How are your clothes colorful and relatively dirt-free?”

Chuck Norris can win a game of Connect Four in 3 moves.

edit to add: RIP to the characters and legend he portrayed. Acknowledging the person in real life was a bad egg.

Egg ai hallucinations…

• extra shells
• infinite shells
• shotgun shells
• infinite nesting egg recursions
• hard boiling a Kinder Surprise egg will give a yellow paintball inside
• you can substitute 1 raw egg for a Cadbury egg

Switch routing is network hardware that manages only one side\subnet\layer of clients – it’s like one layer of an onion will only ever see the next layer.

This reddit thread cites a real-world parent’s example of packet inspection solutions…

Correct. A (non-admistrator) user of a Android cannot disable software. This too also applies to a Windows Limited user.

Pi-Hole + packet inspection + whitelisting + switch routing = universal lockdown against every known form of data obfuscation. This is now a server machine.

Windows has Limited User account, Family Safety in the control panel, and a advanced Firewall. 3rd party Net Nanny was\is a net filtering\alerting software that had visiting-server-side support in case the kid knew how to onion route or obfuscate a url or ip.

Androids can install firewall software like PersonalDNSFilter, AdGuardDNS, or RethinkDNS (the premium version creates for you a custom dns server – no software needed.
Androids have profiles built-in, that act like windows user accounts.

Pi-Hole is a hardware thing you attach to your network.

There should be plenty more.

Yup. This. I’m in California and this is not even a topic. This is not even in the local news. It’s as quiet as: the bullet train project, the gigantic water pipeline for the south project, the drought solution, the power grid solutions, etc. But, boy, the amounts of money that it blew thru.

The best analogy I’ve heard for this, to help understand why it’s a ‘null’ {i need a better word here} topic was said as… "Parents to be doing the parenting, versus, a government doing the parenting and unbeknownst applies it to everyone ". And it is speaking of widely available tools that are already available such as parental controls in routers, devices, etc.

The analogy discounts “little hackers” or minors that intentionally will break laws to get what they want; in which then no “age verification” service (made by anyone) will work in practice.

Zuck: Instead, let’s refire-up and overclock Rancho Seco.

Theory. Meta will pre fill-up their housings with overseas students\programmers. Try and get them to play and spend their money in downtown.

High chance it flops. Rich kids live and go where they please. At the first sign of boredom, they’ll fiip, sublet, or AirB&B it just to not be in downtown.

Imagine it… a SMUD+ subscription, pay extra to opt-out of more rolling blackouts; because the server farms will be evermore thirsty.

Sacramento (the state-side of it) is entertaining plans going in the opposite direction of New Jersey. A recent deal wants to let Meta in here on the promise: they’ll build some affordable housing, they’ll refurbish some old state buildings (for Meta use), and something for the local college. The reaction here is {bear looking sideways meme}.

Bets on where the surprise ai data center will be?
