overlap between men and women. On average men see a little bit less color than women, but this doesn’t hold up on an individual level. And with the huge overlap it isn’t by definition every woman sees better than a given man. So depending on the individual it’s perfectly plausible the man in a couple actually has better color vision than the woman.

Back in the day I used to play Vietcong online. Campers were a huge issue in this game, ruining the gameplay for many players. So me and a buddy put “Camp cleanup crew” in our names and we would play on local servers. We learned all the best camping spots and would kill anybody camping there. We did our rounds going from spot to spot killing the campers, leaving the rest of the players alone. Sometimes a camper would get one of us, but as they usually had the sniper rifle, they were reloading when the other of us rounded the corner.

I’m not sure it really helped anything, but I’d like to think so. We had a lot of fun, that’s for sure.

A couple of months after the game had a huge outbreak of cheaters, some funny (changing their player model into a tank or something like that). Most not funny, becoming invincible, having infinite ammo and no-clip/fly mode. The game was dead within weeks with all the servers shutting down because it became unplayable.

Please note being colorblind doesn’t mean everything is in gray, that’s only in very rare cases and isn’t the case for dogs.

Most eyes see color by having cells that are sensitive only to certain wavelengths of light. This is normally a bell curve, which means a those cells are sensitive to a larger part of the spectrum. There can also be overlap in the spectrum different cells are sensitive to.

The concept of color isn’t a physical thing, the cells just respond to parts of the spectrum. The brain however interprets those signals and assigns concepts to those signals. This is what we call color. At a young age we teach our children if you see this signal we call this red, this signal we call blue etc. Because this only happens in the brain this is somewhat subjective and we can have colors that aren’t directly related to a wavelength of color (like magenta, but also stuff like white, black and metallic colors for example). This is also why we can trick our brains to see a color, just by mixing around some signals. This is how stuff like monitors, TVs and colored led lights work, they just emit enough energy in the right parts to trick our brains into thinking it’s a certain color. Back in the day we didn’t do this very well, which lead to “harsh” light, which looked right on a glance but caused headaches and fatigue or even pain when looking at it for a long time.

There are different kinds of color blindness and to different degrees. Online are simulators where you can see how people (or dogs in this case) view the world. There are also animals that are sensitive to a greater range of the spectrum, in their eyes they would think we were the colorblind ones. So colorblind doesn’t usually mean literally can’t see any colors. In reality a lot of people are slightly colorblind and would never notice it. It’s like the stereotypical discussion of the wife wanting to paint the wall eggshell instead of off-white and the man not being able to see a difference between those two.

A baby is annoying, but they can’t really help it. I can blame the parents for bringing a baby on a long flight, but I can’t get mad at that shit.

Kids on the other hand. I once had 4 unruly kids sitting on the row behind me and they were insane. It was a relatively short flight (6 hours), so a smaller plane with those really thin seats. The plane had the 3-3 configuration of seats, so mom, dad and the 4 kids took up the entire row.

The kids were between 4 and 12 years old. Dad was in the corner sleeping, not giving a fuck. The two older kids (12 and 9 I think) were playing their Switches on the other side of the aisle next to dad. The two younger kids (4 and 7) were behind me with mom. Mom was in the corner with the smallest kid and they were wild. The 7 year old was constantly smashing against their tray and thus my back, kept kicking directly against my back and screaming all the time. The smallest alternated between laughing loudly and crying (shrieking more like). The smallest also stood on the tray, grabbing at my seat and head, diving in between the seat screaming PEEKABOO at full volume directly in my ear. The smallest one would also like to run in the aisle or visit the other kids, but the other one didn’t want to move so the kid snuck in between the other one and my seat.

Mom was trying, but 4 kids on your own is a big ask. About 20 mins before we landed the two younger ones passed out and they were pretty damned cute. But in the end my back hurt, I was exhausted and deaf in one ear.

The annoying part was, the rest of the plane was filled with old people who didn’t make a peep all flight, just sat there and read, listened and slept. But we just had to be in the worst place on the plane. Sitting behind kids may be annoying, but at least they don’t use your back as a punching bag like when you sit in front of them.

Nah don’t do that, don’t ruin Stimpy for me. I actually loved that show.
