  I have never heard the phrase “runs on the edge”, and the article uses some form of it a half times.

  My only results for “edge devices” refer to networking. Is that what they’re trying to say?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to use a domain I own to self-host services?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  How would you go about using a different subdomain without something like a reverse proxy? Heck, in my head that’s almost the only reason I use a reverse proxy

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What sort of grill needs a firmware update lol⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In regards to your apple mouse example, surely it’s relevant to know how long the charging process is. The hangups I would have are when the interruption happens, how quickly is it resolved, similar to your points about the firmware on the grill.

  If it takes 30 seconds to recharge to a point of usability, fine, no real harm. But if it takes 10-20 minutes to get to a usable state, then we have an issue.

  A related scenario is if the Nintendo switch drains completely of battery; even plugging it into a dock and trying to play docked, you still have to wait upwards of 20 minutes to give it enough juice to boot back up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Poll suggests half of Canadians believe Israel is committing genocide in Gaza⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I got that same impression. Like this isn’t a matter of belief, it’s whether or not people are rejecting facts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WaaaaAAALLLEEEeee⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know much at all about the EV industry, especially how their technology differs between manufacturers. But does that really matter, strictly speaking? Like the majority of “other” repairs are going to be just as uniform as traditional vehicles; things like tire changes, brakes, suspension, and whatever else I’m not smart enough to know about.

  Other than the actual engine itself, can that other stuff really be fully proprietary, or non-servicable?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If not intentially a minority and I get into a fight and I did not know they were gay, palestinian, jewish, or whatever. Can I still be charged with a hate crime? Or does one have to know first?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought being religiously motivated also would qualify as a hate crime? Or is the implication that one’s religion is also immutable?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you see a bunch of otherwise normal people with the same odd behavior then you are probably seeing the effects of a marketing campign. The effects can last for years, even decades.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t love to defend advertising/marketing, but your statement implies that once something has been advertised, organic interest/enjoyment becomes impossible.

  Sure, there might’ve been a big ad push that rocketed mayo to the top of people’s condiment lists. But there are dozens of other things that could also create interest (new foods that pair well with it, new recipes that are shared culturally, loss of a competing product, diet changes)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are the exact ramifications and consequences of the recent meeting with Zelenskyy and Trump/JD?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m unfamiliar with the mineral rights treaty specifics, but I remember it being said that it was a pretty shite deal for Ukraine anyway, and that it likely wouldn’t have been signed anyway

  I only went back to read the comment because you told me you upvoted it. I wanted to make sure it was worthy.

  !it was!<

  Don’t forget the kidnapping and holding against their will! Gotta make sure they have time to realize just how rich you are.

  Agreed. Not sure it’s quite $100k cool, but still cool.

  If it want a really good 4X game

  Is this for real?
