portable swamp cooler. it leaked and makes your carpet a swamp and maybe cooler. also luggable.

roller-type kitchen knife sharpener. the finer edge sharpener actually dulls the knife more.

tile tracker. it was so big, I didn’t lose it. I also hate the concept because it works like insurance does.

imo, I think they’re playing the plausible deniability card.

They can always say they don’t know what is happening in the lower ranks. Once the other side raises arms, suddenly they’re going to play the self-defense card.

On the other side, they preach about how asians should support each other against the power and influences of the west.

yup, good suggestions.
there’s lots of them apparently.

same reason a painting or drawing is named, i guess.

no. but i try to forgive myself for not taking the opportunity. imo, it is a skill that forms through a lot of interactions. a form of rizz. and to me, it doesn’t come as natural.

While the proposed bill’s goals are great, I am not so sure about how it would be tested and enforced.

It’s cool that on current LLMs, the LLM can generate a ‘no’ response like those clips where people ask if the LLM has access to their location – but then promptly gives advices to a closest restaurant as soon as the topic of location isn’t on the spotlight.

There’s also the part about trying to contain ‘AI’ to follow once it has ingested a lot of training data. Even goog doesn’t know how to curb it once they are done with initial training.

I am all up for the bill. It’s a good precedent but a more defined and enforce-able one would be great as well.

yes. but to so as not cause miscommunication problems, maybe keep it to close people who are in the know of what you mean.

and it gets more fun if there’s an alert for an impending amber alert

hard data and proper research

Maybe the answer you expect is not presented in this article?

Or at least the expectation you are presenting is something an exact science would produce?

screenfetch?

go, go product dangers!

…Mighty morphin’ product dangers~

I like your way of thinking!

This is definitely better than what I had in mind:

• gooGem replies with ackshually...
• gooGem replies with if you know, you know

Finally some news about the first human trial.

The part about them not issuing regular progress reports since day 1 (a month or so ago) is, how these doctors put it, concerning.

Apart from that, I think jumping from monkeys to human experiments when the success rate is low feels either rush work or some high person in charge decided to go all-or-nothing.

gentoo takes a long time. but currently they started shipping out binaries – and with a more recent architecture too (x86-64-p2 or - p4) which helps a lot as compared to building your own Libre office.

they got good guides as well. I got to use one for troubleshooting even if I use a diff distro.

oh. anyways.

Thank you for the suggestion! I’ll try it when I stumble on some.

you have a good point with “use” as a differentiator.

this is similar to buying non-potable water vs potable, with pretty much the potable water being more expensive.

I think it’s within reasonable bounds because the extra cost comes from the added iodine or the minute minerals in maldon to add the extra taste.

Thanks for the input on the salt, I’ll try it again and see what I am missing on the cavey sensation.

You have a good point with electric sources being a differentiator. This is like with watered bottles saying their water comes from a natural spring in a mountain.

Here’s another viewpoint to that, if you will: maybe you are paying a mark up for the source (or the assurance of such source, depending on the marketing) and the pure commodity itself doesn’t have to be marked up for it.

As for internet, I think quality happens because businesses tier it to be. And, of course, with pure internet you have to pay for what amount you have used. I still don’t think you need to go full bells and whistles as it is more reasonable to just pay what you used. I understand though that some areas don’t have much choice on this.

this is where your-mileage-may-vary(ymmv) comes in.

I am sure everybody has different preferences to things and the point still comes across. You might still splurge on to some preferences but “better version” doesn’t mean the “expensive” bells-and-whistles one.

I am happy reading each comment and knowing how people treat their salt, coffee and internet with different kinds of values.
