Blackview BL9000 Pro: New rugged smartphone with thermal imaging camera, 5G and very fast charging
  • I'm w/ you on this assuming the question is: "Who needs it on their phone." It's the "on their phone" part that matters. It's like...Who needs a can opener? Most people. Who needs a can opener on their phone? Not many people. The bigger problem being the can opener wouldn't be as good as the standard tool & the price of the phone would increase. If I wanted/needed a thermal camera I would prefer to buy a dedicated device w/ high performance sensors.

  • Japanese style lean to shed update
  • As someone who's naturally anal retentive I would say repeated DIY projects have convinced me minor deviations are usually unimportant given everyone, even the honest asshole, seems unable to spot them w/o my assistance. Even then it's 50/50 whether they think they're obvious.

    Long story long.. Your shed looks great, it's simple yet has some interesting details, & I'm sure it'll stand for many years to come!

  • When you are on a videocall do you also keep looking at your own thumbnail video?
  • I combat this habit by placing a window over the top of whatever app I'm using for the video call so my eyes stay on the camera. That strategy is foiled the moment screen sharing becomes required, but more often than not I know exactly what they're talking about. As I've never been on the receiving end of this strategy who knows if it makes me look better or like a weirdo..

  • Maker uses Raspberry Pi and AI to block noisy neighbor's music by hacking nearby Bluetooth speakers
  • This has been my experience too. A random party w/ friends that rages until the next morning after 2 months of silence? Sorry, didn't mean to be that loud. We'll keep it down next time, let you know in advance, & even extend an invite. An every 3rd day blasting of music at whatever hour? Fuck you, I pay rent, I don't care if it bothers you.

  • Cocaine still Colombia drug gangs' top export despite fentanyl's ascendancy
  • At that level buyers & sellers are likely drug agnostic. They buy whatever sells & sell whatever is being bought. Profit margins are likely what's driving the transition. However, & somewhat to your point, why not both?

  • 3D printed a featherboard
  • I look at it differently. I make 1 coffee table that does everything I want/need, actually like the way it looks, & break even, albeit mentally. Same, but different, I guess.

  • Not Google bad. Google app bad. Expanding the statement from a specific app to an entire company is unnecessary & waters down the statement to an ideal. Ideals are fine & all, but they're based on opinions rather than facts. There's no reason to make the transition in this case.

  • EU warns Musk that X spreading ‘illegal content’ after Hamas attacks on Israel
  • That has nothing to do w/ the topic of operating a business in the EU. Essentially, you're suggesting that people should be educated to avoid devious behavior rather than holding companies accountable to existing laws. Sure, education could make existing laws unnecessary, but that's not really the question. You either operate a business lawfully or you don't. Society is irrelevant in that conversation.

  • EU warns Musk that X spreading ‘illegal content’ after Hamas attacks on Israel
  • Sound argument, & ultimately I agree, but doing nothing isn't, & will never be, the answer. However, in this case, there is a very clear arbiter. It's the EU. That's just how it is, right now, for operating a company in their region.

  • EU warns Musk that X spreading ‘illegal content’ after Hamas attacks on Israel
  • Sure, common & logical belief, but not how major corporations are allowed to operate under various forms of regulatory bodies across the globe. You may have an opinion, but your opinion holds 0 value. Welcome to the actual world of global commerce. Glad to meet you!
