The ford was supposed to be in dock for maintenance and swapping out crew right now.

It’s having a lot of minor issues right now, and I wonder how much of that is that systems not getting the maintenance they need, and how much of that is due to crew ignoring routine tasks, or actively causing problems because they’re pissed they’re being forced to stay out longer.

And then you have E bike companies producing lead bricks that are non-functional without the motor doing 90% of the work. Or with the massive motorcycle seats that make pedaling actually impossible.

It was, in many ways, all the worst parts of their previous games compiled in to one, with none of the redeeming elements. Like, it seems the internal decision makers have an extremely distorted view of why they have been successful in the past, and the actual production line seemed completely disorganized and dysfunctional. The design and goals were bad, and the execution was bad.

They should have learned from the criticism of oblivion, Skyrim, Fallout 3, 4 and 76, but it seems like they discarded all criticism(genuine or otherwise) on the grounds that the games were successful. And only listened to praise (whether it was wide spread, or from a narrow audience).

Maybe because it wasn’t a success they’ll actually listen to criticism and take the time to sort through it, or maybe they’ll just assume the issue was the space theme and will continue down the procedural shooter looter slop path.

Keep Hormuz closed pls. I want higher gas prices so there is a direct and immediate economic incentive to burn less of it, maybe convince people to scrap their pavement princess pickups.

Just looking at the policies they’ve supported and advocated for… I’d say that talarico is maybe a little bit more progressive in some ways.

I think in policy terms they’re roughly equal, it’s just a question of who will bring out more voters.

So, rust can do a lot of the same stuff as C and its various derivatives (further referred to as just C for simplicity here) Increasingly it’s gained prominence doing stuff that used to be only done in C. A lot of the core utilities and Linux kernel are written in C. Now, there has been some folks writing contributions to the Linux kernel in rust, and Ubuntu has done some work to rewrite some of the core utilities in rust.

I’m not privy to the deep lore (mailing list drama) but, my understanding is that there are a lot of people throughly opposed to using rust for important low level stuff in Linux and apparently some people who want to rewrite everything in rust.

I suspect the reality is that… as rust has gained prominence in other areas, some people have developed a lot of experience with it and are more comfortable with it than they are with C. They have thus advocated for using rust to contribute to things. People who are more comfortable with C on the other hand are frustrated when they try to parse a language they’re not as familiar with. And thus, many debates have raged over the qualities of one over the other, and salt has been scattered.

Like one side here has prepared and planned extensively to fight this war, with great awareness of what the opponent can do and built a strategy to work with in the constraints of what they can do to best exploit the vulnerabilities of their opponent. The other side just did a line of coke and smashed their forehead in to a big red button that says “fuck this shit up”.

Display on my glasses? That would be neat. Camera and microphone on my glasses? Why the fuck would I want that.

It’s a devil’s bargain. Except that the benefit is pretty slim next to the obvious cost.

Anthropic is just trying to cover their ass from liability.

Ether the user who put the bot in a position to do something illegal is liable, or the person who made the bot that did something illegal is liable. But 90% of the reason hegseth want to use the bots is to avoid liability when doing illegal stuff, and if anthropic is saying “hey it’s not our fault if you break the law using our product, we told you not to use it like that” then they’re basically denying the main use case for hegseth, who really really wants a get out of jail free card for breaking the law.

I would say It depends a lot of the type of apple and the final texture you want. Something like a granny smith or a honey crisp will hold their texture better. Something like a red delicious or mcIntosh will break down quickly. If you want the apples to hold texture add them towards the end and preference the former, if you want them to totally break down the later will be better.

I don’t think them breaking down would be very good though as they will not create a smooth sauce that I at least associate with a Japanese curry.

Yah, they’re supposed to go in at the very end, if not off the heat outright, there are a lot of ingredients in them that are heat sensitive and will break down or cook off with long exposure to heat.

Most people I’ve talked to in real life have complained about how large phones are and wish there were still smaller phones available. Maybe I’m just some gravitational nexus of small phone likers, but I think there is some other factor at play other than consumer preference.

Perhaps the issue is that they sell too well and canibalize the larger phone market, which probably has higher margins, sales people at stores often also get payed a commission so they probably have an incentive to nudge people towards larger phones.
