Even running Qwen 3.8 locally can do 90% of what I want.

I don’t think the Army has any nukes. The Navy and the Air Force do.

Except last time I tried to use Doordash and it took them two hours to finally assign a dasher to get my burrito only for them to message me that it was a food truck and that it was closed… It is a real brick and mortar restaurant that I’ve been to multiple times before. The only thing Doordash is good at is dynamic pricing and increasing the price on the menu based on what they think you will pay.

Yeah that works. Especially because you could do it once a week at a farmer’s market and get the really good stuff. I was doing that for a while.

This is why I like living close to a grocery store. I make lots of small trips instead of a big one.

Part of proving a crime is proving “mens rea”, or “criminal mind.” Not all crimes, but most have to prove that you knew what you were doing was wrong and you chose to do it anyway. The mentally ill defense is to say you couldn’t form that criminal intent. That’s an exceptionally hard thing to prove. If she kept trying to check in because she was afraid she was dangerous, that’s already a sign that she knew she was doing things wrong.

Same, but funnily enough I love Curb Your Enthusiasm. Jerry Seinfeld just doesn’t land with me while Larry David does.

With only $160 billion? No.

This was so obvious that anyone paying attention could see this coming a mile away. I’m probably the unpopular opinion, but I think the government should have just not issued any refunds. I would rather the government get funds to potentially use for social welfare than to give it back to businesses. The only problem is that would create an incentive for the government to try it again for another quick payday. Some mechanism would have to be put into place to stop this. Take away the power from the president to issue tarrifs on his own. Which we should probably do anyway.

The bank thing that lead to the eventual collapse was a Clinton thing.

That would be completely wasted on me, but very cool.

I don’t know, I’ve also heard that a few drops of water “opens up” the whiskey. My dad was an alcoholic who loved whiskey. He would order it with a few drops of water. Ice would do the same thing.

You can’t have this all or nothing approach. You’ll never get anything done. This should be celebrated as a step in the right direction and further actions be encouraged.

Lane filtering should be legal everywhere. Like you said, motorcycles accelerate quicker but also it removes the chance of them getting rear ended.

Because it’s counterintuitive. You would think that getting people over early means traffic can just flow easier.

To be fair, often times coders are horrible system admins. Heck Torvalds famously runs Fedora because he found installing Debian too confusing.

The word gig is far older than the term “gig economy”. But I’m also sure strippers have been around a lot longer than even that.

Why would they do that? I’m pretty sure they get those benefits for life.

We require pilots to retire at the age of 65. If they’re not fit to fly a plane, why would they be fit to run a country?
