- Comment on Autonomous valet robot that parks on its own [00:30] 4 days ago:
I can see a handful of benefits to technology like this.
-
You don’t need the owners keys to move the vehicle. Thus you can retrieve or even rearrange vehicles at any time.
-
Better for the environment. You reduce unnecessary gas usage since the bots use electricity.
-
Can be used indoors. No gas means no fumes which means parking garages wouldn’t need expensive ventilation systems to remove the CO2 gasses
-
Better mobility. These can turn on a dime and move sideways. That means a parking garage that fits more cars and takes up a smaller footprint.
-
Potentially safer for the cars. This one rides on them actually perfecting the technology, but the bots could eliminate the risk of car damages due to human error.
Granted, I see this less as a technology for rich snobs and more as a thing for packed cities or huge businesses.

- Comment on Splitting Hairs, Splitting Atoms 4 days ago:
This is just what I’ve heard a long time ago so don’t quote me lol. But no, splitting a single atom shouldn’t do anything of note. I believe it’s the same general reason that a nuke doesn’t set the entire atmosphere on fire - you need a lot of energy to split atoms. That’s why nukes need enriched materials.
I also believe that even a nuclear explosion won’t be triggered by a single split atom in a bomb. For example, the Manhattan Project bomb was triggered by shaped explosives that surrounded the nuclear core. The blast of the charges “compressed” the nuclear material to the point it reached a critical mass that allowed a runaway fission reaction.

Fun little science fact: Heated objects glow the same colors no matter what they are made of. It’s called Black Body Radiation. The color chart shows what temperatures correspond with various “colors” of glow.
- Comment on Engineers Discovered the Spectacular Secret to Making 17x Stronger Cement 1 month ago:
In a new study from Princeton University, scientists turned toward the humble oyster and its iridescent composite material nacre for design inspiration.
Matching the characteristics of nacre at the microscopic level, the researchers were able to increase the toughness of cement some 17 times, as compared to a cement block on its own.

It’s called micro b superspeed. It’s basically micro-b with an optional extra connector to reach USB 3.0 speeds. Unless the device needs the extra power rail (like a 2.5" HDD), then you can still use a regular micro b cable to get USB 2.0 speeds.

The tell for me that it’s real is the fact that both ends of each manicotti noodle are the same direction. Ai would never get that perfectly right.

Also, it turns out Coatimundi are a type of mammal most common to North and South America. They are related to raccoons:

I’m guessing that’s a pop-up version? Like a good truck but longer term. Maybe they are there for a large term event or business. My brain’s thinking of stuff like the pop-up towns that appear near mines or big businesses that have thousands of employees.
Granted, it could just be a hella jank McDonald’s lol.
- Comment on PS5 Digital Edition consoles are reportedly getting a quiet storage downgrade | VGC 3 months ago:
TL;DR future versions of the digital console with come with only 825GB of storage but still cost the same as the current version which has 1TB of storage. AKA shrinkflation.

Thought you were talking about some scan with the name Logicool, but it’s actually the Japanese version of their brand. Seems to be legit too:
- Comment on I refuse to by a new mouse 3 months ago:
Had a Naga at first but refused to buy Razer after it broke (got quite a few years out of it). I’m on my second G600 and bought a third off eBay which is sitting on my shelf new and sealed. Of I ever get to the point that the third one dies, then I’ll maybe scavenge the first two for parts and repair one XD
- Comment on "The cat's out of the bag" - Stardew Valley update 1.7 revealed, bagged cat content TBC 3 months ago:
I think the article is alright. It has good info for people that know nothing about Stardew’s history regarding updates. Sure, for those of us heavily into Stardew it’s all stuff we already know, but most players don’t follow news like we do.

As a person who prefers shooters that are more tactical and methodical, I don’t mind those changes. Granted, I don’t really play battlefield that much.

This is good news 😊
Browsing Steam on an ultrawide monitor leaves an awful lot of unused space.

Hmmmm… In that scene he was lying. He very much did care. So the meme is really saying that you do care about what people with anime profile pics say, but you just don’t want to admit it… 😆

I think some people needed a /s for my comment lol.
I was thinking it would be fun to enrage people some more by labeling the left and right based on the picture and not the controller 😆

R and L need to be swapped. Right is on the left side and Left is on the right side!
- Comment on poaceae 4 months ago:
I mean, sure, those are all grasses, but no one is really eating the grass part of them. Unless they’re doing something more specific like ethnic or cultural food, the average person isn’t gonna be eating the leaves of these.
Sure you can gnaw on sugar cane. I can see corn husks being eaten in some dishes. lemon grass I don’t really know about beside being used to add flavor in stuff like grilling.
