I don't support high speed rail because it doesn't work well here (check out Brightline in Florida), but these types of problems have been solved elsewhere, including in Democratic countries in Europe.

We used to have such a thing. We called it air pollution. The particle kind. Cleaning up the air didnâ(TM)t work as well as we thought. Iâ(TM)m no detractor, but we havenâ(TM)t realized that it was actually helping us.

We need people to stop worrying about their kids going to school in the dark. I walked through it throughout my schooling. Parents these days drop their kids off.

I mean come on. Linux will be ready for the desktop in 2 years. /s

VHS won in part because Sony wouldn't license pornographic film. It also won because VHS didn't have licensing fees in the first place.

Linux on the desktop failed me years ago. I got tired of running Windows for Office and Linux for a csh and later bash prompt and gcc tools. I got tired of having to find some weird configuration file to make an otherwise mainstream piece of hardware work. Keep in mind, we're talking late 90's early 00's. OSX 10.0 came out (yes, I actually ran 10.0 during the brief period it was out) and they were both wrapped up into one computer. I still needed Windows for games, but I was usually otherwise on my Mac. Since Jony Ive beat OSX (now macos) with an ugly stick, I've mostly been on Windows 10. I'm on ESR for Windows 10 because Jony Ive seems to have loaned his ugly stick to whoever is in charge of Windows 11's design. Also, I can't begin to explain how nice it is to have an operating system that largely hasn't changed every day you log in for years on end. Everything is where I left it and works the same way it did yesterday. And for the record, almost all server development I do is on Linux, so it's never failed me there..

Sure there is. Google's AI just showed me that there's yet another reason for me not to use Google.

Doing something like this as âoepaybackâ for getting fired is stupid from the start. Seriously, where do you think this will actually take you? And a baseline calculation is probably started by calculating wages for 2500 employees for the day who couldnâ(TM)t work while the IT staff tried to work out what happened.

I've tried to replicate a cable stayed bridge so I can make plans of it for a model. I got it to the point where it replicated it perfectly in the first 3D rendering. And then when I tried to make plans off of it, everything went to shit. After everything went to shit, it couldn't revert it to the previous instructions of what it had rendered, it just kept it's current state and forgot about everything else. It couldn't even render the same image again. I'm 3 days in and I still don't have anything useful other than that one single great looking 3D rendering. I've finally reverted to having it take minor measurements from a photo, places where I have to draw lines to get what I want out of it. When I didn't point draw the lines, the angles and lengths were completely off even though they should have been blatantly obvious since the colors stood out quite clearly.

I dunno. I've met some aliens from the planet Zod. They can only travel through space because they were given the technology by another species, the Klorats. They're so inept that they once crashed a space ship into Roswell, NM when they were trying to meet with US military personnel at Area 51. As such, I wouldn't trust a line of code if they wrote it.

My experience with AI has been that it's a tool that gives you a starting point, not a fully worked out solution to your problem. This cuts across multiple fields I've used it for. You need to take the approach verifying everything. And if you don't understand the field well, don't trust until you do.

I've been using these dashes most of my life. For the first time I know they're not just "dashes".

Nah. Pleated Quilty.

I understand your point, but I did forget that T-Mobile just bought them, so up until then that's true. I don't think either of us know how much things have been integrated so far.
