I can hear his perfectly whiny voice in my head saying it

They just wanted to make sure we all got to enjoy the classic ā€œShoigu! Gerasimov!ā€

Every now and then he can just say stuff like ā€œand what city do you live in againā€

This was always a non zero chance of occurring for him I think.

Option 2 is very effective for jealously inducement, it’s full vamp ā€œthis is what you are missing out on boyā€. Very no regrets shoot first style. Option 3 is a little more hinting at the vamp, and perhaps a little more complex or subtle - poison their tea style (You look smashing in all of them)

For this use case, the Hitachi Wand is very superior

He will look so cute during the AI revolution while grinding your face off 🄰🄰
comment in response to post
They are pretty good yeah, especially if you have added a stainless steel mixing ball to the offending pot. Admittedly a luxury item though I think the hitachi wand would very much do the same thing haha. But the vortex mixers are very easy to just have on your paint desk - no need to tape on.

The blue jumper origin story is getting quite involved, I hope it enters a happy story arc for you soon 😢 Also I was slightly concerned that the downwards glance and harsh words might have been directed nork-wards, but relieved that it was the blue jumper receiving its just desserts

Geologists are just as guilty

Well this very interesting - one way to reliably hit those incoming USV

Would also be the first time in recorded history that news outlet had a single care for the opinion or needs of any Gen Z person

Australia had a Prime Minister who it turned out wasn’t actually very good at swimming. We named a swimming centre after him.

The tax is paid on income they make from the endowment (same as a regular income / corporate tax) so in that sense so it’s not a wealth tax. But the rate of income tax applied is adjusted based on the total balance (ie wealth) of the endowment.

My brilliant strategy for winning wars is to simply be the most smartest, most strongest and perhaps even the most handsome man to ever wear a uniform

Writing advertorial copy feels like a death march so I can kind of sympathise…. But cmon man you have to take some pride

So many problems caused by people not understanding the most basic civics education (or wilfully lying)

I’m gonna buy a brick kiln and immediately pivot to becoming a defense tech startup. Get a retired 1 star on my advisory board and should be good for $100M+ seed round. You in?

The prismatic / colour change detail on the blade is awesome. Everything else is amazing too

That’s like $15 a beast

Has it ever looked good for the Efficient Market Hypothesis?
comment in response to post
It’s also full of Andor season 2 spoilers. Which I know is not like a hate crime like the stuff you are experiencing, but it’s annoying.

Work up to it slowly, try being Lizzie Reply Guye for a while?

Yeah I don’t have any industry/domain knowledge so probably that’s a big deal, especially thinking FCC type stuff

Hard to judge how much this might be a beat up / misunderstanding about components that are there for legit reasons vs oh yeah man the commies did it. I could believe both!
comment in response to post
Yes, perfect analogy šŸ˜†

They also had to create more and more things that could be merchandise- more characters, more ships, more planets etc

How is that double counting? Both of those water uses actually happened?
comment in response to post
But it can be broken down that way? It’s just maths - if you know how much water the data centre uses per compute unit it provides and how much of those compute units are required per type of query - you have all the variables to do the calculations? datacenters.microsoft.com/sustainabili...
comment in response to post
Because they do. Microsoft and I’m sure others are trying to design away the water use, but for the time being their data centres consume water. www.microsoft.com/en-us/micros...

I’d be happy if I paid someone for that, looks great

It’s not idolatry again is it 😬

I think it’s included for free in the Prime bundle right? So those users wouldn’t have had to ā€œsign upā€ or pay for anything (other than already being Prime subscribers and I’m sure Amazon has heaps of those)

If I put my ā€œhow to make carefully crafted statements to the market that are not technically liesā€ hat on - he said it had been ā€œrolled outā€ to 100,000 users. My guess is there is an A/B test group somewhere that probably got an Alexa update without even realising it
