I mean I think there’s nothing wrong with advertising OTC meds, which is also legal here. Might sometimes let you know about a product you didn’t know existed at all, common ones being gas relief drugs and joint pain creams.
Advertising prescription meds is just weird, feels very wrong, and I don’t understand how some countries don’t ban it.
LLM? I would’ve thought they’d use an image generation model for this rather than a language model. But yeah, it just does approximations without a lot of reasoning.
I’m not American, I’m Estonian lmao, but I bet you’re one of those Americans who wants to seem cultured so you talk about how much better things are in other countries? Am I wrong?
Edit: Nvm, Canadian - but up till like 2 months ago you guys were America Lite tbh
I usually can’t even get all my ingredients washed, peeled and chopped in under 5 minutes. Do you just throw everything on the pan at once and that’s it?
Do you exclusively cook meals that go in the oven and that’s it? No sauces to simmer, etc?
I think if I’m ever staying at your house, I’m ordering McDonalds lmao
The US also has literal holidays centered around sharing a meal with friends or family. Thanksgiving turkey, 4th of July barbecue…
I’d wager the reason people eat in 10 minutes instead of an hour is the same as it is everywhere else: after an 8 hour workday, you feel like all you’ve got between work and sleep is a few hours and you don’t want to waste it on something boring like eating.
Most of them don’t at least link to your shitty website. I’ll comment on new ones as I go.
Good point, I wasn’t paying enough attention
I think he found something he could use to jerk off all 3 dicks at once
Though that would result in paper cuts on 3 dicks…
Python itself might not be, but all the AI shit runs on GPUs so it’s CUDA or OpenCL or whatever underneath
I’m having a hard time deciding which Tommy is weirder tbh
But it’s been pipe since 1973
But in my neck of the woods plenty of people owned a PC before Windows networking AND ISPs were reliable lol
Like yes I had Internet at home, but sometimes it didn’t work very well, sometimes it was really slow, etc.
For years, it was almost normal in a small town to have an ethernet cable routed from your neighbour’s house to yours, share a connection. Guess what, it’ll be slow as shit when they’re using it too. Or if the router needs to be restarted for some reason and they’re not home? Welp.
Why did we have that setup? Estonia over 20 years ago was still pretty poor. This whole ADSL thing was pretty new too, it cost quite a bit. I found an article from that period and turns out in 2003 there were three main providers. Starman at 149 EEK per month, Eesti Telefon at 345 and Uninet at 800. I have no idea about Uninet, but Starman was only available in a couple of cities and even in those cities I think it was mostly just apartment buildings. Minimum monthly salary BEFORE tax was 2160 EEK. First 1000 EEK per month was income tax free, on the other 1160 EEK you’d be taxed 26% so 301 EEK. The remaining 1859 EEK, and this is with only income tax deducted, nothing else, is equivalent to 119.16 euros. 345 EEK for internet is 22 euros and change. Imagine spending 18% of your income on an Internet connection!
Still, a computer was becoming necessary for schoolwork. Researching subjects online, printing out homework, etc. If you didn’t have one at home, you’d need to use computer class at the end of the day, or go to the library. Having one at home got me into gaming and tinkering with software and the tinkering got me into programming at the age of ~13 and you can guess what I do for a living now.
Yeah, the session token expiry time seems to be something really short. In comparison, Steam has asked me to re-login like 3 times over the last 7 or 8 years I’ve used it (I used to be an active hater and only had it for HL2 and claiming the free games like Portal).
I’ve given up on the free games. I’m sure some are great, but I have enough of a backlog on Steam, I don’t need more indie games. Plus I may as well pay for indie games - it’s the AA and AAA games I want to grab for free.
Now they still have some great AAA games every now and then that I would actually like to grab for free, but due to how much stuff they put out that isn’t interesting to me, I’ve given up looking at it. Doesn’t help that I have to re-login every time, regardless of whether I’m using EGS or Heroic (which is a way better launcher and the one I have installed right now).
At this point I think I need to invest some time in getting an RSS client set up and getting notifications for EGS free games and other things I enjoy that I keep forgetting about. I guess I had notifications when I had the EGS client installed on Windows and it ran on the background, now I only fire up Heroic when I realize it exists.
Edit: No idea why I didn’t do this sooner, I already have Akgregator installed and found this rss feed for free games from a reddit comment. It’s a Steam community and posts games from several sources, including Epic.
It looks like my opinion of it is vindicated!
What’s been the least horrible Steven Seagal movie for you?
Bonus fun fact: in Estonia we sometimes call him Steven Seakael which means Steven Pigneck. Besides an obvious play on the name, it’s also because he’s a bit on the heavier side for a martial artist so he’s got a bit of a thick neck
I’m not terribly into anime but my friend got me to watch Cromartie High School and I couldn’t stop laughing. Do suggest smoking a bit of the funny herb first, it’ll be even better.
I wish I could’ve gone to high school as Freddie Mercury on a white horse.
Now insert the straw
