Sorry but (1+17+18±20)/4=14

The problem is, while using ai is still discretionary, that is rapidly changing, and it ia being integrated into nearly every commercial consumer OS, browser, mobile device, etc. It’s entirely plausible that there’s a near future where most USAians can’t ot don’t know how to use any technology that doesnt have this sort of technology integrated.

And if the precedent is already set (which it is), that its perfectly acceptible for companies to turn over people for any sort of actions or words that are not approved by those in power…

I could swear I’d run across some packaged prawns in game, but i may be hallucinating that. Weird though, as I can even visualize the packaging. I did find this when searching though from a fallout game that was cancelled:

My buddy for 17 years, since passed - Bailey (because he was a tabby with a belly the same color of Bailey’s Irish Cream.

My current littermates, brother and sister:

Girl: Willett Boy: Scout

Both named after bourbons - Willett and Smooth Ambler Old Scout.

Of course Obama did more drone strikes than Bush - drones were barely a thing during the Bush years. The technology only became practical, cost effective, and mass produced during Obama’s term.

It took a lot of these reactions and almost 30 years for me to realize my childhood was pretty fucked up.

“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition …There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”

A lot of international aid and development programs fall under the department of state.

One of my favorites was from Bender: “Oh, but you can, but you might have to ‘metaphorically’ make a deal with the ‘devil’. And by ‘devil’, I mean Robot Devil, and by ‘metaphorically’, I mean get your coat.”

I’ve been quoting Farnsworth’s “I don’t want to live on this planet anymore” a lot lately.

Except the commercial aggregators have all started filtering the data of specific planes on request - you won’t find Elon’s or Swift’s ADSB data on popular sites/apps like FlightAware or Flightradar24. (I’m not familiar with PlaneLogger). Open source aggregators like OpenSky or ADSB Exchange will have them though, but the UIs of those sites are far less polished and have fewer features.

Yes. I don’t believe much of anything he says, but “dictator on day one” was very obviously his real plan.

Those costs became salaries and paid engineers and skilled tradespeople, lawyers and financiers, auditors and test pilots, illustrators and modelors, janitors and security guards, truck drivers and inventory specialists, logisticians and mathmericians, scientists and metallurgists, flight doctors and software developers… and on, and on, and on - it may be one of the single biggest job creating programs in the USA in a Generation. That money also got routed into mutual funds and 401k’s and into the communities where all those people live and work. While there are certainly more noble and more effective uses for money, the F35 program has provided a living for a great many people.

Many long COVID infections are causing/caused significant damage to organs (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11834749/). A vaccination isn’t going to reverse organ damage.

Based on his performance in free practice, I’m gonna say Bearman.

Edit: IF Haas is able to get him back on track.

An episode that contains one of my favorite quotes of the entire series:

Oh, a lesson in not changing history from Mr. “I’m my own grandpa”.

Thanks for sharing this. I’ve been a motorcyclist for quite a long time, but normally stick to myself and had never heard of this. While I doubt I’ll encounter a situation I’m not prepared to deal with (my day job is essentially planning for and taking charge on very bad days, so I’m pretty good at it), this will better help me spot others that may need assistance.

Loma Prieta gang rise up! I was in Los Gatos swinging across a set of monkey bars on a playground. I remember being able to see literal waves in the ground.

If it’s an OEM part that I need, I usually use the car manufacturer’s parts catalog to find a part number. Then I enter that part number in a web browser, and browse through whatever comes up to find the lowest price from a trustworthy source (usually a car dealer online somewhere that sells/ships parts and has an online store, but sometimes eBay, Amazon, etc.)

Aftermarket parts get a little more complicated because it depends entirely on what kind of part you’re looking for.
