What a ridiculous thing to start throwing shade about. You’re there with a group and the group is spending money. I always see people just having water or soda out with a drinking group. Bars even give that out free sometimes, for a designated driver situation. If anything I would guess she has an insecurity about going out drinking at the bar and needs you to be doing the same or else she thinks it makes her look bad.

A supercomputer capable of mimicking the human brain is set to be activated in 2024. The DeepSouth system, developed by researchers at the International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems, uses spiking neural networks to efficiently emulate large networks of neurons, rivaling the rate of operations in the human brain.

What did the swell setting do?

I think it markets to our perception of Mexican food. And I know Mexican people who enjoy Chipotle. But I would be surprised to learn if it is truly traditional Mexican food.

Yeah I have no idea what the point of this video was. Socialists? This is just cringissimo.

Soul Food is easy enough to replace, will have to look around for the Pitch Fork though. Maybe TC brainwave or EQD rainbow machine.

I use non-antiperspirant deodorant. I got tired of the aluminum in antiperspirant staining my shirts and clumping up, then I learned that the aluminum works by being an irritant that causes an allergic swelling that blocks your sweat glands. That all sounds pretty gross to me. I might re-apply deodorant during the day if I’ve been sweating, or put on some fresh clothes or even take a light shower.

baronvonj,
@baronvonj@lemmy.world avatar

Thank you correcting my understanding! The part I find gross though is less the mechanism and more the result: that all the sweat my body is making is just stuck in the glands. If the anti-perspirant was simply absorbing the sweat as it comes out of the pores, then I would feel different about it.

Ah, yeah. The image had me thinking there was some other meaning for FOSS I didn’t know about.

The bottle of goop, with the board pre-markednfor where to goop it, is such a nice touch.

@baronvonj@lemmy.world avatar

The original Klon had goop slathered all over the circuit so nobody could analyse it. The goop here is just part of the joke about it being a Klon but not a Klon.

That’s a decision you have to make along with your partner(s).

@baronvonj@lemmy.world avatar

Antitranspirant? 🤣

I went the other way and use non-antiperspirant deodorant, once I learned the anti-perspirant is aluminum flakes that cause an allergic swelling to close up your sweat glands (at least it explained all the glitter stains in the armpits of my shirts).

I use whatever soap The Baroness buys.

Viking Revolution sandalwood beard wash and consitioner.

Old spice aqua reef deodorant.

Nice! How long have you been building? I’ve been tempted to try some Stew Mac kits.

What else have you built?

Nice. Which were you happiest with?

OP already mentioned other enumerated rights were “balanced against other responsibilities.” So given there’s precedent for qualifying these constitutional rights, why not with gun ownership too?

baronvonj,
@baronvonj@lemmy.world avatar

Wasn’t intended as argument, just clarification that I thought you were both saying the same thing (that there’s already restrictions on our consititutional rights).

Seriously, I almost never navigate the menu anymore. I hit the windows key on my keyboard and start type the app name, or setting I want to change, then hit enter when the autocomplete is right. Gmail came along with labels replacing folders, then iTunes and iPhoto organizing your media by its metadata. I would hate going back to having to organize folders and menus again.

Customers cancelling over the shrinkflation, and leaving the feedback as to why you’re cancelling, is really the only thing that companies will respond to. Because of their fiduciary responsibility to their share holders, their share price is all that drives these decisions.

I can’t begin to express how many times I got side-tracked telling myself how attentive I was going to be, and losing like 15 minutes of the lecture to that jnternal pep talk.

Sounds toasty. Could be my phone speakers, but I didn’t hear much difference in the small EQ knob changes. It was pretty evident in the big sweeps though.

The unsubscribe and resubscribe trick hadn’t worked for me at that time

Interesting. It didn’t always work the first time (which could mean unsub/sub/refresh like 10 times in a row), but coming back every few hours to try again I don’t think it ever took more than a day to get it resolved for me.

The table of products in the article wasn’t really clear to me. Here’s a link from FDA directly

fda.gov/…/fda-warns-consumers-not-purchase-or-use…

Key takeaway is:

These products are marketed under the following brands:

  • CVS Health
  • Leader (Cardinal Health)
  • Rugby (Cardinal Health)
  • Rite Aid
  • Target Up&Up
  • Velocity Pharma

Elon Musk gives X employees one year to replace your bank - ‘You won’t need a bank account... it would blow my mind if we don’t have that rolled out by the end of next year.’ (www.theverge.com)

“If it involves money. It’ll be on our platform. Money or securities or whatever. So, it’s not just like send $20 to my friend. I’m talking about, like, you won’t need a bank account.”...

yeah that seems the most plausible explanation to me at this point.

baronvonj,
@baronvonj@lemmy.world avatar

Can’t argue with you on that.

Maybe the Tom Delay Echo Chamber?

@baronvonj@lemmy.world avatar

We’ll just put a happy little echo in right here.

This procedure is banned in the US. Why is it a hot topic in fight over Ohio's abortion amendment? (apnews.com)

In ads, debates and public statements, the opposition campaign and top Republicans have increasingly been referencing “partial-birth abortions” as an imminent threat if voters approve the constitutional amendment on Nov. 7. “Partial-birth abortion” is a non-medical term for a procedure known as dilation and extraction,...

baronvonj,
@baronvonj@lemmy.world avatar

The ban itself is just another Cruelty Is The Point dog whistle. There are alternative procedures to use in the same situations, such as when they basically dismember the fetus in utero and extract the pieces, but they’re more dangerous to the patient. So the ban doesn’t actually prevent an abortion from taking place, just more likely to have complications.
