I’m lucky enough to have a WinCo nearby, but I’m not sure how widespread they are

Ah I have to use Windows for work and that’s the source of most of my compression needs. Thanks for the info though, I’ll look into this

In that case, which file type would you recommend?

I love that feeling

That’s such a cool concept. Living art!

I work nights with 2 other guys. One of them is cool and seems to be a bit introverted, but we’re both into sports so we’ll watch games the first few hours and chat intermittently. The other guy openly hates sports, but loves “shooting the shit”, which he understands to mean him going on a fringe political rant or into way too much detail over some random shit he saw on YouTube… Luckily work gave us headsets with ANC, so me and the cool guy just headset up once the games are over and live in silence on the slow nights

AI is going to start writing entire fake research papers and books written by fake authors, just so it can be cited as a source for a high school kid using it to cheat on a 500 word essay.

The thing is china is great at reverse engineering things, but not great at manufacturing things to the spec needed at this precision. There’s literally one company on earth that supplies optics manufactured at this level of precision (Zeiss), who have spent decades to get where they are. Even if China has the design technology, they would still be far behind in the manufacturing if they’re trying to make their own optics.

If only they had reliable utilities. Samsung’s fab in Austin got shut down for a few weeks from ice-mageddon. Messed them up enough that they threatened to leave if Texas didn’t give them something to make up for it.

Trying to give off “loveable idiot” vibes

How can you tell?

How do you feel about peanut butter and jelly sandwiches?

Mine are mostly trying to remember if I used shampoo or body wash yet because I just woke up and my brain is still booting

If you read the article, they had just installed a new water heater and did the ventilation wrong. There were also a few instances through the course of the day where the detectors were triggered and handled. There was a lot of negligence from the vendor that installed the ventilation and especially the maintenance that did not consider the recent work that had been done and assumed that all the detectors were suddenly faulty at the same time.

Username checks out. Dry/wet town/county lines are a very common experience there

Good luck! Fingers crossed

Also if it uses light!

Given the context of a previous conversation, I would. This is a very elaborate long con OP

Good to see they’re still around
