Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Hypothetical: Humanity is planning a year of shutting off the internet to quell the advance of the AI singularity. You can keep your computer but there will be no networking. What would you do to prepEnglish
2·15 days agoI mean, a self contained LAN is still feasible. Data can be a transferred through an air-gapped method like flash drives, DVDs, blurays, etc. It would probably be largely fine for most things, just slower.
Of course, any long-distance communication method could be compromised. Cell towers would be a huge risk, radios could be unsafe, and even cameras could be a risk since they can see a long distance. The power grid could send signals in the minute voltage drops as things draw more power.
In short, we’re fucked and we can only pick the speed and intensity.
I have found almost all radio status near me play a mix of 12 songs and ads. Tuning in to any station was likely to result in ads and not music.
My radio is tuned to static so I can get into my car without being forced into hearing an ad while my Bluetooth connects and I can start playing a book.

Tried that when I bought mine, they just slipped a license plate ad on anyways. Threw that shit out when I got home.
Disregard the establishment, surely; It was some time ago.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•What a nice blue and black dress.English
241·1 month agoThe connected boxes show that the same color appears on both sides; however, the colored boxes provide context based on the lighting which is further reenforced by the rest of the dress outside the box.
Technology Connections did a video about brown that has the same color of orange on a background that cycles between white and black and the color of orange seems to shift to brown or orange depending on the background.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is private age verification technically possible and if so how?English
10·2 months agoYes, and one with unrestricted internet access. Can you elaborate on how someone underage would abuse this system? They can’t buy one at the store, can’t reuse one that has expired so finding one won’t help, and if theft is a concern they would just need to be secured like any other restricted good. I would say it’s at least as secure alcohol, tobacco, or firearms.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is private age verification technically possible and if so how?English
43·2 months agoYou know how there are stores that sell restricted substances and verify your age by checking a provided ID? Have those same stores sell a cheap, sealed card with a confirmation code on it. You can enter that code online to verify any service. The code expires after a set period of time after it’s first use to prevent sharing and misuse.
This system would be as secure as the restrictions on the restricted substance, such as alcohol, so it should be fine for “protecting the children”

Tap for spoiler
The incest doesn’t happen until like act 3 and even then it’s only as a possible outcome foreshadowed in a flash forward.
Are you drinking water with meals? I find washing something down, even a single chip, causes you to drink more than you could by itself.
Also, keep it at hand. A refillable bottle is worth investing in. If you like it ice cold, get a vacuum insulated vessel.
