And most franchises are required to purchase their raw ingredients from the parent corporation, which means that even if they choose to be flexible on their prices their baseline costs are still set by a global conglomerate.

I wouldn't expect people who don't have the self-discipline needed to cook a frozen pizza in the oven to be capable of organizing a large-scale national rebellion.

If you look around and are informed then you can easily purchase drives that are designed for Nas use. I shucked three eight terabyte Western digital external hard drives and they were all WD reds, but because of the deal they were running they were $60 a piece cheaper inside of the shell than they were outside of the shell.

And, just like people who install solar panels on their homes tend to use more energy than people who do not, finding a tricky way to buy additional time for us will only exacerbate and prolong how long we are destructive as a species to the planet that we live on.

You are correct, but I hope we can all agree there is a special place in hell reserved for people who interfere with health workers and cause death in the process.

That's right on par with raping a nun, or a priest diddling a kid in my book.

I can move my fingertip joints without moving the rest of my finger.

I can also ear rumble, it is not tied to my blinking at all, but if I vibrate my eyes while my ears are rumbling they both move at the same ~60hz frequency.

It's called shucking and it happens a lot especially in the home server home lab community.

What happens when the heart just stops by the frames. Went through a breakup not too long ago, just feeling The vibes now.

Good point! I was thinking kind of like giraffe, they obviously must have some sort of like very long breathing tube to make it from their head to their lungs.

Maybe centaurs have like some sort of gill system or whatever that would be for land walking mammals?

There's no way that a human heart would be able to pump enough blood to supply the full vascular needs of a thousand pound centaur.

Most likely, the human halfs heart is more of a vestigial organ or more of an assisting organ to help ensure that even under strenuous cardio that the brain receives enough blood flow to operate optimally.

The lung system though is definitely a weird one. I would be more inclined to believe that there are no lungs in the centaurs human half, maybe the areas that are lungs in a human would be something like a cud sack or some sort of extra biliary devices to increase the amount of acidity to break down their largely herbivorous appetite.

That's a pretty standard issue with grid tied solar systems. You save a lot of money by not having batteries, but when the neighborhood goes down you go down with it.

Plus you don't want to be pumping electricity into a downed power system, you could actually end up hurting a line man who is working on the system.

However, and both of these issues can be resolved by adding in a generator and a whole house cut off system.

In a power outage scenario, all you would have to do is throw the crossover switch and crank the generator. The generator would produce enough energy to reactivate the solar system.

 

Like sometimes I'll make a post and I go back and I reread it and I'm like somebody way smarter than me wrote this, and sometimes I'll go back and reread it and wonder how the fuck was I so stupid as to write this?

Is that the way it is for you also, or am I just weirder than the average person?

 

I think AI replacing artists is going to be a good thing in the long run.

Right now, if you want custom artwork made without the use of AI you have to either criminally underpay an artist on Fiverr or pay an artist hundreds of dollars to make one piece which you may not like.

I think the cat is out of the bag on AI generated art pieces and there's no way to put it back in, and so future artists will use a combination of their actual art skills and their ability to work with an AI system to create entirely new and currently nearly impossible art pieces, and there is an entire field of unexplored possibilities waiting to be tapped by Future artists.

AI can't make new art.

All it can do is repurpose pieces of art other people have made, just like Auto-Tune can make you sing on pitch but it can't make you a good singer.
