Some appliances are louder than others. Curious to hear what appliances you can hear
I’m able to hear the AC hum from motors and any inductive heating elements.
When it’s completely silent in the room, I can hear the transformer in my phone charger make a variable squealing sound

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Say I have US$10,000. What's the best use of that money if my goal is to stop climate change?

Many modern cars will stop working and there will be a huge demand for cars from the 90s, due to the anti-theft authentication in the key not working.
In America, not being able to drive is basically a death sentence. Especially for the few people living rurally with no fixed internet or phone line to be able to call for help.
The way we socialise has changed to the point where it’s normal to talk to people over text chat. This leaves a footprint that talking face to face with someone does not.
In addition to other privacy concerns, I don’t want things I say that I would’ve gotten away with had I spoken it to my friends in real life, to come back and haunt me, either by a platform having a massive data breach, or it being used as evidence in a legal case against me.
On that last point, I’m not using chat services to organise crime, but taken out of context, any message I send can paint a picture that I’m an awful person and change some jury’s opinion of me. This isn’t something I want to think about before sharing a dank meme to a friend on discord.
Until we get AI that mimics the layers

Ask Lemmy•Is Character.ai (and similar services) an example of massive intellectual property infringement?
2·1 年前I believe there is still a major court case underway to decide if AI trained on copyrighted data makes it’s derivative works copyrighted too.
It’s an important court battle because it will set a precedent for every other AI related case for all the other AI companies

Ask Lemmy•If the logic of copyright/trademark/IP law applied to everything, what's the most peculiar possible implication you can think of for it?

No Stupid Questions•Seriously, what the f*** is keeping Donald Trump in this presidential race?

Fuck Cars•17% of the US's Infrastructure & Jobs Act goes to transit. 67% goes to conventional highway programsEnglish

People don’t walk that closely together
People don’t bike that closely together
Only a double decker bus could fit that many people without cramming people in like sardines
Moving cars should obey a safe following distance, so unless traffic is gridlocked, they shouldn’t be that close either

No Stupid Questions•Photographers Push Back on Facebook's 'Made with AI' Labels Triggered by Adobe Metadata. Do you agree “‘AI was used in this image’ is completely different than ‘Made with AI’”?
25·1 年前Can’t wait for people to deliberately add the metadata to their image as a meme, such that a legit photograph without any AI used gets the unremovable made with ai tag

212·1 年前Sure But you could also achieve a similar effect in-camera by zooming in or moving closer to the subject






Disclaimer: I’m not American so will never understand your culture towards politics as well.
I don’t think it’s fair to point at every bad thing Trump has done so far and say that’s the fault of your MIL for voting for Trump. The way I see it as a non-American, Trump did say he was going to be a racist xenophobic piece of shit on his election campaign, but the media heavily downplayed this, and Trump still tricked and lied to everyone. Politics is weird like that: you can theoretically campaign on one thing but then throw everything out and do the opposite once you get elected.
Hating Kamala and Biden is a fair opinion to hold as well. I consider a vote for them as picking the lesser of the 2 evils, rather than voting on what’s best for America, because both parties seemed awful to me (a non-American).
I think it’s important that you try to at least understand and empathise with why your MIL voted Trump in the first place. You were very light on those details in your post, which I suspect is because you’re very quick to judge someone based on who they vote for.
Maybe she really hated one policy from the democrats so voted for Trump? Maybe she bought all the lies Trump told during his campaign and regrets her vote strongly? Maybe she’s a single-issue person who voted for Trump because of one policy and ignored everything else?
