I enjoyed the humor and the ending, it reminds me of some DOS games I grew up with. Nice work Neal :) Clicker games can be considered banal, but when there is an interesting unexpected story or comedy behind the progressions, they are fun l

There are limitations depending on the state, the workaround is to 'no fault evict' tenants, have the property vacant and re-advertise. At least one state has banned 'no fault evictions', though there are workarounds. Ou

The maintenance costs on this would be enormous! I sail regular old boring wind powered boats, and I have to admit, if I could afford this I'd probably buy it! Saying that though, I have no idea how it would work legally in ports. I&#x

I tried to hit the 600 post limit by scrolling through my feed quickly, after about 2.5 minutes the tweets I was being shown were mostly the same ones but on a loop. I kept scrolling for another 3 minutes and yeah, it's like the last 1

The yachts they can disable are the smaller, wind powered ones. Probably not the kind of boat you had in mind. A sinking yacht it a serious threat to life but, hey, it's pretty neat, right?

What country are you in? I have YouTube Premium and I don't get _any_ ads at all from YouTube, only the sponsored segments from creators directly (and no, NordVPN, I don't need a VPN, yes I know you exist).

The sponsored segments as in advertising that creators have negotiated directly? I have YouTube Premium and that's the only type of ad I get, I don't get anything else.

The warning screenshot posted in the article says that you can enjoy YouTube without ads if you sign up for Premium.

Templated output means you could build flexible user interfaces to interact in novel ways beyond a mere text input. What I find absolutely incredible right now is that any novel idea I have about "it would be nice if you could do X&quo

I've wondered if despite instruction it forgets due to a context limit. There's a lot I still don't understand. I found if it forgot to format in a certain way you could 'remind it', and it would get back on track,

Induction is the best of both worlds, but you do have to have induction pans. Stainless steel last a lifetime, and are not _that_ expensive, and you can also use cast iron!

My fridge has touch buttons, and they often go haywire and reprogram the desired temperature! They at least beep while the ghost is interacting with them, so I can go and make sure my drinks don't end up frozen.

My top of the line Android Auto compatable head unit is pretty ordinary. A RAM mount on the windscreen holding my phone is significantly more responsive!

It's often of poor quality and not in 4k. I rented a movie from YouTube the other day and the stream supported HDR, and if I had a 5.1 surround that would have worked, too! If you're not watching 4 hours of TV per day it's no

I've been a subscriber to basically everything for years. The only reason I haven't cancelled 90% of them is because my retired parents use my accounts. I almost never use the streaming services they use (I use YouTube Premium _a

And for some reason half of the world have port and starboard channel markers as red and green, and the other are green and red. I don't know who's fault that is!

Is this available as a feature in xmind or is this an idea postured to potential competitors?

There's also what society values. While I'm no art historian, it looks that after the invention of the camera, painters shifted to different styles that were not replicable by cameras (e.g. landscapes and portraits to abstract), a

Thanks for this! The compare feature is very cool, especially being able to play around with GPT4 settings (I'm still on the waiting list for GPT4 API so having access to this now is fantastic).

That is incredible! What hours on average do the contractors put in per week? That's such an interesting story, I'll have to read your book!

I got my first job at 19 after the dot com collapse, I was hired _because_ I had no work experience, no degree, and no expectations of salary (I was hired on minimum wage, though). They wanted a few people with no understanding of what it w

> Try to assume the best in people and their actions and your life will likely be better for it. This is solid advice. After 20 years of (trying to) implementing it, it's made for much better professional and personal relationships.

You are correct, you cannot order a new 70 series in Australia at the moment (or a 200, or a 300 series I believe). Right now dealer 'used' 78 series with 300kms on the clock are around 120k, or you can buy a 20 year old one for j

Did you have an SSD on your PC ~3 years ago? I never found it to be that bad or for it to take that long! I kicked off the Ventura update today on the M1 Pro, went out to get lunch, it had finished by the time I got back. I've been on

Apple could probably build an iPhone/iPad with an M1 CPU and allow you to 'do it all' on the single device. I really hope one day my phone can also be my day-to-day computer. That would be so cool!

I agree, build something. But I don't think it has to be anything too 'juicy', especially not at this stage. At this point I think it's about building something that will be a bit of a stretch but nothing too big that it

I would like to know why the alleged hacker backed down, stating that they have withdrawn the ransom request and deleted the stolen data. It sounds like a convenient caveat to an agreement to pay ransom to the hackers, and I wouldn't p
