Going to the hardware store is fun! I could walk around looking at the stuff there for hours.
Home despot is a last resort for me if both the smaller stores with competent employees (I blame HD for this, not the employees themselves) don’t have it and waiting for an order to come in is a problem for any nunber of reasons.
I’m neither american nor European and my first read of the top comment was interpretting it as the american organization. It took me reading several of the response comments to realize that OP wasn’t advocating for the nonsense going on in the usa.
Agreed. You have a bit different perspective on it than I do but I was coming to say the same thing. It’s funny when the first comment you read was what you were going to say.
I’m flipping between this comment thread and another one about a tv that looks similar to mine saying it’s out of storage with the discussion being about thee fact the storage has likely been filled with unsynced log files. I’ve been thinking about loading some custom slop firmware on my tv for a while now but I’d rather work on fun projects than have to ward off the onslaught of major corporations trying to abuse us.
The problem is I don’t know the answer! It’s a case by case issue that takes real effort to resolve each time.
I think that makes a bit of a dilemma. Which is better slop software with quality issues or proprietary closed source which could be running any number of malicious processes?
You wouldn’t even need to write in the blank space. Just make a little arrow indicating you want the s in prison to move to the end.
Good catch, I didn’t see that before your comment. 😂
I think there’s some regional variation and it’s been a number of years since I’ve done it but for making jerky with wild game you just need to freeze it for a minimum amount of time to eliminate the risk from parasites. Not all animals are infected with ones that will impact people but definitely not worth taking the risk.
How would you differentiate your skill from perfect pitch? I just replied to a different comment they might gave perfect pitch. Identifying a pitch without reference is one of the things identified on the wikipedia page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_pitch
Sounds like you might have perfect pitch which only ~1 in 10,000 have. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_pitch
The other part of this that’s notable is they’re substituting in corn in place of rice. Corn production is heavily subsidised in the states. This is also part of the reason why there’s so much high fructose corn syrup in their food and they turn a ton of corn into ethanol.
It’s cut just a little too short to be Paul Rudd. I need to see Mac at the end and Conan laughing throughout.
For what its worth I do it the same as you. I feel accomplished when I get it all in one round but that only happens with the easy puzzles at the beginning of the week. I have a goal of completing a puzzle on just the first pass of accross clues without having to use any down clues.
They could also just continue collecting data while the mic is muted and hold that until the next time the device is unmuted. Then upload their spy data at the same time as legitimate data to hide it.
Listening =/= conceding or taking action
I agree with you, I recently explained it to a group of engineers and techs.
I haven’t read the article but what’s described in the headline is abhorerent. Ironically the technology could be used to identifying times when artists’ identities are being misattributed or stolen. Pretty simple for an artist to define their portfolio then have a bot flag anything it finds with their signature on it that they didn’t create themselves.
The backlash was because your response is ambiguous, it was likely interpretted by the people criticizing you as a legitimate question rather than your intended sarcasm.
I’d expect most or nearly all people active in this conversation agree that parasocial relationships are bad but you’re continuing on like their criticism of your communication is an endorsement for celebrity worship.
He’s way past fucking just his customers, he’s been fucking everybody for a while now.
