I got 0.99% on my car loan. Maybe you are not looking hard enough.

Two side by side 3-zone fridges might get you close if you have the cash and the space. Hell if you are fantasizing anyway aim big and go for the seven bespoke fridges. To match the number of doors on your oven.

It is pretty good for AI.

It is the same sketchy Chinese camera it was before.

I recently replaced my toaster oven because the mechanical timer knob was becoming quite variable and inaccurate to the point I needed to set a backup timer on my phone. This is the very same reason I replaced my previous toaster oven as well, so this time I got one with a digital timer. I'm expecting it to be more reliable, but only time will tell (no pun intended).

No internet of course, will be a cold day in hell I put my appliances on the internet.

You do still need some.

There are just too many things to be outraged about these days. I can either be a tiny bit outraged at a whole bunch of things, or I can be really outraged at a handful of things and simply not care about the rest. My personal negativity setting does not go high enough to be really outraged about everything.

And either way, this one is definitely low on my list.

Corals have been around for 500,000,000 years. They have had worse than anything we can throw at them. They will be laughing at us when we are long gone. Well maybe not the laughing part, but they will indeed still be here when we are long gone.

Did the cat survive?

I live in a Canadian city with cold winters. In the past, the transit system built heated shelters for people to wait for the bus in heavily trafficked areas. These are now all unintentional homeless shelters. They won't kick the people living in them out because that would be racist/colonial/insensitive/etc., so if you are waiting for the bus you will almost certainly be doing it in the cold and wet.

Maybe they could use the internet or something.

Yeah this would be in keeping with the whole getting away from the city thing. I also know people who own cars but bike and take transit most places. Owning a basic car you don't drive much is not a huge expense for a lot of people, much less so than most boats.

I have no idea about Japan but I live in the city and I can drive for an hour and be far enough from civilization that if I don't return I might never be found. Indeed unless you consider an urban park to be adequate, a car - whether owned, borrowed, or rented - will get you much closer to actual wilderness than transit ever will. Ironically car centric culture can actually get people closer to nature, should they choose to do so.

Crayons FTW!

Probably but it is far from linear. It should not be hard to find people who don't exercise with good dental heath, and vice versa. Certainly good studies should try to control for such things, and there have been a lot of studies. Anyway I think the point was the bacteria are obviously a potential physiological and not socioeconomic link. Clearly more study is warranted.

I'm sure they could have found plenty of folks on the Night Train if they tried.
