Chicken prices at U.S. grocery stores have hit record highs and should stay elevated as Tyson Foods and other companies dial back poultry production to boost margins while inflation-weary shoppers buy chicken instead of beef and pork....
I’m looking for a way to cover the cameras when I’m not using them. So far the best thing I can think of is a case with sliding covers on it but I don’t know if that even exists. Stickers might also be a good solution.
Hey everyone. I made a casual survey to see if people can tell the difference between human-made and AI generated art. Any responses would be appreciated, I’m curious to see how accurately people can tell the difference (especially those familiar with AI image generation)
Police in eastern Pakistan have smashed an illegal organ harvesting ring, arresting eight people for surgically removing kidneys from hundreds of patients for wealthy people needing a transplant, authorities said Monday....
This is pretty common all over Asia. Sometimes they are up front and offer cash but it’s fractions of what they are making on the sale like $500 for the kidney.

Just get a VPN and torrent like normal in the 2000s. Nothing has changed. Seeding is not really a big deal anymore because everyone’s internet speeds are so fast.
my calculus teacher did little senior year jokey biographies of people as a big powerpoint on the last day. he was well loved, venerable, yet also slightly … odd. sharp, but vaguely weird. he separated people into basically informal friend groups [with multiple people on the same slide] and people who were the sort of weird...
Probably just routine cleansing. You can’t let anyone stay in such high power in the military in these types of countries. That way they cant consolidate power against the regime.
A family member of mine in Germany is looking for a laptop in the 100-200€ price range. It would be okay to buy used and it shouldn’t be one of those modern Celeron laptops. It should still have a fairly slim design and a processor at least good enough to run Minecraft at low settings with ~30fps on Linux. Is this even a...
You can get Lenovo x1 carbon pretty cheap with pretty high end cpu on ebay. Don’t know if it can handle Minecraft though. Absolutely nothing with a discreet graphics card will fall into your price range. I would recommend your relative keep saving until they can spend a little more.
Absolutely not. The carbon is already very slim. It really sounds like they want a MacBook which we both know is not gonna happen for 200. Your relative needs to come to grips with the reality of their budget or just keep saving. Best time to buy is after Christmas when people get new shit and sell their old stuff.
That’s over. Just let it go. It’s never going back in the bottle and artists will never see a penny from ai that trained their art. It’s not fair but life isn’t fair.
Looks like he also plays the Niles super stuffy character too. Not a great change. While he was snooty in the old one his snootyness was casual because Niles did the heavy lifting and his live in dad simply wouldn’t have it.
I pirate the shit out of torrents on Google VPN for years no problems. Spectrum kept hassling me getting caught twice in one month. Switched to Google and never got bothered again. They don’t throttle torrents either.

All colleges need to ban students from taking on student loans for any degree they can’t prove their grads got jobs in that field. If you’re paying cash go for a art degree.
Yeah I did actually read it, he said export was 30 to 40% of his business and sending it all over the eu was a lot of paperwork. What he should have done is found a distributor one set of paperwork to get his product into the distribution warehouse then they handle the rest and deliver all over the eu to his existing clients for a fee. That was the only part he didn’t wanna do the rest of the shit you listed affects all other industry in the UK it’s not special to this guy or to beer. You raise your prices to cover costs.
