Oh I know it takes a lot of work, but that's why I have a hard time understanding where the profit will come from. And why couldn't they just scrape the current weather along with the current forecast to share? Sure it may not be updated with the latest and greatest info we've come to expect, but it wasn't that long ago that the forecast was obtained daily in the paper. I know I sure as hell won't be paying for it (put aside from the fact I'm Canadian (for now...)), I'd sooner get an anemometer and start taking my own readings.
I still don't see how they plan to privatize weather forecasting. All it takes is one or two people from each city to scrape the data and upload it to a free alternative site. It's not like health care where each person needs individualized care, it's more like streaming services and we're all seeing how that's going. Never thought the future would involve pirating weather forecasts...
I don't know if I would call it lying per-se, but yes I have seen instances of AI's being told not to use a specific tool and them using them anyways, Neuro-sama comes to mind. I think in those cases it is mostly the front end agreeing not to lie (as that is what it determines the operator would want to hear) but having no means to actually control the other functions going on.
Nah, this is closer to hiring a gardener for your lawn that YOU'RE in the process of illegally paving over. There's no external 3rd party forcing the closure of the Department of Education, it's all Trump's actions.
Amphenol connectors. Used a ton in industry, military and aerospace. They are actually really nice when you get down to it, but you need expensive tools and the connectors themselves are usually quite expensive. I once had a client ask for a specific 6 pin one, only about the size of my thumb, it was $800.
Yup, heard about it a week or two ago. Found it installed on my Samsung phone, it never asked for permissions or gave any info that it was added to my phone.
It's like he's forgotten that trade consists of both money AND goods. We're not just passing money back and forth while secretly keeping some of the USA's cut. Like even kids can understand this. And yes it's even more infuriating since we've been good to the USA, I'm sure many countries around the world would love a neighbour like Canada.
Hi, not gay but bi and I spend a lot of time in LGBTQ spaces. I personally have not heard of this meaning anything specific. Chances are that it's just a quirky / goofy expression that they like. I have a few friends who are not gay where every photo has a similar expression, it's just something some people do I guess 🤷
This was never about the border or drugs but Trump said jump and Canada asked How high?
This, sadly. I do not think a single thing Canada will do will have Trump change his tune. He has been told Canada has been screwing the US for whatever reason, and now he wants revenge like all the other actions he has taken this term so far. Still, I think we need to at least try, that way the more sane Americans (and the rest of the world) will hopefully realize that attempts were made by Canada, programs were put into place at the US's request, and all ignored by Trump.
...Apple was already doing it because both Biden and Trump were on the same course when it comes to putting tariffs on China. Tariffs work for this purpose...
Btw, have you really reviewed all Apple public financial statements? I didn’t so I don’t want to claim something doesn’t exist there.
Nope, I never claimed anything of the sort of course, I am basing all of the understandings I have off the research I can do on publicly avalible stats and statements. I'm just replying to your "someone make a counterpoint" comment like you asked. Despite saying you haven't reviewed Apples financials and that you don't want to claim something that doesn't exist, you seem very set on the fact that tarrifs were a major factor. I agree that Apple would never state the reason, they are a private company and are allowed to do so, I'd probably do the same.
Edit: Don't know why I said private, they are publicly traded but still have no requirement to disclose their reasonings to the general public.
Yes, of course, about half their revenue comes from outside the US from a quick search. But doesn't that reinforce my point that tarrifs were likely not the primary reason for this US investment? China is not threatening tarrifs on Apple, yet they still plan to invest there because it is in their best interest and the interests of their shareholders.
As the other guy said, I think Apple is working in it's own interests more than anything and the tarrifs were not the primary motivation. For one, Apple does not mention tarrifs or reference them in both their 2021 $430 billion investment announcement or their more recent $500 billion announcement. On top of that, at the end of last year Bloomberg reported Apple is still committing to investing more in China. Do the tarrifs play a part in the US investment? Maybe, but I think it would be foolish to say this is a sign of them being the primary motivator for them.
Has it always done this or is this a new issue? I agree with what someone else said, I think this is likely a bed leveling issue. The P1S uses pressure sensing using it's nozzle for bed leveling. If the screws holding the hotend in place aren't tight enough, it might be giving you poor readouts. This could happen after a nozzle swap if you've done one before. Same if the print head itself has a lot of play in it for some reason, it would throw off the results.
Just last week actually. I was visiting my parents and we were having dinner with the radio on. I started talking about how I was learning the piano and had most of The Scientist by Coldplay learned, and how I like the piano part in the song a lot. And as I finished talking, it came on the radio, just perfect timing. I actually thought the smart speaker somehow picked up on me saying the song name but nope, definitely was just good timing on the radio station.
How many guys does it take? Some group must have attempted this at a fur con room party or something. 2 - 4 would be too few, 5 might be where it starts to be possible but very uncomfortable. I think about the 8 - 10 person range would be the sweet spot. We need our top switch scientists researching this at once!
Yeah, there are a few options for cable covers but none that I think would be great here. Expando loom will stop cable abrasions, but probably not cat teeth. There's split loom, but that is quite rigid and I think cats could bite through it still with enough will power. There are metal cable sleeves, but these usually aren't for physical protection and are braided in the same way that makes expando loom a not great solution. I would try what someone else mentioned first and try coating the cable in a bitterant.
