What about good ole Big Top Beer at my local Raytown market

Not sure. Like any field I suspect there’s specialties including people who do research/modeling vs consuming that data and advising based on it.

Code and snippets to analyze data work well when you can send chunks of it to multiple servers (think analyzing the effect of weather patterns).

Since a lot of that stuff is running on Linux (similar to cloud computing) it makes sense that people that write function/scripts/utilities would already be comfortable in that environment and use it as their daily driver.

Depends on what kind of detector it is but alot of them use small amounts of radiation and a detector that triggers when the number of particles detected drops below some level.

How smoke detectors work

That being the case any particulate large enough to interrupt the particles could cause it to go off.

For example high humidity misty water from a shower wafting over a detector placed over the bathroom door, etc.

And that’s the point of the game. It’s an art piece on the horrors of war.

A deep dark look at what war truly can be instead of the glorified way it’s often portrayed.

I can’t speak to specifics but I can give you some ideas.

So the obd port might have some basic info such as acceleration and turns since and/or at least torque/thrust readings that you can poll since insurance companies and others have devices that use them to track your driving (often paired with GPS which you don’t need)

So some arduino project that lets you plug in and poll that data and to establish a trigger for some audio could be fun.

Pair that with something else that lets you connect via auxiliary or Bluetooth so you can play it over the speaker and you might have something.

This might be easier since a pi would be better suited to playback of audio and might be easier to get everything connected and to tinker with the Python to respond to certain readings

There’s the New York Subway if you can stomach the smell

I love the internet archive but yeah, there was just no way this wasn’t going to backfire. And by handling things the way they did they damaged the reasonable defense of archivist (not only for themselves) because publishers and others often cite that archival and backups are just ~~“pseudonyms”~~ “synonymous” for piracy.

They aren’t but the way this was handled made it impossible for them to argue otherwise and it also creates a legal precedent for lawsuits and judgments by publishers against others who are doing such work.
