Not from State Farm. Sorry to disappoint. I'm just a half-Iranian American exploring the fediverse. I am interested in science, tech, philosophy, animals, comedy, a wide range of music, and even politics. Though the politics in my country are plain depressing atm.
Do you mean the gods? Obviously they give us everything.
Im pretty sure the cold was why it was so bad.
I have only sneezed that loud a few times and each time has hurt.
I mean I don't mind the aesthetic.
I didn't realize they had so few existing forrests.
What do you mean? It was built to be a temporary structure for the world's fair to advertise the advances in steel manufacturing. There was always going to be a tower, the only question whose design it would be.
I didn't write a book or claim to be an authority on the subject. I stated what I remember on a subject I had read an article about 2 weeks ago.
I didn't know it was outdated at the time. I don't constantly check and double things I read in passing to see if it has been updated. I am not a professional in the field.
What do you mean? Birds do it all the time, it just takes multiple generations to form new compositions.
It would be more appropriate to say outdated. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2024/11/13/20-million-votes-election-harris-trump-fact-check/76136743007/ As of November 6th 16 million less votes than the year before had been counted.
I was thinking it would be 1 adult for every 8-10 kids but others are saying it is legally mandated to be 1 adult to 2-5 kids which means you are paying half a persons salary.
Do public schools even have that ratio of adults to children?
Have they specified the type of farmland being converted?
Structurally it is worse than twitter as it decentralizes the cost of running it but centralizes the profits. Content and moderation wise, sure it's better than twitter...for now. IMO twitter was a shithole long before Musk bought it. He just made it worse.
15 million of them. That is a staggering number.
Though some of the updates have gotten so much attention that a new wave of players flock to the game.
Now Always Closed Open But Minded
The OSI has presented their definition of Open Source AI and a closer reading only shows that "Open Source AI" probably just isn't a thing that can exist.

Some people come up with a bit of writing on AI, what else is new? That’s basically LinkedIn’s whole existence currently. But the OSI has a very special role in the Open Source software ecosystem. Because Open Source isn’t just based on the fact whether you can see code but also about the License that code is covered under: You might get code that you can see but that you are not allowed to touch (think of the recent WinAmp release debate). The OSI basically took on the role of defining which of the different licenses that were being used all over the place actually are “Open Source” and which come with restrictions that undermine the idea. > > > > This is very important: Picking a license is a political act with strong consequences. It can allow or forbid different modes of interaction with an object or might put certain requirements to the use.

I'm looking to get a hold of Water Kefir Grains but $20 plus shipping seems a bit steep
Plus if I'd prefer to buy/share locally. Any advice for finding either a local supplier or someone that wouldn't mind giving me a sample of their starter?
There are an awful lot of dupes

Hyundai’s electrified N Vision 74 is headed for production someday soon - The Verge
The rumors were true?!
I like the design. I wish car designers were more adventurous.
I didn't see any FAQ or questions post
I have clarifying questions on the rules. If this isn't the proper format in which to ask them, then let me know. Are animated music videos allowed? By year, do you mean the year the music video was made or the year the first version of the song was published?
Eric Ugland is such an underrated author
Between the Good Guys, Bad Guys, and now the Grim Guys series, The Universe of Vuldranni is one of the most thoroughly flushed out I have seen in the litrpg space.

China’s ‘rotten-tail buildings’: homebuyers in limbo for years with no home due to dodgy developers and red tape | South China Morning Post
A survey conducted this year found over 45 per cent of homebuyers in mainland China encounter unfinished building problems
Unfinished or ‘rotten-tail buildings’, as they are known in China, usually have no electricity, no running water, lifts that do not work and no sewage system
So I tried to make hot process soap today
I am pretty sure I over cooked it. I kept waiting for the mixture to look glossy but it was only ever partial so I wound up cooking it for 3 hours before deciding to just put it in the mold anyway and the soap doesn't hold together very well. I am leaving it in for a day but when I was pressing it into the mold it just felt like it wasn't forming a cohesive whole.
Can Amanita Muscaria be vaped?
From what I understand, decarboxylation is the key to making Fly Agaric safe and hallucinogenic, and given vaping decarbs cannabis, I figure it might do the same.
Meta Is this sublemmy American conservatism, English Conservatism, European Conservatism?
There is a pretty big difference between them.

If nuclear waste is such a concern, why aren't breeder reactors more common, they aren't a new technology.
