I have never seen that symbol before. What currency is that!?

And wait, no you’re thinking of a different thread. This thread mentioned no such thing.

They can connect to open WiFi spots and just ignore the fact that you didn’t connect it.
- Comment on The TV industry finally concedes that the future may not be in 8K 5 days ago:
Depends on the signature.
- Comment on The TV industry finally concedes that the future may not be in 8K 5 days ago:
You can use your router or access point tools to check what address it’s trying to resolve and then set up a redirect to a device that can respond with a fake response.
- Comment on The TV industry finally concedes that the future may not be in 8K 6 days ago:
If you are at a business you should have an access point or router that is capable of blocking specific devices from WAN access. But I would create a new segmented network, block that network from WAN access entirely, put it on its own VLAN, and then connect the TV to that network.
- Comment on The TV industry finally concedes that the future may not be in 8K 6 days ago:
That doesn’t, unless you’ve blocked your TV from network access, because they use ACR - Automated Content Recognition - that literally scans what is being displayed over your hdmi port and then sells it off to advertisers.

Looks like they answered why already!
- Comment on New York Startup Builds Fridge-Sized Machine That Can Turn Air Into Gasoline 1 week ago:
So, once again you are incapable of explaining how it’s not carbon neutral, though you think you are. Carbon neutrality has nothing to do with development costs and construction costs are almost always dwarfed by running costs (which I literally mentioned if you would bother reading).
You’re just angry it’s not a miracle machine.
I’m not the one getting angry. You are making a bunch of bullshit claims and then getting mad that people don’t believe your lies.

They’re an “optimized for gaming and high speed workloads” distribution as far as I understand. Lots of customizations to GPU drivers and what not for games.
- Comment on Linux Gaming Developers Join Forces To Form the Open Gaming Collective 1 week ago:
Wonder why CachyOS isn’t in the group.
- Comment on New York Startup Builds Fridge-Sized Machine That Can Turn Air Into Gasoline 1 week ago:
There are lots of claims going around, but the physics just isn’t there. Battery storage density isn’t high enough currently (and doesn’t look to be close) to support large planes. It’s the same problem as with 18 wheelers. The larger the vehicle, the battery size increases superlinearly, not linearly. Because adding in battery storage increases the weight required to carry the vehicle, thus increasing the battery storage needs, thus … and so on. With liquid fuel, the weight is variable based on the passengers, and the weight drops as the flight continues, thus increasing fuel efficiency the more weight is lost.

No, but I did go in shorts and a t shirt. So I had to leave in those clothes too.
- Comment on New York Startup Builds Fridge-Sized Machine That Can Turn Air Into Gasoline 1 week ago:
No I’m asking you to explain how it’s not carbon neutral. I do not give one shit about the cost, I do not give one shit about how much the gas it produces costs (for reference the Porsche plant is at over $40 a LITER). You have stated it’s not carbon neutral. Explain how. If the machine does what it says then it is carbon neutral.
I have an electric car, I do not care about this machine. But I do care when people claim something and have zero evidence to back it up.
- Comment on there i fixed it 1 week ago:
I don’t get the reference.
- Comment on Ugh... I forgot to pack a towel 1 week ago:
I’ve done that before. It sucked cause it was also 14°F out. So I had to drive home in the cold while wet.
- Comment on New York Startup Builds Fridge-Sized Machine That Can Turn Air Into Gasoline 1 week ago:
Please do explain how it’s wrong. Go on, I’ll wait.
- Comment on New York Startup Builds Fridge-Sized Machine That Can Turn Air Into Gasoline 1 week ago:
If you could link that it would be great. As far as I understand it, a commercial passenger plane (which holds several hundred people) is no where close to being possible. If you are talking about small planes that hold maximum ten-15 people then sure.
- Comment on New York Startup Builds Fridge-Sized Machine That Can Turn Air Into Gasoline 1 week ago:
The efficiency doesn’t matter (to a point of manufacturing solar cells, or wind turbines, or whatever your equipment is for your renewable energy source). If all of the gasoline is generated from the air using renewable energy, it could take 100x the energy and still be completely carbon neutral. Carbon neutrality is based on the amount of excess carbon added to the air. If no carbon is added then by definition it’s carbon neutral.
Porsche already has a factory in Chile that is doing this exact same thing at a much larger scale.
- Comment on New York Startup Builds Fridge-Sized Machine That Can Turn Air Into Gasoline 1 week ago:
The particulate matter won’t occur in a hydrocarbon that is generated, that comes from imperfect processing of crude. If you pull the carbon directly out of the air there are no particulates.
But yes it will still be carbon neutral. No additional carbon will be released back into the atmosphere.
- Comment on New York Startup Builds Fridge-Sized Machine That Can Turn Air Into Gasoline 1 week ago:
No they do exist! But most scientists agree that we are unlikely to ever see commercial airliners using it, nor will freight liners use it. We would have to see ENORMOUS scientific improvements and many many many things that seem incredibly far fetched invented to get to that point.
- Comment on New York Startup Builds Fridge-Sized Machine That Can Turn Air Into Gasoline 1 week ago:
How about you go argue with the scientists calling it carbon neutral. My wife literally works in the field. It’s called carbon neutral.
- Comment on Soda pop 1 week ago:
Coke makes more sense than pop, since coca cola was literally named after the term.
- Comment on New York Startup Builds Fridge-Sized Machine That Can Turn Air Into Gasoline 1 week ago:
It’s not worse. It’s carbon neutral (as long as the energy source is renewable like the sun). Any carbon it takes in will be released exactly back to where it was. It’s a much much better option than digging up oil.
On top of that, there are currently no likely possibilities of replacing gasoline for things like planes. So replacing their gas with carbon neutral gas will improve the situation by 100%.

- Comment on YSK that Chris Hughes, one of the founders of Facebook, says the company must be dismantled 4 weeks ago:
Here’s the thing. Famous people have been going on and saying things like “Facebook is bad” for over a decade now. Those people you’re talking about already had the chance to get past entry level.
The “entry point” isn’t “listen to billionaires”. It’s “stop listening to billionaires”. These are two fundamentally opposite ideas so there’s no chance for the first to be an entry point to the second.
