Oh, thank god.

I truly hope that is correct, but if he’s better than the guy “in front of him,” he should play. Period. Even if it’s at wing. If he makes the team better, he should play.

Sounds a lot like my Covid right now.

All they need to do is bring back pork. Congress needs to get back to making laws and earmarks made that happen. With the winner take all we have now, there is no reason to compromise. Seemed like a good idea at the time, but who knew that it was pork that was keeping this country going. This era of presidential decree is awful.

This country is going to be so much better off once he is finally gone from the political landscape. Hopefully the Constitution will still be a thing at that time. His ability to bring out the worst in everybody is absolutely amazing.

Totally agree. I’m happier at home with a pretty decent case of Covid than I would be if I were at work dealing with the whims of arrogant idiots. Pssst, those are not people. They are chat bots.

I wish there was a way to turn that damn thing off. My light has been on for over 10 years and the bells go off every time I start the truck ever since I rotated the tires the first time. Now, all the batteries in the sensors are dead and it’s like $250 per tire to replace them. Screw that. The air gauge I bought was 10 bucks.

What?!?!?!!! You get 20k out of pads?!! Pro tip. Learn to do your own brakes. It’s a relatively simple job with pretty basic tools. Takes about a hour. Use the money you saved on something fun.

If I didn’t have Covid and was running a fever, this excessive heat warning would really be a bummer. As it is, it’s kinda nice.

This brought back to mind the most memorable concert I have ever seen at Artpark. It was a jazz super group. Herbie Hancock, Dave Holland, Jack DeJohnette, and Pat Metheny, all of whom I had been listening to for years on their own. I want to say the opener was Spiro Jira, but I can’t remember for sure. It might have been Gamalon. We had lawn seats and were doing what you do on lawn seats at jazz shows in the summer, so, feelin good. There was a weather front whose line went east-west and was moving directly east-west. After an initial downpour, I think it sprinkled twice. During the show, if you laid your head back in the grass and looked to the south, it was a crystal clear starry sky. Then, looking north to the stage, there was a raging lightening storm with the show going on at the bottom, but we stayed dry. If that wasn’t enough, during one of the tunes, the setting sun broke through the clouds, underneath the lightening storm. If only there were iPhones in 1990… Oh yeah, the band was pretty amazing, as well. I know Artpark has that side stage now, but do they still hold concerts in the main building?

Outdoor concerts in WNY in the summertime,… not sure it gets any better than that.

By the time people realize that AI is self aware, it will be too late.

We already have AI writing code that human coders don’t know what it is. We’ve got drones that self assess threats and are authorized to strike. It’s only a matter of time before AI sees us as the threat or manipulates the algorithms even more to get us to do it ourselves.

I think we have finally achieved singularity: an AI written article about AI generated mascots. I give humanity five, maybe six years, tops.

Interesting look back at people’s takes. Really though that that thread was a lot longer ago.

So,… at least for now, we were right.

That sucks. Sorry. I’m guessing maybe both? All I want to do is go fishing for those damn northern pike. Took the day off tomorrow, asked a buddy who had to get an aid for his ailing wife,… nope. Gotta go to a funeral instead. As Weave has already stated, “***** cancer” .

So far, they’ve only hit on the first E.

Life is about living, not things.

While I agree with you, it works both ways. I’ve seen Drs google stuff. I’ve also seen them drag there holier than throw feet because they didn’t listen to us then have to apologize to us with their tail between their legs because they almost killed our kid. Just sayin’. You had me at “human beings.”

If the Sabres are finally worth me spending money this year, I might start with one of those hoodies. That’s a pretty good looking sweatshirt.

Already hot. Yesterday was the hottest yet. No way we were cooking. The car read 105 when we went out to pick up dinner. I could just gotten out and done hot yoga.

Doesn’t that actually mean that they are the second “least hated”? I can see that. People usually hate teams that beat their team all the time. Either that, or it’s gotta be pity.

I’m pretty sure that everything with a battery that is “charging” right now is actually powering the grid because of the heat.

Stable MRIs. Didn’t even realize I was bunched up about it til I got the good news.
