All the news that's fit to print ...

FFS, she has to be down to 4-5 lives left… This afternoon, I noticed that I couldn’t find Pistachio, so I grabbed the food dish and started searching everywhere in the house. No Pistachio. Karla and I had made a large grocery run today, and we started panicking, thinking the car had snuck out around us. I spent 3 hours searching outside in 108 Real Feel temperatures beating bushes, looking for the damn thing. Then Karla called me. The cat had managed to open one our kitchen cabinets and got stuck inside…

OK, but now we are all capable of diagnosing from across the Mall.

Bwhahahahahaha!

@taiwan_girl said in Calling Apple Computer Experts - I need Help/Advice!!: @Axtremus Do you still recommend the Samsung SSD (as referenced in the linked thread I have in my first post? Yes, I still like the Samsung SSDs. In the past I wrote about the "860" series; Samsung as since came out with the "870" series, and it's all good. Samsung makes three variants of those SSDs, the PRO, the EVO, and the QVO. PRO is most durable, highest performing, and also most expensive - save this for the mission critical stuff. EVO is IMO good for every day use. QVO is the newest variant, it's also the cheapest, lowest performing, least durable among the three; personally I do not use the QVO variant.

@Horace said in Free Tuition: An untrained hypochondriac filtering through a bunch of google search results will not be exactly the same thing as a doctor consulting a trained diagnostic AI Well, sure. I kind of thought you were implying we didn't really need doctors because we've got AI but re-reading it I probably misunderstood where you were going.

We have a flight leaving tomorrow out of Houston. They run it once per day, and it was cancelled yesterday, and now again today. Coming down to the wire for tomorrow, but as of now it’s still scheduled.

@taiwan_girl said in "No Masks!": @George-K said in "No Masks!": that’s really going to affect the Black and Brown community, I dont get that. Why would they be more normal to wear masks? What about the yellow community? Because the brown and black communities are more likely to commit crimes (with or without masks) so any laws to affect criminals wearing masks will disproportionately affect BIPOC…

@Jolly said in The Misery Index: It's a blog post, not the NYT. (Not that they are perfect, either). There may come a time in the very near future where you'll long for human mistakes. It’s a revenue generator. There’s a bit of a distance between 6.8% and 68%… The typo can explain once, but multiple times? If they can’t take the time to read their shit, why should I?

@taiwan_girl said in I've done this one...: (Didn't watch the video) But, it sounds good. I like pineapple in a lot of things. Adds a bit of sweet/sour spice to a dish. Watch and let the Butter Queen teach you how to cook. 🧈

I am guessing that will "drive" up delivery costs!!! (pun intended )

@89th LOL @Doctor-Phibes Hope your ears are feeling better.
