MMRs are. For the time being anyway.

So I think in Canada you can get an antibody test to see if you need a booster or not. In the US, insurance won’t pay for the test, but the shot itself is covered. So I just got the booster for free. I’m not much younger than you are.

I don’t agree with Texas about much at all, but a good brisket just needs salt, pepper, smoke, a low cooking temp and patience.

What’s American rail?

Our side of town has zero rail, and it would take about two hours on a bus to get home from downtown, 7 miles away. Oh, and the Amtrak train 7 miles away shows up once a day at 2am. And I could probably hitchhike to where I’m going faster than that shit train would get me there.

I don’t know if this is relevant, but I deal a lot with MS support in my role at work. There is some built in AI that you need to go through in order to open a support case, and it’s about 85% useless, and also has a caveat at the end that says “AI provided information may be incorrect”. However, there are cases where it’s useful, and I don’t have to deal with a human who copies and pastes a novel in their email to tell me they’re working on it.

Ive had cancellations processed after product upgrades and it went through in less than a day, and I didn’t have to read 5 paragraphs of bullshit canned script from a human. So it’s not all bad, I guess.

That’s the extent to which I use AI for work. I can’t imagine another use case where I wouldn’t have to double check everything, and if I have to do that, I may as well just do it myeself.

I find this funny because this

My main concern is that this tech is not 100% accurate. I feel like it shouldn’t be used on its own.

Is generally the least of their concerns.

$ASTS

Knowing the absolute cabbages walking around that place, it’s probably a WiFi pineapple that will accept any password and is just intercepting all of the traffic.

Have they tried crayons and construction paper?

COBOL: You’re a fucking dinosaur

The young lady with the uzi…Is she single?

What a great song. Eddie Vedder did a really good reboot also, played on The Bear.

I have to pay about $50 USD per month just for the luxury of having heating in the northern US., even during the summer when I don’t need it. R The gas company can fucking blow me, I’m getting natural gas out of my house as quickly as I can afford it.

In getting crushed psychologically right now. My wife is battling leukemia and now my puppy has a broken leg.

I seriously don’t know what to do next. I’m literally getting fucking destroyed here.

Counterpoint: How nice will it be without $.99 after every fucking thing that you ever buy ever?

I’m a dinosaur, I run out of DDG browser. Not ideal, but it works for me so i don’t care.

ETA: it’s beehaw, it’s chill.

That HMS article is wild. As someone with moderate hearing loss and raging tinnitus, this would be a dream come true if it ever happens.

3 football pitches*. If it were in yards, then it would be fields.

I feel like as long as the banned speech is extremely specifically defined, I don’t care if they look like martyrs. “The holocaust never happened” is easily defined as holocaust denial, and it’s easy to enforce.

The problems arrive when a law is passed with an ambiguous, poorly defined meaning like “hate speech”. Hate speech can really mean anything someone else doesn’t like.

There’s about a zero percent chance that 5 year old console components cost more today than they did 5 years ago.

Things like that don’t get more expensive, they get cheaper as new tech develops.
