We did do it! It's called testicles!

Someone's Claw fucked out and this is the result. All the usernames end with 2 digits and it seems they follow a sequence, as if the same algo created all of them.

If alcohol was somehow invented only today it will probably be outright criminalized around the globe.

Humans have been living with alcohol for literal millenia so I reckon it's much harder to have some globally uniform response to it.

Social media is a clear and present danger right now, and I support the suppression of it. I would go one step further and ban algorithmic feeds outright. They do so much damage!

I am not happy with the way this is being implemented though.

Trump, for one.

Just don't use snap. No need to throw out the baby woth the bathwater.

The fancy ones had an accelerator pedal, but most just had the lever on the steering column.

I learnt to drive on one of those. I'm a city kid but my grandfather was a wool farmer. Every school holiday we'd visit and I's spend my days literally puttering around the farm, which was pretty huge (~2000ha).

When I started out, 13ish or so, I had to stand on the clutch to get it down.

If you gave it enough beans and dropped the clutch it'll pop a wheelie! (Don't tell my grandpa)

Im in Ireland and I have 6 sick days... More and I take unpaid leave which I can probably claim from welfare.

> the amount of painkillers used and prescribed here seems much lower than what Americans tell me is normal in the US.

Americans' relationship with painkillers is absolutely unhinged.

For the rest of the world:

Acetaminophen = Paracetamol

Unfortunately most just don't care, and a truly dumb tv will have to be so expensive no-one will want to buy it.

People tend to really underestimate the value of their personal information, so they don't really realize how much their modern tech is subsidized by personal information.

Scrap the electoral college and bring in proportional representation.

> Travelers going between countries carry items for people who need to send stuff.

Drug mule as a service in 3... 2... 1...

Modern iPhone batteries are basically user replaceable are they not? They are metal encased and the adhesive can be electronically disabled. They don't seem "worse" to me?

> this law will make phones _worse_ for most people

Sometimes we have to acknowledge the externalities of our lifestyle and take things down a notch.

Even if most throw out their old phones, now at least it'll be trivial to shuck these devices to get the battery for recycling, while sending the device for refurb or further recycling.

A key component to effective recycling is separation, and this is one step in that direction

Then do just that :)

The same US that famously follows through with protection promises?

What would I care though? I'll be dead!

The fact that you spell agile with a capital "A" says all I need to know.

I presume the other half is residential heating?

Why was it pulled?

Anyone who has used a table saw before knows it's anything but probabilistic. Jus a little carelessness and you cut your thumb off.

As with LLMs, where careless use results in you dropping prod db or exposing user data.

No attribution to the original game?

It cannot be understated how religiously opposed many in the woodworking community are to even a single table saw assisted cut making it's way to a piece of furniture, no matter how well designed.

Plenty see {{some_woodworker}} as a traitor for this policy and will never contribute again if any clearly labeled table saw cuts is actually allowed to be used in furniture making.

€7/month is mad considering the hardware is my own.

Why use many word when few word do trick.

Just missing the "controversies" and "personal life" sections!

Yes, and my point is 10 years from now when you are streaming your 16k Netflix movie while saving all you 8k cctv camera footage to the cloud you might have a different opinion about gigabit internet.

Adobe Air was just Flash wearing an ill fitting business suit.

People were saying the same thing about 10Mbps 15 years ago.

Things change, and 25Gbps is massive future proofing for the next 50 years probably.

At some point there was an "AI" assistant in windows called Cortana. I think it was a lovely little joke and a nod to their fun side. Unique name, easy to remember. Like Apple's Siri.

I'm sad they replaced it with copilot.
