Betteridge’s law of headlines, for once, is wrong.

“Make sure to march in lockstep, boys. And can you kick the feet up a bit higher”

Doesn’t matter. If he leaves now, people will forget about his role soon enough, Tesla stock will go up, and in a quarter or two it’ll be back to the status quo, him being a centibillionaire but with the government dismantled. He wins. He needs to be constantly called to account and vilified and dealing with his companies needs to become synonymous with being a traitor.

I’m offended. President Camacho wanted the best for his people, and the protagonist wasn’t a buffoon.

I already have tickets for this, but I use the phone as a music player, and when using Siri it’s exceptionally bad at handling albums/bands with other languages, as it tries to convert the foreign words to English, then search. Double metaphone exists, y’all. :)

Could they also add a way to say “play album X”? 50/50 it will play artist X instead of album X. And if I say play album X by artist Y, it’ll either play that artist, that album by that artist, or a different album with the right name.

Thanks for doing all this!

One potential issue is that you have no idea what they’re selling from that (I assume that’s part of the business model). But in general, there’s weirder stuff out there - just make sure that whenever it’s “choose friend or AI”, choose friend.

Yup. I desperately wanted Apple to support the PowerPc clones back in the 90s, and there are still times I wish that they were more open, but they have their place.

Duck photography is hard?!

Telegram. Too on the nose?

Tree fitty? Damn you Loch Ness monster!

I mean, if they had good mesh WiFi capabilities then it’d be an easy way to steal some market share from TPlink and Google and the like. “Just buy a HomePod AND you get these other benefits”.

Never seen that before, you have my interest! Any idea what brand this is?

Poit!

“Well, I think so, Brain, but if they called them sad meals nobody would buy them“

Unsure why you got downvoted. Same experience here. I already script and program, sometimes I just want stuff that’s stable.

Beta? Could it be making a chart from the data provided? How did you get it to provide that? Screenshot of data then clicking the 3 lines? That could be freaking cool if you’re asking for it.

God yes. Did 1 cruise and literally saw the Sistine Chapel, the Colosseum, Michelangelo’s David, walked around in Pompeii, scaled a volcano, saw where the Olympics started, the Parthenon, amazing art (Birth of Venus just to name another), incredible food, incredible people. Spent months planning it, ton of pics, and now make some “new” dishes all the time.

OP: meds and a therapist. Meds to fix the chemistry, therapist to teach you how to live life happily.

I wish that there was some sort of equivalent of Reddit gold… That is a fantastic comment, with a ton of useful advice. OP cooks his own food, a better way to find new food and things you’ve never come across otherwise, is by traveling. It really does broaden the mind, gives you a better perspective on things,… But Mr. ININ, I hope the best for you. You did some awesome stuff and can’t anymore. I feel your pain.

Op: see the world. Get the shittiest inside cabin you can on a cruise ship that goes to a bunch of different countries. Think of it like a sampler pack of that part of the world. If you see something that strikes you fancy, plan to go back. Plan all the things you want to do or see. Look on some guides online. If you don’t knowwhat to do with the money, you can’t take it with you, go do something with it.

Sorry. I’m a horrible person and see the worst. Rise above and make it awesome! (Just don’t call the mods the krewe or something. ;)
