I would be interested in the real world costs, what was the value of your daily limit per user and how much would you say is typical? I presume the $30 query was an outlier, otherwise it would be more efficient to hire twice as many people than use AI unless they only run a single query a day.

Is it chicken farmers we need though? Growing chicken takes more food than it produces.

If someone said that to me I would probably assume it’s sarcasm

Also what counts as a civilian killed by NATO as opposed to a civilian killed in a war NATO was involved in but who killed them is unclear or it wasn’t NATO?

But we do know that the USA has opened fire on civilians before with them as the target and there were no hostile forces around.

No one has told me I would regret that but so far living like that is great.

We went for a house somewhat below the maximum we could borrow, hardly cheap because nothing is cheap. But I am happy with it and don’t see any reason to move. I just want to pay off the mortgage and hopefully retire early. Why the fuck would I want to work years longer just to have a house that costs more?

Wish I could say the same, so far Linux knowledge seems to have done very little for me as far as employment goes. I have used it at work before but normally it isn’t something anyone else seems to care about. At least my limited knowledge of Windows hasn’t been too significant of a problem so far either.

Alex Jones had credibility to lose?

Depends how hard you scrape. Steel sponges with a lot of force will take you down to metal, chainmail might work nicely for cleaning stuck on food without damaging the coating too much but I haven’t used it.

Metal tools you need to really scrape at it to remove the coating, I don’t think it is something you could do by mistake.

I thought it was just teflon that is too weak to handle metal tools.

Ahh, the impression I got is that one makes it sound like they are avoiding it because they can’t be bothered to while the other actively avoids it because its bad.

Is that the same thing? The impression I get is that OPs post is about the IT worker actively distrusting smart tech. While I assume your example is more that the blacksmith doesn’t bother with making metal spoons for himself and using what ever he had already, which would be more comparable to a network engineer still using the ISPs shitty router.

Lol they can get fucked for screwing over customers

When there is a water outage here it is normally localised to a small area and makes national news because of how infrequent it is. The water company must provide bottled water when this happens too.

Clearly I live somewhere with better water regulations, never even heard of a boil water notice

Somewhat tempted to go with corded and a generator. Large battery could work but they cost a lot more if you want high watt output and realistically it’s not going to be used super frequently outside of cable reach.I

The money saved by not buying a battery with every tool would be huge too. Some won’t even let you buy without a battery…

Yeah, works pretty well in a slow cooker. Plus without a fridge it’s the only real way to store meat which is nice when the corner shop is selling a pack of sausages for £0.19 at 23:45

Why would I care about trace minerals in drinking water though? Just want the chlorine taste removed and activated carbon filters seems to do that just fine.

I used a slow cooker when renting a bedroom. Leave it it on all the time and just top it up with ingredients after having a portion.

Aren’t those ultra processed potato nugget things? Why not mashed potato
