I definitely agree with your second point. And I find it ridiculous that a company can ever claim to “own” your genetic information. It’s why I’ve never dared sign up for any kind of genetic ancestry sites. I can’t give that personal of information away for free, let alone pay for it to be taken

Whether this will hold up in court is a bit murky. But without a large, laborious court battle, they can and will sell the data and they are “legally” allowed to

As the old saying goes: “BROJOB! BROJOB! CHOOCHOO!”

Don’t let your dreams be dreams

For me, I respect female characters who are written strong but not mean or “buff”. Your character doesn’t need to be a dick or on steroids to be strong. A strong person can be kind and compassionate, just not capitulate under pressure. I also don’t believe being “independent” means you can’t love someone and lean on them in times of need, it just means you aren’t defined by the relationship.

I do well enough to comfortably support my wife and me. I have a retirement plan, put a small amount into saving, and don’t buy things on credit (besides to pay them off immediately for rewards points). I have paid off my car and it should last me a good long while. I do have student loans outstanding but I pay those down and my work provides a stipend each month that effectively doubles my payment on that. I have some small investment accounts to play the stock market, but not life-changing money. We have plenty of money leftover after the mortgage to live just as comfortably as I would like.

This all being said, I am an outlier in the current economy. Most are paid too little for too much work and I would happily pay more for most products if I thought the money was going to the employees, but I know they are given the smallest amount possible.

What in the world? You are in a relationship with them. You can’t live with, sleep in the same bed with, be best friends with, and do sexual stuff with someone and not be in a relationship! What do you think a relationship is?!

You say you don’t want a relationship with them but what on Earth would you change if you entered into a “relationship” with them? Just your perspective and a label from the sounds of it.

I feel as though you need to reassess where you’re actually at in this. Think about what a relationship means to you and why this person cannot fit that role for you.

And above all, you need to talk to them about this and ask if they think you’re in a relationship. Because you might need to “break up” with them regardless of how you feel about it

CDN would be my guess as well. Maybe not different, but they would definitely have their ads queued up on every CDN possible while the video content is unlikely to be on your nearest CDN unless it’s a Mr. Beast video

Everyone here talking about blocking for political reasons and bad behavior while I’m over here blocking because you post unfunny memes.

I blocked several users who post far-left memes because they just sucked and weren’t even funny in the slightest, they just wanted to get their point across rather than make a funny memr

I heard that he was an alcoholic during the experiment, hence why the doctors were baffled by the state of his liver after one month.

But that adds more to the mystery of why I like it - I never believed the food would do that to you in the first place

Everyone has about the same answers here, and I agree with many, but I’ve got a weird one:

Super Size Me

Something about it just compels me. And it always makes me want McDonald’s afterwards… I truly struggle to explain why.

As of late? It’s been shit for years.

Somewhat same. Followed a girl I had a crush on to a local school. Met my wife during my last semester, and she’s been my best friend ever since.

And I never even dated the girl I had a crush on…

Love this channel, I’ve watched his videos for a couple years now. His scientific method can leave a lot to be desired at times, but it’s still great information and I always keep them in mind.

This is one of the more iconic ones, in my mind, but he’s still going strong today

It could also be the language choice, which one are you utilizing? I could see some languages having a worse experience than others.

I’ve found it is exceptionally smart with bash. It often knows what to do better than I can, because I’m no master at bash. I’m proficient enough to know when it’s right though, and it’s usually pretty on point.

Like most have already said, the auto complete is top tier while the chat is hallucination-riddled and not always useful. I find that if I’m asking Chat a question, my problem is already so complex that the AI struggles to answer it without the entire context of the application. It will give me unrelated answers, fake answers, or extremely basic ones that miss the broader context. It’s really a coin flip on whether it will help.

I have also had the autocorrect make a mistake once and that was extremely annoying. It was the type of mistake I would have made but took way longer to figure out because I trusted it too much

Blocked.

I’ve already made a Smeagol reference in this thread, but perhaps one more is in order…

Oh wow that’s actually a really good point!

Now prepare for it to be dismissed! People are too dug in at this point, there’s no going back. The trenches have been dug.

But what if I wants the whole bread, Precious

Dota players will pronounce “Abaddon” (a hero’s name) like “ah-buh-don” and it’s really bizarre. In their defense though, many aren’t native English speakers
