Inductor,

Thank you

Inductor,

Nope, at least afaik. Prototyping and building cars by hand (without a whole factory set up to build it) is hard. Not to mention extremely expensive. And you have to build multiple (identical) copies of the prototype to get it street legal, because of crash testing. And you have to be able to guarantee that what people build with your kit remains identical to your prototype. Or everyone assembling such a kit would have to build multiple copies of the car and go through the certification process individually.

And of course there are very few people that would want to assemble their own car, so you wouldn’t be able to make a business out of it.

Inductor,

I would also recommend consent-o-matic. It works really well, and has a really simple interface for letting the devs know when it doesn’t work.

Inductor,

I imagine the film crew took out the windows so that they could shine the lights into the plane.

Inductor,

I’d like to elaborate a bit on why DNS can be used to track you.

Nearly all web traffic is encrypted (https), you can check by looking at the padlock next to the URL in your browser. But DNS requests aren’t encrypted by default. This means anyone, most likely your ISP our the admin of your home network, can see what domains you’re accessing. That means just google.com, lemmy.world, etc. and not lemmy.world/post/… This isn’t a huge amount of info, but it does tell anyone who’s looking approximately what you’re doing (googling something, looking at lemmy, etc.).

To fix that there are a few different ways to encrypt DNS requests, the most common of which (afaik) is DNS over HTTPS, which will encrypt DNS requests like any other web request your browser makes. I don’t know why this hasn’t been made the default yet. Firefox has a setting for DNS over HTTPS, it calls it secure DNS.

Inductor,

Have you tried using an automatic CAPTCHA solver (e.g. Buster)?

Inductor,

Amateur radio/ham radio. There are a few ham radio communities on lemmy, but they’re all fairly inactive. I occasionally check on some groups on matrix as well.

The next few years are looking quite exciting for ham radio, because we’re reaching the peak of the 11 year solar cycle. This gives us amazing conditions for long range communication.

Inductor,

A small, cheap holographic projector (as in projects a glowing volumetric image into the air that I can wave my hand through). It would probably work using femtosecond lasers, but making the optics small and cheap would be difficult.

Inductor,

I would use Universe Sandbox, it lets you do exactly what you described.

Inductor,

While, as you said, both wires will conduct electricity just fine, they will have different AC impedance.

I would guess this wouldn’t make much of a difference if you go Audio->Ethernet->Audio, since sound is at fairly low frequencies. But Ethernet->Audio->Ethernet might have problems with really high data rates, like GiB/s.

Inductor,

For me (but I don’t remember what settings I changed to make it do this) USB-D/LSB-D ignores/mutes the microphone, and only uses audio from my PC.

Inductor,

Peter Wiggin (Locke) as well as his sister Valentine Wiggin (Demosthenes) are Ender Wiggin’s siblings. After Ender was

shipped off to military school at age 6

, Peter convinced his sister to write on “the Nets” about the war, posing as adults using the Pseudonyms Locke and Demosthenes. They managed to get a significant amount of influence, especially considering they were like 10 years old.

Also, relevant xkcd.

Inductor,

If I remember correctly, Peter later also became ruler of Earth just through his political influence.

Inductor,

I don’t know about microchips, but we are running out of the type of sand needed to make concrete.

Inductor,

The referendum was (if I understand it correctly) about adding an advisory body of indigenous people to parliament. This wouldn’t have given them any power to make decisions, only to advise parliament on things.

The No Campaign just straight up lied to people saying it would let them write laws, take away your land, etc…

Inductor,

I’d try mysterytool -H

Inductor,

I always remember that port and left both are the shorter word, and have the same number of letters.

Inductor,

That’s odd, I’m using Connect and it gets the right post every time so far.

Inductor,

Yes, but it looks like it’s been inactive for a while:

!itsaunixsystem

Inductor,

I don’t know, I didn’t make this.

Inductor,

Thanks, I didn’t know where it came from.
