I came here to look for this and add it if I didn't find it.

Lunar "soil" is essentially neutral, just needs some additives. Conversely, Martian "soil" is actually poisonous. Additives alone aren't sufficient to get things to grow in it, you need to remove the poisonous parts first.

Net: It's easier to grow plants in lunar rather than Martian "soil".

Lots of people use similar musical constructs in their songs and nobody gets the copyright for any of it. For example, Lean on Me is a C scale. Not everyone who writes a song that walks up and down the C scale, nor even the same portions of it as are used in that song, has copied from Lean on Me. But this is what we are going to get from an AI that detects these kinds of similarities. It will not be able to tell anyone that they copied it specifically from them. More trash, move on.

The UHF app on our Apple TVs & iOS devices and the UHF Server in Docker to act as a PVR gives us everything for a few $ a month paid in crypto.
We haven't had cable since ~1999-2000. Downloading and the *arrs have kept us happy, but the better half wanted to check out some live sports. So IPTV it was.

I've used Claude at home for ages. Work was wanting to get some AI stuff for us and the only 'blessed' one is CoPilot. Everything else it blocked. All senior management seems to know about AI is "Hurrr... Copilot and ChatGPT."

Out team of ~8 (pentestesting & VA) were unanimous about Copilot being crap and Claude being the top dog. So some higher ups OK'd a Claude Teams package for work. To bypass the CorpSec tards, we use it from our lab environment that has its own unmonitored link and IP range.

Anthropic/Claude is just so far ahead of OpenAI/ChatGPT and MS/Copilot it's not funny.

Comment First, define ultra processed foods (Score 2) 299

The term ultra-processed foods is one of those "I'll know it when I see it" definitions so far. Until they can actually define what that term means and use that as a meaningful way to identify foods that have common characteristics that may be bad or good under what circumstances, then anything someone says about his dangerous they are is full of shit because there is no category.

Comment Re:"buy for me" sounds like a bad idea. (Score 1) 28

they will be liable for 'errors' because of their guarantee policy. they don't want to deal with it, and I don't blame them. but this rule can't stand for long. once the market is full of only automated agents, they will be missing a market opportunity that others are taking advantage of so I see this as a temporary legal reprieve for ebay.
