Carney giving Trump the bird is obviously not the play

Maybe if it were gold plated, and labelled “peas prize”

The problem is could you get any of those manufacturing jobs?

Previously I added to my routine, to ask two stupid queries of ai every day, because that was the metric we were judged on. I can get that out of the way quickly, and get to my work.

Now we have to use a new ai tool that has a lot more telemetry, thanks Microsoft. Unfortunately I don’t know what metric they are using and the tool spies on everything. I can’t even just not use the ai features because the tool is horrible

I’ve been trying to comment more, but we have to post as well

This is not a bad idea. One of my biggest categories here are interesting looking recipes. The problem is they go through a lot of effort to make them unusable - blocking printing and bookmarking. I starters just keeping tabs open when that was useful but realistically most of them auto-reload to show more ads do as soon as the generated link expires they’re gone

There was that announcement about building out freight track up to Churchill as a port for natural resources trade directly with Europe. It’s just an announcement, but a fascinating idea

Cool, thanks. So much more readable

Interesting idea, and a great money saver! I find it strange that portable induction cooktops are so much cheaper and at least seem more technically advanced than a fill sized range.

But yeah, more clutter and probably not great for selling a house. Not for me

I actually did see this as one of my choices - looks nice, fits my requirements better than the one I got, and is $1500 cheaper!

But that stupid horizontal display is stupid. It meant the range sticks out an extra inch or more and I really couldn’t do that in my kitchen. It also means smaller burner space than the one I got - it doesn’t need to be much but a little extra room to move pans around rather than crowd them

Thanks. Seems like a positive step

Right. where’s the actual content, the wording not treating us like idiots? What is the actual improvement?

Yes and no. My understanding is an air fryer is just more convection. No actual definition but some brands have both convection and air fry. But I couldn’t find that with an induction top.

This does have “convection bake” vs “convection roast”, so I still need to understand what distinction they’re making

I’ll figure it out as I cook more. I do have a countertop air fryer that I was hoping to get rid of (I need the counter space) that I used a lot for chicken breasts and stuff. But the ultimate test is tofu. I’ve never been able to make tofu right so if I can use the convection oven to get the right consistency, I’m golden

With US being the leading oil producer and stealing all of Venezuela’s’s oil, we’re positioning ourselves to control the world’s supply …… as the world yawns and continues moving to the future of tech that we helped develop then threw away

Given all the cuts to science, deportation of scientists, and blocking student researchersin the past year alone, I’d claim the US deserves half the credit for China’s impending science ascendancy

We’re not losing the competition, we’re throwing a tantrum and scattering the game pieces …… somehow thinking that’s the same as winning

I really hate how so many of these articles feel like they need to dumb it down with this “artificial sun” imagery. It feels so condescending. I’d rather learn more about the latest progress with nuclear fusion

I just got a WiFi stove that should be marketed as one of those bad ideas.

My requirements were

• induction burners
• air fryer

The closest I could find had all this “smart” crap, and convection oven was as close as I could get to air fryer

People have accepted heat pumps as 400% efficient. This is the same.

And realistically, how do you describe in an approachable way “you experience what would look like an impossible number if we had continued as before”, where the “if” is key, as is “you experience”

It’s misleading wording by arse-technica, not Bose. The quoted wording from Nosebis correct and it looks like they’re doing the right thing. After originally announcing they would be dumb speakers, now they’ll continue to be useful and third party apps can continue to use them. Applaud Bose for doing the right thing

Direct your Boos to arse-technica

I wasn’t affected by the Sonos App fiasco because I don’t use it. I mostly use the speakers through Spotify, and occasionally through Home Assistant. I only need the app to set my wake schedule but once it was done, I didn’t need to go back.

Won’t this allow the same? With the API, you should be able to continue using your speakers with local automation, assuming someone wants to implement that.

There are a lot of reasons that wouldn’t fly in the US:

• too tiny compared to the behemoths around. I’d be afraid
• doesn’t say speed but a lot of “city” cars have city speed limits: most people use high speed roads at least some of the time
• as average new car prices pass $50k, maybe people are less likely to have multiple cars than in the past
• legacy manufacturers only build smaller runs of higher profit trims, and have successfully bought protection from competition

When I was married, I did always have a small cheap commuter car, like a Civic, and ensure my ex had the big car that’s also More comfortable on road trips. But I’m no longer married so can’t justify multiple cars. My one car does need to serve the occasional road trip, so I’m more comfortable with my current 300+ mile range.

But there continue to be more full sized pickups on the road and those are what I notice with worse and worse driving.truck guys used to have pride in their driving skills but now they’re some of the worst and just seem arrogant that “I’m bigger than you so can do what I want”. I don’t even think I’d feel safe in my civic anymore and certainly not my old Miata , much less something smaller.

I’m really fascinated by the Slate truck’s simple and modular concept. If that succeeds I’ll be tempted to get that as a second car even with its limited range - it would add capability, a spare resource, and range is plenty for commuting
