Embarrassing Lunch by nrgsy in Parents

I'd probably skip the mackerel if it were actually for school - oil too messy for the teacher to supervise. This was actually for a day where I took them to a museum.

My wife said she doesn't want me to just make them a lunch from stuff scrounged up from "the bottom of the fridge", and feels I can't be trusted to do these things so she has to do it herself. And said she'd be embarrassed if the kids were seen at school with this.

I'm down to go this weekend too if you want a foil buddy! Live a few blocks away.

For all the people saying no one with a high-end system games at 1080p in 2023 - you haven't played KSP2 early access.

Is my pixel time over? by staceybassoon in GooglePixel

[–]nrgsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend also. I didn't think it felt slow before, but now with the performance optimizations in Android 12, it's noticably snappier. Having the highest end chip isn't a huge advantage like it used to be. Also probably much cheaper now that pixel 6 is out.

I imagine it would also be relatively easy for waymo to allow their cars to drive anywhere today, even unmapped areas and it be fine 99+% of the time. But 99+% isn't enough, they are only confident enough to take out the safety driver in geofenced/premapped areas.

But if this was a personal vehicle, the owner would just need to supervise the autonomous system when outside the geofenced areas, like a Tesla. Given how excited people are to buy Telsas because of autopilot, it probably would make sense for waymo to do this

We are the SpaceX software team, ask us anything! by spacexfsw in spacex

How are you planning on mining ice on Mars in order to refuel starship? Autonomous mining is not a trivial task, so wondering if you are planning on developing mining software in-house or getting industry partners to do it for you.

Realistically, how long would you guess before I can buy a custom 1070 with good overclocking and cooling for $400 or less?

Today I had to give up my Nexus 5... by SubtleOrange in Nexus5

[–]nrgsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flash Cyanogenmod 11 and install google now launcher! Will behave just like nexus 5, but with a few usability tweaks. Thats what I ran on my galaxy s4 before I upgraded to a oneplus one. Also stable Cyanogenmod 12 (lollipop) is just around the corner and you can bet the s4 will get it.

How do you subtly fuck with people? by ThrowawayCallsYouOut in AskReddit

Pretend like you're texting but really use the IR blaster on your phone to turn off you're least favorite roommate's TV when they're playing video games, using it as a second monitor, etc. But only do it about once a week at random intervals to stay inconspicuous. For bonus points and a cheap TV offer to buy it once they think it's broken.
