It’s all negative data

Even regular neutral water shifts to slightly acidic (5.6) as long as it has contact to air (CO2 dissolving). Would be interesting to know how long those store bought alkaline water becomes base or acidic.

From what I skimmed their manual no internet connection mentioned. So it won’t transmit your usage or tap your conversion, which is a plus.

Zojirushi’s core product is rice cooker/pressure cooker, this seems another variant with mixing(kneading) motor. Attatchable mixing blade and presets of holding temperature & bake temperature combo for cookies, different doughs (lean, butter rich one, pizza) etc. From what I read those presets are not tweakable so it’ll produce ok bread unless you want to customize for your own taste or start experimenting stuff.

Japanese hakama can mask a lot of lower body posture and subtle shifts in weight. Wouldn’t sursprize if their legs actually look like the right.

In the beginning, autumn and spring duration were 13 weeks. Then six, then three weeks. The last autumn lasted for a week. In next year they will be four days, we could be seeing a summer and winter transition in eight hours, until they switch in four minutes.

Technology is (at least for now) not exclusive to the rich. There can be billionaires’ secret labs and underground diy labs. Since few science fictions pop up in the topic and CRISPER is mentioned, I am going to leave CRISPER cookbook and Chapter 2 which was written in response to Roe vs Wade.

No worries, the goal is to stop global warming and billionaires will soon throw money to something shiny like spraying diamonds and sulfur in the air.

Capitalism asks whether you are the kind of person harvesting people’s health info without concent or selling aluminum mesh underwear with fearmongering campaign. No other choices.

Instead of real black wax seal colored hot glue works. Getting the sealing stamp of right ominous figure remains tricky part though, I still want to send out letters that way

I legit thought it’s horror short or SCP entry. Like the barber turns every client into this.

I’m a simple man, I see Peter Watts reference I upvote.

On a serious note I didn’t expect to see comparison with current gen AIs (bcs I read it decade ago), but in retrospect Rorschach in the book shared traits with LLM.

People have been sketching at cafe or any public spaces so drawing digital on tablet out there should be no difference, but it feels very awkward for me. People do that are absolute mad lad.

The reflection of physicsl paper’s white area incoming into camera eye, it’s a self-fullfilling prophecy.

But singapore site links USDA q&a on how to reuse it safely and has section for “what you need to do if you reuse oil”. They don’t particularly advice or encourage single use.

Oil quality is dependent on storage method (strain it with filter, keep airtight non-transparent container etc) and cooking temperature so people need to be informed, but I don’t see reusing it once or twice with appropriate care cause significant harm.

Not the OP but I’ll put my PoV.

AI allows to cut junior and entry level artists. Companies only need to retain top 1% talent orchestrating hordes of AI.

While it is still a craft, commercial art is not about being genuine; it is to deliver product and meeting deadline while passing QA. AI’s output rate outpaces human labor, and the top 1% can certainly identify what aspect makes AI output slop. Which means they can cherry pick “OK” part of AI, review, iterate, tweak to deliver product while keeping quality. The process previously involved comunication between senior and junior artits. Now companies don’t need the rest of the 99% anymore as workforce.

What will happen in the long run? Who knows. Companies are known for only keen on immediate profit.

This tendency is widespread and not limited to art field, nor related to the argument of intrinsic value of art. I can argue this is more of labor (and capitalism) issue, on top of people whose art stolen not getting enough compensation for their work. While I’m not against AI technology itself, its effect on peoples livelihood and climate impact makes current AI landscape hard to defend.

FYI, that was reported in Jp news flash and the source is internal govt, it maybe not credible enough to publish globaly
