People are downvoting you, because they fail to see the reference to Tucker Carlson always being mock confused about even very simple things and making that stupid fart-smelling face.

Well, if they didn’t care about being flooded with machine generated trash, they wouldn’t have set the limit to books you can self publish down to a mere three per day.

Here’s a basically fully automated service where you can generate a shitty book for $200. You can even have it printed as a paperback for more useless waste or have it AI narrated as a shitty audiobook.

I hate everything about it.

This can only mean that Google is about to axe a product that people like and instead introduce a new chat app.

I assume by “fail” you mean “didn’t succeed in preventing California from building an efficient high-speed rail system”, right?

You probably underestimate the amount of effort Apple puts into not doing this, to maintain user privacy, and for a good while their services have suffered for it.

As an example I’d highlight the year in review feature between Apple Music and Spotify. “Replay” is significantly worse than “Wrapped” and I believe the difference is data handling is the key differentiator. However, there are some advances in balancing privacy 2ith utility, as highlighted in this post from Apple ML research: https://machinelearning.apple.com/research/scenes-differential-privacy

My thought exactly. Arabic numerals imply the decimal system and then people can’t use their grandma’s recipes anymore.

Terrorism works. Good job!

There’s been talk multiple times of turning the Matthew Corbett series by Robert R. McCammon into a series.

I could see every book being turned into a maybe 10 episode season.

A microwave already freezes when you set the time to a negative number.

And it would have a great collaboration, but also a friendly rivalry, going with my robot butler.

It’s an ereggtion.

The historical context here is that’s how you cracked eggs in the middle ages, before they had our modern egg-cracking technology. You balanced the egg on the head of a priest or monk and then hit it with a rock. So the excitement comes from the imminent enjoyment of a freshly cracked egg.

Also many birds, especially corvids.

It’ll never be truly equal as long as there’s a fixed order of the letters. The only way to make it fair is to include all the letters (from every writing system, not just the latin because that feels overly eurocentric) and the guarantee true randomness of the order or come up with some system where the order is shifted by one every time it’s mentioned. Also, the original letters must be in the center to begin with (to make them equally distant for RTL or LTR readers), to make up for their historical over exposure.

I’m no good with kids, but basically turn the things on and off a few times, to make sure they don’t get stuck from mineral build up or something. If you need to change your faucet, you need to be able to turn the water off and this is what these valves do.

I saw a clip from probably Fox where someone made that point. He wanted to be able to use his grandma’s recipes for whatever and also noted that the metric system was creacted by revolutionaries, the implication obvious being the pride that North America has never had a single revolution, which is why you’ll see pictures of the king in every classroom and the union jack being flown everywhere in the colonies.

I bet with time you could just hold the pill flat on your hand, reach back and your asshole would gobble it up like a horse.

Yeah, I thinks it’s partly a cultural thing. I’ve seen more indian colleagues do this than anyone else.
