That google location thing has been tracking me since before I got a google phone. It's not just login data from computers either because it is at random points on the road

NitroSpazzz posted:That's kind of the point. Anytime your phone 'checks in' it drops a point on the map, depending on your phones settings this could be nearly continuous or only when you use maps or something. The downside of carrying around a little computer in your pocket all the time I guess. I'm kind of surprised though, I picked up a new phone a few days before heading to Germany and no data from my previous phone is on there. That's what I mean though, my old phone was a blackberry which had no google services on it. Blackberry might have my location but google shouldn't

It seems that data was being recorded since I got my tablet, guess it must have been picking up unsecured hotspots and pinging my location as I drove around.

For the people with AC, supposing you didn't have AC what does the temperature actually get up to?

Yuck that is some high heat. Over here it's rare to have aircon in houses (I've yet to meet anyone that does have it) Then again rainwater is generally cold already

I suppose it would be futile to try to explain that drivers of vehicles that literally use coal as a fuel source try to avoid black smoke as it generally means they are using too much coal

My parent's cat kicked my old eee off the top of a 7' tall wardrobe Twice Aside from some keys falling off it kept going just merry until the battery died and I put a virus on it which meant it never ran properly again

kastein posted:What's with you gents using miles? Come on, you've been on the metric system for how many years? We like to mix it up depending on what it is. Small measurements are in mm, cm and m Larger ones are in miles People are measured in feet and inches Drinks like cola or orange juice come in metric measurements but milk and beer come in pints Road speeds are in mph If you go to a market place you can use imperial and metric when asking for weights of things. In supermarkets/regular shops they come in metric quantities People's weight are measured in stone

I remembered last night I have a new rear-exhaust section bought for my 107 sitting in the shed I'd been egged on by co-workers telling me I could change it myself, before common sense kicked in reminding me I only have a half scissor jack and a sloped driveway. If anyone wants it (I seem to remember someone on here having an Aigo) then I'd swap it for a beer

Ages ago someone was asking for AI related books. Just remembered a novel my dad read to me as a kid  quote:American narrator Neil Mannix is a troubleshooter for multinational British Electric, and is sent to former British colony in Africa, Nyala to oversee the installation of a huge 550-ton power transformer. The newly independent Nyala is rich with oil, and hopes to prop up its shaky democracy and economy with a showcase new power station located at a remote location near its oil fields. Due to the increasing precarious political situation, the Nyalan government insists that British Electric dispatch the transformer via huge flatbed truck to reassure the populace, and suspecting difficulties, Mannix is sent to supervise the travels of "the rig". However, a civil war breaks out, and Mannix is bullied by a local doctor and an Irish nun into using the rig as a traveling hospital. He must deal with opposing armies, unsafe roads and bridges, some untrustworthy crew members and the local Nyalans who start to trek after the huge machine, which has taken on symbolic role for the populace.
