I was allergic to cow milk products as a kid and usually had goat milk products, and even that tastes nothing like cow milk. I couldn’t imagine anything made of a plant being any kind of replacement for cow milk when a different pasture raised ruminant’s milk isn’t close enough

If I correctly recall the Hoffman video on frothing fake milk you need different temperatures and techniques compared to milk, and you get an inferior result

A stuck pedal turns the steering towards the barrier? I think the driver had a stroke or heart attack and stopped steering

At 3.18pm on 10 May 2018, Stefan Meier lost control of his Model S on the A2 highway near the Monte Ceneri tunnel. Travelling at about 100kmh (62mph), he ploughed through several warning markers and traffic signs before crashing into a slanted guardrail. “The collision with the guardrail launches the vehicle into the air, where it flips several times before landing,” investigators would write later.

The driver crashed, it doesn’t sound like it was in self driving mode.

They don’t have a uniform

Indeed, but cheaper than enough batteries to cover those times

In the off grid home scale one I’d size and set the generator to run for several hours in a row to fully charge the battery on days when the battery was at a sufficiently low charge entering the night, at least that’s what my current modelling suggests. Diesel gensets work best when running fully loaded for at least long enough to warm up

I guess at grid scale you find the sweet spot where most years the gas power station and batteries are balanced to provide cheapest power averaged over the year

The diagram shows that they fall short on winter mornings

My own modelling to decide what size battery I want for my house says it’s easy almost every day, but when you have three rainy and overcast days in a row you need a battery far larger or an alternative. For me the alternative is the grid; at grid scale it’s gas generators

I presume you know you’re lying, that’s why you named yourself jerkface

I wonder if people who think AI is “just a bunch of if statements” think programs work like Penny thought they did

What else could he do? If he tried to help her and burnt his Trump flag he’d be deported too

I use keepass, it’s a little more work than many closed source ones, but it’s only as online as you want it to be, and runs on anything

My “smart” bulbs are at the less online end of the spectrum, they host local wifi or bluetooth for configuration via their app, but even that can bite you

I added a wifi range extender to address the problem of stuff at one end of the house regularly losing connection and needed to point one of a particular brand at the new wifi

Its app hadn’t been updated and I needed to dig out my old phone stuck on an old version of Android to set the bulb up again

You lost a bit of credibility when you misspelt atoms

They choose a pool of jurors randomly. You don’t need to pretend to be uninformed until you’re in the room (unless you comment under your real name), where they select the actual jurors after each side has excluded some

You don’t believe in the public being part of the decision making about which laws are just? That’s part of democracy.

I use it mostly for family chats, I got the extended family to use it rather than Facebook Messenger

What makes you not trust signal as against WhatsApp?

I think you’re fairly safe here. People using AI tools professionally generally like them, only overuse and careless use are seen as bad here

Out on general Lemmy though you’ll get down votes for comments in favour of AI

Imagine getting that design past review

The insecurity of SMS is the inability of telcos to secure number porting. If someone wants to compromise your shit, they can easily steal your phone number, if your phone number is sufficiently public

One defence is to have a second service that is only used for authentication, and never share the number except to those providers that need to message you codes
