The article has been updated before the publication of this post to say that it's not actively developed anymore and had been inactive for months.

A sharp blade sounds like a terrible idea: the surface of the sensor needs to be optically flat, the sensor needs to SEE the surface it's used on... I wouldn't trust myself not to scratch it with a sharp object.

And the sensor I talked about?

I have two answers to give you.

  • Flamanville is a new generation of reactor that we are testing out after regretfully stopping the large-scale production of reactors in France. Therefore the welding sector had been lacking work for 20 years, many retiring. The same issue goes for many other highly-specialized skills in the field. Americans had to be brought in to fill in for these positions, at high cost. So the left hadn't been corrupted by Russia into being against nuclear power in the first place, Flamanville would like gone about as well as developing a fundamentally different design can. I will grant you, however, that this isn't the design I would have liked to see deployed: France used to be developing the Phoénix and SuperPhénix fast neutron reactors until protesters made them stop. These kinds of reactors are cleaner, more fuel-efficient (by several orders of magnitude!), some variants can even consume previous nuclear waste, although I don't think these two French designs could. These would have been wonderful to have access to. Russia and China have already developed these designs, in large parts with our researchers when they lost their jobs, and we'll eventually just buy them from them again. Nice plan.

  • What would you replace these with? Batteries? Once again? Coal? Renewables? How would you deal when, all over Europe, every winter, there are weeks on end with next to no wind nor sun? Should we create new mountain ranges and rivers to store more energy hydraulically? Shift demand? Nuclear is the worst system except for all the others.

They could do:

  • Keep current rate of random checks
  • Whenever an infringing product is detected, ban exporter
  • That way, from then on, all automated checks trash that exporter. (I'm thinking integration with the postal service)

Hopefully it'll be a pain in their arse to some extent

Nah I'm talking about temu's sellers. Sure it would be a game of chicken but it's a start

[-] FurryMemesAccount 1 points 1 week ago

I assume they'd still have to register a new account with temu and lose their reviews? Being diligent about that seems already like a good start, at first glance...

I feel like they also removed story creation from free users very recently

Finally some fascist setbacks.

If only justice wasn't as laxist as she criticizes it to be and hadn't made her prison sentence serviceable with a GPS tracker...

Nevermind, she'll surely be outraged by it anyway.

It wasn't a computing power issue: simply plugging a hat into the same exact pi B2 fixed the issue.

I've tried to Google for an article about this but I didn't get lucky. Essentially it was something about how the jack output was driven using pwm that was causing hissing and crackling if I remember right.

And I concur that it's a good everything streamer if you use the HDMI output or a hat with an audiophile-grade audio output.

Edit: the latest pis might still have a better-driven jack output but I still won't trust it unless I test it thoroughly.

Edit: I was using the B2 and not the 2B but this is the issue I had: https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/38023/3-5-mm-jack-starts-to-hiss-after-sound-is-played

I've tried it but the audio quality was absolutely atrocious on the first pi generations at least. I got a hat from a third party for it.
