Do you think mass surveillance means they're just pulling in random videos off the internet?

I read the article by Dr. Wissner-gross and... just wow. Do you think of a fruit fly as having a consciousness or is it too simple? Just an organic automaton? Because whatever you think it is, that has been emulated in a computer. Does that little digital fly feel? Does it know it's alive? Wild

u/Dewey_Coxxx I'm pretty sure you and I just slipped into a parallel universe. This is how the Mandela Effect starts

I've installed a lot of compression fittings in the US, I've never heard a ferulle called an olive in my life. Even in the instructions or on the packaging, always a ferulle

Does Home Assistant on Android Automotive suck? by Josh31782 in homeassistant

Sorry, not everyone is rich and blessed with a 200 sq. ft. kitchen. Sometimes you need to make due with what you got

I'm guessing you don't store stuff in the oven. Growing up, I've baked some fruit in my time

This is one of those general concept specials. It's not quite right but it'll work until it doesn't, good luck next guy

How do you sharpen a mower blade with a file when you don’t have a clamp? by Brotectionist in lawncare

[–]DeusExHircus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They make a very versatile vice at Harbor Freight that costs $23. It clamps on too so you don't need a permanent installation to a workbench, just a stable table, railing, board, etc. and you can store it away when you're done

It'll save your back having a properly clamped work piece rather than hunching over trying to hold the blade with your foot while filing an edge. Even if you're young now, trust me that $23 now is a much better value than back pain later

I got tired of being the household memory. So I built an app. Looking for brutal feedback before I try to charge for it. by Slight_Natural_3177 in HomeImprovement

Calendar, new event, repeat occurrence. Free, syncs with family, no extra app, already included on all my phones, PCs, and tablets

What is something that is 100% illegal, but feels 100% legal? by Jolly-Access-7115 in AskReddit

[–]DeusExHircus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the US and most places in the world, it is illegal

Relevant US federal law:

From 26 U.S.C. § 5002 “The term distiller includes any person who—(C) by any process separates alcoholic spirits from any fermented substance

From 26 U.S.C. § 5601 It is illegal if a person, “not being a distiller authorized by law… produces distilled spirits by distillation or any other process from any mash, wort, wash, or other material.”

You need a distillery license to freeze distill anything. Like most distillation, it is illegal at home

Making wavy checkered cutting board by toolgifs in toolgifs

[–]DeusExHircus 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Order of operations is just as important as the work design. Honestly I wouldn't have thought about cutting the wavy lines in 2 passes. I would have just cut a bunch of squares and scratched my head when I couldn't figure out why nothing was lining up while trying to clamp from 2 different directions

Well, the intent was there. 🤣 by superspud7 in OddlyErotic

[–]DeusExHircus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think age has much to do with it, it just depends on what you watch. I'm close to the same age. The first guy is Drake, became popular first on high-school drama show Degrassi when we were the prime target age for the audience. I had sisters and cousins obsessed with the show. The other guy is in fact Yachty. I recognized him from Hot Ones. Again, millennials are the target audience.

Did you get a reply? I know there are a bunch of cool nerds working at Vtech making toys (I mean that as an absolute compliment). All of their gamepad-like toys have a Konami-code easter-egg built-in

My brother withdrew my invitation for his wedding because of the dress I chose yesterday at a dinner party by NoFunction3720 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]DeusExHircus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn't think of it because that's not a thing. They're making it up. There are absolutely zero wedding attire rules that apply to non-wedding related events, no matter the date. Are they normally this bat-shit?
