Norm Macdonald: I remember the good old days when tweeting meant ...

I had the Samsung Flip 6 and I liked it a bit in the beginning but quickly tired of having to flip it open and so I'm back to the soap bar- but otherwise this looks cool


good luck getting most people into a pilotless aircraft as well- there is at least an incentive for the pilots to stay alive


Claude literally today just reprimanded me on my personal account and refused a request due to political bias- and so I decided to cancel and subscribe to Grok. SuperGrok performed the task no issue.


What was the request?

Also, Claude refuses political stuff in general, not just your specific beliefs.


very nice though I am old fashioned and would like a hard copy option


that's a wild price point for a mac, impressive


I'm tempted not to use it to control everything, but install it on my mac and give it access to keyboard maestro macros and that's it


Been in Mexico almost 7 years- it's common knowledge, you don't drink the tap water, ever. The destitute who can't afford bottled water might be the exception.


I’ve lived here for 3 years and been drinking the tap for about a year. I’ve got lots of friends with “filters” that don’t actually do anything for microbes, and they drink that water. Anyways, very very few people can’t afford a garrafón.


It's not the microbes in my experience, it's the heavy metals suspended in the water.

It's like a 0.1% damage over time effect. A few days drinking it? Fine. A few weeks? Still fine. Months? I started feeling just a bit more sick until I cut it out for filtered water.


Brita filters most certainly do filter out "microbes". Just with low certainty that drops over the age of the filter.


FWIW I was not referring to brita filters. Two days ago I was at a friends house who had a literal fabric filter on top of his big water carafe.


The majority of the world has non-potable tap water.


Try drinking tap water in Africa, India, Bangladesh, most of South America and South Asia, in fact most of the 3rd world... good luck. Ie India had (maybe still has) high infant mortality due to water-transmitted diseases. Once you can't effectively 100% separate waste water from natural water table or other sources for drinking, everything becomes contaminated.


adjacent perhaps but I am looking forward to this book https://nostarch.com/game-boy-coding-adventure
