Did some volunteering at some old folks homes and a hospice.

The hospice had people who were literally trapped in their own bodies. Bedridden and unable to move their arms, legs or even speak. They communicated yes/no by monotone grunting(two for yes, one for no.

Person was fully conscious and aware. Just unable to act on the outside world.

(Except it doesn't work if you're moving and only works if you are stationary relative to the earth.)

BC is living on borrowed time. The BC Liberals privatized the maintenance and snow removal.
Saskatchewan is notoriously horrible and Alberta, outside of the big freeways is horrendous.

As an example:

Salesforce has been trying to replace developers with "easy to use tools" for a decade now.

They're no closer than when they started. Yes the new, improved flow builder and omni studio look great initially for the simple little preplanned demos they make. But theyre very slow, unsafe to use and generally are impossible to debug.

As an example: a common use case is: sales guy wants to create an opportunity with a product. They go on how omni studio let's an admin create a set of independently loading pages that let them:
• create the opportunity record, associating it with an existing account number.
• add a selection of products to it.

But what if the account number doesn't exist? It fails. It can't create the account for you, nor prompt you to do it in a modal. The opportunity page only works with the opportunity object.

Also, if the user tries to go back, it doesn't allow them to delete products already added to the opportunity.

Once we get actual AIs that can do context and planning, then our field is in danger. But so long as we're going down the glorified chatbot route, that's not in danger.

You'd have to generate a blacklist and maintain it, but also avoid bad faith mods and admins

The weird thing is that there are already efficient gesture keyboards. It's a weird choice by Apple to not use one.

Saw that review.

Social politeness is already an issue. Imagine the chaos of lots of people using those and answering texts in places like doorways and stairs.

Just stopping wherever they are and chicken pecking at an imaginary keyboard(exactly as he does in the review)

Except discrimination of the Irish(at least) was enshrined in law, just not during the Jim Crow era.

DM:
We're in Waterdeep, so the entire area is in a magical field, so detect magic is useless.

Also you cast a spell and thats a crime in Waterdeep, so you see a Karen of an Elf run off to find the guard

Player: I cast Identify on the apples.

DM: first one is fine, second one is a baby Mimic that attacks your finger as soon as you touch it to cast the spell. What's your AC and Roll Initiative.

They were.

That's why Ontario became a thing. People who just wanted to live as is were forced to flee for their lives as rednecks conned into rebelling by the rich elites threatened their lives.

Irish and Italian people were brutally oppressed and segregated in the 18th and 19th centuries in the US and Canada.

Hell, there is even a famous movie about it.

Not to mention that the brutally oppressed history of the Slavic people going back over a millenia.

Understand that a lot of the negative stuff about Sparta is propaganda coming from Athens.

And equally, the somewhat golden view of Athens is also propaganda from Athens.

In reality they both yeeted babies they deemed unworthy, except that in Athens, you weren't respected if you were old and you were marginally worse off than a (male) slave if you were a woman. And you only had voting rights if you owned land and were male.

Also Sparta won the war because they had help from I believe it was Crete, after Athens tried to take over Crete to get a military advantage on Sparta.

rich people controlled everything.

Fixed that for you. To imply that no white cultures have ever been vicimized is erasure on a colossal scale.

Other way around. Christian extremism predates Islam as a religion.

Its also almost certainly directly responsible for the burning of the Library of Alexandria, and possibly the burning of Rome.

It's also why European folklore and ancient customs don't really exist other than bits and pieces outside of a few places. Christian extremism wiped it out.

Fair.

But even if it is relative to the earth, there would be the question of do you retain your velocity relative to the earth when you teleport in?
So moving pretty much in any modern vehicle would be a reliable way to repaint a surface of the interior with yourself, particularly an aircraft.

However, if it doesn't, then you can reset your momentum every time you pop in or out. In that case, you can reset your movement several times mid-air so when you hit the ground you're going a survivable speed.

Not just car.
The Earth is moving around the Sun.
Which itself is moving inside the Milky Way.
Which itself is moving inside the local cluster.
Which itself is moving inside the Laniakea supercluster.
Which itself is moving inside the universe, probably?
And who the fuck knows if the universe itself is moving.

Depending on a frame of reference of position, you're either still in your car, where your car was, dying in space, or potentially outside the universe itself.

Also that he asked the kitchen to make bad food.

Because the team behind Deep Rock Galactic asked their community to start using it to show demand. And apparently they listened.
