I just watched an interview of Karen Hao and she mentioned something along the lines of executives being oversold AI as something to replace everyone instead of something that should exist alongside people to help them, and they believe it.
I think the study alludes more to consumption of stuff exposed to it in agriculture. But I am interested as well because the grass killer I use at home has diquat, and while I wear shades and a mask when spraying, I can still smell a hint of it.
Ah shit the grass killer I have has diquat. But the weed killer variant from the same brand doesn’t have it, which is interesting.
Hard agree. The only issue is frozen sweet potato fries are way more expensive than regular. I try to make my own at home but can’t get the same crispness in the air fryer.

There’s a 4chan equivalent that uses activitypub, I just forgot the name.
Post pandemic, I only go if it’s a movie worth seeing in IMAX or Dolby. And movies like those are like once a year.
Most of us moved to .zip. Some moved to db0 and piefed.
That’s why I specified it would be best to have an inspection done before the walls are put up.
I definitely experienced some of the stuff mentioned in the article.
The pressure to buy or else you lose the discounts.
Showing you only the homes that are near completion so you’re forced to buy those even when you’re not in a hurry.
The rep saying they’ll grab their tools in the truck to fix some of the blue tape stuff immediately, then seeing the same blue tape still there when you move in.
Going out of their way to try to avoid warranty claims.
Thankfully we haven’t had the severe issues the people in article have that make their homes literally unlivable. If you’re a first time buyer, get your own 3rd party inspection and make sure the builder follows through with the issues found.
As the article mentioned, these builders (at least for the more affordable homes) hire the cheapest subcontractors they can find, so brand doesn’t really matter much. It boils down to the quality of the subcontractors in the area you’re in. So make sure to get an inspection. If you can get in early enough where the walls haven’t gone up yet, better. If you can afford it, do 2 inspections, before (when foundation is poured and no walls yet) and after (actual pre-closing inspection on the completed house). We were only able to do the latter, and thankfully we haven’t had any major issues yet.
Edit: Don’t forget to also have an inspection done on your 11th month, to get any work done before the first year warranties expire. You’ll have more power to get stuff fixed if you have a report from a licensed inspector.
Openbox. Simple and efficient.
Lol at Snarky Puppy getting caught up in that search result.
What’s wrong with Apple Notes?
I assume it’s because of HIPAA requirements. The doctor is essentially recording patient information into his private Apple account. Obviously that depends on what info he was putting there. If it was just mundane stuff like scheduling, then it’s probably fine.
Dude watched too much action movies.
Yeah I got an email from our solar panel company that they’re filing for bankruptcy. I just hope whoever picks them up doesn’t jack up lease prices to make up for it.
Except breaking end-to-end encrypted messaging. That’s the one sore spot.
.zip has the closest instance policies to .ee. A lot of .ee refugees moved there (me included). Some also moved to piefed if you’re considering that.
Assuming your group has a considerable amount of non tech savvy people, I would suggest Friendica just for the familiarity, since it’s supposed to be like facebook and it would be easier for people to use. I don’t know if it has groups though. You might also sacrifice admin/mod capabilities. I’m not familiar how good friendica’s admin tools are (if any).
ELI5 why there’s not enough information?
