I suspect a show for entertainment would script it a bit and add some high end stuff. So the fact that even after watching you say it's rare to find good stuff tells me it's even worse than the show lets on.

Are you a parent? It's not as easy as saying "no social media" to your kids. In this day and age, it's basically equivalent to saying "you can't have friends". Online is where kids meet, hang out, converse

I suspect they will sell a ton. For the most part, people scoffed at inflation and just kept spending. Unemployment is still super low and wages are rising. Reports seem to indicate people still have money saved from the pandemic (eg. trave

I hate news pages that are just a video. I prefer to just casually read news instead of having to watch a whole video on the topic. I find Apple News shows me a ton of these type of articles (looking at you MSNBC) and I wish I could toggle

As others in the tech scene have said, it might be hard to find the real valuable GPTs since the barrier to build is so low. At least with the app scene, learning Swift/Javascript/ObjC created a barrier, with ChatGPT store anyone

The report here ( https://www.daihatsu.com/news/2023/report_1_E.pdf ) lists Toyota Yaris, Toyota RAIZE HEV, Toyota Agya, Toyota Pixis Joy, Toyota Pixis Truck, Toyota Roomy, and Toyota Tank all affected.

Yes you are correct. I thought you meant you now go to Ali/eBay/walmart.com as first choice for any purchase. My mistake.

Hate to break it to you, but Aliexpress is likely less reliable than Amazon (or have the exact same products). eBay is likely the same and Walmart allows 3rd party sellers so it's pretty much the same as Amazon unless you source the pr

GNC (and likely other online supplement stores) have an online presence and likely has some QA for the products they sell. Amazon just insists on having 1,000,000+ listings for supplements rather than a more curated list. Perhaps some categ

I'd say it's incredibly easy to build a basic extension, and if you know a little programming (at least to know what to say to ChatGPT) then you can get more complicated with your extensions. I mostly get my results by simply conv

Ya I took a leap from original question, but I was just pointing out how it's hard to just blanket pardon people.

>Why not just pardon everyone who was convicted? The argument I've heard is that many with simple possession on their record may have actually pleaded down from a different crime, and that needs to be taken into consideration.

They have to put you to a dealership because Ford et al don't actually sell cars, a franchisee does. It's the same reason you can't go order a Big Mac on McDonalds.com. Also, if you are customizing a car, a dealer has to put

It obviously has to do with the long history of auto manufacturers, franchise stores and the laws around who can sell a vehicle. Not many people agree with that set up (other than the manufacturer and the dealer) but that's the way it

Probably 8 or 9 years ago there was a mistake on the Air Canada Flight Pass website. It was advertising a 10 leg, business class flight pass between Western Canada and Western US for $800. This would mean 5x return trips between say LA and

I've been considering newer Toyota Tacoma's recently and their interiors are still stuck in 2010. I believe they are releasing a new redesign, but I still can't believe how outdated even 2022's are.

Horizontal drilling with a closed loop system sounds a lot like Eavor's system ( https://www.eavor.com/ ). Eavor was a hot company here in Alberta a while ago but I haven't heard anything since.

Other than urine, blood and CSF fluid, a sample from pretty much any part of the body will have visible bacteria. A Gram stain is performed on many cultures to start to eliminate groups of bacteria.

Transplants are typically reserved for those with recurrent CDI (although that is likely different in the US where I think you can pay for one privately). In Canada it is a covered procedure.
