That just means the law in question is the Constitution, which can also be amended.

Noel Phillips (primarily an aviation/airline YouTuber) had an episode where he went there! https://youtu.be/KbZ5aqCjiwo

I like humans. They’re pretty neat. My friends and family are particularly awesome. The site I’ve used to interact with them (rhymes with Schmacebook) has largely pivoted to content from “people” I’ve never heard of (usually about the same few topics) and yes, AI slop. Even groups where people ask for help will inevitably have people saying “oh, I talked with the clanker about this because clearly you can’t do that and here’s what it said…”

I’ve resisted posting on Reddit, but honestly I feel like Lemmy is sorely missing social posts about people’s day to day in factor of memes and stuff. It has its place, but I’m looking for a mix of things.

That gif could have been easier on all of us if it were just a damn list. Kind of like those reddit posts where a line graph gets turned into a minute-long video with unnecessarily dramatic music when the last frame tells the story just as easily.

May this be the beginning of the end, or at least the end of the beginning. Quite possibly with a bubble burst so we can move on from the era of slop (am I being too optimistic?)

But how should a singer who produces an album, or an author who writes a book, or whatever be compensated? Its popularity isn’t really known until after it’s published, it’s not really fair for a damn good writer to get paid the same as someone who produces slop.

My egg salad sandwich at a Colorado courthouse cafeteria yesterday did not have olives in it. I’m not sure I’ve seen that before. But I could totally see it, especially since I’ve seen an olive since garnish on a deviled egg which is basically egg salad with the white as a boat for the rest. That was probably in the Midwest

Not sure if it’s relevant here, but there are 9 airports in 8 Canadian cities (Toronto has two) with US customs preclearance. That is, you clear US customs in Canada and arrive like a domestic flight. The reverse does not exist (I believe Canada has the option to but US airports don’t generally have the volume of Canadian flights to justify it). If those ICE offices are related to those US facilities, (if…) it would make some sense.

Another thing to check, do you pre-warm the bottle? If not, it will absorb the heat of (ie, cool down) the coffee as soon as you pour it in. But if you get scalding hot water from your faucet or a kettle, pour it in, wait a minute, and dump it you will have a warm bottle that won’t feel the need to take as much heat from the coffee.

Oh good, as long as they’re safe!

Don’t forget about Tobler’s first law of geography.

Everything is related to everything else, but near things are more related than distant things

Cultural patterns will generally follow migration of people, which will largely be localized, but of course there are exceptions in which case you can get some interesting blends.

And when it all crumbles within the first year, what will happen to the billions of dollars charged for admission?

I am honestly pleasantly surprised at everything the industry came up with in that generation, in hindsight. Maybe those kinds of games were a little overrepresented, but you still had Super Mario 64, Pilot wings, Tony Hawk Pro Skater, Smash Bros (not fully 3D but that may be a good thing from a game play aspect), two Zelda masterpieces, Mario Party, some solid wrestling games, and a few Final Fantasy games (I never played them but I don’t think they’re shooters and definitely not racing games)

There were some flopped consoles just prior to the N64/PS1 like the Saturn and Atari Jaguar that probably helped the industry figure out what doesn’t work well in 3D gaming. Maybe they still had some stuff to figure out, but that was a pretty good era IMO.

Lately I’ve been watching Noel Phillips videos on YouTube. He’s an airline geek (as am I) and has been to some really unique places - some are interesting places on different continent, some just random remote airports in the middle of American nowhere.

“thank you?”

Let’s be honest: if he had won it (bear with me) it would have emboldened him to do whatever he wanted to do in the name of being a peaceful genius.

Whats ur favorite wine and cheese flavorz?

twitch

Anyway, I want to like red wine more than I do, but white wine is my preference. Not too sweet, not too dry. Pinot grigio is great.

As for cheese, I always check the fancy cheese markdowns to try new things. My favorites are gooey like brie, but brie itself isn’t very flavorful for my liking. I’ve had one that was a mix of cow and goat milk, while still being very soft, and it was fantastic. Another favorite is tallegio, which is like a really soft cheddar with a thin edible rind and notes of mushroom flavor.

Mozzarella is always a favorite, but is gotta be dressed up a bit. My favorites are marinated, burrata (fresh ball with a creamy cheese filling), or wrapped with prosciutto 😋

You really think that would’ve been her cause had the 2024 election gone a different way?

Yeah, she believes in her cause far more than a shiny metal disk, which if given up the rest of the world will know what happened. Not like she was motivated by it, and it’s the only card she really has when dealing with the US military. Certainly not worth calling her a spineless… That.
