Naw, basically all major players changed their recipies over the last couple years. They are double the price, but have less chocolate, and more palm oil and other BS.
Stick with artisan chocolate, or, if you can, figure out which name brand chocolates haven't changed their schtick yet. I think snickers are still the same, but don't hold it against me if they aren't.
Well, I originally saw both Blair Witch and H20 played from really dark and messy VHS copies of theater recordings.... And man, let me tell ya, they were both way better as low quality cams that HD movies!
I intentionally watch bad Horror as cams now, when I can, even decades later... It really adds to the experience!
SOs HP laptop borked Win11pro OS, wouldn't load or recover. Tried reinstalling clean but Win11 installer can't see SSD. Driver loading during install results in install crashing error.
Linux, here we come.
Why do they last more than a year?
Why do they exist at all?
Yeah, was pretty sure it was something like that...
I used AI to make a Home Alone themed digital Christmas card last year. It was completely PG. But it was a nightmare to do as I kept tripping over gates on account of Kevin being a child and Home Alone being a copyrighted property.
I went all the way to the dark end of the AI gen spectrum, to where kiddie porn abdolutely happens, but the product I produced there was unsatisfactory. So I went alI went back to the top players with all the gates and worked around them by reworking my prompts for what seemed like forever.
1 year earlier I would've gotten the results I wanted with my first prompt, maybe tweaking fonts for the words, fixing spelling errors, or making minor visual features. 5min tops.
It really turned me off from continuing to play with AI.
Those gates have gotten really nasty.
It's as though users are treated as guilty in advance and then denied the opportunity to prove themselves innocent.
Completely backwards attitude and practice.
Oh, Costco is in the stone ages still in a lot of ways, it's pretty unsettling sometimes. But also using tried and true methods and waiting decades to adopt modern tech saves a ton of cash... Which doesn't just benefit the stock holders when you're a company like Costco.
Go in in person on a weekday before 3pm and sign up at the service desk.
I have upgraded to USB-C headphones...
But, years ago I got a handful of USB-C to 3.5mm adapters as manufacturers were starting to discontinue the 3.5mm jacks by default.
I was of course used to needing a USB adapter for headphones because I had a RAZR v3 for many years, which I also used as an mp3 player. I believe it only had a micro USB port.
AI@home baby!
I called it many years ago.
Wish I found somebody dumb enough to bet money against it. I'd be, like, dollars richer maybe.
Wasn't 7 just an visually updated NT.
Wish granted (wiggles nose)
Funny, the statute $2500 should be for the circumvention act, which was likely singular, not per file obtained during or as a result of the act. And the $150k is ridiculous in and of itself, even if for all files obtained. What a strange world we live in.
Spotify built a system of control in order to profit a few at a cost to many, perhaps everyone else.
Someone broke that system in order to benefit many, possibly at the cost of some of their ability to profit from their system of control--if they didn't lose customers, or prospective customers, they didn't experience any financial loss, or a loss in their ability to maintain their system of control (which is still very much in place and working).
Either way, nobody was hurt.
But the person who acted selflessly to benefit of society in general is punished.
Because... We, as a society, celebrate and work effortlessly to maintain complex systems of abuse in order to satisfy our greed or the greed of others. All despite being taught in school not to lie to and bully each other, and to share with and care for each other.
As a species: We are bat shit fucking crazy!
