Well, I’m glad it wasn’t the main bridge for Galveston island, that would’ve been all kinds of bad

Not to say that Belgium doing so isn’t helping, $10 million is a lot better than nothing. But my first thought is that that maybe pays for like what, two electrical substations? Maybe costs for that sort of thing are lower in Ukraine than in the US, or maybe I’m overestimating capital costs for electrical infrastructure even in the US. In any case, I wonder how much it would cost to fix all of Ukraine’s distribution infrastructure
Edit: Should’ve read the article. I guess the focus is on generators, including distributed stuff like solar
Have you ever actually been outside the US?
Went on my first cruise just recently with my wife and two of my good college friends. We were interested cause we live in a city with a large cruise industry and I was very curious about it. I went into it with low-ish expectations, and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the buffet food (better than my university’s cafeteria, which is what I was expecting) but slightly disappointed overall with the fine dining entrees, though the desserts were good. I only had like 2 alcoholic drinks on the boat the whole week, which I believe is atypical (friend of mine said the drinks package is totally worth it, but I can’t imagine drinking >4 alcoholic servings a day for a week straight, which is probably what you need to do for it to even out). Sea days were cool, I enjoyed the shows generally more than I expected, and the laid back atmosphere was cool. Excursion days were also cool, but not mind blowing. Had the most fun snorkeling (although it took me five minutes to figure out how to not freak out from breathing underwater but only through my mouth, that was weird). Didn’t really feel like going to a foreign country, like it does when you take a trip to Europe. I think the main perk for me was that I didn’t have to cook any of my own food or clean any of my dishes for a whole week. I would go again, like some other people have said I think an Alaskan or Arctic cruise would be cool. We had an interior stateroom and booked it due to a very cheap rate 8-9 months in advance
I look forward to seeing this post every week. It’s encouraging that Mr. Krabs is proud of me
I wonder if it isn’t a symptom of things going from high competition environment between new internet services and older stuff like cable to more established systems of revenue which don’t have as much incentive to compete for workers or market share. So maybe that’s the end result of approaching monopoly.
I went to Colorado Springs a little while ago and had to do a double take when I saw that a gas station was advertising that as its name. Absolutely blew my mind when I realized it is a huge chain there.
Posts like these make you wary of buying a new one. At this point I see this so regularly though that I don’t know if the usage is even wrong given how many people use it
That’s interesting. I haven’t tried its reasoning skills. I did try playing Jeopardy! with it though, and it showed a lot of improvement from previous attempts. Usually chatbots are very bad at Jeopardy, telling you just about any answer is correct, but Claude 2 did really well, explaining why I was wrong several times. I did ask it to provide an explanation about whether my answers were right or wrong in the initial prompt, so that might’ve made a difference though.
Almost as many as there are in the colonial fleet in Battlestar Galactica. So does that mean we can expect that the colonial fleet had someone as prolific at shitposting as The_Picard_Maneuver? That’s encouraging to know if so
