Yes, but at some point they always wind up involving their corporate lawyer droids in the decision making process.

TFA says it only self-balances at low speeds, so the only automation here besides adaptive cruise is self-parking. That is very much not self-driving on the street, but it's also potentially quite useful.

A Raspi with 1 core and 512MB can recognize ~500-2000 different objects. It's no longer expensive to build autonomous assassins. I've been saying for years here that the future of war is toy technology, and here we are.

It seems unfortunate not to get the advantage of imnprovements to gparted. Of course, for most systems of that age, it's reasonably simple to remove the storage device.

The promise of quantum computing is that it will make that cheap, though. I agree it may never come, or may not come for decades even if it does, but let's say it does. You know how big the first transistor was...

In which sense?

We know he believes in vaccines, because his family is vaccinated. If he can believe in vaccines, he almost certainly believes in antibiotics.

Why attack the uneducated dipshits stating bullshit as if it were fact? YMBNH– Earth that is. That's part of how we got here, by which I mean, another globally rising ride of fascism.

Speaking of rising tides, you know what's spooky to see, even though it's not surprising? How little most people care for their children, and their children's children, as evinced by their unwillingness to allow positive changes to occur because they might lose their trivial privilege.

kenh's main schtick here is downplaying bad shit in defense of excessive capitalism.

It's never been a secret, they've been telling us they want to do all this stuff for decades. Literally for my whole life they have been saying they want to end social aid programs and reduce the size of the government and let businesses perform functions for profit, they wanted to end birthright citizenship, they wanted to make America white again... Most people have just been in denial about it, and what it means.

True, he was more of a Captain Cook, as he was a slaver and a rapist.

There is plenty of room to criticize both. You also can't arrest the system, but you can arrest frauds. Fuck their conclusion.

That's some clown-ass clown shit. People were interested in them, but they were cancelled, they didn't get cancelled because people lost interest. You will make any shitty excuse for shitty behavior because you're a shitty person who wants to live in a shitty country.

Then you only wish you were dead.

Correct.

Kennedy and Noem are disruptive. You say you want nothing different. Your description of a response to this disruption as a "hissy fit" runs counter to your narrative. Pick one or the other going forwards if you want to be taken seriously, thanks.

That does a lot, and you should do it. But it doesn't do it all.

You can do an ad filtering web proxy with SQUID that can do the rest of it. In the past when I had a separate Linux-based firewall/server running nonstop, I set up such a proxy and used packet mangling to send the connections to the proxy without proxy configuration. If you wanted unfiltered internet, you connected to a proxy on another port. That way it got all the devices.

AFAIK to do this today meaningfully, since everything is encrypted, you have to install a certificate for the proxy on the browser? Haven't looked into it since I don't care any more, I use noscript and ublock origin together on Firefox, and the only "server" I have running nonstop is just an AP with the transmission daemon and a 512GB SATA SSD in a USB3 adapter I got for about tree-fiddy on aliexpress.
