You paint the outside, like big diesel manufacturers do. Red for speed, yellow for torque, blue for efficiency.
- Comment on World's first hydrogen drone sent into a combat zone 2 weeks ago:
WDYM about the exhaust, though?
With a cat it will mostly be water vapour right? Not really a priority at war but it’s nice. And HICE engines have higher power density, which makes sense for recon drones, unless the tanks nullify that.
- Comment on World's first hydrogen drone sent into a combat zone 2 weeks ago:
The exhaust? Anyway if the drone’s fucked you can convert the tanks into a bomb later lol

So… next step is to cut it’s wifi antenna and fill the ethernet port with superglue? Tech is amazing /s

Or get a laptop or some other device so the TV has no choice but work as a simple display. We’ve come full circle

- Comment on It turns out Saudi Arabia will own 93.4 percent of EA if the buyout goes through, which is effectively all of it 2 months ago:
And even then they massively fucked up by ignoring all the ddosing for years. It gave us Northstar but it’s a paid fucking game, come on man.
- Comment on Valve dev counters calls to scrap Steam AI disclosures, says it's a "technology relying on cultural laundering, IP infringement, and slopification" 2 months ago:
At least they kept some of the old ones, still kinda dumb that to access the old tags system you have to click search with an empty search field of all things. Also kinda weird that they killed old skins so fast, I don’t have anything against using SFP and patching in a new one but it’s gotta be really demotivating for skin creators.

don’t piss off the customers
Unless it’s their UI, they love to do pointless changes nowadays. On top of the stuff mentioned by other replies

Yeah but tucking it all back down means it’s not gonna be perfect and that annoys me greatly

If your headboard is big/fluffy enough so that it contacts the mattress it’s guaranteed to be a pain in the ass imo. Also a pain if you have a mattress protector or some other layer of different texture.

nah, happens even if your sheets are custom made

- Comment on Robotics Company Builds Straight-Up Terminator 2 months ago:
Wealth inequality isn’t going away anytime soon, but that doesn’t mean you can condemn the entire field of humanoid robots as useless/unreachable for the 99%. There’s probably going to be a point when a suzuki swift (geo metro for americans) equivalent of a robot will come along.

yea it’s our fault quotation marks don’t work half the time
- Comment on Robotics Company Builds Straight-Up Terminator 2 months ago:
To do what?
Chores and other stuff we don’t/can’t do. This has been the dream for decades now, so many decade+ old encyclopedias with “future tech” chapters show robots caring for people, sometimes as caregivers (for old people, or blind etc), sometimes as entertainers.
- Comment on YSK Joseph Stalin created the Great Terror. He started killing people randomly including artists, generals, doctors, diplomats, government officials. Everyone was terrified. 2 months ago:
I like the “moneyless” part of the definition, aka if you have a currency you’re not communist. Which, to be fair, they didn’t call themselves as a country.

Hey now, at least bitcoin has it’s uses. And if you have a farm for it I doubt you’re scamming on the side, that’s risky.
