The Trump Success through Big Weather Center?

Co2, CO, particulates, NO2 and volatile organics.

I guess it’s down to venting?

Exactly. Why didn’t he have a shooting range too?

Law enforcement investigating the shooting canvassed several residences to the north of the deadly shooting and found that all but one – Adams’ – had “suitable shooting backstops or firing locations,” according to the affidavit.

So… pretty much everyone in the area had a shooting range except the accused?

There are also refrigerators, washers, dryers and dishwashers that collect telemetry.

I’ve never found a compelling reason to buy a TV. Now if computer monitors ever go “smart” then I’m in trouble.

I disagree; I’d say the issue is HAVING to install and configure. Windows got where it is by coming preinstalled with a functional default configuration, allowing IT to set group policies to make and enforce configuration changes.

That can all be done with Linux today; it just isn’t.

Hard to enforce a GPO on Linux, unless it’s locked down like ChromeOS.

That’s really the limiting factor: liability and support costs.

I prefer tabbies.

AI is only as good as a sum of its human created algorithms and its human created training sets.

Which means, there’s no escaping the influence of politics; AI just means it will be permanently skewed and not as responsive to current political events.

Yes, actually. I can see the level go up slightly when the burners go on, but when the ventilation fan kicks in, the levels go back down almost immediately.

As a foil: I grew up with an electric oven. Used an electric ofen through the 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, and finally got a gas oven in 2017.

Because I was concerned about gas in the home, methane, CO, etc. I invested in a bunch of sensors so I’d know the moment any of it became an issue.

It’s been almost 9 years now, and I’ve yet to experience an issue.

However, that whole “you can use it when the power’s out” thing: can’t use the oven; the valve is electric. On my first gas range, the range wouldn’t even come on without electricity.

The pots and pans I use now are designed for gas and heat up fast, maintain an even heat, and cool down fast.

Essentially, I think not all devices are created equal.

I like not depending on a single utility for my energy needs, but at the same time wouldn’t shed a tear if methane production vanished tomorrow (I’d probably convert to propane short term and electric long-term).

Interesting. I presume that over time, MS plans to tweak the driver, increasing safety and security, and then start transitioning known safe devices over. Seems surprisingly responsible.

That’s an old cat!

It pre-dated Reagan. I’d say it started in the early 1960s, right about the time Boomers started becoming adults.

Except… they’re not the same thing. Geoengineering has been going on for over half a century, and involves dumping particles into different layers of the atmosphere. These particles are generally inert, but cause localized condensation.

That’s a totally different thing than the chemtrail conspiracies which argue that chemicals that aren’t inert are being distributed to make it into the air we breathe and the water we drink in order to alter the behavior of people.

Chemtrails are effectively closer to microplastic pollution than they are to geoengineering.

I just told my extended family how they can contact me, and accepted that I’d be out of the loop on some things.

You know those Nigerian prince scams?

They started because the Nigerian government is in collusion with the oil companies at the expense of the Nigerian people, who have had their fishery and farming practices destroyed by oil pollution.

The people found the only way to survive was join organized crime and scam rich foreigners.

Oil.

I generally post variations on this when similar questions come up:

The companies on the edges are all about marketing adtech firms to companies with money to convince them to spend it on digital marketing.
