I’ve seen Brilliant Earth around for a while if you want lab grown, but I’ve never bought from them personally.
I’d also recommend a Philadelphia jeweler that ships pretty quickly and has always had good products that I have bought from several times, Steven Singer.
Because phones are still not able to shoot as well as a professional camera, never mind the skills needed to frame or light the scene correctly.
How does it increase earning potential? Best case it would flood the market with shit and result in less income due to either dilution of spending amongst thousands of idiots using “ai” or destroy the need for a market in the first place. If everything is ai why would I pay the “artist” instead of just going to stablediffusion or something similar?
The problem is everything is a massive chain so as one goes, so goes them all so to speak. I have Kroger, Albertsons, and Walmart as my only choices for grocery store. I don’t see any chance that if Kroger does this Albertsons (assuming the proposed Kroger Albertsons merger fails) and Walmart don’t do the same.
Tl;dr it doesn’t need to benefit the customer if the customer has no real choice in where they shop
My town has three stores, Kroger, Safeway, and Walmart. As one goes so go they all most likely on this one so idk how I’d even begin to think about avoiding this longer term…
Do you have something to contradict it?
Edit: well I can’t find anything refuting this poore-nemecek they referenced besides a correction issued to the paper itself so guess I’ll just link it here in case anyone else is interested like I was.
I would think Bluetooth or plugging it in once in a blue moon for a firmware/schedule update like the good old days would be far preferable to anything that could connect them to the internet. I’d much rather air gapped and slightly inconvenient than internet enabled spyware all over my house.
Why do these things need to be internet connected in the first place?
A) you can survive without precooling or set it to start before getting deep into the store.
B)if you want that feature fine, but leave it off everyone else’s car! No cell connections should be installed by default like this. It’s a walking cve list waiting to happen.
Ubuntu is great for works out of the box kind of tasks, I have it on an old MacBook Pro 2012. With a free Ubuntu pro account I can get security updates for 22.10 lts until 2032! It’s already starting to act its age so security updates but a frozen OS helps not further tax it as software gets more complex. Point being there’s a niche even if in most other cases I might prefer something different.
The first time I saw my wife with makeup was our wedding day. Since then at most once every few months for work and then only maybe eye shadow and lipstick. Safe to say I prefer no makeup. Let the natural beauty shine on its own!
Report this egregious infraction on my privacy to who? The Illuminati?
I get to handle over $1 million in musical instruments every day for my job.
(I’m a church organist and pipe organs are insanely expensive)
That is my biggest fear health wise. Losing $7,800 in premiums and out of pocket plus copays for medicine and office visits would be painful to say the least
We pay about $300 a month in premiums for healthcare policy provided by the employer. We’re limited to 4.2k out of pocket but nothing at all is covered but the annual physician before that (medications are seperate and always have at least a copay).
Good years it’s fine, but a few years ago I had a skin growth they scraped to test for cancer and got billed $2,000 after insurance’s “negotiated” price that took a nice chunk of savings to cover. I’d gladly switch to any other system than the one we have here in the US…
It does if the marriage is good lol
Arch on a Chromebook, macOS on a MacBook Air, and FreeBSD on the desktop.
I think you might have meant powercastco.com
powercast.com just hangs for me and never completes the request.
NBC news and cnn have also picked this up so appears to be real yes.
