The most credible source I find credits it to an article by German satirist and journalist, Kurt tucholsky who was supposedly quoting a French diplomat in 1925

I can definitely taste the difference between aspartame and sugar but its not unpleasant to me.

Of course it’ll be awhile before anything like that, this is just one engineering problem solved. But self driving within a confined space like a parking lot (especially a parking lot that doesn’t normally allow humans) is a lot easier to solve than the general case. I think you’d see adoption happen first with fleets of cars or buses, before it would become common place for just regular stuff.

Physical connections are really rough, they require millimeter precision, Tesla has been trying to do this for ages

Not having a cable unlocks some interesting potential. Right now an inconvenience of driving an EV is that the chargers may be full and inconsiderate people may leave their car plugged in for longer than needed. Take away the need to plug in and add some self driving and you could have your car automatically charge then move itself to a regular spot once it’s done. Could make a setup like this a lot more simple.

Yeah that’s a deal breaker for me too. But the flexible and non-full time hours could make it an attractive side hustle or student job. Good luck getting anyone senior though.

Remember that there’s big polluters of the world want you to believe its all already over and that you can’t win. This is a strategy they explicitly employ, and you are not immune to their propaganda.

But without bots how will I know when I accidentally post a haiku and what political ideology is right!

If Linux gets popular the mega corps will just follow them there and then you’ll be asking them to uninstall Dell os or at least remove the Linux recall (powered by bing) that it comes bundled with. Just look at the modern state of android.

Interesting that you say hades has that intuitive randomness, one of my biggest complaints for hades 1 is that you can basically force whatever run you want every single run. It felt like a roguelike for people who hate roguelikes. Isaac otoh I totally agree, its my most played game by far really love it.

I also dislike deckbuilders, but slay the spire is the exception. It skips the tideous deck management a lot of games have and you aren’t playing against an other deck which is a big part of what I hate.

I think the game’s good side doesn’t really show until you beat it. And with the context that moral choice game systems were a trend and up to this point extremely shallow (infamous series, army of two etc).

I couldn’t get into it either though to be honest, but I enjoyed reading about the lore and the games it inspired.

I find it really inconvenient compared to just adding a movie to radarr.

For me I stopped watching sports because it was impossible to stream it for a fair price. They won the piracy fight against me personally so now I just don’t watch at all.

The gambling is really concerning for me, if I have kids I want them to play sports for the exercise, but I think the downsides of all the gambling almost out weigh that at this point. It’s crazy that sports aren’t family friendly anymore.

I do it lying in bed

But why? Why is having static-y clothes a problem.

That’s exactly what I do with my chemex yeah.

Can you imagine how great it would be if every class of item had to come in the same container. It would make reuse of those packages viable which would be way better than recycling ever could.

Plastic recycling really sucks, but paper recycling is usually a net positive and compost is such a no brainer I’m always shocked it isn’t everywhere.

I don’t love that they stop working when your sub expires (unlike audible) but that price does have me really tempted.

Audible costs me about 12CAD/book

Libro seems to only cost 20CAD/book which is a significant hike but it’s not as bad as buying the books outright which costs 30-40$ which is simply too much for me to afford. I’ll probably switch when I run out of ausible credits thanks for the rec!
