EE (specifically embedded systems) here: just how much power do you need to zap a weed effectively? I would’ve thought a 40W laser would have been more than enough, and then scale that up for a hundred acres.
only solar would be tough, but a small EV battery with a large panel in the sun for 12h seems like it’d be a lot of juice to run WeedZapper2000 with a topping off charge overnight, no?
The spirit of the law is a very real thing and is taken into account by judges all the time.
I don’t understand the end game here. What possible benefit is there to RFK or the federal government to reject sound science? I don’t see a profit motive, I don’t see a grift that’d be “worth” the deaths… it’s not like ivermectin is something you could profit off of… why?
Hudson’s Bay doesn’t exactly have much for a luxury experience either. At one point when I was a kid maybe, but they’re a loooong way from that point in their history.

ssh -D8080 myserver and then use any of the proxy extensions (i like proxyswitchy omega I think it’s called). Also works with tsocks or anything that can use a SOCKS5 proxy, and as an added bonus, it’ll resolve DNS through the proxy as well.
I’ve been using the -L2500:localhost:25 -L14300:localhost:143 trick to access my personal email without leaking anything outside of the ssh tunnel for years, and things like sslh and corkscrew allow me to get around/through draconian corporate IT policies with almost 100% success.
The last trick I have is iodine which can tunnel traffic through DNS. If you can’t get a direct connection to the iodine endpoint it can be damn slow, but if you gotta get through it can be a godsend.
unless I am very much mistaken this is only true for air source heat pumps. If you're in a cold environment I would expect you'd want a ground source heat pump instead, although the installation cost for that will be significantly higher than air source.
Exactly how I feel about it as well.
oh I wasn't talking about storage media. I'm talking about rack servers, switches, storage arrays (with new drives), etc., etc.. The older hardware can wear out/break (I used to do MTTF/MIL-HDBK-217 calculations for avionics) but generally speaking it's got a lot of life left in it by the time it hits the surplus market. It's also usually designed with redundancies/failover mechanisms which means you don't have to bodge together inferior solutions.
Kinder Surprise are readily available all over the US. The yellow plastic egg has been modified so it essentially splits the two halves of the chocolate egg, but I see them for sale at every grocery store, Walmart, etc.
They used to be banned, but not for quite some time now.
Interesting; I thought this worked be a single high power laser (or a few) with galvanometers for targeting.
Would love to learn more about how it’s really done (as opposed to how I imagine it’d be done).
