I think we have. In my area many deer during hunting season spend the time within city limits where it’s illegal to fire guns. I am pretty sure they’ve figured it out.

I can’t imagine it would be any different than a new gold mine opening up somewhere in the world.
- Comment on Snitches get switches 2 weeks ago:
Well not as an individual but the owners/caretakers of the land are legally required to remove it and remediate the area.
- Comment on Snitches get switches 2 weeks ago:
Depends on the rules. Some places it would be illegal to disturb anything in conservation areas like parks but other areas it would be illegal to ignore invasive plants and not remove them.

- Comment on My kitten loves his hammock in the bathroom window, but my neighbor's trash pile ruins pictures 3 weeks ago:
I would probably send it a complain to the city.
Although you might not see it often due to the fence (can you not smell it) that much garbage probably is enough to cause substantial pollution being exposed to the sun and rain, and could also pose a fire risk if any batteries or chemicals made it in there.
There’s a reason people can’t just open up a business as a private landfill wherever they want.
- Comment on Gamers Are Overwhelmingly Negative About Gen AI in Video Games, but Attitudes Vary by Gender, Age, and Gaming Motivations. 3 weeks ago:
What I read was that they just used AI on some placeholder work which was already replaced by human made stuff before release but the AI stuff could still be found in the files.
- Comment on Gamers Are Overwhelmingly Negative About Gen AI in Video Games, but Attitudes Vary by Gender, Age, and Gaming Motivations. 3 weeks ago:
I think I read there was a game that had to do a HitFix because people were tricking the NPC AI into giving a bunch of free gear by just relentlessly talking to it without ending the conversation.

Mine has the 2 for volume and 1 for power, as well as a toggle switch to change from silent, vibrate, and sound for the ringer which I quite like.

I feel like any paper that’s published that cited a paper which got retracted, should automatically be reviewed and assessed to determine if they should also be retracted.

Some of them are alright, but I have no idea that they were thinking when some of the new ones got approved.

This isn’t age verification, it is ID verification. They don’t care how old you are, they want to know who you are.

Imagine the chaos in Europe if the ocean currents fail to bring warm temps up from the tropics and the UK, Germany, etc all start to get weather similar to mid-northern Canada which even Canadians try their best to avoid.
- Comment on Trump wants the NFL to change its name so that soccer is the only sport called football: ‘We have to come up with another name for the NFL stuff’ 1 month ago:
Why don’t you just call NFL foot ball, soccer? No one else wants to use the name soccer so it’s sort of free.
- Comment on Wireless EV charging hits 90% efficiency in Swiss real-world trials 1 month ago:
I wonder about the costs though.
If you can just have a plate on the ground instead of a interface and cord perhaps it might be useful in parking lots, where EVs can just park and charge while they shop without having the have the space requirements of the charging infrastructure.

Our butt is connected to our head, just with a really long tube. Shorten the tube enough and your butter would also be in your head.

I wish I owned HP stocks so I could sell them immediately
- Comment on HP plans to save millions by laying off thousands, ramping up AI use 1 month ago:
Anytime AI has been involved my customer satisfaction has gone down tremendously
- Comment on HP plans to save millions by laying off thousands, ramping up AI use 1 month ago:
They will save millions for a few years, but AI will make their already terrible company absolutely useless, and then go bankrupt and lose everything.
- Comment on Americans are holding onto devices longer than ever and it's costing the economy 1 month ago:
I spent $1000 on my Samsung (S6? I can’t even remember anymore) and it’s battery shit the bed after like 12 months and the charging port no longer worked unless the cord was exactly in a specific angle and pressure on order to recharge it. It was a pain in the ass and cheaper to buy a new phone than to fix it.
- Comment on Americans are holding onto devices longer than ever and it's costing the economy 1 month ago:
29 months is too long??? I consider that the absolutely minimum.
If my device doesn’t last at least 36 months I look for a new company. I aim for at least 48 months.
I refuse to buy Samsung or Google devices anymore, since they definitely did not meet my 36 month criteria. They didn’t even make it to 24. Google did at first with my Nexus 4 and I loved it but they shit the bed real quick after that.

No, whenever Trump is president years suddenly have 25 months in them. It did apply in 2020 but the phenomenon is back again.

- Comment on The simple test that blew up the FTC's case against Meta 1 month ago:
I really wish it were illegal for social media to prevent users from viewing the website without an account. X and Facebook are still used by governments to post community informations but without an account you can’t view it a lot of the time.
Prevent stuff like commenting and voting and liking but at least let everyone view it.

- Comment on kiss kiss, bang bang 2 months ago:
The prestige of a journal is ranked based on how often it gets cited (or in other words, how influential the papers are within the journal).
Wouldn’t this mean that other smaller journals could still publish the random common boring studies and then pretty much everyone would be citing those, since the boring stuff like “Trees consume carbon dioxide” would be cited a lot more than specific stuff like “Molecule XX~2~ can affect the brain development of Augustus caesarius if introduced between the ages of 3 and 6 months” and than become super prestigious?
- Comment on kiss kiss, bang bang 2 months ago:
I can see why journals would not want to publish boring papers in the days of paper magazines and limited space but why would they not be published digitally nowadays? Limited by people able to review them?
