I’ve tried a couple of them and while they didn’t taste bad to me, they definitely weren’t coffee and I didn’t have any urge to seek them out again. I was amused by James Hoffman trying a bunch of them though!
I do like chicory though, as a big fan of bitter.
A lot of reforestation started across Europe in the 60s (this is not EU but still fits the pattern) 
I did once, it was otherworldly!
This will not stop until the ultra-rich are destroyed as a class. They have constructed a parallel economy, and we are all their serfs. History shows this situation can’t last and the question is whether they can be parted with their wealth peacefully or not
Because potato chips are generally water-free from the bag and rich in oil, they make for a decent firestarter!
It’s just a bad fuel in every way. This administration is trying to coerce us to use it

Yes, McConnell was a big factor, but Democrats went along with him, and that was probably NIMBY-related https://www.npr.org/2009/05/20/104334339/democrats-block-funding-to-close-guantanamo
WELNA: Like Majority Leader Reid, Indiana Democrat Evan Bayh is up for reelection next year. He, too, opposes sending Guantanamo detainees to the U.S.
EVAN BAYH: We have a supermax facility in Terre Haute, Indiana. I don’t think the citizens of my state would look too kindly on having those folks housed in our state.
It would be nice if they change the Office app back to its old name, rather than M365 Copilot or whatever insane nonsense they picked. They should also review their corporate culture, and how the way they set performance rewards leads to insane unintended consequences across the company.
Radium Girls and Radium Jaw are linked in ‘See Also’, because when the first cases of radium-related necrosis were appearing in women working with radium watch dials, doctors spent years searching for a source of phosphorus at the factories. The symptoms were very similar and the mechanism of toxicity of radium was not yet understood.
I took the same thing from this article as you. This is part of why Guantanamo Bay never closed; there was no place where the detainees’ presence was tolerated. People don’t want the object of their fear in their backyard. They want it as far away as possible. This is also why the six extermination camps like Auschwitz were not on German soil. Not in Germans’ backyard.
It has had trouble with some subtitles. That’s the biggest issue I’ve had
It is a little convoluted how it’s set up, but I have a debt of gratitude to the Calibre community for their various add-ons freeing my legally purchased books of their DRM! Which is what enabled me to have centralized library in the first place, since they were all on different services. But now I’ve quit Amazon and have everything accessible from KOreader on my Kobo, via Calibre-web

It’s handy to share media with my family! The Roku app works OK
I ate a lot of good food when I visited the UK. Honestly anyone who claims <place> has only bad food has a skill issue.
I think LLMs are fine for specific uses. A useful technology for brainstorming, debugging code, generic code examples, etc. People are just weary of oligarchs mandating how we use technology. We want to be customers but they want to instead shape how we work, as if we are livestock
It’s because they have taken too much of the economy for themselves. Too much wealth in the hands of too few. The wisdom of crowds dissipates and they move as much more of a herd, and more erratically. Things begin to swing from one shiny object to another more quickly, with nothing to keep their greed in check
Servo is new web engine that Mozilla was building with Rust. Both Servo and Rust were initially developed by brilliant Mozilla engineers, cast aside by their incompetent, corrupt leadership and only thrived when they were unyoked from Mozilla, where good ideas go to die
I started with Raspberry Pi and Arduino for a scientific project that later became a published paper. https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0278752
Now I have a couple Pis and ESP32s around the house doing all sorts of jobs, and am managing Docker-hosted shiny dashboards at work
