On a related note: every search engine under the sun now has AI built in EXCEPT the one called "Ask Jeeves". If any of them should have been 100% AI, it was this one. And instead, it fucking died in the middle of all this.
I see you. Not enough people are going to get this one.
Right here. I love my wired headphones.
There's kind of a catch here that explains why wireless has taken off. A lot of people do not, for whatever reason, respect the integrity of the cable and the strain relief at either end. Wires are this artificial abomination, a means to an end, and something to be contended with rather than cared for. They're stored as a tangled mess, and recovered and un-tangled in a stream of stressed movements and much swearing. The result is broken, bent, crimped, strained, and ultimately broken wires.
Instead, wires must be cared for in specific ways and that is a skill that just isn't taught to everyone. It hurts my soul every time I notice this.
Of course they're not using them: have you seen what Telsa charges for their solar tiles? Tesla can't afford that.
IDK, but it does make sense?
For business that were in on the grift, and/or just gouging customers "because tariffs", it absolutely made sense.
What good would giving 250 million people each $640 do?
You say that, but something a lot like that already happened: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_Stimulus_Act_of_2008
Most taxpayers below the income limit received a rebate of at least $300 per person ($600 for married couples filing jointly). Eligible taxpayers received, along with their individual payment, $300 per dependent child under the age of 17. The payment was equal to the payer's net income tax liability, but could not exceed $600 (for a single person) or $1200 (married couple filing jointly)
Most everyone I knew spent it on HDTVs. Economic stimulus indeed.
Did you have fun this weekend?
Naw. I took too much of the good stuff and I wound up seeing god again. Ruined a perfectly good trip. It was awful.
Yes, but Manga reading order aside: isn't this particular woman also a yokai, and a rather malevolent kidnapping one at that?

She exclusively preys on children and young adults, tapping into a primal fear of child abduction.

Ah, that explains why the article smells like an LLM wrote it.
