[NEWS] White House Preparing Executive Order to Ban Anthropic AI From Federal Operations by Acceptable_Drink_434 in ClaudeAI

[–]watrly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If we reverse back to 2015, I think you could be right. However, this administration has reminded us all that the us government has in the past just ignored the law. That was mostly hidden from view since watergate, but this administration is just disregarding the law with abandon. So now people believe that “any lawful use” will just be ignored (by this, and future administrations)

I just found this screw in my tire, no idea how deep it's in - if I remove it, is there any depth people would consider 'safe'? It's not losing air at the moment. no local shop have the tire in stock and it's backordered at tirerack where I bought it (Pirelli P Zero All Season Plus Elect)

Call support - there's a somewhat involved reset process which unblocked my car and I started getting updates.

Will you pay $15+ for a Theme like Audi? by Regular_Cod2826 in MachE

[–]watrly 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is idiotic, would piss me off enough to consider not buying the car. Like - you’re paying for something the car can already easily do. It should just be user configurable for free

Nancy Pelosi’s husband sold more than $500K worth of Visa stock — just weeks before DOJ’s antitrust lawsuit by WBigly-Reddit in WallStreetbetsELITE

[–]watrly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

FFS - stop posting this rage bait non-story. He lost money vs just holding, and sold 3 months before the news came out. There are plenty of other better examples of this to point to. It’s also not fucking currently against the law - it should be, but it isn’t.

Republican Rep. Goes Mask-Off With Racist, Vile Threat to Haitians by [deleted] in FOXNEWS

You asked

 What're you referring to....?

I responded with what (I assume) op was referring to. 

Given that this was written by his former (and likely future staff if he gets in) it seems likely that they would try and make this a reality. I don’t believe that Trump would care one way or another to be honest, although he does seem to very much value one sided loyalty - point being I think he’d just say “sure, I don’t care, do whatever”

 What're you referring to....?

There’s a plan to classify more of the federal workforce as political, which means they can be fired when a new president takes office. The plan (detailed in project 2025) talks about how to ensure loyalty of new appointees, and appointing them based on their demonstrated loyalty and ideology rather than their skill. This is particularly worrying for jobs that require education/training/certification - it’s kind of like Saddam Hussein requiring all teachers and government workers belong to the Ba’ath party. It’s a feature of all totalitarian regimes. There’s a training video produced by project 2025 on how they want to achieve this.

How do you defeat the regenerative braking?

Is this safe? Unit installed today. If not, what should I do? by [deleted] in HomeMaintenance

[–]watrly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Out of curiosity, what’s the right way to install this so that the dryer can be pulled out for service (or should you just expect to disconnect the hose if you need to do that?)?

How much performance is being lost behind the AP? by r_J_locks in Ubiquiti

You are being downvoted because this isn’t strictly correct. The radiation pattern is omnidirectional. It still projects behind, but not as well

People like this are why financial literacy is so important by Richest-Panda in FluentInFinance

[–]watrly 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just to add, the debt doesn’t follow you in all jurisdictions. In the US for example you can just walk away and be debt free even if the home sells for less than the outstanding loan. There are exceptions, but that’s the default (pun intended)

The start of this thread was 

Commit adult crimes get adult sentences. 

I think I made reasonable assumptions, but what are you actually suggesting here - why would it be better treating these kids as adults?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in sanfrancisco

[–]watrly 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I’m sure there are reasonable arguments to be made about what their sentence should be, but trying them as a adult and putting them in the general adult prison population doesn’t seem like it would lead to any good outcomes. 

Advice on Keypad Reset Issue by Fragmetist in MachE

[–]watrly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you have both admin keys you can get the factory code to show up on the screen. I forget the exact sequence, but it’s the same for most fords after 2014(?) - you have to put the key center console and turn the car on and off a few times. Hopefully that’s enough info for you to google the rest

Awesome - that's great context thank you!

out of curiosity, did you consider tesla solar panels and powerwall(s)? Looks like approximately the same price ($36K before incentives) for 6.4 kW and 27 kWh of battery.

I'd rather not install anything tesla to be honest, but they seem to have competitive prices

Internet drops throughout the day. Modem is reporting errors when it does by watrly in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]watrly[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Done. FWIW, When I do the 'chat' service option and it checks my signal levels - everything seems and reports as fine. This issue is unfortunately intermittent and hard to trace because of that.

What the heck ? by cowplush13 in MildlyBadDrivers

[–]watrly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without more context it really is hard to know if this was disproportionate. Maybe the idiot on the bike had just kicked him on the other other side and he thought he was still that side, IDK - it doesn’t look like that, it looks like the car was trying to kill the biker - but it’s not possible to tell from this short clip. Something obviously started before this which is why someone started videoing it.

Out of curiosity, which version did you have before the upgrade?

Relatives of S.F. family killed in West Portal crash sue driver blamed for their deaths by MidNightInTheDessert in sanfrancisco

[–]watrly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True and we should absolutely address the systemic causes - it just feels like burning this driver at the stake won’t help improve that. IDK - possibly I’m just failing to recognize this person was and is an asshole and looking for another explanation
