So there’s this company called flock safety. They provide license plate cameras for the majority of police departments in the US. They’re talking about providing another service in order to do traffic analysis. It won’t be too long until they start selling data to advertising companies. You would say, so what they can’t know who I am based on a licence plate. Guess what? If you go to a gas station they could take a picture of your license plate and corelate it with your credit card in order to find your name. Imagine driving down the road and having targeted ads on a billboard.
You could definitely put some blame on the manufacturer, but in legalize you “knew or should have known” that there was a possiblity that your vehicle could hurt or kill someone. You sent it out into the world without a driver in it, not the manufacturer. I wouldn’t be surprised to see warnings and agreements attached to autonomous vehicles telling people that there is risk.

I think most gun owners tend to own quite a few guns. I also have seen where people tend to buy multiple AR-15 rifles in order to build something different every time for no discernable reason other than they like to build them and show them off. The issue is that the AR-15 platform attracts certain kinds of people who really don’t have an interest in shooting as a sport. If it wasn’t available I would guess that many of those people wouldn’t buy some other rifle in its place.
My wife is a district employed floater, aka full time sub. This would actually be a good outcome as she usually has to write 2-3 referrals a day and evacuate a classroom 2-3 times a week.

I remember a similar case where the police didn’t announce themselves and were trying to claim qualified immunity in front of a panel of judges. One of the judges said that he would have shot at them too.
Israel seems like a pretty antisemetic country to me:
Any Jew who immigrates to Israel as an oleh (Jewish immigrant) under the Law of Return automatically becomes an Israeli citizen. In this context, a Jew means a person born to a Jewish mother, or someone who has converted to Judaism and does not adhere to another religion. This right to citizenship extends to any children or grandchildren of a Jew, as well as the spouse of a Jew, or the spouse of a child or grandchild of a Jew. A Jew who voluntarily converts to another religion forfeits their right to claim citizenship under this provision.
Foreigners may naturalize as Israeli citizens after residing in Israel for at least three of the previous five years while holding permanent residency. Candidates must be physically present in the country at the time of application, be able to demonstrate knowledge of the Hebrew language, have the intention of permanently settling in Israel, and renounce any foreign nationalities. Although Arabic was previously an official language and has a special recognized status, there is no similar knowledge stipulation for it as part of the naturalization process. All of these requirements may be partially or completely waived for a candidate if they: served in the Israel Defense Forces or suffered the loss of a child during their military service period, are a minor child of a naturalized parent or Israeli resident, or made extraordinary contributions to Israel. Successful applicants are required to swear an oath of allegiance to the State of Israel.
Dual/multiple citizenship is explicitly allowed for an oleh who becomes Israeli by right of return. This is to encourage the overseas Jewish diaspora to migrate to Israel without forcing them to lose their previous national statuses. By contrast, naturalization candidates are required to renounce their original nationalities to obtain citizenship. Persons opting to naturalize are typically individuals who migrate to Israel for employment or family reasons, or are permanent residents of East Jerusalem and the Golan Heights.
Male spouses under 35 and female spouses under 25 ordinarily resident in the Judea and Samaria Area (administrative division for the West Bank under Israeli law) outside of Israeli settlements are prohibited from obtaining citizenship and residency until reaching the relevant age. The 2003 Citizenship and Entry into Israel Law effectively discouraged further marriages between Israeli citizens and Palestinians by adding cumbersome administrative barriers that made legal cohabitation prohibitively difficult for affected couples. About 12,700 Palestinians married to Israeli citizens are prevented from obtaining citizenship under these restrictions. Affected persons are only allowed to remain in Israel on temporary permits, which would lapse on the death of their spouses or if they were to fail to receive regular reapproval by the Israeli government.

Nah, I don’t really like being one on one with a woman at work because I might do or say something they see as “creepy” and then they’ll tell everyone I’m a creep. I agree that there are quite a few men who are thirsty as hell, but, not everyone is interested in you, don’t flatter yourself.
I just did some research on some supplements that might help with a medical condition my wife suffers from. There is a brand that has a suspiciously high rating on Amazon and has an F score on fake spot. I found some scientific studies about using the plant extract for her condition, but they look at if they have been written by the supplement industry as does the Wikipedia every for the extract. There are verified doctors on YouTube that talk about it, and say that it can help, but to be weary of supplements and the claims companies make. It’s still possible that they will help, but there’s no way to know until she tries it. Unfortunately, the most trustworthy source is the one with a bunch of reviews that people probably got a discount or free product to write. There’s a bunch of other brands, but those look even sketchier. I also found a few sellers on eBay who will send the powdered extract from India labeled from a company with a website that doesn’t load. Lastly, I could obtain a few of the plants and dry the leaves myself. I’m not sure exactly how many leaves I would need for one dose though.
So yeah, I did my own research, suck my dick if you have a problem with it.
I mean, even if some company has a practical need for it, or even just wanted to sell compute time on it, it wouldn’t be worth it due to the operating and installation costs. Although, it wouldn’t surprise me to see individual nodes from this poping up on /r/homelab, those guys are nuts.
It looks like each blade has 4 modules with 2 processors each with up to 9 blades plus management and networking in each blade cabinet and 4 of those in each rack. Liquid cooling is only an option, so it could be possible to run it on air only. I couldn’t find much on the cooling system other than it’s self contained if you have one if the separate cooling cabinets. It does look like is an air to water radiator. You could pay run it off of a pool pump or something.
