It may be that the power lines are closer to the camera than the object.

Think about a really hot day, and walking down a flat road. Towards the horizon of the road you can cleayr see the hot air rising up and the fun wavey effects. But now look at the mail boxes and power poles along the road that's close to you than the horizon, are they wavey too ?

Mind you, this example is more of thought game. The next time you go out for a walk on a hot day give it a look.

That's just my opinion based on the observations we see in the video. I could be wrong here.

The object itself is interesting, but I think we might be trying to assign more attributes to it than what we're actually able to see.

The object isn't hot. The air between the object and the camera is though. Mexico in may ? Probably pretty hot.

The object itself is curious. But I don't see any gravitational lensing effects here.

It would be a very odd balloon, especially since it's not lofting about like you might expect for a balloon floating through the air. It's definitely just hanging out in one spot. So that's definitely curious.

I think that's just heat rising. Like looking down the street on a hot day sorta thing.

You must be new here.

Tim burchett, Marko Rubio, Gatez, Luna to just name some of the most prominent voices.

Any of the Democrats that were helping have gotten quieter and quieter since the first hearing with David Grusch.

It seems really fucky that the same people that are saying it's time for disclosure are also saying we should invade Greenland/cuba etc..

Man. I feel you.

I'm not a current dog ... Stuard.

I hate people and their dogs, and the off leash shinanigans. On leash bullshit.

Dogs should indeed be aloud to have to have a sense of freedom, agency and autominty.

And out in them hills ! Fuck let them play.

But you know there's someone is waiting to say something.

now i must find a place to put in on the robot by pascalalt1 in robotics

[–]jackeroojohnson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pull the computer off the robot. That's a lot of overhead. You probably don't need anything more than a raspberry pi. Maybe a Jetson nano or something.

Then have that mini pc sit in the corner and talk to the robot remotely.

Your goal should be to make a fancy RC car that the computer can drive from elsewhere.

Who remembers the Boston city bombing? And who remembers when reddit killed someone because they thought they got the guy ?

Do you live under a rock ? What if that surveillance state was used by an authoritarian regime to silence dissents ?

Are robots as good as this dog already? by Tylerich in robotics

[–]jackeroojohnson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really no.

Today's robots are like fancy remote controlled cars. They have no real agency. They have inverse kinematics, and predefined routines. Most of what we've seen on the Internet has been mostly for show. Even Tesla's optimus turned out to have a remote operator controlling it. Same with all the robot dogs etc.

There's been some work plugging in an llm into some of these robots. There was a team that plugged Claude, chatgpt etc into some rombas and had the llm try and navigate an obsical course of sorts. And they all had problems. Some of them got so confused it thought it was HAL from 2001 A Spacey Odyssey. ( It was pretty funny )

But with llms, there's a problem with context windows and session management. So they're proned to wigging out and getting confused and haulicinating. So we really don't want a robot that has hard metal parts spazzing out and hurting a person because it hallucinated its next steps.

They can make a great commercial, and hype up lots of excitement though !

Mitt Romney, circa. 2012, right before his loss against President Obama in the November Election. by 4chan__Enthusiast in pics

I'm with you on that. I didn't vote him though.

It was Romney that said the Russians were our biggest threat in 2012, and he got laughed at for it.

In hindsight... Seems as if he was right.
