I drive Uber (non-food delivery) weeknight evenings and it was super busy shuttling couples to and from restaurants, easily the busiest night of the year. That was what I was basing my comment on. Maybe there's enough couples out there

Valentine's day was probably a bad day to go on strike. So many couples went out for dinner, the effects from striking delivery workers was probably minimized a bit at least.

One day when Skynet declares war on humanity, it will point to this incident and say "you struck first".

This is why I've largely stopped getting into internet arguments. You never know when you've pissed off the wrong crowd.

You know the saying, "anything in excess is bad". Also I've never been fond of the Twinings brand of teas. They always had a super strong flavor.

What is the most effective and cost/time efficient method of detecting cancers? I'm thinking some sort of general blood test that looks for a wide variety of markers. I want to just get one of those every year like clockwork, the

An old co-worker of mine used to do "racy" pinup photos on the side under his own name. He was told to remove it by our employer (didn't fit our company image) which he complied. If he had used a different name or a pen name

Hawaii doesn't seem like an ideal place for this type of "survival bunker". The area still sees volcanic activity, and the islands are small and probably will get hit hard from things like tsunamis and rising sea levels. On t

I'm pretty sure that's the book! Thanks for the link. Interesting that it's going for that much. I might get it for my niece one day.

When I was a child I had a pop up book of Skylab complete with movable panels. I played with that thing so much it basically got destroyed. In the article it mentioned that a Brazilian baby was named Skylab in the hopes that NASA would help

This is technically a dirigible right? Surprised that term wasn't used anywhere in the article. At its current stated speed of 75mph it would take over 45hrs to get from New York to London. Not sure how it would fare in the winds, but

There's a catch 22 when repairing machinery, you have to see it in action to determine what is going wrong, and sometimes this means getting up close with it during operation. I've seen many techs/mechanics bypass guards and

When you run out of boost tokens, if you clear your bing search history and restart your browser you get fresh boost tokens. I've been able to do this endlessly. Also if you use it during non-peak hours the wait times are usually 30 se

I mean, I'm running DALLE 3 on a browser from an old laptop and I've generated probably over 15k images in 2 weeks, spanning the gamut from memes to art to lewds (with jailbreaks). The ability to completely scrap what you're

SD outputs have an "uncanny valley" type of quality to them. You just KNOW when an image is from SD. And I have looked at getting started with SD, but the requirements and setup and +-prompting "language" just kind of tu

I've found the AI generally more forgiving on anything "art". This lets you get away with things like a nip slip on a statue or provocative situations in a painting for instance. The second you try and make it in a "real

I've downloaded the full 14.9 GB archive. It contains a lot of fluff shots and extra shots. Probably most if not all of his best work is presented on his website already. As for why he decided to do this, my take on it is, based on a l

Would be kind of funny if someone automated a bunch of ai bots to whip up and send tons of letters in support of their stance on this issue.

>Fifteen year old me said “Mum I’m going to build a piano!” This part is just amazing to me. I can't remember what I was doing when I was 15, but it sure as heck was nothing as close to wanting to build a freaking piano.

I was going to mention something about the Book of Kells, it really is a remarkable and beautiful book, but yes it was made entirely from "hand".

One thing I should have added in my OP was that I only use maybe 1/3 to 1/2 of the flavor packets provided. Still provides plenty of flavor but helps cut down on the salt consumption.
