You can see other people in a reflection without them being able to see you.

It is not possible to see someone else’s eyes (except from the side, so it’s only seeing their eyes in profile) in a reflection without them being able to see you too.

It’s literally not possible via reflection, as everything is equal and opposite. If light can go from their eyes to yours, it’s also possible to go the opposite direction.

This is what everyone has been saying but instead of thinking through everything clearly, you resorted to bullying.

The only way to accomplish this one-way vision is by adding something that is not reflection to the system (like a one-way window), but that’s breaking the premise under which everyone else has been commenting in good faith.

The reflection is only bidirectional if you can see the other person’s eyes.

It’s like if someone is in a bathroom stall. You could see the stall is occupied by seeing their feet stick below the wall of the stall, but they cannot necessarily see any part of you since their eyes are not where their feet are.

Same principle applies to reflections, where maybe the body part that you can see is just the top of the head, and since the person isn’t tall enough they can’t see that you can see them.

It sounds about as out of touch as their neurons.

Sucks that the idiots forcing these stupid ideas get buckets of money though.

I missed that part in the article, I should have just searched for the word flood, woops

So if the tip is sticking out for airflow, how does it handle a flash flood?

Google still controls the source, and so they have influence over the rest.

It’s like Ungoogled Chromium. Sure, it’s open source. Sure, if might have Google crap removed. Google still calls the shots on the direction of the browser.

Same still meaningfully applies to Chromium-based browsers.

As much as I would like to believe that, these politicians have more than demonstrated their intentions and modus operandi. They need to be voted out and replaced with someone who will actually try to do the right thing even if it’s not such an easy talking point come reelection time.

Yes.

A bunch of states including NC are just blocking porn to protect the children but it’s literally the laziest solution with some of the smallest impact.

Twitch, Discord, and Roblox are far more accessible and arguably more dangerous in terms of short term consequences than porn because they are primarily social interaction platforms.

I’ve never seen Rotten or Liveleaks (at first I thought you meant Rotten Tomatoes that’s how unaware I am), but they could probably use similar regulation.

It’s not even that I think porn regulation is inherently bad, but the implementation is garbage and the claim to protect the children is extremely weak.

Social content sites are dangerous because of the opportunity for predators to easily encounter minors (especially age restriction breaking ones under 13), and violent content sites are, well, violent? They should be a higher priority but they evidently aren’t.

I mean I honestly think if they really wanted to “protect the children” they’d actually make COPPA enforcement a lot more strict (and also add in under 18 limitations), though I suspect that would be significantly harder.

There are a lot of places where you can get exposure to “bad” stuff as a child that are arguably more dangerous long term.

Well in this case the companies that should be regulated are the Internet companies in SK. 😂 Good counterpoint (not /s)

Where is the linked article? The only link I’m seeing in the post is to the homepage. Not sure if my mobile client is not showing me something.

There’s only one company I’ve found that makes headphone shapes that don’t hurt my ears and they stopped making wired variants years ago. Last time I got an actually authentic pair was ~2017.

The void they left behind got flooded by knockoff junk that isn’t worth buying (bought 2 pairs in 2018 trying to find a replacement, they were tinny garbage).

If I could find a wired version that sounded good for under $50 I’d get them immediately so I can stop dealing with Bluetooth connection issues when I’m on my computer.

Counter-suggestion (and this applies to everyone with an Android regardless of gender dating anyone else regardless of gender), do use your Android phone in front of your date because that weeds out psychos who would reject you over not owning their preferred product.

I don’t have a headphone jack.

Even if I had one, I haven’t been able to buy wired headphones that aren’t crap quality that don’t hurt my ears. Last time I bought wired headphones (more accurately earbuds) they were tinny knock off garbage being sold on Amazon as a legitimate product, and that was years ago.

If it works it’s likely not supported officially by any carrier (this probably also applies to Canada and possibly Mexico), but it’s at least not for sale in the US. Not sure if it’s sold to all of Europe or just the EU/EEZ however.

I feel like you just made something up so you don’t have to like EVs.

1. The fact that this is your takeaway from my messages (in addition to your general tone) just shows you are trying to push a self-righteous agenda without properly identifying who are your allies and opponents. I abhor ICEs and would have bought an EV by now if not for the scummy companies producing them, and the fact that I basically do not drive anymore so switching my relatively unused car out for any replacement vehicle does not make sense. I’d sooner just sell the car and wash my hands of them entirely.

What a weird outlook you have.

2. Not likely subscription services and the car manufacturers tracking me is not “weird” it’s well justified. I don’t like my insurance company tracking me either which is why I heavily restrict the permissions their app has (and use a second phone for it). ICE and EV manufacturers have immense overlap and I’ve yet to hear of one that actually respects their customers and doesn’t turn their products into drivable spyware.

I don’t even have a way to rebut it.

3. Perhaps you should quit the contrarian behavior since you’re not putting in the effort to be one. You’ve already demonstrated you aren’t putting in the effort to read my messages by openly misidentifying me as an EV hater.

Subscriptions to use any part of my car and even more tracking than my ICE car are part of the product, and that sucks. I beg to differ on me being wrong, on those two counts specifically.

No matter what the stability, reliability, and safety are, the two things I mentioned are each sufficient grounds to not buy pretty much any of the modern cars, EV or ICE.

I’m not buying an EV not because of lack of infrastructure or lack of interest, but because the product sucks.

I’m not buying a gas car either for the same product sucking reason, and an active desire to never purchase a gas car again.

I have only had one charging cable “break” (the cable sheath separated from the plug sheath, it was still usable and had no exposed wires since they all had their own additional sheath) since I stopped using Apple/Samsung phones as my daily driver.

I think the issue is crappy cables that are then super expensive so that they can continue milking you for every penny you are worth.

How about body and facial hair? The faith would need to be only a couple millimeters.
