  • FIFA hikes 2026 World Cup parking prices

    Jump

  • I wonder at what point it's worthwhile to have a group to park at some mall and rent a van to drive to the stadium parking.

    If any positive outcome is possible here, I'd be nice if this gets people accustomed to carpooling to such events. Sure would be nice though if these stadiums would be serviced by more effective transportation.

  • New York considers bill that would ban chatbots from giving legal, medical advice

    Jump

  • 'Should I use one teaspoon of salt in this recipe, or two?'

    Two is ideal.

    'Do dogs like chicken wings?'

    Wild dogs regularly hunt small animals like hare or chicken for food.

    One of these answers results in a bad cake, the other results in a hurt dog. Potentially inaccurate answers aren't much of a problem when the stakes are low, but even a simple question about what to feed a pet could end with a negative outcome.

  • New York considers bill that would ban chatbots from giving legal, medical advice

  • I could see the argument for things that aren't particularly important, but to continue with the legal example, it seems akin to asking a practicing lawyer a question and asking someone that watched Boston Legal when it aired and can quote James Spader.

    Unfortunately, with the potential for a hallucinatory response, anything beyond quite simplistic queries shouldn't be relied on with more weight than a crutch of toothpicks.

  • What do your teeth taste like?

  • America's favourite chocolate, according to this post I just happened across.

  • What is a belief you’ve done a total 180 on?

    Jump

  • There's been an obviously simple misunderstanding here, and only one side of this exchange has doubled down on blowing things out of proportion.

    You've just directly insulted someone based on how they choose to consume ice cream.

    Jump

  • I love when a silly comment about ice cream sparks a semantic disagreement then concludes with faux politeness. Ah isn't the internet glorious.

    Cheers for the laugh, Mr Noodle.

  • Utah Bill To Limit Traffic Calming in Salt Lake City Advances

    Jump

  • "I would prefer that the Legislature would leave Salt Lake City's control of Salt Lake City streets up to Salt Lake City," said Utah Rail Passengers Association executive director Mike Christensen.

    What a sentiment to legislate against. Imagine if children asked at the dinner table to be in charge of tidying their own rooms only to be denied by the parents.

    As if the state doesn't have enough to do. Micromanaging looneys they must be.

  • Sony is testing dynamic pricing: one game - different prices on the PlayStation Store

    Jump

  • What was it that initially sent you down that path?

  • What is a belief you’ve done a total 180 on?

    Jump

  • That's how you interpreted my comment? Perhaps it was my use of 'you' whereas I may have written 'a person'? It was meant more as a royal you than a specific you.

    I didn't suggest anyone 'buy more equipment'. I answered that I would use a funny bowl.

  • What is a belief you’ve done a total 180 on?

    Jump

  • Right, well I wasn't trying to convince you to switch only answering the question. Enjoy what you have as it please you.

  • I read that cocoa powder is good for colouring bread, so I made an unSwiss roll

    Jump

  • A bakery I frequent sells lovely swirly looking bread they call cinnamon french loaf. I've thought before it'd be nice to have a more conventional flavour bread for sandwiches and whatnot that keeps a similar look of whimsy to it.

    I might show them this next I go. Looks fantastic!

    Jump

  • New concept for me. I've just left it out on the counter before for someone that prefers it softened.

    Do you find the softening consistent all throughout? Might give this a go next time a softer serve is needed.

  • What is a belief you’ve done a total 180 on?

  • Can't say it's a problem I encounter, but I might opt for one of them double wall bowls that you can freeze to prevent the melting altogether.

  • Forks with ice cream. Seemed stupid, tried it out, converted.

  • 35-year-old brings in around $60,000 a year and lives rent-free by pet sitting full time—everything they own fits in 2 suitcases

    Jump

  • NYC Mayor Mamdani proposes $25 million to build a network of 500 bike lockers

    Jump

  • It's good to see this decade long slog coming to fruition, but it is still a dog house for a bike, not exactly inspiring infrastructure. Painting them anything but slate grey would probably help with visual appeal, so here's hoping for that.

    Thinking of the top of the mountain, the Netherlands builds underground bike storage roughly the same as these bike sheds, on a per bike basis. Of course that type of permanent infrastructure is time consuming to construct, but this sudo permanent shed rollout is spread across the next five years, so not exactly quick.

    Driver Kills Two-Year Old Child in San Francisco

    Jump

  • Glad to see the local authority upped the game by repainting a crosswalk the following day. That'll stop the next SUV.

    Not that they need to be stopped apparently:

    But, of course, the police have already exonerated the driver

  • I would be happier if Tim Tams were included with this agreement.
