The one place where Sam’s beats Costco is its scan and go app. You literally scan the barcodes of the items you want to purchase as you shop, check out in the app and walk out the door. Never have to speak to anyone or wait in the checkout line.

There’s quite a number of ARM laptops, even ignoring Apple.

We’re being extra pedantic now? Good, I like it.

So is POWER. Or basically anything not x86 lol.

This is the real issue. Gas cars burn quick and it’s done. EVs can burn for days.

Not wrong calling the rabid fan base that though…

Give Oracles always free tier a try. I shuffle over a TB through them every month with no issues.

Have you tried Pandora? I always thought Pandora was better at recommending music than GPM was, but it was close.

I recall reading it somewhere when the news was first coming out that it was useless as an oral medicine- lemme see if I can find it again.

Edit: I musta misread whatever news article it was - I just skimmed the actual release from the FDA and don’t really mention the nose spray route at all. https://www.fda.gov/media/171972/download

Shit man, I’d be happy with a 7k jackpot tbh. 70k would be hella worth it.

Every time I am reminded of this, I have to do a deep dive into it again. Its so weird how we know basically nothing about it.

~~But they also found that phenylephrine works amazingly well when used as a nasal spray, which they didn’t quite know before. ~~

Turns out you’re actually a woman.

Yea, we’re good at that.

Don’t get me started on fucking paper straws…

Sorry, I wasn’t clear. In the olden times, a bagger (or the cashier) nicely packed the stuff into bags making sure not to break shit. All the stores around me now just yeet shit back into the cart after scanning it with no regard to what it lands on or if it breaks.

Switching from single use plastic to multi-use plastic has greatly increased carbon emissions of production. You also have to reuse the new plastic bags over 100 times for them to break even, emissions wise. (https://news.climate.columbia.edu/2020/04/30/plastic-paper-cotton-bags/)

I agree with you that canvas bags are better overall, but IMO we should move back to paper. It’s WAY easier to reuse paper products, gardeners love the paper bags, and they break down quickly even if they are littered somewhere. There are some tradeoffs, such as transportation costs being higher because they are thicker than single use bags, but if you compare paper to multi-use bags, it’s a fairly moot point.

Also, I’d still rather someone bag my shit for me. I’ve had so many things broken or otherwise damaged by the cashier haphazardly tossing my stuff into the cart just so I can walk 5 foot and take 10 minutes to pack my own stuff. Personal preference, but it should be given as an option imo.

Windows has had this for literally decades, too. You have to use a 3rd party software, but it exists and is easy to use.

The US likes to use anything but actual units of measurement…

Heh, yea, I get that. I call it the mother in law test. My wife and I are fairly techy, but my MIL refuses to pay a cable bill and isn’t satisfied with the shows available on the antenna. I’ve got an entire Emby setup for her to use, and have mostly trained her how to use Overseerr to request shows/movies for her to watch, too. It was a bit of a pain getting here, but it works well now.
