  • Publication number: 20210103700
    Abstract: Joke recognition methods include using server(s) coupled with data store(s) to communicatively couple with a first computing device through a telecommunications network. A first communication is provided to a user through a user interface of the first computing device or is received through the user interface. A second communication is provided to the user through the user interface or is received through the user interface. In response to providing or receiving the second communication, the server(s) determine whether the second communication, relative to the first communication, includes a joke and/or a punchline. Upon determining that the second communication includes a joke and/or a punchline, the server(s) initiate sending one or more responses to the first computing device. The response(s) initiate providing, through the user interface, an indication to the user that the second communication is recognized as a joke/punchline. Systems for joke recognition provide the disclosed joke recognition methods.

  • Publication number: 20210102699
    Abstract: The present invention pertains to a method and apparatus for cleaning soot, creosote, and other materials adhered to the interior walls of a chimney using a mobile cleaning and vacuuming unit. The apparatus is comprised of a pressurized water delivery system, a vacuum system, a chimney cleaning attachment having a plurality of spray nozzles arranged radially about a central axis, and one or more extensions. The required length and corresponding number of extensions are attached to a pressurized water delivery system as needed to access the chimney interior. The chimney cleaning attachment is mechanically affixed to the free end of the extensions and the device is lowered into a chimney. The water delivery system delivers high pressured water to the nozzle abrade the undesirable material within the chimney. A vacuum system positioned near the base of the chimney removes the water and substances that are dislodged during the washing process.

  • Publication number: 20210105916
    Abstract: An exemplary faraday bag with magnetic closure system includes an actuatable closure section defined between a shielding compartment and an access mouth. The closure section preferably includes a retention segment, a distal flap segment, and an intermediate flap segment therebetween. Base magnets are disposed within the retention segment and a first panel of the bag. Flap magnets are disposed within the distal flap segment and a second panel of the bag. When the closure section is in open configuration, the flap magnets are substantially out of attractive magnetic engagement with respective base magnets, and the shielding compartment is accessible from an ambient environment through the access mouth. When the closure section is in closed configuration, the flap and retention segments are folded with respect to one another, the flap magnets are in attractive magnetic engagement with respective base magnets, and the access mouth is thereby retained in an RF-sealed configuration.

  • Publication number: 20210105202
    Abstract: Methods and systems for service integrated domain name servers are described. A method for service integrated domain name server processing includes receiving, by a requesting device, a service fully qualified domain name (FQDN) and an anycast Internet Protocol (IP) address for service integrated domain name servers, where each service integrated domain name server includes the anycast IP address and a unicast IP address. The requesting device queries domain name servers on the service integrated domain name servers with the anycast IP address to resolve the service FQDN. The requesting device receives the unicast IP address from a closest service integrated domain name server. The requesting device saves the unicast IP address, sends to a service server on the closest service integrated domain name server, a service request on the unicast IP address and receives from the service server, results for the service request.

  • Publication number: 20210104889
    Abstract: A hot swapping protection device for Power over Ethernet which has a state setting switch group, an interface circuit, a power supply device, a packet switching controller, multiple isolation coil sets, and multiple connectors. The packet switching controller receives a digital state value P2 of the interface circuit and a digital signal P1 of the state setting switch group and bitwise compares P1 and P2 so as to output a command to control the DC voltage outputs of the power supply device. The power supply device has a digital power controller and an analog power controller having multiple voltage output terminals for providing DC voltages to the multiple connectors. Before removing a cable connected to a connector, all voltage output states of the voltage output terminals corresponding to the connector are set to a cutoff state, so that sparks generation can be avoided during subsequent cable plug-in and unplugging.

  • Publication number: 20210101317
    Abstract: Methods of making a composite article, such as a motor housing, are provided herein. The method can include applying a resin-fiber material to a shaped surface to form an intermediate article. The resin-fiber material includes an uncured resin composition and a fiber substrate material. The method further includes solidifying the uncured resin composition present in the intermediate article to form the composite article. Solidifying can be accomplished by applying heat to the intermediate article to initiate an exothermic reaction comprising polymerization, cross-linking, or both of the uncured resin composition. Application of the heat from the heat source can be ceased after initiation of the exothermic reaction, but polymerization, cross-linking or both of remaining uncured resin composition can continue in one or more of a radial, circumferential, or axial direction through a thickness of the resin-fiber material in the absence of heat from the heat source to form the composite article.
