150 pounds makes about 600 average burgers, you reckon?

Get a bigger monitor, just like the software dev has.

Yep. Texas does that because of a state law that says any landowner with property adjacent to a highway has a right to access that highway.

I can get to 22 in the foreground of the pic with some lanes underneath others with the flyover ramps.

You’re allowed to use any mode of locomotion in a track race, including skipping, crawling, or moonwalking, as long as it’s under your own power.

Oh yeah. I remember all the warnings plastered all over the X11 config file about how dangerous the settings were if you got them wrong.

Whew. I can’t imagine any Sunny D consumer being satisfied with a real orange flavor.

I can’t imagine trying to put $12 in quarters into that machine.

No it’s orange skin, from too much cheap spray-on tan. The engineered hair artifact is pretty blond.

Except the “emergency capsule” is all of them, including Starliner. Because Starliner is perfectly capable of returning to earth safely.

Because every thruster that has shut down has hot fired okay, and the known helium leaks still leave enough margin to cover several multiples of the 5 hours or so of RCS operation that you need to get to landing.

It was a successful test of the drive termination system.

Discarded corn cobs and pages from the Sears Roebuck catalog. At least in midwestern USA.

My understanding is that the second Distance campaign is mostly recycled Nitronic Rush levels.

I mean, Adolf Hitler was a world leader with a predilection for speed, and look where he ended up. Makes sense to me.

When the gp’s book says that C is a third generation language: I would guess the first generation is Fortran and the second generation contains ALGOL and BCPL. C was heavily influenced by BCPL. (get it? C comes after B)

The deal with LLMs is that it’s very difficult to say which piece of training material went into which output. Everything gets chopped up and mixed, and it’s computationally difficult to run backwards.

My understanding of the image generators is that they operate one pixel at a time too, looking only at neighboring pixels. So in that sense, it’s not correct to say they understand the context of anything.

Like, there’s lots of information about Bilbo Baggins in Lotr, that doesn’t mean it was written in the third age of Middle Earth homie

The conceit of the LOTR appendices is that Lord of the Rings, as published in English, is really just the Red Book that Bilbo writes at the end. Dr. Tolkien merely found the manuscript somewhere and has graciously translated it from Third Age common language into English for the benefit of us modern people.

Could be if the extras were not originally billed as speaking parts, the threat was too not upgrade them to the pay grade for speaking parts.

I know in SAG-AFTRA productions there’s a limit to how many words you can speak on camera before you have to get a SAG card, that usually comes with an upgrade in pay and benefits.

Those pizzas look a lot better than the typical office pizza party I’ve seen.

Big Smoke, you make big mistake.
