and the boys were already ten and eleven years old when I entered their life
I hope you got a good relationship with them! My son can't even talk yet. So, right now, he's just this cute thing that runs around and causes trou^H^H^H^Hgood things to happen.
Well, some of that is for classes for people who can't see that default 3-pixel wide scrollbar on Windows 11 in high contrast dark mode.
Fair. Just making fun of Windows 11.
Yeah, you're blessed to have one of each. Until they start conspiring against you, which you KNOW is going to happen.
ha!
Hopefully we'll raise them better than that. And let them see us honoring our parents.
You charge to "upgrade" to Windows 11? How evil are you?
For all my pro-life ramblings, we were granted only one child.
Precious. I feel bad you couldn't have more though. G-d has been very generous to us.
Keeping up with two toddlers after age 50 can't be easy.
And yet i wouldn't trade it for anything! Thank G-d, we have a lot of help. Especially, when some neighboring girls come by to take our son for a walk. G-d bless them all.
I hope the airlines lose and have to spend billions of dollars.
The customers would only get a small amount and the lawyers for the plaintiffs get the other billions but at least the airlines would be out an amount that makes them think next time.
So, my son is around 20 pounds now. At my age, that's heavy. My left shoulder became sore from holding all the time he wanted to be held. So sore, i slept on my right side the last few nights just so it wouldn't hurt. But not only that, my daughter just had her one-month checkup and is at 7lb 9oz. She's also getting heavy. Sometimes, i want to hold her all day, but after a few minutes, i have to give up. She lying on my right shoulder as i type this right now.
Seen Youtube lately? I just watched a video on how to make nitroglycerin. Stuff like this has been available for over a decade.
Back in the days that home solar systems still mostly used lead-acid batteries - which in some cases of degradation could be repaired, at least partially, if you had some good strong and reasonably pure sulfuric acid - I viewed a YouTube video on how to make it. (From epsom salts by electrolysis using a flowerpot and some carbon rods from old large dry cells).
For months afterward YouTube "suggested" I'd be interested in videos from a bunch of Islamic religious leaders . (This while people were wondering how Islamic Terrorists were using the Internet to recruit among high-school out-group nerds.)
Software - AI and otherwise - often creates unintended consequences. B-)
It would only be a territory. hehe
Unfortunately its democratic loss would make the US even more fascist.
And it would confuse them about how the PM is elected, or more accurately not elected but more appointed-ish.
It's kind of surprising it isn't all squealing nonsense.
Give it a little more time. B-b
We had a lab known to be unsafe. A lab known to be performing gain of function on the specific type of virus that emerged in public. We have a lab in close proximity to the market where the outbreak was traced back to.
We also had rumors that low-paid lab techs supplemented their income by selling test animals they'd been ordered to destroy to the nearby wet market.
So current AI training procedures - which amount to "read all the internet you can" - fall for astroturf campaigns. Why am I not surprised?
There's also the "Detox" exercise of leaving your phone at home. and only taking it with you when it's absolutely necessary for example to work if you have to use a third factor authentication application to get into your computer)
Just switch on "airplane mode". No incoming calls, message notifications, or app push crud. (If you've got any apps, other than alarm/calendar notices for your schedule reminders which YOU set up, that poke brain-derailng messages at you, disable (or delete) them.)
Then get into the habit of not going to it for anything non-essential while in this mode.
Now you can use it for a key, or wallet, or whatever, if you must, without it constantly killing your attention span with interruptions. Yet you can always turn it back on to make a call, or in the timeslot you reserved for handling this trivia.
No incoming calls, though. (What a relief: No phone spammers!)
I used this a few times. I'm old fogey, though not an old fogey, and won't use SMS.
Does anyone know any replacements for people that don't see email?
I want to see these studies.
Did you just come up with gibberish that left-wingers supposedly say or have you seen real papers in real journals?
For every "bad" study you find I will find a study that right-siders do that is bad as well.
And in any case, what R&D would you want to invest in?
Was it Tom Jeff who said we need a revolution every 20 years or so.
I think we need the monarchy back.
King Charles III is much better than the leaders here.
Actually King George III is better than the leaders here.
There is one scientist later on in the first part who does say they couldn't rule out someone who may have been infected at the lab visiting the market and starting the ball rolling, but they also say there is no evidence to back this up. Considering the number of people who ride that line each day, if there was a sick person from the lab spreading their infection, there should have been far more people getting sick all over the place. That didn't happen. The earliest known infections were all clustered around the market.
It doesn't have to have been an infected human. An infected experimental animal - or a pest animal that had come into contact with lab animals or materials - could have been an initial vector.
For some time stories have circulated that low-paid lab techies at the Wuhan lab had been known to supplement their income by taking experimental animals they had been ordered to kill and dispose of safely and instead sell them at the wet market.
The Tao is like a stack: the data changes but not the structure. the more you use it, the deeper it becomes; the more you talk of it, the less you understand.
