Is there a reason steam hasn't just changed policy so that adult games can only be purchased with store credit? They already have systems in place to load a steam balance, which isnt refundable, and then buy games with it. Just lock th

I agree. I want to be able to get smaller models which are complete, contained, products which we can run on-prem for our organization. I'll take a model specialized in web scraping. Give me one trained on generating report and docume

I've had the same counter offer experience. I decided to stay, since I got what I wanted out of the deal. You need to be prepared to negotiate from a position of not-bluffing however. If they don't offer incentive enough to make s

How's this help when speaking to someone who hasn't memorized a map of Ireland and does not know which town is in which country?

Agree with this. I ride an electric scooter. I got off the sidewalk because I didn't want to make pedestrians uncomfortable. I did ~250 miles on mine in an urban environment, then recently I was hit by a car while in a non-protected bi

Because you "walk into" things and get hurt. Like walls, or trees. The notable exception is buildings, or less tangible things like a spotlight. Trains, ships, and busses are a weird kind of middle ground between on/in. Think

Pumped steam is essentially the version of this that we actually had, and still use in some places. My understanding is that it's mostly for heat but can be used for powered applications.

While I agree with your general statement here, are you saying that Abbotsford and Bellingham are both conservative towns? Greater Whatcom county, certainly, but Bellingham is a very liberal city. Political leaning aside I agree that Wester

Generally speaking space is the most valuable commodity in a warehouse (up to a certain height). A robot that costs 5x as much but yields 30% more usable space is a better value proposition. Also you wouldn't be able to accommodate any

Consider, for a moment, the state that China was in at the conclusion of WW2. It hadn't even industrialized yet. The British and the Japanese absolutely trashed China for over a hundred years! Russia was also not industrialized until a
