I mean maybe, it’s just a back of napkin calculation i didnt spend more than a 5s search, think of it as a lower bound I guess. I don’t think my conclusion really changes if it’s 40% vs 20%, point is that it’s more than enough to power peak usage. I tried digging a bit more but couldn’t find anything that contradicted or confirmed it. Here in Canada 1MWh per month is typical for an electrified house (ie electric heating, cooling and stovetop), but our houses are big, our electricity generally cheap and our climate different.

Wikipedia lists avg consumption per capita for China as 5MWh/person/yr, half that of the US, Canada and Australia but that doesn’t take into account household size which imagine is higher in china. Also worth noting China has been adopting evs relatively quick and they generally take a huge amount of power.

I got it from here

So an average Chinese home takes ~1MWh/mo of electricity, they have 100Mwh and they say 300 discharges a year and support 12000 people. So they expect this to cover about a fifth of the energy usage, which seems pretty great.

It’s not common but the pixel 8 has an infrared sensor in the camera that they advertise as being able to measure the temperature of stuff. Apparently it’s fda approved to measure body temperature.

Not to be cynical, but how can you monetize peertube as a creator. Even if you are established enough to do in video sponsorships, your sponsors aren’t going to really accept views from peertube when they evaluate how much your worth. So it either does nothing or it sinks your career.

They don’t appear to even have basic protections against ai. They didn’t even get rid of the context menu to download them, and the app shows up in google image search which means google has the thumbnails. It’s a losing battle, if you can see it so can ai, but they could at least but a few speed bumps.

Inside out tracking sucks and is the main reason I still use my index. While I see the advantages of wireless, personally find it much more important to not have to charge it.

If this application is legit it’s going to get snatched up by Apple/Amazon/Google to make their voice assistants better, right now they can’t handle cross talk at all.

Fair enough I thought I was taking crazy pills for a bit there!

I’ll admit I don’t know much about apple products, but I can’t find any reference to a camera on any apple watch. It’s not mentioned on the spec page or in any reviews I can find. It would also make features like remote camera kind of redundant.

Could you show an example of one of these smart watches? I use a garmin vivoactive and it most definitely does not have a camera, and is their premium line. It’s 5 years old now, but the new models don’t have it either.

Most smart watches don’t have cameras so Machine vision-y things.

Obviously the pin is way off from where it would need to be for that to be useful though

Helldivers with friends have been fun, don’t think I’ll ever play with randos tho.

I picked “the swindle” back up with the intent of 100%, just got to win in 1 life, which is challenging but easier than I expected since you start making huge amounts of cash as your win streak increases. Highly recommend this game it’s got a lot of replability for what is a fairly simple game.

I also started “chronoark” it’s a deck builder roguelike. Story seems a little too verbose at times and I think I may have to ramp the difficulty a bit (I got a fun meta cut scene for winning my first run and breaking the story) which might be why I feel like I’m spending more time in story than playing. Still having fun so far.

I prefer Dpad for platforming and top down as being able to move precisely diagonal is more important than speed control, plus the analogue stick wears out quicker and dpad allows switching directions faster. Analogue for driving and therpy gamess

I am a younger millenial and didnt have a cell phone until they got smart but most of the people I knew in highschool had blackberries or their knockoffs which had full keyboards. I still passed the capatcha though.

Skibidi toilet is actually one of the first gen alpha memes, not gen z.

It will be interesting to see if tiktoks newest big selling point (relatively free from US influence) will be able to offset it’s loss in users.

The Obama AMA was in 2012, That to me is the turning point for reddit, it’s when it’s population exploded overnight (which meant old users could no longer enforce cultural norms for the platform), it’s when news media really started taking the platform seriously and I think when a lot of the political influence of reddit was realized.

I genuinely think he’s trying to scuttle the site to hide negative press for him and other billionaires.

Sure he could have just shut it down immediately as he bought it but if he did that, everyone would go to a single alternative, doing it slowly means that the people leaving go to a myriad of smaller (weaker, less likely to survive and less influencial) sites instead.

They killed the vertical task bar with that update, which seems like such a pointless thing to disable.
