I’d say it depends, do you believe that you could live as a vegan? Not everyone can, and nothing is wrong with that. I view some animals as yummy and others as not, I’ve never tried eating an oat tree, but I’ll tear up some carrots.

I like the idea that consciousness is experienced by all living things and am totally okay with a certain amount of it ending during the natural progression of my life.

Define “freeloading” for me. They don’t have access to big social services (TANF, SSI, etc) due to not having documentation, roads are funded through fuel taxes as far as I’m aware (so if they’re pumping gas, they’re paying for the roads), dog parks are usually paid out of local sales tax (again, only as far as I know, I live in GA and we’re a fucked up state a lot of times).

Income tax is a big one, but not on a small scale (like municipal level)… Hell, I haven’t ever had a local income tax that I can remember.

The rolling ones are the way to go. Saves enough time for the price, no way I could justify the cost of the fully automatic ones.

This is the first time I’ve heard about a “human feeling” scale so sure, 50 must be perfect.

Why would you pick 50 for the perfect temp? Genuinely curious why land on that number.

I remember it being iffy when I used it back then, the 8320 didn’t have GPS so it was trying to use cell towers to figure out the turn by turn. It was slower, but not as slow as the connection speed would seem because every page load wasn’t dependent on a thousand different CDNs and a hundred different trackers.

A dedicated GPS was essential for cross country (if you didn’t want paper maps or printouts).

Do you mean the Cisco iPhone from the 90s or the Brazilian iphone from the early '00s? I’m totally just taking the piss though, I know you mean the Apple one from the later '00s but it wasn’t that rare to have mobile internet before it, they were just riding the wave that was already breaking across society.

Apple had a major advantage though, lots of people were already eyeing their popular mp3 player, if a phone could be a phone, internet, and a good music player you can sync easily, it won for a lot of people. I couldn’t justify the price and really liked physical keyboards, by the time those became rare I disliked Apple too much to try them.

Somewhere I have my old BB 8320 from 2007, it was awesome because it had WiFi so much better speed when WiFi was available.

I hated yaml with every fiber of my being when first had to use it, but I really wanted to use HomeAssistant and see what I could do with it. I hated it a bit less when I started using docker compose. I started loving it when I started using it as a way to explain json to non-programming IT types, trying to explain it without braces and brackets seems to get across easier. I guess its more human readable, but as a result formatting has to be spot on (those indents and spaces replace the need for brackets and braces).

One useful trick if you truly hate it but need it, write it in json, then just use a converter to change that into yaml.

I’d agree, everyone has a price; I’d also have to say not everyone’s is monetary.

Same, when you were too small to reliably hold on, you ride in the front. I remember the first time riding on the back (probably 4-5) and remembering how much more it sucked because I couldn’t see shit… That was a lifetime ago though lol.

It will all boil down to what kind of maintenance is required. A robot for $50k would pay for itself in saved wages in under a year, even less if it collected tips. A lot of smaller diners (Waffle/Huddle/Waddle/etc) typically have super low staffing requirements (line cook + 1 or 2 servers per shift, occasionally more) and could totally use robots due to the simple layout and standardization of the restaurants.

You’re taking the piss right? Those seem like perfectly reasonable responses.

What video card is required to use it? None, it can be used standalone.

What video card to use it streaming from your PC, at least a 580 sounds okay for some games. You seem to be expecting it to lie, and then inferring truthful information as a lie because the information you held back (which game you want) is the reason for the heavier video card requirement.

Yet buying, harvesting, and selling geofence data is perfectly fine.

Try GrayJay, works great in my experience and has all the stuff (background play, no ads, downloads, etc). One issue I had with ReVanced was casting didn’t always work for me, GrayJay seems to be able to cast to my shield without missing a beat.

I used to work with a guy that had what looked a bit like a Schrader valve (I never got close and looked) a little bit behind one of his ears. I worked with him for a while but never asked what it was for. Any chance you could give some idea as to what it was for? I assumed he may have had a TBI at some point (I feel like I remember an IED story from him) and it was to relieve pressure or something.

I’m with the whole ‘metric is better crowd’, I mean base 10, c’mon that makes shit easy. On the other hand, I prefer Fahrenheit for temp 100%, Celsius is just not good for it (personal preference I guess). A lot of that is probably due to growing up in the USA, but having lived in a few other countries I just prefer Fahrenheit.

Edit: dang ya’ll, didn’t mean to cause all the drama, I’ll calm down now… I guess personal preferences get taken as personal attacks sometimes lol

Be a shame if I traded my stupid collection of URLs around and eventually bought them back only to lose the key, better get insurance in case I forget it.

Really each vote only costs thousands from what I’ve heard, plus with recent rulings/interpretations/laws, you might not have to prepay and hope they follow through. That last part could be me taking the piss at something I read about kickbacks from contracts though.

Save a little more and add some hydrogen peroxide!

Congratulations to you too! Finger’s crossed I’ll get to post the same in a couple decades.
