Here is an even worse idea: display the bank saldo on the dash. When you go over the speed limit the dollars start counting down exponentially.


I've actually created a business model based on it.

The vhs rental stores were dying left and right. The one i looked into got most of its money from snacks and drinks. The subscription moddel was 75 cent, renting a movie would drop from 3-4 euro to 75 cent. (only 1 at a time) You could keep it for a week, then you would get a call if you could please return it.

The existing customers knew vhs rental was not really a thing anymore. Many visited just for a chat.

I figured one could guilt people into keeping the sub. I wasnt looking to make a profit, just curuous about the puzzle.

Im not even ashamed. haha


In a sense, a social club for movie lovers. Why not switch to showing movies and serving some food?


You could call it a cinema!


Send in the LLMs!

I want to be able to say single words at it and see a visualization of: disco tango banana reptillian


That would make for an awesome password reminder!


If ozone levels are best kept low and disease is best kept at zero you could use carbon filters to remove the ozone eventualy?

The filter also removes pathogens but on its own i cant imagine it effective enough.

If it cant keep up you can still purge the room after use.


Looking at uvb there use to be several afordable manufacturers with good test data but they all closed shop. What is left either doesnt work or is scarry expensive.

The lamps are cheap the coating is hard to develop. Im not sure but it seems if you want to produce it you have to redo the rnd to figure out how.


I wouldnt spoil the fun of explaining such an obvious pun. Why ask?


That just calls for the purchase of 2 copies and the application of the learnings inside. A near infinite source of inside jokes. I know well who I have to make.


Imagine something like dht to pump database rows around. If you have an application you put the row at the top before passing it to the next node.

You type a search query then wait for the river of spam to float by.


If pages arent fast or links are broken i move the url to a different file checked less frequently, when checking those i move what fails to the next file and check that on an even lower frequency (if at all)

Yacy is also fun be it a tad weird.


Seems a fun monetization formula. Something to buy from the dev
