I got the emoji list up all the time on Teams when I didn’t want it. Apparently I use brackets a lot.

This is much better IMO.

Although they could have told us. That would have been nice.

I can feel sick due to engine braking and it doesn’t matter whether it’s a manual or an automatic as it happens with both. I leave my auto on the comfort setting and it can still cause sickness. The sport mode is worse and the eco mode wouldn’t cause sickness as it doesn’t have engine braking (I assume that it does the equivalent of dipping the clutch when you let off the accelerator)

As I understand it any unanticipated movement can cause motion sickness. I can’t read in a car otherwise I get sick really quickly. I can get sick in the front passenger seat even if I don’t read.

It’s just travel sickness so I don’t know why it doesn’t make sense. Changes in speed or direction can make you feel sick

I get it as a passenger in petrol cars. I start to feel sick if the driver cuts off on the power and then goes back to accelerating too suddenly.

That sounds like it would be worse in an EV with this feature turned on.

The first line of the article says that it accessed non-public data.

It was actually a post made by ChatGPT.

In no particular order:

Titanfall 2 single player / Titanfall 1 multiplayer Cyberpunk Batman: Arkham Knight Ghost of Tsushima Wipeout 2097

I thought that Descent was way better than Doom. We used to play it after work and it was fantastic.

I’ve never been a first person shooter fan though.

The rule that I was taught as a kid was “I before E except after C only if the sound is ee”

It catches all of the examples on the mug except “weird” which gets a pass in my book because it’s weird (Keith’s excluded because proper nouns don’t follow rules). It doesn’t catch “caffeine” but the “ei” in “caffeinated” isn’t pronounced ee where I come from.

I’ve never heard the “ay” rule but it doesn’t seem to catch as many words as the “not ee” rule.

Technically I did miss it but I kinda assumed that he would incite genocide.

You can work much faster with AIs than is shown on wall clock time.

Just make sure that you’re working with 9 LLMs at once and you can get that 9 years experience in just one year.

Yeah. All the companies seem to think that ads for their own products don’t count as ads. Same with all these ad free mobile games…. 99% of them show ads for in game purchases.

I think that the bullshit mental gymnastics that they all went through to allow them to do that was to call them promotions, not ads.

Do you think it’s possible that some women actually choose to wear the Hijab?

Exactly. People should not be forced to wear religious clothing but people should not be forced to not wear religious clothing either.

I was thinking that it was going to be a mobile game until the Xbox logo at the end of the

It looks good.

I want to do something similar with an Android tablet so that I can replace the Amazon ad delivery system in my kitchen. All I use it for now is timers and a shopping list.

I never get the time to do it though.

It’s better to have the law than not as the threat of prosecution can change behaviour.

However, I do think that it is very easy to avoid telling a lie while still misleading people. It’s a thing that politicians do so much it’d be a required skill listed in the job ad if one was posted.

The infamous Brexit bus only implied that we would be able to increase NHS funding by £350 million per week if we left the EU.

Even if you do say something that’s untrue it’d have to be proven that you knew it to be untrue at the time that you made the statement.

I think that you’d basically need to admit to lying or say something so ridiculous that it couldn’t possibly be true to get caught.

We’d need several versions of this in the UK with a decision tree required to select the relevant decision tree. It would need to take age and where you were brought up into account.

I think that the most complicated is distance. For me it is imperial for a person’s height, metric for short distances that I measure, imperial for short distances that I estimate (that one’s weird), miles for ground travel distances and time for air travel distances.

That’s more than mildly infuriating!

On the PS app in the UK it is “Add to cart” and then “Order & Pay”. As you say, they never use the word “buy”.

Private companies can issue tickets in the UK. It works for the most part in my part of the country.

There was a time where wheel clampers used to clamp vehicles using tactics such as bad signage and hiding until you’d left your car. We seem to have got them under control now.

If Europe made a similar statement about bolstering left wing media in the US he’d go nuts accusing them of election interference.
