This all sounded great until the word "catheter"!

!!!

then I crossed my legs, and knocked my computer on the floor.

What we need is a 2nd study, using 400 students, separated into four groups:
1. Using Google ONLY by looking at the 3rd page of results (the first two pages are now taken up with Gemini AI and targeted advertising).
2. Using ChatGPT Only.
3. Using inventory computers in a large metropolitan library
4. Using old fashioned card catalogs and books.

I wonder if we chose a significantly esoteric subject, with a 100 question exam given after a week, if any useful clustering could be detected.

>Yeah, why would a city government want to ensure they can
>accurately read/display their last few DECADES of official, legal
>documents?

If they're concerned with that, they should *avoid* Microsoft, unless they are going to keep an old machine with each version forever.

Historically, staroffice/libreoffice/openoffice has done a *better* job than ms of reading prior versions of ms documents.

but you're not removing that interest--you'er just changing who pays for it.

"public finance" isn't free, nor does it mean that the money doesn't get borrowed. Rather, the net increase in public debt is the amount paid out by the government.

I guess they don't say it like I did, but there are about 8 references to Fedora on their site, they're clearly based on Fedora.

The whole point is that Bazzite is the Red Hat-based gaming distro. If Bazzite used another distro, it would really be something else entirely and likely be somewhat duplicated effort.

What I don't get is why they can't do their own packaging of 32 bit libraries? I assume that what Bazzite devs do is mainly packaging, so why not also package this thing that your distro needs to work?

" could seep upward into the Alsace aquifer," implies that the aquifer is *above* the depth of the mine. So the question becomes, what is this magical mine where gravity works backwards?

I just submitted bug report FB18359754 for this.

>On 6/24/25, wallet pushed a notification for movie tickets. This is in error because both:
>1) wallet does not have permission for such notifications, and
>2) this should have been blocked by the privacy system.

>Public financing or 1% loans will almost entirely cut that cost.

no, that doesn't change the cost *at all*.

It simply changes who pays that cost. It may or may not make sense for the public to pay it, but it still gets paid.

Where on the planet is not near groundwater?

And yet, the discovery of an anti-gravity mine where contaminants flow UP to the aquifer, should be worth billions.

actually, running them on bus routes at bus prices might be a practical options.

Run a half dozen of these at five minute intervals rather than a bus every half hour and mass transit suddenly becomes more practical and attractive.

One key question is how many you can run for the cost of one bus.

The long intervals are a major factor in making bus travel practical in all but the densest cities in the US.

So is the inability to automatically electrocute disruptive morons, but that's for another topic.

If the CEOs believe it is true, it won't matter that it is true. Reducing headcount and ending hiring is going to be their priority.

I say any company over 50 employees needs to be charged an extra AI tax for eliminating positions, above and beyond the unemployment taxes they already pay on layoffs.

>At worst my eating experience could be as bland as eating at McDonald's,

err, that's worse than being hospitalized for food poisoning?

>(dying temporarily reduces the speed to a lower level).

It's been decades, but I don't remember dye packets being something you could pick up in pacman. And how would you apply one once you had it?
