My last phone from 2018 had like 48 sensors on it, including thermometer, so yeah that indeed is a thing. But obviously OP’s photo is showing Apple pulling numbers
out of thin airfrom whatever weather station, not from any internal sensors. - Comment on Slice of ketchup anyone? 3 days ago:
Fuck, you’re right, I forgot the slice of pickle and slice of raddish.

I’ll take a slice of peanut butter, a slice of mayonnaise, and a slice of banana in the middle.

- Comment on Should people report AI music channels on Youtube? 1 week ago:
The artist behind Obscurest Vinyl writes all his own lyrics, and at least for the time being, they’re choosing to bring their lyrics to life via AI. Though they have said that they’re an actual IRL musician as well and eventually plans to get more music equipment and something of a band together.
I personally don’t see much of anything wrong with it, as long as they’re not trying to fool anyone or falsely represent the likeness of any particular real life artist, living or deceased.
But hey, I get it, whatever floats your boat either way. If you don’t like AI content, nobody’s making you listen to or watch any of it.

Yep
- Comment on Should people report AI music channels on Youtube? 1 week ago:
Now that depends, are they trying to fake an actual existing or deceased human artist, or are they literally and openly using AI to make up silly nonsense from non-existent artists?
Example: www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-x_01TNTr0
I do find Obscurest Vinyl very ridiculous and funny, and they never try to delve into deepfaking any actual human, at least not to my knowledge…
- Comment on Memories of defragging your computer 1 week ago:
I still use Defrag for oldschool DOS/Win311/95/98 virtual machine disk images. After I’ve got the VM image set up the way I want, then I’ll defrag it, then write a nulled out DUMMY.BIN to the root folder filling all the free space, then delete the DUMMY.BIN file.
Doing that greatly improves compression of the final archived disk image.

Lossy compression compounds artifacts.

- Comment on What did I do now? 2 weeks ago:
The other day at our city park, a dude came along in his truck, with a trailer and a 4 wheeler on the trailer. He just wanted to enjoy a ride around in the good weather.
Not much of a big deal really, but they don’t like people parking or driving on the grass, and they definitely don’t like people driving a motor vehicle on the walking/jogging track…
Welp, someone called the cops on him, and they sent 3 police cars out for him. Within about a half hour of the cops talking with him, he was arrested, and they sent not one but two tow trucks, one for his truck and the other for his trailer and 4 wheeler.
Apparently, going by the inmate search I did later, he was stubborn and didn’t care to obey the cops, and also charged with resisting arrest. The way the inmate report read seemed like the cops tried giving him a warning and an out, like take that shit out of the park, but he was too stubborn to comply. 🤦♂️
So now he’s in jail plus he’s gonna have at least 2 vehicle impound fees, maybe 3 if the impound considers the trailer and the 4 wheeler as 2 separate vehicles.
Fuckin’ dumbass, it should be common sense to like not drive a motor vehicle on a walking track at a public park.
Whatever, not my problem.

I meant whether it’s a plastic hubcap or a full aluminum rim. Either way I know the posted tire is already on a rim…
For the seam, yeah that’s gotta be a plastic hubcap.
- Comment on D: 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, tubeless rims are formed in a mold and don’t have seams.
Unless by chance it’s just a plastic hub cap… Maybe… 🤷

We tried one once, but it made too much of a mess. So did the saw…
So we opened the valve up to steady flowing water, no longer a water jet, and attached it to the saw to rinse it off while in use. Rubber gloves highly recommended, electricity bites hard yo…
- Comment on What's the deal with AI datacenters using water for cooling? 2 weeks ago:
While you’re effectively right in your comparison, you also must understand the difference between electronic data center cooling vs vehicle engine cooling.
Vehicle engines run best at a higher temperature range than electronics, so they install a thermostat, to literally bring the engine temperature up to a suitable range for ideal performance. But the thermostat is not necessary (unless you live near cold polar regions and want heat).
The thermostat can be safely removed from vehicles in more comfortable climates and the vehicle will run just fine, but just quite a bit cooler.
So, take the concept of a closed loop cooling system, remove the thermpstat from the equation, and you got a more viable closed loop system more suitable to keep electronics cool.
