@sjvn Hey did you notice that Snoop Dogg carried the Olympic torch for the Opening Ceremony in Paris?

Did anyone tell him....?

I watched Olympics rugby last night for a minute, US vs Uruguay. Don't know the rules but they seem to be like wrestling plus a ball and the players have watched basketball and modern dance or ballet. Scoring is on a bravado scale. Fouls are assigned by lottery or caprice; hard to tell from one game. A little smattering of Calvin Ball over everything.

@NoahPaulLeGies True. I'd put up with one if the system was pretty frictionless, the data stayed in my possession (they state this is the case). I'm seeing more camera products on the market with object detection baked in the firmware, i.e.; no cloud AI/ML needed. The rest of the analysis software would need to be hefty but I can imagine it happening on a PC.🤔

I don't need this product because I am young and fair with an impeccable memory*. Just interested from a technical standpoint and note this could finally be a use case for Google Glass (RIP) or Microsoft Holo lens (RIP), or...?

@FireMonkey and then stop by @Beanc 's and see how that install is going. And then here, I'm ready.

@kbsez I like the whole quote:
Hey, hey, hey. Don't be mean. We don't have to be mean because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

@BrentSullivan I know the Saudis are investing massively (as they do) in solar. Can't tell what Exxon, Shell, BP, etc are up to other than lobbying and buying fancy dinners. Always possible they have an actual transition plan of some sort. Not one I like; China has cornered the market on solar panel manufacturing; theirs cost a third of US-made and half of Singapore's.

@BrentSullivan That is their lot regardless until they pivot to renewables. China et al ain't waiting.

@Brisse the Wisconsin Education Association Council springs into action

@LlamaMountainStudioArts yep. I use it. It will interfere/disable some apps. I go into its settings and decide case by case. Whatever I do, it asks for comments so they can fine-tune. Been mainly happy with it. Google is a frequent offender.

@sheseala @Alfred OR, hear me out, hang from the center cross pieces and swing until they fall, repeat, moving around the room concentrically. Oh, wear gloves

@ecksmc on mobile ddg is my default browser. I used ff until the big redesign some years ago. Should probably try Focus

@ecksmc huh. I never load their web page, just hit Ctrl-K and search terms

@Kinnison it's not a _higher_ standard. It's an arbitrary sexist and irrelevant talking point

....can't have eaten too much watermelon because there still _is_ watermelon. And I hear it laughing at me. Roll me over there someone I'll show it
