Project Phoenix volunteers are asked to record all the birds they see or hear during a 10-minute survey each week at the same location. Knowing which birds are around when, and in what numbers, will indicate where they are and aren’t when it’s smoky. As the project progresses, researchers will use that basic information to learn more about different species’ behavioral responses. Last year, Project Phoenix volunteers captured 170 hours worth of data at more than 320 different sites throughout California.
A Chinese woman who was swept out to sea while swimming at a Japanese beach was rescued 37 hours later after drifting in an inflatable swim ring more than 80 kilometers (50 miles) in the Pacific Ocean, officials said Thursday.
I've started buying DVDs and Blu-ray again after years of not doing so because there have been multiple instances of me purchasing a movie on some streaming platform and then it no longer being available. Also, there have been even more instances where it's less expensive to buy the physical product and then rip it than it is to buy the digital copy.
I do find it rather odd how we Millennials and Gen X had little trouble understanding sarcasm on the internet, overall, but over the last couple of years there's suddenly this huge push that we need to use '/s' to make it extra super obvious. Does Gen Z not use sarcasm?
He took a fucking helicopter trip to Putin's palace. Literally. How is there anybody who can't see the writing on the wall? This man is beyond compromised.
I also prefer the old style heat/AC bar over the modern style where you set a temperature number. What's the point of setting a temperature number when the car doesn't actually maintain or output that particular temperature? For example, if it's 70° out and I set my temperature control to 70°, it might blast cold air at me or hot air. It's a crapshoot. The old style bar, you just set how warm or cool the air was that's coming out of the vents and it didn't change based on external temperature. So much simpler.
But yeah, non-physical buttons are both inconvenient and hazardous.
That's something about you, not your job. You'd need to specify why you don't in order for the comment to be about the job.
