Sort of like lip reading

A brain itself doesn’t feel physical pain. That requires a nervous system and pain receptors of which the brain has none. Brain surgery is done with only local anesthesia for the skin and scalp.
We also know that braindead people don’t suddenly start creating brain waves even if the body gets mechanical resparation and pulse. It’s quite literally “off”. So, I guess the creation of a dead brain won’t feel anything or start thinking about anything by itself.
The question is what inputs they give these artificial brains. It’ll think that, and that will be it’s “sensory” input. Whether that can cause some emergent brain waves that could be interpreted as emotion or other stuff is impossible to say. I doubt it.


It’s really a question of whether you have electric heating or a furnace or district heating.
It’s not common to have more than one heat exchanger for hot water if you have a furnace or district heating.
Electrical is much easier. You can just place them anywhere and they don’t cost as much to install. However, electricity is usually more expensive than district heating.


Was the classification as a hate symbol ever a problem for them?


This was necessary to do … because of what?
I’ve read that the most fires at gas stations (related to refueling) happen when somebody enters the car while fueling. I don’t know if it’s true, but it has a point.
The potential static electricity from getting into the seat and the dilution of the gas in the air at that position is a more ignitable combination than holding a lit cigarette right at the nozzle. The draft from opening the door will make different dilutions, so it’s pretty sure that it is ignitable at some point around that position.
The risk of explosion is quite low at the pump. It’s actually worse if they step away to smoke, because depending on wind there will be a position somewhere in the vicinity of the pump where the gas is easier to ignite. Firing up a lighter there could be bad.
Anyway. There’s plenty of other good reasons not to smoke at a gas station.
It’s not a reference to any particular drive. It’s just that Germans drove tanks into Poland at the start of WW2. The dual meaning of the word “tank” is the pun.
It’s from this video:
Is the ring holders poop also invisible?
Obviously it’s invisible while inside the person, but what happens if they make a little turd? Does it become visible in mid air or does it work like the clothes?
What if they make a poo poo in the middle of a street while invisible, then walk away to a different town. What happens if the ring is then taken off?
“Wash at or bellow 50°”
OK. I choose to bellow 50°

It shows the bidding zones for wholesale electricity markets. This is also why Sweden, Norway and Italy are split in several prices.
It’s not particularly interesting to anyone but those who trade electricity wholesale. I guess we can say that those with low prices have an overproduction and vice versa.
Remember the hype around brain wave synchronization through stereo headphones in the early 00s?
If these earplugs can actually get any kind of reading, it might actually work a lot better than it did back then. Knowing the current frequency of the brain waves would be really helpful in order to make the sounds resonate and synchronize the brain waves to the desired state of mind.
Potentially it can make a person feel any state of awareness between drowsy and stressed.
I would like to have that kind of control, but I also wouldn’t want anyone else to have that kind of control over anyone else’s brain frequency. Especially not in a paid product…
It’s really interesting but also very very grim.


I’m not really scared of AI becoming more intelligent. I’m more concerned about stupid people giving control to stupid AI. It’s plenty capable of fucking things up as it is provided it is given access to do so.
You’re right. Retirement is a term used as a carrot at the end of stick. You’ll never get it, or it will be stale when you finally catch it. I don’t know that many happy retired people. Sure they got off the rat wheel, but at what cost? An entire life spend on making billionaires richer. Fuck that.
Forget about retirement. Instead, I suggest focusing and actively working on making life worth living before getting too old. Demand better working conditions if work is what’s making life miserable.


The G is silent in English words starting with gn. Gnarly gnats is pronounced narly nats.
There’s not a lot of those words anyway
Gnu and gnome are exceptions only when used to describe the software. The gnu animal and the mythical gnome creature are pronounced with silent gs.


I know it’s completely off-topic, but anyway. No, I’m fine with the rake. That’s what’s makes it funny.
It’s the drawing of the skater that is too good, and that doesn’t add up with the other details being wrong. Someone who can draw a skater that good wouldn’t make the other things that wrong or even random.
The rake is drawn as doing a frontside shove-it, popped from mid-air and failing because of gravity suddenly changing in the middle of the sequence. The skater is “obviously” doing a varial heelflip instead of a frontside shove-it.
So that’s the clue to why I thought it was drawn off an actual picture. That the background is also a copy of the original only reaffirms my theory.
In hindsight I can also see that the skater is obviously Andrew Reynolds. The tuck and landing is his signature style.
Who the hell goes to his page anyway?
