Australia bans social media for under 16s
  • Yeah I agree with you on this. It'll protect them from the being de-clothed using AI as well. I understand wanting to share moments with your family because kids grow up fast but sharing it with these companies as an intermediary is not a good idea. Sadly I don't have a solution for them aside from setting up a decentralized social network like Pixelfed or Frendica but that requires skill and patience.

    Collapse of Earth's main ocean water circulation system is already happening
  • Ok since you have a problem with the phrase "I think" then I'll add a source.

    Here they say that Carbon-14 is commonly used for carbon dating but it's reliable for organic matter up to 60,000 years since it's half-life is 5,700 years. The rest of my post is questioning how accurate our knowledge is for older dates. Millions or tens of millions of years ago. How do we know the rate of weather change from millions of years ago just from fossils? I assume that the further back we go in time the more inaccurate we are on how the climate change and we can only know about the general climate from the plants and animals we find.

    Also why didn't you question OP's source of data? They also made similar claims about what we know about what we know about climate change but no one questions their sources.

  • Collapse of Earth's main ocean water circulation system is already happening
  • I think there are a lot of errors in the models. Tree rings can only go back so far because most of the early trees are now coal. And trees, while they do live for a long time, don't live forever. Fossilization is rare and I don't know if we can get weather data from fossilized tree rings. Carbon dating is useful for organic matter up to 60,000 years ago. The other methods used to determine what the atmosphere was in the past include studying ice samples from Antarctica but that's only good for the time Antarctica froze till now, it was tropical at some point. Since most scientist think complex life has been around for 500 million years I don't think we can really say we know exactly what the climate was like and how it changed anywhere past a certain time period.

  • Collapse of Earth's main ocean water circulation system is already happening
  • How do you know that the climate is changing at a pace never before seen? Were you there to see it? There have been many mass extinctions in Earth's history. It'll be fine.

  • So I got permabanned from one subreddit for posting a comment in another subreddit
  • I've noticed that a lot of people online are becoming very unhinged. They are looking for fights, placing people on their enemies list if they have the wrong opinion, and just stay online arguing for hours. I don't know if these are real people, bots from nation states, people arguing with bots, or bots arguing with bots.

    Well now this is trashy. I got permabanned from r/interstingasfuck for posting a comment in r/MensRights that was an attempt to correct some misinformation. I've never made a post in either subreddit and that was the only comment I've ever made in the MensRights subreddit. But r/interstingasfuck's bot decided to permaban me even though I've not broken any rules.

    The ban

    The single comment I've ever made on r/MensRights

    Also I tried to make a post on r/MensRights (would have been my first post there) on me getting banned for making a comment and the mods there blocked it. You would think they'd love the chance to show they are victims of discrimination and censorship.

    Man Reddit is trash.

    Virus detected in latest HumbleBundle

    I tried posting this on Reddit but the mods have to approve it and haven't yet. I'll warn you guys.

    I just downloaded the HumbleBundle Programming MEGA Bundle 2024 by Packt via torrent and stored it in my NAS. That system ran a virus check and found the file pragmaticmicroserviceswithcandazure.zip had a virus Win.Packed.Pwsx-10034067-0 in it. Is this common on HumbleBundle? I would expect something like this on a cybersecurity bundle for studying viruses but not on one about microservices. This zip file is for the book Pragmatic Microservices with C# and Azure.

    Perfect Dark Controls

    Ok so how the hell am I supposed to play this game with a regular Switch controller? After decades of using dual analog sticks and getting accustomed to a certain layout I am lost on how to navigate my favorite shooter. Why can't I map look and turn to the right joystick and move and strafe to the left? Why Nintendo?! Am I forced to pay $50 for the N64 controller?

    I should just continue to emulate on the Steam Deck. At least I can control it.

    How do you test visual programing languages?

    So how do you guys test visual programming languages? These languages include Labview, Simulink, Snaplogic, Slang, etc. I ask because I'm working on improving the testing suite we use at my job for Snaplogic. The way we currently lest is we have a suite of pipelines that have certain snaps and we just run those pipelines and look for errors in a testing environment every release.

    What I'm really trying to figure out is how to run Functional Tests (unit, integration, system) and Non-Functional Tests (security, performance). In a language such as Python this can be straight forward but in a visual language or a service offered by another company then it is a bit more difficult.

    I am thinking of creating a custom test suite using the modules used in our pipelines and using Python to generate JSON and SQL data. Does anyone do something similar?

    Beware of excessive holds at Love's Travel Stops

    So I had to travel across Ohio yesterday to pick someone up unexpectedly. The person I had to pick up was waiting at one of those Love's gas stations and I need to put some gas in the car to have enough to return home. I have a sedan and put in about $30 worth. I check my credit card online to plan how much I need to set aside to pay off my credit cards and they placed a $175 hold for that $30 purchase of fuel. This post is to warn everyone else about these holds. There is a class action lawsuit on this as well.
