People default to trusting other people

I like the idea of an objectionable content filter that's personalized like a spam filter. People don't always agree on what spam is, and they can change their minds at any time.

Hills tho

You're not going to want a flywheel in a car that's going to make any turns

Thanks for the edit :)

Any search-ad revenue Google gets is a side-effect of users going to Google for good quality search results. Worse results would lead to fewer users, fewer ads sold, less revenue.

I did the Noogler training too. What you said might have been true before "google it" became the verb people use for "search".

You could sit the whole thing in front of a normal desk fan until you can get a usb one, if everything else seems functional.

I don't have any bitcoin, but I would pay extra to have a drone wake up my neighbor's dog every time I buy a book.

How do you feel about crime?

My rescue dog was having trouble learning until I cooked her an egg for the first time. It's pretty hard to grow a brain out of whatever garbage she was finding to eat.

Literally the same strategy that's used to push overpriced "healthy", "natural" human food.

Would you describe yourself as a particularly healthy person?

They live <20 years

Crazy thing about nutrition, eating better means living longer :)

To be fair, my coworkers and I cyberbully each other all the time

Same with all the plausible deniability with passwords etc, the judge can simple not believe you and put you in jail until you remember the password (even if you do not remember it).

In America, you can be compelled to surrender something you have, but not something you know.

So the jail you're waiting in while you remember you password is probably in Guantanamo Bay.

Google is an advertising company.

This is beautiful. Well done.

Are there any other text editors that have interpolated variable references?

The closest I can think of are Frescobaldi's snippets[1], vim's `!read`, or spreadsheets. Maybe light table [2]? I haven't seen anything exactly like what you've made

Is this helpful? There is a folder called "repository" in this torrent.

Technically true, but try building a bomb from one of those tutorials

There are some other outdoor keypad options - tv remotes, security gates, garage door openers, etc.

The case doesn't need to be special for a first pass. We just need enough of a fucking owl to decide what to do next.

Edit: my plan was to find a configuration of hardware that does what we want to do first. Next would be trying the new platform from a desk and, if that goes well, designing a case for the parts we selected. You can't really make a custom case without knowing what's going inside :)

Okay, we'll need an rtl-sdr, a raspberry pi, a battery, a keypad, and a screen. We can 3d print a case, or put it in a project box. Both can be ruggedized later.

I found this for the keypad and screen: https://wiki.dfrobot.com/I_O_Expansion_HAT_for_Pi_zero_V1_0_...

There are separate options for keypad and screen, e.g eink and a number pad, but for a first pass this might be enough.

An rtl-sdr won't plug directly into a pi zero w, so we'll need an internal adapter. I know that HATs stack, so if there isn't a hard requirement for an rtl-sdr, we could find an sdr hat to put between the pi and the keypad.

Have you tried a hackrf portapack? It's an order of magnitude more expensive than a pi zero and an rtl-sdr, but it might be close to what you want.

The two big dangerous things to withdraw from are alcohol and benzodiazepines. Opiates withdrawal won't kill you (but you'll want it to)

if you only care about Linux forever.

You caught me, and you're right: sh (not bash) is the portable option.

For what it's worth, I don't think it's weird that you don't drink alcohol.

'Slinging cat' is slang for selling methcathinone. Interestingly, this doesn't change the meaning of your first sentence.

Despite remaining in zsh while in a terminal, I still find myself writing only bash scripts when a script it needed.

I do this too. I think it's good practice; zsh is amazing as an interactive shell, but bash is everywhere.

I liked the way you framed drug use as temporary happiness loans. That's very insightful.

Now, I'm aware that this is quite complex, but still I wonder how many people there are out there who can self-control themself and diligently keep their debt in order.

The analogy breaks down a bit here for me.

Before I had a cat, I couldn't understand how people could pay so much for veterinary bills. After I got a cat, I could see myself spending more on her than I would spend on myself. Like, what's the point of having money if not to make my cat happy? My relationship to money itself changed. Self-control isn't a factor.

I'm stretching this analogy, but I wonder how many drug users with their happiness debts in balance have really just reframed their happiness finances around their addiction.

Addiction controls what you want, regardless of whether you like the thing you are addicted to. That's what makes it hard to beat by just white-knuckling it; whatever strength or will you have gets redirected against you.
