I really hope AI continues to have noticable failures. I have my doubts, but one can hope.

It very strongly depends on how you’re using the word cult.

How about we just don’t execute people, even if we know they did it. Life in prison sucks harder.

We got constitutional carry in Ohio. Just practice shooting the locks off.

I think there’s a difference between experiencing objectification and being objectified but not knowing.

Most people have zero understanding of how programs work. I have slightly more understanding than the average person and I didn’t catch that a crash log would nearly always be a text file.

Well, duh?

It’s slightly more expensive, and most developers are trying to build the cheapest thing they can sell. A good number of places have put in noise separation into their building code though, so depending on where you live any new place will be dead quiet.

In a wood-frame building, for example, you increase the thickness of the unit-to-unit walls by a few inches and leave a small air-gap between two layers of insulation. The hard-soft-air-soft-hard boundary makes for a very difficult path for sound to travel through. You have to purpose-build the walls if you want maximum noise isolation, because the studs have to be staggered so they don’t bridge the gap and transmit the sound through your defenses.

Ah, a housing cooperative is where everyone who lives on the property has an ownership stake in the property. There’s a bunch of different ways to organize it, but that’s the general idea. You don’t have a landlord so much a neighbors that you make decisions with when something needs to get done that will impact multiple owners. Anything that only impacts your own space is totally your call.

They’re genuinely amazing, especially when you learn how they’re built. Little changes to wall design make a crazy big difference.

Do you understand the concept of a housing cooperative?

People are down voting you but I’ve had the same experience. The apartments I’ve lived in were very quiet. The suburban home I live in now is within earshot of lawn care daily. I literally never leave my land, when I say daily I actually do man daily.

Noise separation is pretty easy to design into a building. Air separation is possible but would require design that no one bothers with, as far as I know.

Modem building codes usually have noise separation requirements.

You have to remember that people who advocate for apartments usually aren’t trying to make everyone live there, they’re just trying to make apartments/condos an option for who those who want them. In much of the US and Canada it’s illegal to build medium and high density housing, for essentially no reason beyond aesthetics and racism.

The same is also true for the houses. That argument is a wash.

Just launch lots of tiny bits of processed earth at them super fast. More propellant efficient and you don’t have to worry that they might have packed a parachute.

Regardless, looks like there’s a plan to get everybody off the stuff by 2030.

I thought that you can still sell new props that need leaded fuel, is that not the case?

We really need to get rid of that.

SAME HERE BUDDY. AT MOST I’LL USE A LITTLE BAR SOAP OCCASIONALLY, BUT USUALLY ONLY ONCE A WEEK OR SO, AND EVEN THEN I USE IT SPARINGLY.
