    You know you're getting old when.....

    Thanks to a combination of shoulder dislocations and bang ups playing hockey when I was a young adult and being a side sleeper. My only real consistent pain moments are that I sleep on one side, wake up an hour or two later with the shoulder on bottom hurting, roll over, go back to sleep...

    Probably mad his boyfriend was staring at Jax's manmeat the whole time... I think it worked well. For Cage it was his "realizing his power/destiny" movie, for Katana it was pretty much straight up story line from the game canon being played out. It was a good and functional ensemble fighting...

    I completely expect this. Because what good is anything if big corporations can't get politicians and bureaucrats to make sure they get exclusive access to the profits from it?

    I think two things are in play with the low "AI Revenue" estimate. First, I wouldn't put it past him to just be calling out AI revenue generated for the first half of the year. Second, a lot of the "What about all the AI infrastructure outlays and Capex expenditures" aren't actual AI...

    OK. In the category at the intersection of "Weird shit I've bought at places you wouldn't expect" and "Shit I'd never thought I'd use myself, but why the hell not?!?" @Mrs. Haus Follows a dermatologist woman out of Houston who reviews skin care stuff. And she discovered a surprisingly...

    Sam Altman has literally said that his intention is to replicate all knowledge and sell it back as a service. Meaning experience, in his opinion, will be what he takes and sells back to companies so they no longer need to pay you.

    IN THEORY you're supposed to clear and re-seal granite once I year I believe. In practice I think I've done this to our granite countertops twice in the dozen years since I had them put in during the kitchen remodel. As @Lanx noted, it's also very possible to just never seal it. Only risk...

    If you don't provide enough information the filtering AI's don't even let your resume get to a person now a days. Many jobs also require a credit check, hand them your SSN and then can get to your age from there usually. You say it's crazy, but I have personally experienced that ageism is a...

    Kinda like has been said. The original series was just going to be 5 seasons. And the first five built up and pay off well. Admittedly S1 is a little slow getting it's footing. Seasons 6-12 or so was because the CW backed up a dump truck of money because at the end of season 5 Supernatural...

    Yeah, the green pools. I found you can avoid all blood seekers by simply doing a /sit before you start fishing. You can't "cast" the blood hunter summon when you're sitting, it fails. So you get the fish, without the fight. I kinda tried to perceptionmax, My outlay : Blue rod (no enchant)...
