One can dream, but I do think that any channel that uses public airwaves should be fined for any lie it tells and have its broadcast license revoked over a certain number. Outright lies are far worse than bias.

It might also explain why italian is 'full duplex'... 2 italians can talk to each others simultaneously (and follow each other). I've seen it happen numerous time and also when you have a group of italians there's typically 60% of them talking at the same time. I suspect that's because the language is consonant-vowel-consonant-vowel-consonant-vowel-... so it falls into a rhythm and they can sync.

I *think* he means that they put so much whitener on them that they appear an unnatural shade of bright blue. He's got a point. Related to this american habit of always showing teeth while smiling; I don't even know how long they train for that in front of a mirror, I find it impossible.

Then why don't they see dentists ? I was just in the UK for a month and the 'english bad teeth' meme is real. Even saw a stunning looking girl that had all crooked teeth, to the point that I had to refrain from laughing in surprise when we talked.

My bank still employ local people on the phone. And that area has a very peculiar accent, which I used to have too. That's how I know it's legitimate ! And it came in handy recently when I got a scam attempt call. The first thing that tipped me off was the 'fast talker with wrong accent' guy on the phone before I lead him on a wild goose chase of bank app with wrong button choices every time...

Logic is a systematic method of coming to the wrong conclusion with confidence.

So they use an AI to convert a useful stackoverflow one-liner into a 20min video... and you use an AI to extract only the useful stuff. That's all terribly efficient, yeah. The future is stupid.

Hence the rub: if I already know what I'm doing, I don't really need it, even if it saves a bit of time. On the other hand I tried several times to use it for things I knew nothing about (a new communication protocol, a very obscure bash add-on, a complex set of mixed-language libraries never meant to work together, etc...) and I got absolutely nowhere: all the code generated didn't work, wasn't even relevant and a big waste of time overall. I couldn't even coax it to give me even starting points.

Is there a way to edit the hosts file on Android?

The A pillar should be narrower than 80% of drivers eye distances, allowing to see "through" it thanks to parallax. In my car it's very thick and I have to move my head from side to side whenever I'm in a curve.

Yeah, and those are all 20yo movies at least.

Yeah, I just saw a movie yesterday where there was some (very mild) tits and nudity and serious theme of sleeping with other people and I was like... how long ago was it that I saw a tit in a movie ? It seems nudity was in every movie (even unrelated ones) a couple decades ago, and now it's all "hide sexual thoughts and body parts or the evangelicals will become incensed..."

For info, the movie was Le semeur and it's okay but not great.

They kept moving employees around. I've met the CEO in question and to this day he's sure he was in his good right to do this. What an asshole.

Weird, I've had the opposite experience: stable as fuck. The machine I'm typing this on was 1st installed with Kubuntu in... 2003 I think. It's gone through every non-LTS upgrade. I've changed the system HD several times, cloning it to bigger ones, then cloning it to SSD. I've also changed the machine thrice: from a powerful tower, I've split it to a headless server and a laptop which got updated once more. There were a few hitches (KDE4 to 5 was a pain in the ass for 2 years, Kmail was a bug ridden piece of shit) but never had to reinstall from scratch. I even went Kubuntu -> Neon and then back to Kubuntu for a few years with command line magic.

I wrote the software for the 2 camera testers (one for integration of the CCDs, one for production) but... I don't remember ! I finished the soft 2 years ago. Anyway, it's B&W and probably 16 bits, but I'm not sure, I'd have to dig in the specs I have somewhere. The filter changer is some kind of crazy robot contraption because the filters are 2 meters in diameter, fragile as fuck and so expensive there's no duplicate. The camera CCD took years to assemble from individual CCDs.
