I use the dictation and text to speech when I’m in my car, which does occasionally introduce typos, but I’ve still got some voice notes from friends I haven’t listened to from a few months ago because they’re a couple minutes long and I just don’t have time for that

He took too many bites

If only for your own sake. My son sells clothes online and has had people try to claim refunds because they had assumed it was a different size, even though he had listed the size and included a photo of the size label.

It was the two or three steps he took afterward that sold it

You can selectively delete single videos or songs, and turn on or off history without deleting it all. When I’m using my account as background music at an event I pause history so I don’t get my music recommendations set to whatever we’re listening to. Also useful with kids music.

This is the exact reason I volunteer to do things I haven’t done before. I love to learn how to do new things, especially when I can learn them from people who have tricks they’ve built up over the years that a traditional class won’t teach. I’m not going to let AI steal that joy from me.

To use the drone I’ve got for work, I had to take a test from the FAA and am officially a Certified Remote Pilot. The test included stuff like airport layouts, weather service reports, and airspace control.

The drone basically flies itself, though.

Same, though there was one who had multiple stickers on the back of his car that identified his political leaning. Still didn’t talk to the guy, but had an extra reason that time.

Mine was published. A majority of the people celebrated it, and a few people told me to get help.

My last company had a style guide, which I loved, because it agreed with every one of the things I cared about. Any time I was editing a document and came across an Oxford comma situation, I could just point them at the company style guide.

You know this guy is good, of course you do, but I'll tell you exactly how good I think he is: I can be bothered to zoom to read his cartoons, every time, and he never disappoints.

Yes, I’ll pay more in tax for education. I’ll even chip in a bit extra for you to take a few English lessons if you’re open to it.

Amazed at how fast you posted this

I wouldn’t be surprised to find out they’re working on it. In fact, the first CEO to personally demo this on stage at a keynote somewhere will get my eternal respect

Let me clarify my statement: I meant that she is assuming a sufficient amount of empathy to change one’s own behavior as to help one’s partner by avoiding a perceived source of discomfort.

Your vegetarian partner adoringly watching you eat meat is laudable, but isn’t universal

Oof. I had to look that one up to get the reference, but even with his situation I’ll guarantee he ended up better off than if he would have been with just glasses.

You’re assuming empathy

I totally get it, there are a lot of times I get really excited for something until someone uses it for the inevitable bad use and ruins it for everyone. Why can’t people just be normal?

I was six foot since I was around twelve and then stopped growing, but when my kids got close to my height we re-measured and I had hit 6’1”. Six foot is easier, though, so if anyone asks, I’m still six foot.

Couldn’t the camera be attached to the helmet, though? I only ever used it once, but I had a helmet mount GoPro for a video I shot for a trail.

I’d bet more on logging a lot of hours with a low K/D ratio and a lot of yelling about how his team is letting him down

Not sure if you were fishing for cat pictures, but these happened to be on my phone from a while ago when one of my cats had a job interview and the other was moonlighting as an international spy.

Whoever invented the fist bump really did me a solid, because anyone going in for a hand shake will usually see a fist coming towards them and switch to the fist bump. If they don’t, I hold it there for a second and say, “I’ll give you one of these”, which has never failed.

I had two kids go through ten years each and at the end, other parents still hadn’t learned the rules of the game. Yelling at the ref with full confidence, but hadn’t bothered to learn the sport.

Even worse were the ones who clearly thought their own kids were bad and wanted to let them know it.

How large would an artificial waterway have to get before it would qualify a body of water as a sea? Eventually naturally processes would start to help things along, I’d imagine, widening things that we started and turning it into a natural waterway.
