  • Modern specs are complicated. I vaguely remember something about a cryptographic key the driver needs to be signed with to successfully complete the handshake to enable all display options between the computer and display.

    Not entirely unwarranted either, an unexpected amount of voltage on an unexpected pin because the driver / hardware is misconfigured damaging your TV would suck. (Still sounds like the Forum is being a dick about it though.)

    Dogs are significantly more subjective. And there’s a noticeable correlation with dogs trying to please their handler by indicating someone the handler is suspicious of.

    Nothing is foolproof and its good to have more tools in the kit.

    This kind of fundamental university based research is about to get a whole lot rarer in the US and that’s not great.



  • I can see thinking the tragedy of the commons is capitalist propaganda if you think there is a hard line between people and corporations.

    The North Sea fishing industry didn’t collapse because too many of the proletariat wanted to do a lot of fishing, it collapsed because thousands of people organized into dozens of groups that systematically overstrained the ecosystem. Because those groups wanted to make more profit for a small group of hundreds of people. Everyone involved was acting in their rational best interest with no oversight or regulation guarding the big picture view and it caused everyone involved to destroy their livelihoods. Other than the ones at the top who’s livelihood is/was consolidating profit of course.

    The tragedy of the commons isn’t about how it’s an individual’s fault or responsibility. It’s about how larger groups need disinterested guardrails for long term higher quality of life.
