who…eh… needs a blanket?

FTA:

The estimated lifespan of the outer solar system has been downgraded from 100 billion years to just a few billion years, according to a study that probed “terminal instability” during the Sun’s death.

i mean, when you become a siren’s dinner… you technically don’t have any debt.

This how you know Microsoft is behind on forcing AI into everything.

Probably lost the race, in fact.

The only exception I’d give is to defrost the windshield since you can really drive like that.

Which is a regular need for a lot of people in the north. I’d make a comment about Minnesota being like that, but the Canadians would chime in and be like “oh you think thats cold”.

Not that I mind Canadians so much, it’s just I’m grumpy they haven’t invaded us yet.

It depends on where you are- and usually it’s basically on the same level as a parking ticket, and frequently at the city level, not state. Most cities will say something and you can get out of it by arguing “you’ve done it for years and so does everyone else” (it’s usually only enforced if you annoy the cops some how.)

So at the risk of being “that guy”, cars eventually turn themselves off. It’s also frequently some degree of illegal to leave your car running and unattended in a lot of places.

Like in Minnesota, can’t start the car and let it warm up. (Partly to reduce the opportunity of thieves. Partly because people get distracted and let it go for hours, affecting air quality. And partly because their tiny dicks froze.)

They don’t just save lives. They do, and that’s the important thing. But they also make traffic better for everyone. including the dumbass that wants to remove them.

So… apparently Dragon Naturally Speaking (version 16!) has them all blown out of the water…

do you think that an LLM trained by the same doctors is going to do any better? and that assumes the doctors doing the training are… you know… actually doctors, and actually not biased by politics.

Hey! that’s what the worm said… shortly before starving to death.

Basically, you cook it low and slow until it comes to temp, then let it rest (account for overcooking,) then sear it off after its come back down enough to not go back above the target doneness.

It’s like a poor man’s souls vide, and works great.

The advantage over traditional sear and pan fry/grilling is that it’s more controlled and less likely to go over, letting get the perfect crust and perfect sear. The disadvantage is that it takes more time. It can also be fully cooked ahead of time and the steaks seared off quickly if you’re doing a party.

Compared to sous vide it’s generally faster, doesn’t need to be bagged and generally can be done with what you already have in the kitchen, an it helps dry out the crust to set up a perfect sear. Sous vide has the most control, mind.

If i were served that, my manners would require that I take a small portion and try it, but then to feign some excuse to not finish that. it’s only polite, right?

How, eh, high are you?

For more hideous context… there’s things like this, too:

And this:

I’m not even sure I know what to ask!

Let’s start with something, though….What are your favorite cuts to work with… and what do you with them?

I have 3 shades of skin. White, Pink and Burnt.

It’s rather nice being able stun would be attackers just by showing some leg.

This is what happens when they grow up hearing all the dad joke groaners and return the favor.

wait until they start selling your, erm, ‘habits’ to data brokers and we start seeing websites selling “what are they into” kind of data to people. (people including your employer… )

They have.

But failing safe doesn’t get them monthly subscriptions.
