- Comment on How do you gently tell someone you only want to keep seeing them if it's on a dating level? 3 days ago:
Sometimes things end because someone wants something the other doesn’t. That’s ok. It’s life.
But if you never take the shot, then you’re keeping something alive in hopes of some potential future breakthrough, and that’s not fair to you (or them) either.
So, rip the bandaid off and commit. If that’s not what she wants, that’s on her, and you can move on.
And please, please, please remember— her mental health issues are her own and not yours to solve or navigate like a minefield.

Proper pest control. Hire a professional to complete a service as often as is needed. Mine comes once a quarter and covers both inside and outside of the house. Very convenient.

As far as I’m aware, the only mandated and enforced expiration dates by law are for baby food manufacturers.
Everything else is a vendor suggestion.

Hooray, I have better credit than the United States. I should ask if my provider will up my limit to $1 Trillion. I’m good for it.

This. It takes a bit to figure out the rhythm, but it’s not hard once you know how it feels. If you do, definitely be prepared to be frustrated at least once and stall the car at least more than once (I know I did)!
Once you figure it out, though, it can be much more fun and engaging (and sometimes more annoying) than an automatic.

Apart from the admittedly over the top hyperbole about the NES, what portion of my sarcasm would you say qualifies as a strawman?

Don’t worry, you can upgrade to Duolingo Max for even more money and have the AI explain it. (Seriously.)
- Comment on China's latest flying car prototype showcases a breakthrough in urban air mobility, offering a glimpse into how low-altitude flight could soon integrate with everyday transport. 1 month ago:
Other than the takeoff and landing, cars have to deal with those obstacles as well.
A computer running a citywide automated traffic system for cars would have all the same complexity, without the ability to separate traffic in three dimensions.
- Comment on China's latest flying car prototype showcases a breakthrough in urban air mobility, offering a glimpse into how low-altitude flight could soon integrate with everyday transport. 1 month ago:
There are a whole lot less obstacles and unknowns in the air, as well as more planes (ha!) of separation available than a car.
When flying, you don’t really need to worry much about random pedestrians, for example.
If the entire system were completely automated, from the car all the way to ATC, and it’s essentially a taxi that you just tell what location to go to and it handles the rest… well that’s basically air traffic today minus the automated ATC part. (That isn’t to diminish pilots at all; just that I think it’d be a lot easier, in general, to replace a pilot than a taxi driver with automation. )

- Comment on Is it time to ring the alarm on internet door cameras? 3 months ago:
I think you only need the controller or phone app for setup or config changes. Though it is easier, in my opinion, to just run a controller. You can (at least last time I checked) still self host one if you like. If you’re just doing network config and monitoring, you don’t need much in terms of performance.

Yep. This is the way. G4 Pro is pretty good, too.

- Comment on Will pilots-less airplanes happens first, or driver-less cars? Why? 5 months ago:
Airplanes, though I suspect they will never be truly without someone to assist in case of emergency.
Cars have to contend with a number of random obstacles and unique challenges. Planes have defined runways and taxiways and, via autopilot and GPS, their flight paths are relatively easily defined and controlled.
The sky over one city is pretty much like any other. Main Street not so much.

Honestly a decent 1080p presentation is still more than adequate for the vast majority of content consumed at most homes. Otherwise completely agree.
