I dig this variant!

What's even worse is when on presenting the check the waitress tells you 18% tip already included.

I've seen it normalized for parties of 6 or greater...but not for any party size until recently.

I find that completely wild. If that's the case it should be posted and announced prior to anything taking place.

Incidentally it was the worst service I had ever gotten in a very long time, presumably because it didn't matter at all

It was actually removed though. But they left the pole up and someone saw an opportunity to place the flag.

I moved 3 pallets of 60lb bags 4 days ago. You have to move heavy stuff from time to time. In these exact moments you learn how to plan for the next time to avoid moving things very far.

Normal construction just isn't that straining to be wearing a exoskeleton.

Even extreamly heavy stuff like countertops, there's purpose built stuff to move these things the last 100 feet already.

In construction, if you know a heavy thing needs moved you procure the means to move it long before expecting someone to show up with a exoskeleton.

I'm not saying it's not cool. I just don't see a major efficiency gain. And, I don't see why anyone would want to rely on a exoskeleton to perform their daily job.

Meh, and yet anyone can run a relay or onion service in a few clicks.

It's the best tool regular people have for privacy without a doubt.

>The regular person using it doesn't get as much of the privacy benefits, but the charade is making it seem like they do.

Just false.

If your model is simply to avoid corporate surveillance and tracking its a fantastic defense.

If your trying to go up against nation states, it never claimed to protect you from that.

>None of that material handling is cheap.

None of it is handled directly by humans either. Exo skeletons would be sweet, I just think in reality construction is already highly optimized for regular strength humans. Would be very slim productivity gains.

I was just thinking trades wouldn't benifit that much. We have trucks and cranes and stuff.

What construction material weighs 100kg? All the stuff is made to be installed by a guy or two. Big stuff is hoisted with cranes, heavy concrete is pumped. A sheet of plywood is carried by one man, a cement block gets plopped 2 feet from where it needs installed one by one, doors and windows are a one man show.

In reality you can't get past a 2^256 limit of dev/urandom cspring without introducing your own random number generator which is possible.

But yeah its easy math, lets say the pair is 1,000,000. Thats 1,000,000! possible combinations. You could stack 1,000,000 PB drives across the universe and not be able to store all the unique combinations.

Seems pretty un loseable to me as well

Is there any understanding of how it's even 50b? Makes no sense to me.

What's the best morse code software out there?

The builders are building, if you can find what they build is another thing.

Most are perfectly fine building stuff without being found out. That's not the fun part of why people build things.

Although there is satisfaction in knowing something you built getting used.

It's not the path of least resistance to get the cameras banned. It's been a highly resistant path and that's what most people want.

Flock took the path of least resistance setting them up often skirting any normal discussion that should have taken place with the community before they were installed.
