The Boozy Bonobos has a better roll off the tongue, I think!

While the speculation as to what "Cambrain explosion" could refer to is amusing, it is a typo. He clearly meant "Cambrian explosion".

I prefer to use OTA TV with streaming alongside it to fill in the gaps. The network TV channels I get OTA is enough for me. I don't need anything additional from a cable package.

Tesla is on the short list of companies who I refuse to work for. Meta is also on that list.

They're doing more general anthropological research but a good place to start would probably be furscience.com. They're scientists who study the furry fandom. You might find it interesting.

I left Twitter because all the furries I follow left. They left because they started making it mandatory that Grok AI would be allowed to scrape your posts, including their original art, for training data. It's now thriving, and I haven't looked back. I don't know when I last logged onto...

Descent was such an absolute banger of a game. I only ever played it at a friend's house, but it stuck with me. Finally grabbed it on Steam when it was available. It still is a great game.

There was an old thing online years ago where someone wrote up a whole page explaining why the moon doesn't really exist. It was parody, but done in a style that mimicked conspiracy theorists. I found it while doing a project on propaganda for high school. It was my favorite thing for a while...

Just tried to generate an image using Yoda in Google Gemini. And you know what? Midjourney isn't the only one. I suspect all of them are doing this. Looking forward to seeing this precipitate a reckoning when it comes to what they use for training data. Sad that for something like this to get...

This better be an April Fool's joke because I'm already over 200 hours in the game, and this will make it even easier for me to lose track of time. Seriously, I always play this with the Steam clock overlay because I will lose track of time and lose hours of my day in this game. EDIT: Just...

From my limited experience trying it a couple times, it does. And if you're in an area with what it considers an unstable connection, it won't let you enable it at all. I mostly use dumb summon to have it back out of my garage or pull into my garage if I need to move the car out of the way...

We'll see when I have to start worrying about this. I can't justify a new TV purchase right now. It's mid-range 4k and HDR, but I don't want to generate unnecessary e-waste for marginal picture quality improvements. Reminds me how years ago, before I bought it, I (stupidly) spent a lot of money...

With Chargepoint, you are correct that you need to use their app. But once you sign up for an account and link your regular credit card, you can just tap it at a Chargepoint terminal and it'll look up your account for you.

We know about Celsius, thanks.

I agree. And yeah, gosh, Nix is super cute. The mission where he gets kidnapped by the Hutts got me heated. It probably was the only mission that I actually got really into, because how dare they. It was still over very quickly though.

This assessment feels accurate to my experiences. I have come to love FSD (in its more recent builds) but it's still only a driver assistance feature. I've had it make baffling mistakes, but for the most part, it really takes a lot of stress out of driving, much like cruise control did compared...

They should be. I used it once to report a malfunctioning traffic light, out here. The town/city website should have that info posted.

After learning about DOS batch scripting, I took QBASIC in junior high. All through high school I would spend hours after school messing around making programs in QBASIC. Even made a few games (including a clone of Tetris that I eventually was allowed to install onto our computer lab network...

I wonder if this has anything to do with the sensation I get when transitioning into sleep. It feels like a wave of sorts washing through my brain. Before it, I'm alert. Afterwards, I'm in a light sleep state and probably seconds away from losing consciousness.

After an update last month (or November, I forget when), it seems to at least duck the volume of the radio when giving nav directions, if the nav volume and radio volume are relatively close.
