On Bazzite, and I use Heroic. It’s great for GOG and Epic store games.

My roommate mentioned it a few days ago, and I found out this evening that her and her girlfriend are both using it. While it may have started off as an astroturf, it’s legit now.

Does Jimmy Carter’s ghost have some unfinished business?

My roommate mentioned the app a few days ago before this was in the news and I found out earlier this evening that her and her girlfriend are both using it. This is (at least somewhat) real.

I still can’t believe that happened, it’s just so WTF.

I work retail. On the clothing, the vast majority of the tags already are RFID, but for a different kind of automation - it’s by SKU or a similar number, and it’s already used for inventory counts and locating specific items for online orders. The other stuff isn’t because a lot more of that is manufactured by sometime other than the store and would require Coca Cola and so many others to cooperate and someone has to eat the cost of doing it and a twelve pack of coke doesn’t come with the issue of having to find a specific style and size of black thong located somewhere in a dozen boxes of underwear that includes five other extremely similar styles of black thong (true story btw, anyone know of less shit jobs hiring in the Twin Cities?).

Also, you would be astonished at the number of detached tags we find, if someone is shoplifting it’s incredibly common for people to rip the tags off. Probably because at least one retailer already does something like that.

Which stadium does his current subscriber count fill now?

It’d be incredible for deaf people being able to read captions for spoken conversations and to have the other person’s glasses translate from ASL to English.

Honestly I’d be a bit shocked if the AI ASL -> English doesn’t exist already, there’s so much training data available, the Deaf community loves video for obvious reasons.

many Americans are physically beating their children

I think it really depends on what you define as beating. Spanking was incredibly common in the South 20-30 years ago and 10 I would have said it’s still fairly common (and by south, my experience was in central Florida, parts of which actually are deep south). I’m glad it’s become less common because it actually is physically beating a child and shouldn’t be acceptable. But I’d say it still is.

As a trans man, I’ve found that one of the more horrifying nominally gendered childhood things that I share with way too many cis men is the trauma of the line if you don’t stop crying I’ll give you something to cry about. It’s fucked up.

You’re getting downvoted by people who didn’t watch the video, lol. I saw it when it was posted because the YouTube algorithm knows me way too well, it’s kinda terrifying actually.

Growing up in the 90s, my father worked for the Florida Division of Forestry, and control burns were just a thing I heard about at the dinner table, sometimes when getting smoked out on the playground I’d ask him if it was a prescribed burn or a wildfire. So was him being asked to help every few years when California was on fire again.

I was astonished to find out as an adult that prescribed burns weren’t as widespread as they seemed, and this video does a pretty good job of explaining some of why that is. And yes, it’s partly racism - control burns were a part of indigenous forest management and part of the racist maligning of indigenous practices as non-scientific and backwards. In the modern era, there’s also elements of entrenched thinking on the part of forestry services, and money issues (governments, in general, don’t like paying for preventative measures, they prefer paying more after something awful has occurred), and NIMBYs not wanting to be inconvenienced.

I do think the framing unfairly maligns Smokey Bear as a symbol though, in the past 30-ish years he’s been more about regular citizens being responsible with fire, and responsible forest management.

Maybe I’m missing something obvious here, but how do you use the stove?

Minnesota had deep fried ranch at the state fair last year.

Wasn’t this basically the plot to Michael Crichton’s novel Timeline?

Ultimate convenience microwave - add a camera inside the microwave and use image recognition to identify the food and automatically cook it perfectly.

And this is how you end up with an AI subscription-based microwave that sells your data.

Sure, but we’re also the last state to have 3.2 beer. Come on in-Bev, bribe our politicians to finally end this!

I agree with everyone else saying this is probably an Alyx sequel for the Deckard headset they’re developing…

But if it’s legit HL3 it’ll be hilarious if they announce it on April 1st.

YOU JUST KILLED A KENNEDY!

There’s actually an iPho restaurant in the Twin Cities. No clue if it’s any good, but the name is fun.

Well, there was Jimmy Carter. Best former president we’ve ever had.
