OsmAnd+ for mobile maps

To know if you are on your home network and use direct lan etc, rather than finding a sync relay in the cloud…something like that.

My issue would be with my spouse not the other party.

Also coffee: you can’t sleep because you drank too much of me

Repairs though. Our 2010 laptop had the enter key die. Thankfully back then parts were still somewhat user repairable.

I bought a new keyboard for $18 on AliExpress, and just had to remelt the plastic heat stakes to pop out the old keyboard and drop in the new one. Took maybe 2 hours with disassembly steps and reassembly.

Current laptops often just get tossed out, but with a framework you can swap keyboards in 15 minutes.

It just needs to collect flower pots, then some lawn chairs, and then lampposts to achieve its final* katamari form

I think its somewhat early in research. They are seeing they can process info through the neurons like computing, and that at full gestation period there is a change. However they claim that without external sensing and stimuli such as vision or movement or a way to interact with the environment that they arent sure if true conscious like behaviour would emerge, because an organism learns its surrounding and sense of self by interaction with the physical world. Its a scary topic that I don’t have proper knowledge to comment on how beneficial or horrific it might be

Ordered a tiny credit card sized part on Amazon, it came in an enormous box that you could fit a car wheel in…and the box printing said “Now made with less material”. So maybe it equalled out.

It’s definitely a gray area (pun intended). Research has shown that the neuron lab matter takes the normal gestation period to fully start communicating and organizing properly. So it suggests that its inevitable that neural matter reaches a state of completion ready for life at end of gestarion.

I.e. rat neurons are ready in a few weeks

I see it with White middle aged Americans.

Them: Oh me I’m Irish

Me: Oh, your parents, grandparents came over?

Them: No, Great Great Great Great… Grandfather

Me: huh, OK. Have you ever been to Ireland?

Them: No, I want to one day.

Not sure why you got downvoted, they have probed microchondrial DNA and shows the timeline of emergence from africa and spreading migration paths.

So being Canadian I have a different outlook. My province used to charge $1500 per year for health coverage so that everything was “free” at point of service. Then we changed political parties and they dropped it to $750 per year, years later to $0 per year. (The idea being if you are struggling then any monthly payment could would be a hardship).

So now we pay nothing for healthcare and my income taxes went up $270 on first 50K, but at least I’m not paying $1500 or $750.

So cheap health care and still save 5K for retirement

In time for sure. It takes 16 x the amount of plant protein to feed/ create the same 1x beef protien. So overtime we could feed everyone easily. Its the interim that will be a mess.

If you’ve ever tried feed grain corn vs sweet corn…its going to be a hard sell lol

There’s a good amount of wasted food that could be used, but you suddenly have a whole world not eating meat, eggs, dairy, and all plant based, then there will be a temporary shortage on everything

Everyone stops eating meat, dairy at once causing a huge collapse of industry and supply chain jobs. Farms haven’t had time to switch use to plants only causing starvation.

No new giant projects are launched because, everyone wants to sit and relax and deal with current issues while sipping a drink on the porch.

Public transit is overloaded as everyone realizes everyone owning a car is a ridiculous and wasteful idea.

I’m in the Vancouver area so people that looks like a celebrity usually are that celebrity.

I’m not out much but I saw Carrie Anne Moss pushing here new born one time a decade or so back, Pamela Anderson, David Suzuki, and Kim Catrall.

You get the “hmm that person looks familiar” feeling, they often smile or nod because you are staring wondering where you know them from.

Some ads I saw last year didn’t even talk about the product, I had no clue what they were selling, other than a quirky relationship video

Is it this one? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91yoFz5XFqY
