I want the earring stud connected to a personal Ai like in Enders Game. The author (Orson Scott Card) called her Jane.

Of course in the book she was completely connected and insanely intelligent so made him in riches beyond belief while he was doing things like space traveling. Nice side feature.

Met my wife on coffee meets bagel. Used other apps, and had lots of great experiences on all but bumble and shadii (tinder, match, pof, perhaps others).

My suceess got a ton better after one of my first matches helped me take new photos and update my text. She said I wasn't selling myself well, and was 1000% right based on the results.

What do you want to share using the anonymity of this platform?

I don't know enough to even ask a good question.

I recently restarted Borderlands and even though I have multiple characters leveled to the top they make me start at the basic floor to prove I can play or something when I picked a new character. Annoying

Now. What about before?

"640k should be enough for anybody "

There is an effective formula for feedback I like.

1. When you x it has y effect
2. Pause for them to reply, ask questions, or even better - suggest an alternative
3. It would be better if z

In this case, when you make repeat the same joke it loses all humor value and becomes an annoyance.

It would be better if jokes were limited in use, and certainly not repeated.

Whoosh

And some common browsers let you open a top tab, like private browsing, but full tor

Set u a forward from the Gmail address to the new one, and maintain the account at least minimally. As a reference, I have an account created at least 14 years ago still forwarding email. Should be enough time to change the profiles.

If you need to live at 5% of current costs, you'll need go further down the oecd country list than Mexico.

Saw a clip where Jon Stewart asked some politician on the right why it was revered for someone like Trump to pay no taxes or as minimal taxes as possible because they took advantage of the tax loopholes but a lower class person using the system to their benefit to get things like food stamps or take unemployment insurance with somehow weakness. Both of them are just using the system as built to their benefit was the argument.

I think your definition is a fine one. I think the Nuance I was trying to make and perhaps did poorly was that the US already pays a huge amount for healthcare but we pay it to companies to do research that they then use to make profit worldwide. Not to provide services for everyone. It's a matter of priority

Having lived for quite a long time in canada, I think most Americans would love the it.

Semi related - The USA is already socialist if you consider they have more spent per capita on healthcare, and pay for things like roads, police, fire departments, schools and the like. On the last point, they pay all the way through High School and then significantly subsidize universities as well. It's all a matter of degree. In the usa, we socialize on many fronts, and then pay companies more than we would pay to socialize the same service and consider that better. Imo, it's very much not.

Doesn't have to be malicious. Most likely just don't test on it, or at least not a lot.

Hey, a thousand buys a lot of lottery tickets....

I've installed a few for friends and family and so far all of them can't believe they didn't use one before. The install doesn't have to be more than a few minutes, and doesn't have to have anything to do with replacing the seat either. Can just be a hand sprayer for less than $50

A couple come to mind

The guy who ran a porn server from work. Was finally caught when the internet bill was huge and the cio and a tech tracked it through the network to his port. Waited until he walked away for a minute and when he came back found them on hands and knees about to pull the network cable from the server under his desk. Apparently he was making quite a bit off it too. His first words were 'I'm fired, aren't I?'

A woman who lied constantly. She'd claim we built something other than what we were asked to make, and the only defense was to show her the email where she asked for exactly what she got. We learned to document everything with her.

Funny side story. When I joined, all bright eyed and energetic, they assigned me to support her. No warning. I went on and created some software for her, only to get screamed at an blamed for made up reasons. I thought I was about to get fired.... Turns out my team was kind of being assholes too. They all decided not to tell me anything to see if a fresh unbiased person had issues too.

Sounds ideal. Last time I did this in a similar way. I did apply to 2-5 roles a week which were amazing and appealing roles to me though, with the result I got to keep unemployment insurance requirements met, which paid for my very cheap travel expenses overseas. Eventually one of the long shot roles worked out, and I booked flight home to start work.

Getting hit in the balls.
