There is no reason it needs an always on connection for this. Even if there was a camera in the bowl taking pictures of poo (which raises so many privacy questions), the device could easily save hundreds of HD+ quality picture (assuming a toilet camera had that resolution) and send them next time connection is secure.

Always online functionality only makes sense when the function itself is an online task such as a video call or looking up information not saved locally.

Having an always online connection for a toilet suggest it’s gathering much more information passively from your home, using voice activated as a cover to always be listening and thus relaying what it records to server/data center to be filtered through for marketable or exploitable data.

I don’t even want kids!

Me wondering if there are clear symptoms of there or being power bottom or if I’m just utterly oblivious to the signs and assume they are just brats.

It’s not simping if telling people to stay out of there is the digital equivalent of telling people to stay out of number 4 reactor hall at Chernobyl.

Haven’t been on Lemmy in like a week, what happened?

They will only come back with vengeance.

I thought they got rid of it because all the tainted lettuce getting people sick?

I feel this is not a fair assessment.

2 people did die, but not because of the balloons.

2 people were out on the lake and their boat sank, the balloons hampered the rescue efforts.

Before anyone gets any ideas that the balloons crushed someone or suffocated them.

I went 7900XTX instead of a 40XX Nvidia GPU and couldn’t have been happier. Not the cheapest thing on the market but yet to encounter something it can’t run to my standards.

Should have used ALF. He liked cats because they were delicious.

Godzilla franchise (in japan) has usually gone for low budget practical effects.

Also 90s Godzilla was resigned to appear more catlike!

Unrelenting anger can counter attack the heart and nullify it /s

Brain smooth, stress just slide right off.

War? I thought we were going to raw!

I don’t see how your post refutes his? Russia is big, but it’s sparsely populated, especially anywhere east of Moscow until you get to Vladivostok. Countries other than Russia in their grid equally if not more so sparsely populated. Top that with disparities in Quality of Life between the two grids, and you find the larger one using less power because it’s services less clients who use less electricity.

Accounting for mining, construction, operation, decommission and disposal, nuclear has less emission that Solar.

The political problems are entirely artificial, fabricated by the fossil fuel competitors and have been soundly disproven.

Nuclear waste is no where near the problem people assume it is. A single plant doesn’t produce more than it can store onsite during it’s entire operation and 100% of all the waste can actually be recycled and ran through newer generation breeder reactors to ‘burn’ the radioactivity and render the resulting ‘waste’ safe as background radiation within a decade or so in a cooling pool. The only reason this isn’t already common practice is nuclear fuel is so abundant it’s not as profitable to do this, It’d be the equivalent of a coal power plant halting using coal for a few weeks so they could shovel in trash from a nearby landfill until it was empty. Less overall power output for less profit.

Enormously long when compared to those tiny hands.

People listing Iron Maiden songs missing the entire point.

Bowsette may not be Nintendo canon, but it sure as hell is fan canon.

Yeah it was billed as some Tom Cruise slock like it was some video game movie. Heavy on the cgi but pretty good far as near future sci-fi goes especially with time travel.
