Quite a bit, actually. The RATGDO specifically can notify HomeAssistant every time the door opens, something trips the laser tripwire, the light goes on, the door goes up, stops, goes down, etc. And who said anything about "the cloud"? A RATGDO can report to an on-site HomeAssistant instance and literally nothing hits "the cloud".

So for your limited requirements, an RF control is fine. For those of us who have wider requirements, something like this gives us more visibility into the operations of the garage door, and lets us do automations based on the data it sends. And that's without even trying to control the thing from the RATGDO. And an RF is only control, no response.

With that data in my HomeAssistant instance, I can tell anyone in the house that the garage door just opened, which is most useful when it's dark out. I can also have it tell me if there's movement in the garage, or if the garage door has been open "too long".

You and I aren't particularly vibing lately, but I appreciate that link- that was cool as shit, and educational.

How do you end up with Mecha-Hitlers? Is that just natural understanding of that data, SS-Schütze?

"Chatbots" is a spectrum.

There's a near certainty you have already interacted with many without knowing it.
You imagine chatbots having a certain non-real feeling style. That's simply ones that have been trained to have that style.

Other chat bots pass the turing test better than a damn human impersonator

Political advertising?

I certainly haven't passively noticed any rules, lol.
Those ads pit pure fucking lies- without shame. It's fucking disgusting.

I don't think anyone shits on plumbers (no pun intended).

But you don't go to school for 4 years to be a plumber.
It's skilled labor, it doesn't take a professional degree. There is a difference.

And frankly, they're not even all that knowledgeable about the physics of the pipes. They know what they need to know to get the job done.
They might, for example, think it's ok to use a copper pipe for the condensation drain of your high-efficiency gas-fired tankless water heater, dumping pretty blue water all over the concrete below which is slowly being etched away by the nitric acid you're dumping on it. Ask me how I know ;)

Not a dig on plumbers. But they are vocationally educated. They're not physicists, chemists, or even hydrodynamics experts.

They hallucinate about as much as your average human partisan. They're just a lot fucking smarter, and so can back up those hallucinations without frustration and hand waving.

Frankly, it's bad. Our population is way too fucking stupid for this.

You election deniers are a fucking cancer that will kill this fucking Republic.

There is no intellectually honest way to reach 17 million without including policies that prevented people from voting in Blue states for Blue politicians as well.
You are then awarding 100% of those potential votes covered by those policies to Blue politicians.

You are slime.

Of course there is an equivalence. It's literally there in your sentence- "at a phenomenally higher rate than any Western power."
The second you emitted those words, you were wrong.

As I said, it's a spectrum- and there's no question that China is near the top. In terms of Great Powers, there's really on them and Russia.

Your YouTube video is as stupid as your posts.
The CCP having a super-member on the board of a corporation is just their way of exercising control.
It is not sufficiently different in effect than the Western system of courts and regulatory agencies.
It is not "Seizing Control".

Your assertion is that they *could* say no, despite evidence, provided by me, that they have been in this precise situation and not said no.
Your assertion is based on a vague claim that "they're not American", having no idea that the concent of fiduciary duty is not an American concept, even being enshrined directly in Taiwanese law.
You use an example of a risky business deal that they said no to as evidence that you're right, demonstrating that you do not understand fiduciary responsibility.

So yes, it does, and you're a dumbfuck.

It really works too. Robocop feels heavy and tank like

4k is a bit of a stretch for software decoding.

That's why it's 30%. As more devices support AV1, the number will rise.

The sane way to deal with it is to get Netanyahu to the The Hague for his war crimes trial, arrest the "Settler" terrorists, and dismantle the apartheid in Israel.

There were Jews living there, along side Arabs, long before Israel existed. Palestine used to be one of the nicer parts of that region. The way back to peace is for Israel to have a South Africa moment and a completely new government. Zionism has to be ended like apartheid was.

It's such a great movie, and predicted so much. Short news updates that trivialize important events, decades before Tik Tok, for example.

The costume is probably the best practical robot garb in cinema history. Believable, incredibly cool, moves really well (credit to Peter Weller there too)... It's perfection, and makes a great statue.
