Just got awakened by my phone due to a severe thunderstorm warning. We got high winds and heavy rain right now. Lots of lightening. Living in the middle of a forest can be interesting at times.
Ahh, the auto generator just kicked on.

The technology, which I didn't get to--my bad it was 1:30am, has to do with being awakened by my phone sending me an alert to the possibility of 90mph winds along with possible flooding due to very heavy rains.

It might not seem like much to you, but when you live in a very rural area in the middle of a forest, we don't get the niceties of more urban folks. Ignoring the years I spent as a medic and fire fighter in this area and getting my pager pinged for every weather watch from the county dispatch, (information the general populous doesn't get), This is a new thing for us. Now, if only cell service wasn't so poor here even more people could get such warnings.

And my automatic backup generator is still running and powering my house. A bit of tech kit you probably don't need, but I do. So my lights are on, the air conditioning is working and so is my electric kettle to make tea. It might be all day or longer before the co-op can restore power.

Those auto generators are lifesavers in rural areas! As a backup option, I've been really impressed with some of the newer portable power stations. You can compare options on gearscouts.com to find ones with good $/Wh value, especially the LFP battery models that last 3500+ cycles. They're silent and can run indoors unlike gas generators.

If AI gave you an accurate correct answer 99% of the time would you use it to find the answer to questions quickly? I would. I absolutely would, the natural language search of ai feels amazing for finding the answer to a question you have. The current problem is that its not accurate and not correct at a high enough percentage. As soon as that reaches a certain point we're cooked and AI becomes undeniable.

You don’t understand. The tracking and spying is the entire point of the maneuver. The ‘children are accessing porn’ thing is just a Trojan horse to justify the spying. I understand what are you saying, I simply don't consider to check if a law is applied as a Trojan horse in itself. I would agree if the EU had said to these sites "give us all the the access log, a list of your subscriber, every data you gather and a list of every IP it ever connected to your site", and even this way does not imply that with only the IP you could know who the user is without even asking the telecom company for help. So, is it a Trojan horse ? Maybe, it heavily depend on how the EU want to do it. If they just ask "show me how you try to avoid that a minor access your material", which normally is the fist step, I don't see how it could be a Trojan horse. It could become, I agree on that. As you pointed out, it’s already illegal for them to access it, and parents are legally required to prevent their children from accessing it. No, parents are not legally required to prevent it. The seller (or provider) is legally required. It is a subtle but important difference. But you don’t lock down the entire population, or institute pre-crime surveillance policies, just because some parents are not going to follow the law. True. You simply impose laws that make mandatories for the provider to check if he can sell/serve something to someone. I mean asking that the cashier of mall check if I am an adult when I buy a bottle of wine is no different than asking to Pornhub to check if the viewer is an adult. I agree that in one case is really simple and in the other is really hard (and it is becoming harder by the day). You then charge the guilty parents after the offense. Ok, it would work, but then how do you caught the offendind parents if not checking what everyone do ? Is it not simpler to try to prevent it instead ?

If you want a narrative, look at all the full-price $250k Roadster pre-orders they've been holding onto for like 8 years now with zero signs of production and complete silence for the last...5 years?
