“Some kind of infrasound waves”

Haven’t read the article yet so please excuse my ignorance, but wouldn’t driving the pillars for the foundation into the sediment produce infrasound? And once the turbine is running, it’s hard to imagine such a large device to not cause any kind of sub 20Hz vibrations. After all, you can usually hear and sometimes feel them when standing close by the mills on land. (Edit: or, you’re really only hearing the ripples propagating along the infrasound wave, or “woosh”, of the blades passing the tower. The time^-1 between two “whoosh”-es being the frequency of this particular infrasound wave.)

Though, whether the infrasound is loud enough to be a problem is questionable.

One could see it as a bad thing as the AI is lying on two occasions, and that the letter was sent in bad faith (laziness, automated ads, perhaps even passing off others’ content as your own/wording).

In extension, or rather because of the two first points, one could call this a “scam for Tim’s time”.

The scam in OPs post might just be worse than regular scams, not because it is dangerous, but because it makes us lose trust in others. How hard would it be if you actually happened to be a Nigerian prince who wants to share his wealth? Well, now smaller developers can finally find out!

I had quite some beef with the tethered caps in the beginning when they didn’t latch properly, but have since gotten used to them. That said:

• Cap on top -> Funny hat for nose!
• Cap on bottom -> Beard gets to take a moist nap.
• Cap on sides -> Mustache also gets to take a sip!

Obviously not much of a problem. I’d need to clean my facial hair either way if eating ice cream or other messy foods, but cap rotation might not be effective if your “face” sticks out 1-2cm from your mouth.

One could also attempt to rotate the cap in a way to achieve quantum tunneling, but I don’t feel that I’ve achieved that level of “tethered cap proficiency” yet.

When was this written, in the 1980’s?

Yup, our everybody’s dear Ursula. I realize that Europe has many institutes and multiple unions, but I feel that the EU best represents Europe as a whole. And, of the multiple bodies the EU is made of, the European Commission often lays face to news and is said to hold the most “power”.

Yes, the USA is a master of making itself seem much more powerful and important than it really is, and what do news outlets love more than painting the devil onto the walls? Denmark living in the USA’s pocket doesn’t help much either.

At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if more Europeans know the presidents of China, Russia, and the USA than know the name of our own European prime minister, which would be pretty sad if actually true.

Of course it’s important to know what other countries are up to, and the EU is currently reliant on the USA for conflict handling (please make a joint European army), but unless you plan to intervene then I see no reason to fanatically follow their politics. Just tell me whether we’ll have to deal with some ancient inept dude, or another ancient inept dude who has managed to weaponize incompetence.

Welcome to my rock, i guess.

I’m vaguely aware that the USA is gearing up for another political tragedy, but who, living outside of the USA, actually follows that stuff? Can’t influence the outcome much either way if you can’t vote, except perhaps by spreading propaganda.

Could be worse, could be XBox. shudders

You can fix that by setting “User Settings->APP SETTINGS->Chat->Automatically convert emoticons in your messages to emoji” to “OFF”

You can still make emojis with “:smile:”, but why would you? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
