They typically don't. They do proxy it if there is something preventing a direct connection, but the proxy bandwidth is super limited and results in pretty terrible playback quality.

Traditional currencies are backed by governments and the global economy. Boiling down USD/EUR to "it's worth money because we say so" is many many magnitudes larger of a splicification than saying the same for crypto.

This unironicly lowers property value. Buyers like scouting out new homes on street view.

Two reasons:

  1. Auto investing, esp 401(k)s
  2. Flash sale

Sure, but EVs don't have transmissions in the same way as ICE vehicles. If they have a transmission at all, it's virtually always a single-speed transmission with no gears to shift. Electric motors basically output maximum torque from 0 to some max speed, so there's no need to shift gears to keep in in a sweet spot. They just need to reduce the speed because the motor runs at a higher rpm than the tires.

Lol, and what would the ransom be for taking down someone's money-burning hobby project?

Lol, agreed. Though, I'll point out that many, many buildings (and people) easily predate the internet.

You can easily do a same-day wire transfer of this amount. Technically there's no limit on the size of wire transfers. There's probably a point where the bank will start asking questions, but car / mortgage down-payment sized transfers aren't an issue.

But, yeah, I bet cash withdrawals are another ballgame. Not least because the bank probably doesn't actually keep that much cash in typical customer-facing locations.

The issue is that we've replaced Minecraft with TikTok. The children yearn for the mines.

Title is somewhat misleading. It's not for anything video-related. It's for using a (probably free) photo of actress Cuca Escribano without permission.

Looking to pick up a self cleaning litterbox but there are a lot of options. The coolest one I've seen by far is the CatGenie Automatic Cat Box, but it's nearly $500 and seems a little overkill.

I've also seen that the PetSafe Litterbox is a very popular choice, but it uses proprietary litter refills and crystal litter when I'd prefer clay litter.

I've been getting away with a $15 do-it-yourself litterbox just fine for a while, but I think I (and my cat) would appreciate something that doesn't require daily maintenance. Something as simple as an automatic rake would be interesting.

My main goals are:

  1. Requires as little maintenance as possible while keeping my cat happy and the smell under control
  2. No proprietary lock-in (I can use my own litter)
  3. Doesn't break the bank
  4. Built well, won't break / easy to fix / good warranty / cheap enough that I can just buy a new one if it breaks

While I am looking for budget friendly options, I'm also curious on the more expensive options. I can't imagine what justifies spending $700 on a Litter-Robot when emptying a litterbox manually isn't that bad and the CatGenie is $500 and promises zero-maintenance. Have you had good luck with premium options like that?
