I don't mind onions when they're used as a real ingredient. French onion soup, stir-fry, onion rings, all good. Onions also make decent filler in soup and curry, but I think the only soup I've had without onion is cheese & broccoli. Every ground meat I've seen uses onions as filler, so every burger, nearly every taco, most sausages, every lasagna, every spring roll, all have that onion taste.
If leeks were used like this, I'd probably hate them too.
It also argues that municipalities create far too much parking space, reducing the amount of useable area in cities. This is one big reason why most US and Canadian city centers are dying, as more downtown plots are dedicated to parking, and new plots need a crazy amount parking.
New constructions all have huge parking lots like big box stores and fast food islands, surrounded by a sea of pavement. The lower density reduces propery taxes (as they're usually calculated by the number of properties, not the used land area), and increases the need for a vehicle to reach locations.
Free parking in general may help to keep things accessible to everyone (with a car), but the amount of parking is choking everyone out and increasing reliance on car manufacturers and roadwork companies.
That suggests we can change the superposition collapse distance by changing how much were observing. By measuring the proportion of change as we turn on or off large-scale observation systems, we can calculate how much of the universe is being loaded by other users. We can finally start solving the drake equation!
I could see Carney have several long term plans that involve appearing to appease US admin. Unfortunately, I doubt those long term plans are good for Canadians, so much as donors.
Genes aren't the only inherited trait. Environment, wealth, culture, and ideas are also roughly passed down to offspring, but these can't modify the genome, only the gene expression.
Of course it gets way more complex as these things do change fitness which does apply evolutionary pressure to the genome, but you can't get bigger muscle genes by working out.
That is to say, there are some Lamarckian effects, but it's all by Darwinian mechanics.
Hundreds of other things? I just said 15 things!
There's definitely tab rot though, and coming back to an area often sees half of the tabs cleared before continuing. I can't imagine that kind of turnover with bookmarks though, especially with how comparatively clunky removing bookmarks is.
Boockmarks don't updated themselves either, so keeping my place in a story or post list is way harder. Tabs also maintain physical correlations, with a parent tab closing all children when closed, and staying near where you use them. Bookmarks need to be explicitly organized and updated, taking several clicks for each, instead of being organized and updated just by using them.
How often are tabs processed? Most tabs get closed before they're a week old, some groups are reused every week --TTRPG references mostly-- currently using ~15 tabs: 5 indexes, 2 character sheets, 5 common references, and whatever weird stuff was relevant last session
Other groups are used or closed as projects are worked on: 6 tabs for Factorio calculators, ~10 tabs for exoplanet research for worldbuilding, ~20 game tutorials (these could probably be bookmarks), ~15 wikis for the various games I've played in the last few months (half could be bookmarks), ~10 tabs for setting up my new phone (these will be closed soon), 5 tabs I just closed because I stopped needing them, ~5 youtube series I listen to while I work, as the topic strikes me, ~15 individual videos I'll probably watch in the next few weeks (several are 2+ hours long), ~15 music tabs of either specific songs or topics I listen to as the fancy strikes me, ~20 tabs of bugs and issues I've been having (which will get cleared when I resolve them or stop caring), ~20 tabs of research for a work project (15 will probably be closed immediately)(should probably not be in my personal browser), ~10 tabs of stuff I just looked up in the last couple of days and haven't closed yet, And probably 10 aspirational tabs of stuff I'd like to get to in the future, but probably won't (definitely won't if they're bookmarks).
I've touched ~80% in the last 3 months, and ~50% this month, although my phone has a lot more old aspirational tabs.
When it comes to a list building up, what's the difference between old tabs and old bookmarks anyway? Neither are using any resources. A link wouldn't be and more or less important as a bookmark than a tab.
I quite like this one.
No, some items have a dozen tabs associated, and others are recurring tasks.
I only have maybe 15 topics in my tabs, half are waiting on something else to be resolved, and a sixth are videos to be watched.
Tabs are part checklist. If I use bookmarks, they go out of siht, out of mind. As tabs there's a reminder to resolve the topic.
Feels like low-rated chess, where you can distract your opponent by making a move on the other side of the board. Just by mentioning mispronunciations, people were attracted to them.
Alternatively, many of them might be bots that didn't understand the "prompt".
Disagree, one of the reasons I'm an onion hater is precisely because they're in flipping everything. Anything savoury is likely to have that pervasive thickness that chases any other flavour out.
Quick, someone make a heavier Honda Accord and destroy the universe!
Moonbase Alpha has DECTalk as text to speech, and so in-game chat is spoken out by DECTalk. Anything stupid is immediately 10x funnier when a robot says it earnestly, especially when that robot has to interpret it.
AEIOU repeating is the famous example, and spawned Moonbase Alpha covers of songs and similar text to speech implementations (like in R.E.P.O.).
Jagmeet was a nice enough person, but his communication never seemed to be about making changes, only criticising the other parties. It's possible I missed the more constructive messages, but the constant tearing down in political messaging is why I don't ingest much of it. NDP would also be my choice (outside of a spoiler situation), but the default answer isn't very inspiring.
FPTP isn't the only fucked up voting issue we have though, as the vote for leader also affected so many local representatives, and I thing that's where the NDP is currently strongest. Losing local reps is a sad price for opposing a national lunatic.
I've thoughs about similar restrictions to bring high-level politicians down to Earth. Hard limits to effective income from all sources of perhaps 2.5x minimum wage. Six months of consecutive retail or food service work.
There is a silver lining in giving the NDP a wake-up call. Hopefully they can manage to have an actionable platform soon.
It's one of a few things generative AI is legitimately good at.
Most "untoward" things become more well known from their euphemisms. This is just a rare non-sex case.
And adding more fuel to a fire make it burn hotter and faster. Largers stars die faster, so more fuel will reduce the lifespan.
