Can you give some examples and how they compare to other generations?

I think people are vastly underestimating how well you can do your job if you dump everything into AI. Yes, everybody else will know, and you'll still do dumb shit, but in certain roles, you will be probably be doing a better job overall. That's some uncomfortable truth redditors especially don't want to admit.

CEOs and C-suites love AI. They use it without shame and it's so obvious in their "pep talk" emails or other communication with the company. They probably think it's helping them do their job better, so why disqualify it?

That kitchen island is sick bro. But you better get used to pissing in the sink.

If those wires are getting anywhere near hot enough to melt hot glue, the breaker would've tripped long ago. Though can't be too sure there's not a fuse filled with pennies in this setup...

The problem is stupid things that work tend to work until they don't. That's when the thing becomes stupid.

Christmas tree lights after you've just spent 2 hours stringing them up backwards.

Tell me about it. Those lazy people using Google when there's a perfectly good volume of Encyclopedia Britainnica at the library.

Also, in the event some troglodyte comes to a stop inches behind you, it gives you a little breathing room to creep forward, so if they get rear-ended you also don't get rear-ended.

That's not the point. The point is getting to the point, something AI does very well to save me a lot of time. If I'm not satisfied with the CliffsNotes, then I can choose to delve deeper.

ChatGPT, teach me how to replace my garage door springs.

The problem is the 3-4 spam calls I get daily (at the same time each day) are silent calls. So there's nobody to even try and scam me when I answer and the call screening immediately catches them, but they still show up in my notifications and badges, still wasting my time.

Spam calls are truly a horrible, awful thing, but once I learned about silent calls is when I pretty much lost all hope in the telecom industry. The idea that there are not enough scammers to call everybody so they just spray spam calls even if they don't have anybody available to do the scamming is one of those things that completely ruins the experience of having a phone.

It's also clinical and business-oriented. Those bullets show a professional awareness of modern trends and ideas on how to capitalize on them. It's the exact thing a business should be doing. Amazing that people are mocking the behind-the-scenes brainstorming of effective marketing ploys that we fall for all the time.

If it says trichloroethylene on the back, it's the good shit.

What else could you possibly need on the dash?

I thought he was gonna turn it around after that one but nope

forcing it through a nozzle

Just don't go too small with the nozzle. I tried 3D printing some custom tips to achieve more of a jet-like flow for better keyboard cleaning, but quickly found that anything smaller than the stock nozzles that come with the blower actually result in worse airflow. Fans move a lot of air, but don't generate much pressure, so if your nozzle gets too small, you end up basically stalling the fan.

Curious if you have more to share about those Aerospike tips. Is the goal just to smooth out flow and project the air further? Or does it increase speed/pressure?

I went through a similar journey with a wolfbox blower and tried printing tips to get a higher pressure jet (like compressed air), but failed miserably. What I found is that since these blowers are just fans, they don't have high enough pressure to force enough air through a tiny tip. The fan just ends up stalling basically. I found that any sort of tip smaller than what came with the fan results in worse airflow. I also did some math on the cross-sectional area of the different tips and they were all the same, so whatever ships is optimal and can't be improved.

I tried some fun experiments with honeycomb and vanes for air straighteners and it did help project the flow a bit further, but not by much. Also tried super long nozzle tips which helped distance, but at the expense of having a gigantic tip attached to the thing. My setup was a kitchen scale to measure thrust at certain distances lol.

There's one town in my state that runs their own electric utility and the rate is about half of what I pay. They even have billboards and signs advertising this sweet-ass rate when you cross town lines.

But the sad violin was okay?

Trump: posts a picture of himself dressed like a king.

Conservatives: "doesn't look like anything to me."

Imagine pissing at the airport after a long-ass flight and looking over to see someone fumbling with their junk after hearing what sounds like several coins being thrown into the urinal.

Once the plastic cools into a long stringy shape (which is almost instantly, hasn't anybody ever used a hot glue gun?), it will stay in that long stringy shape until remelted. No amount of "conditioning" it with a brush will change the shape of the strings, except to shorten them when they break.

I want to collect social security but I don't want to pay into it.

I don't have all the answers, that's why I'm on this sub complaining. Did you forget how this conversation started?

God forbid somebody start a discussion
