The o is a head and the 7 is an arm/hand. It’s a text form of 🫡.

This attack hit airbases all over Russia. Smuggling operators into Siberia to fly the drones seems unreasonable.

General update to the current version, with the security fixes applied to all other supported versions.

JWO hasn’t shut down. The system got polished enough for them to sell it to other companies, so they don’t need their own test-platform locations anymore.

JWO and similar systems do not reduce labor. The people working cashier become customer service attendants. These systems are valuable when the issue is throughput and sales are being lost at peak times. Airport convenience stores and stadium concession stands, for example, can get significantly higher revenue for the same footprint.

On the other hand, the only way to get good training data is to generate data indistinguishable from the real-world scenario and then have humans mark it up the way you want the system to do it. You might as well have the data actually be from the real world and recoup some of the costs with sales.

As noted in the YT comments, you can also set your brownie pan in a larger pan of water to nagate the hot-metal effect. Might not be quite as precise, but way easier.

If your primary usecase is text, don’t get a color e-reader. There are significant downsides to the display quality for very little benefit.

If you are wanting to read comics, manga, or illustrated guides, then you will want the color.

I’m a big fan of the Kobo Libra design. It’s friendly to software mods and has a rail for holding it with a nice big button that sits under the thumb for page turning.

I find that the Kindle-style thin bezel gives no comfortable way to hold an e-reader since the only good place to put your thumb is on the screen, the primary input method. It leads to a bad experience and turns people off from e-readers.

I tossed KOReader on my Kobo Libra 2 recently after a year of thinking it didn’t add anything useful. Oh boy, was I wrong.

It’s so much faster, I can dial in the formatting exactly how I want it, and I can customize the inputs to my liking. Page turn only on physical buttons, tap a corner to toggle dark mode, etc.

They didn’t take a pirate game and slap the AC name on it. They took an AC game with ship mechanics, dialed down the assassin, and dialed up the ships.

It’s a direct iteration on AC3 in every way.

This article is useless. The only source hyperlink links to another article on this site. The two articles disagree on whether the feature saves fuel or not with neither linking a source. Both spend a lot of time whinging about the feature being annoying.

People also can develop T1 well after birth. It’s often caused by a mis-targeted immune response killing insulin production, as happened with me at 27 and nearly killed me.

The drop in murder rate is fake. The government adopted a no-body-no-crime policy where as long as the gangs dispose of their corpses, nothing will be recorded.

Bukele has been backed by the gangs his entire career.

From early recalls, it looks like the product was sold direct by the grower and to Sysco, a major distributor. A huge portion of restaurants use Sysco, and Sysco hasn’t specified what states they sent impacted product to in the recalls I’ve seen.

I was digging through my purchases this morning looking at the recalled Sysco items. I have a few places on the west side of the US using a few of the items, but those distribution centers were sourcing from a different grower.

Food goes through so many hands that early-stage contamination recalls tend to take a while to cascade out to things that are useful to a end-user.

I just started the last book yesterday, having read through the rest over the past two weeks.

If you like sci-fi and explorations of anarchic capitalism, I highly recommend them.

They didn’t. They made mothers able to use HOV lanes without a second occupant, blocking the GOP’s attempts to use HOV lanes to normalize fetal personhood.

He wrote 14 episodes of Alf and created Thornberries. The rest of those were single episodes.

The Simpsons episode was from season 2. Homer vs. Lisa and the 8th Commandment, where Homer gets pirate cable service.

I’d have to go with the ubiquitous plastic bottle cap. A metal cap doesn’t reseal properly and just punching a hole in the side of the packaging is a no-go for obvious reasons.

And a 3! (Extreme Stunts)

I remember both fondly. I should spoil that memory some day…

It seems a bit odd. The main rotor imparts an opposite spin on the body. Tha tail rotor is there to counteract that spin by blowing sideways. A horizontal one would have to use just its spin, not getting the benefit of the air mass being pushed sideways.

It has very little gameplay. It’s a few mini games spread across a janky early-3D scene.

Lego Island 2 is much more game.
