orcs on Max, Mad Max. I think they should also switch from the unsafe oxygen to the government approved breathing mixture of putin's farts and healthy sulfuric acid vapors.

My lungs are damaged. I can get hypoxic around 5000 ft of elevation. Airlines fly around pressurized to around 8000 ft of elevation.
Being able to monitor my o2 both while I sleep as well as during times at high altitude is quite the handy thing to have. Most people would like to know when their o2 hits the low 80s. Luckily, I can somewhat control it with some concentration and breathing exercises. A finger sensor isn't practical and also sticks out like a sore thumb vs. a watch which looks natural and unobtrusive. Plus a watch gives me about a full day of random monitoring to alert me if I have any issues -- most finger monitors die after a few hours.
Nah.
Iâ(TM)m 51. Iâ(TM)ve had health insurance continuously for 35 years and have used it exactly ZERO TIMES.
I am self pay. For everything but true life threatening emergencies, which Iâ(TM)ve had zero.
Even the ER is cheaper when negotiated self pay.
My urologist is stunned that I pay $85 for his visits. Self pay. Including labs. My colleague goes to the same urologist and his insurance pays $550 for the same visit and naturally it comes out of his deductible lol.
Insurance is a scam. All insurance is legal gambling and gamblers never win.
you must be new on life. Easy? What if the plane is replaced after the ticket purchase? Who is supposed to maintain this csv file? There are tons of ticket resellers, are there APIs? Etc. I don't work with airlines, I do provide systems in logistics and transportation management, nothing is ever easy.
we are on a technical site, supposedly. The work required to ensure that every single seat is marked 'window but not really' vs 'window' and then all of the plane schematics are adjusted according to every single airplane is insane and may not even be technically possible. You are buying tickets through a system that doesn't know the exact layout of that particular airplane, it knows the model. The layouts change because airlines replace seats and may change the number of rows and how the rows are aligned exactly against windows and doors, etc.
I am saying this is ridiculous to sue for this, because it's clearly way too complex of an issue, just like most other real life issues, they are not 'black' and 'white', 'democrats' and 'republicans', etc.
This is nonsense, what if it is not a window but a door instead, should you be suing based on a technical name? Window seat is seat adjacent to a wall, aisle seat is a seat adjacent to a corridor. Then there are middle seats. I got 'window seat' many times, where the window is not directly in my row but it is somewhat between rows, so what? It's a name.
Supply and demand dictate this is exactly the case.
If something is valuable to everyone, it should only be accessible to those who have enough saved value to acquire it.
The poor fucked themselves. My parents are poor but worked hard so I wouldn't be.
Being compensated for it means it wonâ(TM)t get wasted and will always have a fair valuation.
Compensation is as cooperative as it comes because nobody can hoard it.
never mind subscription, how about turning a car into a one armed bandit, a slot machine, instead of coins you insert your credit card and 'pull the arm', if you get 3 of the same, it does what you need it next, the breaks work or the steering wheel turns
If ruzzian terrorist putin arrives to Alaska and instead of immediately arresting and throwing him to jail and then offering ruzzia to start actual negotiations Trump meets with him to discuss anything at all, I believe this will mark the end of the USA as a nation altogether. You can then forget about your very concept of laws, don't bother, there is nothing, just emptiness and pointlesness.
I routinely listen (and watch) anything that is not music at 1.5, but I find that in the last year or so I went up to 2.5, sometimes 3, rarely 4. I definitely do not fit the definition of a young American though.
I am smug enough to surround myself with people smarter than me who can also handle themselves. You are clearly do not fall into any of these categories.
I did say this though:
couldn't redraw the board from the list of moves, I pasted all of the moves, it couldn't draw an accurate board, basically fell apart on me after a little while.
I did try to 'remind' the LLM what it was supposed to know anyway, it couldn't work even from the newly provided list.
I understand that humans can no longer beat chess engines, I am not a good player, I dabble. I also understand that LLMs have no real memory or game state, etc. Asked ChatGPT5 to play a game yesterday, I set up a physical board, it drew ascii board and used annotations. For a little while it was OK, maybe the first 15 moves or so. It wasn't beating me, it was balanced at first, however it started behaving as a drunk would. Forgot how pieces move, forgot where some pieces were, forgot that it was white and would tell me that it is white's move instead, couldn't redraw the board from the list of moves, I pasted all of the moves, it couldn't draw an accurate board, basically fell apart on me after a little while. When things get too complex and require either actual thinking or specialized algorithms and databases it failed. It is not intelligence, just a poor simulation.
