  • The Irony of 'You Wouldn't Download a Car' Making a Comeback in AI Debates

  • Tell me you've never compiled software from open source without saying you've never compiled software from open source.

    The only differences between open source and freeware are pedantic, right guys?

  • There is no real need to use captured products though, so OP's question is flawed.

    Any desire to use said products (or not) needs to weigh the pros and cons of the captured products vs alternatives.

  • Or if the fuses apply to too broad of a system, the wireless modem should be able to be disconnected.

    Manufacturers like to implement this capability using modules which can be used across their lines of vehicles. Here's an example for a 2017 Silverado, but you'd want to research service manuals / diagrams for the vehicle you're considering buying: https://www.silveradosierra.com/threads/2017-silverado-removed-lte-modem.660593/

  • You have to remove the plastic label if you want to recycle this plastic bottle.

    Jump

  • Didn't forget, that just isn't relevant to the assertion that "plastic can't be recycled". The second use of the plastic doesn't have to be a form which requires the exact same properties as the initial use. The remains of a bottle don't have to be remade into another bottle. There are still nearly infinite possible uses for the plastic.

  • hardly any plastic is actually recyclable

    Almost every thermoplastic is recyclable easily, though not necessarily profitably (because the new materials are so cheap).

    Recycling that PET bottle into a different usable object would involve cleaning it, cutting it into a shape appropriate for your chosen remanufacturing process (filament or flakes), heating it to melted but not too hot, then forming (fdm, molding, etc.).

    My guess would be that getting a durable graphic printed on PET is more difficult since we don't see that, and adhesive or wrapped labels are almost certainly more expensive than printing would be if it were easy.

    Edit to add: I agree that more responsibility needs to be on the manufacturer, but don't buy into the misinformation that plastic can't be recycled. Make it more expensive to use new plastic than recycled material.

  • Biden is owned by the same people as Trump. There's only one party, the party of the Oligarchs.

    Is not the same as

    all democrats and republicans act the same and are equal

    Refusing to see nuance in the difference between the sentiment of these two statements does a disservice to yourself and your cause (unless you're on the side of the billionaires).

    So here you go since you missed the distinction: they can both be (and are) corrupt, without being "the same".

    People like to point out all the ways they're not the same and one team is better than the other. Fine. Those things can all be true, and politicians in both those parties are still corrupt.

    It was only a couple presidents ago that Democrats had the House, Senate, and President. Even then they couldn't get their own members to vote for anti-corruption legislation.

  • OP makes a statement that all democrats and republicans act the same and are equal

    Wrong. OP never wrote that - YOU made that statement as a strawman. You should try to be a more honest person.

    Or disproves the strawman you set up yourself?

  • I'm not sure, but your comment seems to imply an assumption that the foam was designed to be external to the air path and is getting unintentionally sucked in? That's not the case, the foam is literally only inside an "air chamber" that the air directly travels through.
