Tire pressure monitoring sensors don’t transmit continually. It probably varies from one manufacturer to another, but it isn’t enough that a fixed camera could reliably catch them transmitting. They have a battery, and the accuracy has to be balanced with life span. The older systems you mentioned mostly used things like ABS sensors to sense tire inflation issues. No wireless signals with them.

I not familiar with high end vehicles, maybe jaguars etc are different but an average person will have or did have what I mentioned for the most part.

Tech changes, maybe next year we get wifi TPMS 🫤

Uncomfortable for the US and probably the best possible option.

Ok, this really helped. I took the statement in the article WAY to literally.

??? I have never heard of F-stop but how would this work? Especially then!

I’ve spent much of my adult life being transient, going to where I find work. It’s given me the ability to see interesting places, but rarely to know them deeply. There have been places I wanted to stay. Good community, good support networks. I loved the place, but struggled to find work. I left. It isn’t always great but I was used to moving.

I can’t imagine what it is like for immigrants traveling longer distances than me. Just for work and a better life. I believe they are leaving good communities and support networks not just for work, but for bigger reasons than I can really understand. How awful to get to a place and find it to be hateful towards them but have no immediate option to leave. It shouldn’t be that way.

I really like Bill Hicks, but because he was so on point about stuff then (~35 years ago!) I have found it hard to watch his stuff for the last decade. So great, but too real. I hate that I struggle to find it funny now like I did then.

But great share! Totally relevant.

Thanks for this post. I’ve been aware of demi- for awhile but didn’t know what it meant, so didn’t understand this shower thought. I looked it up and am now better for it! But now I wonder what options demimoore could mean.

Not who you replied to, but thanks for explaining! I saw the /j but still didn’t get it. I wasn’t a good chemistry student…

Maybe you should wash your dishes.

Very interesting to me that asteroids that are not that much larger than a human can form/stay together! Let alone be landed on. How much gravity would we generate in space?

I remember reading about something like this 20 years ago that seemed promising, but ended up only handling non plastic waste. Specifically waste from turkey processors if I remember correctly. The article said something about anything into oil, but it didn’t work out that way. I’m glad that folks are still researching this, but we really just need to have less plastic waste.

I have no excuses! Thank you for pointing this out. Not sure what my issue was earlier.

Interesting choice by Voyager. But it is nice that there are apps available for fediverse users who want them!

I’m not sure what you mean. I don’t use voyager, and find it to be off putting that voyager would share a link in such a way that is essentially an ad for itself.

I shared the direct link for the rest of us 🙂 it doesn’t seem that ! is needed anymore.

I find it frustrating that the same author wrote both of these articles, published one day apart, but made no connections between them.

Edit: I couldn’t read earlier…

I wonder why voyager does this?

Thanks! Now I think that when you said “card is online” you meant the SIM card, not credit card. I use an alternative OS that, as I understand it, does a little to offset the tracking but it is, indeed, outside of my scope! I mostly have my phone on airplane mode, even away from home, but of course not always. I do know that this OS eliminates the ability for the phone to call home when on airplane mode.

whenever that card is online

Do you mean when the card is an active card viable for use? Or stored in the phone somehow? I’m curious what online means and if I am doing it… I don’t have any payments connected to a mobile phone but I do have a SIM card, probably paid for with a now expired card.

Well, I did it. I am sure I have more work to do but I do not have to worry about the other stuff. Thanks for your encouragement!
