Not that it really matters in this case, but AI art just seems inconsistent in silly ways. That girls shirt changes each frame, her hair gets more braided, and the 3rd frame has 2 left hands. I guess at first glance you don't really notice, but it's not hard to spot and it hurts my brain once I do.

They can use epubs for several months now. It's been incredibly nice but to have to convert books anymore.

Sounds like The Talos Principle. Great puzzle game that comes close to scratching the Portal itch.

It's been great so far, but it's my first EV so comparisons are difficult. It checked all the major boxes I was looking for, particularly AWD and range close to 300mi. It has a lot of creature comforts that were an upgrade from the Impreza I had previously, but nothing you can't get in an ICE; heated steering and seats, remote climate control, and other tech upgrades.

If you like buttons and knobs then you might not like the Ariya; they went for a very minimalist design and most controls are on the touch screen. That hasn't been too much of an issue for me.

The plus models with eForce are plenty quick (scared the shit out of my wife the first time we gunned it down the freeway). It is heavy though, as one would expect. Overall, for the price point it's a solid choice if you want something more like an SUV than the ioniq 5 or the EV6. The overall build quality seems quite good (Hyundai and Kia appears just felt a little flimsy to me). I am quite happy with it so far.

I just got the Ariya which has active cooling. I think the leaf still doesn't though.

It's gonna depend on how each state phrases the law. It just became legal in Minnesota and the law specifically states that employers cannot discriminate against employees who test positive on a drug test, and employers would have to prove it was used on the job to terminate an employee.

Other states might leave provisions like that out, on purpose or otherwise.

Not likely. There is no effective organizational institution for doctors in the US. The AMA is not a great forum for physician organization and it's done a pretty poor job so far at advocating for any real change in our health systems. There are other, smaller organizations that have some traction but not enough to make any large, lastinhg impacts at this time.

I don't know much about the Dominican health system but I'd wager it's quite different than the US. Which physicians would go on strike here? The surgical specialists making $400-800k a year? Not likely. The primary care doctors who would be painted as villains that abandoned their patients by striking (not to mention they still make decent money)?

Physicians in the US certainly advocate for system reform, but meaningful change is not going to come from drastic, large organizational moves such as a doctor's strike anytime soon.

I've been sending books to my Kindle email address for over a decade and never had an issue. Now that it supports epub it's even easier.

Calling this a blow to Biden is a big stretch. What a garbage click bait headline.
