@CatherineFlick No, every small decision, such as pushing the pedal at a green light and taking your receipt at the cash register is *not* a philosophical journey filled with deep thought and analysis. Sources back up my original point: The vast majority of our decisions are basic pattern-matching.

@CatherineFlick My apologies. I didn’t mean to assume that people don’t have logic, it’s just most decisions are not some kind of in-depth philosophical journey, but pattern recognition.

@CatherineFlick Its fascinating how we uncover real logic through these analyses. The LLM models now are like how most people follow heuristics, social norms, and habits to make decisions.

@alex02 And it didn't work 😂

Ah, Linux. That feeling it gives you when it doesn't try to sell you out with every keystroke.

So, Microsoft updates are failing due to small EFI partitions again.

They claim it's caused by 3rd party antivirus, but their fix is to delete Microsoft fonts from the /EFI directory...

@CattleBaron Wow. You're not serious, right? That doesn't sound like something a serious person would say.

We're talking like 15 minutes in this made-up hypothetical situation. Then you can go 4x faster than a bike.

And I'm not from the UK, Sherlock.

@CattleBaron It recharges at 20 miles per hour, which seems to be about the average distance between fast chargers in the UK. That might not be necessary, though, since most people run out of gas about 1 to 5 miles from their destination. Simply driving efficiently should be enough for that discrepancy. To sit for hours would be silly.

@formuchdeliberation EVs are green, but consumption leads to energy usage, more shocking news at 11.

I did a photo shoot for a #vegan place I go to almost every weekend, Foodhisattva in #Cleveland Heights. They rotate their menu seasonally and these dishes will be on their fall menu. Pics turned out pretty good, just like all of their #food and they had them plated up really nice. The mushroom scallops are my absolute favorite. If you're in the Cleveland area I highly recommend them.

@frank_w I've found so much more since last night ...
One of my coworkers pointed towards this (they use it with solar power) --> https://github.com/SmartEVSE/SmartEVSE-3

And, it happens that our JuiceBox40 was part of a Pwn2Own this year, I learned so much about the software just reading this well-documented article ...

@kubefred Great find! This is such a cool project.

@Bluedonkey The JuiceBox should still work, no?

@kubefred The app was always terrible for us.

They say when you die, your life flashes before your eyes. But, what if it’s just all these damn security codes?

The biggest Linux CVE of the century was published nearly 2 weeks early and would you look at that, it's not the biggest Linux CVE of the century

Lubed up the stabs on the "home" keyboard.

@Slash909uk Thanks! I found the HV EV Battery Power spikes correlate with State of Charge usage. I looked into it, something about Ohm's Law, increased current causes exponential efficiency losses. I was not smooth in pedal application at all during the drive. ABS didn't kick on, but yes the road was a little wet from early morning rain.

One of my favorite data points: The normal #driving initially had a faster ETA, which was wrecked by the traffic light. Look toward the center of the vehicle speed graph.
