There’s a YouTuber (Technology Connections) who’s really into heat pumps, which is the tech responsible for refrigerators and air conditioners.

And she’s only getting half of the controls with no coordination between the two. She doesn’t know how strong of a stream you’re giving her and you can’t adjust it based on where she plans to point your dick.

I’ve noticed that it sometimes smells like epoxy glue. I wonder if we’re thinking of the same scent.

Exactly

It is wrong because the highlighted portion of the excerpt is supposed to directly answer the question. This one doesn’t.

If only learning about bugs made them less gross to accidentally squish under your feet.

So the characters are still words, right?

Most likely yes. All characters in Chinese are defined jointly by the way it’s written, the pronunciation, and meaning. You can’t invent new characters like you would a new English word and have something that can be read out loud because there’s no system for deriving pronunciation from the written character itself.

I say most likely because there are still some characters that are phonetic in that their meaning is just the sound, but these don’t cover the whole spectrum of possible sounds in the language as far as I know. They also wouldn’t look as nice in tattoo form since they all use the same radical.

Maybe chickpeas are expensive where you live, or maybe you miscalculated. Either way, take a look at my numbers for comparison.

We can get a 3.63kg bag of chickpeas here for $7.49 (CAD). Assuming you fulfill all your Calorie and protein needs from chickpeas alone (2500 Calories and 150g protein per day), it comes out to about $600/year. That’s $1.64/day. In order to be $10/day, you’d have to pay 6x as much for your chickpeas, so that same 3.63kg bag would have to cost $45.50.

More variety in your diet is likely to always be superior to less. That goes for both kids and adults. The trouble with younger kids is that deficiencies can impact their development and have more severe long term consequences, and they’re also less capable of seeking out foods to fill that gap.

Having come from the world of C++, this was a huge step up.

In theory, the value they create is in handling all the home maintenance. Of course, many of them don’t do their jobs in practice.

I mean, this is how businesses work in general. If you don’t buy their products/services, then they wouldn’t be able to continue providing them.

I understand that we’re trying to draw attention to exploitative landlords, but if anyone can afford to keep their property regardless of whether or not you pay rent, it’s the exploitative ones.

we can only do that in our fiction

At present, yes. The hypothetical is in the future, possibly in one where we’ve developed interstellar travel and we can be the ones visiting the alien planet.

since they are by definition far beyond our technology

How so? Aliens aren’t going to suddenly come into existence and have super-human technology in that same instant.

Before I started adblocking, I’d get “relevant” ads in that I can understand how someone of my age/gender might like it, but they’re never things I’d purchase myself. I just want a mostly empty home with as little visual stimulation as possible, and buying more stuff doesn’t help with that.

So yeah, I’m definitely saying “ads don’t work for me”, but it’s probably only because these companies refuse to make ads targeted to people like me.

In the context of the American general public, a healthy burger would require a very different ratio of meat to bun to veggies, at which point most people probably wouldn’t call it a burger anymore.

there are traits exhibited by conscious entities which we don’t observe in those which lack consciousness.

Implying we have a way of determining whether an entity is conscious or not. That’s the entire point of contention here.
