As a big fan of Teardown; seeing what happened after Saber bought Tuxedo Labs, I'm not holding my breath for this one.

The tap water here is pretty nasty, we do have a water filtering pitcher though and it does a bang up job so still no need for bottled water.

Yes they can!

There are many different ways it's done but one I find the coolest is a signaling light hooked into the siren of an emergency vehicle. Traffic lights can look for this signal from vehicles and, upon seeing it, heavily prioritize letting the lane it's in have a green.

With Internet searching disabled, the start menu is decent enough as a quick launcher and so I find myself hitting the Windows key quite often for that purpose.

On Linux there are better launchers that I'm too lazy to set up so still just hit Super and use the Application Launcher to find and run programs.

He really looks like a different person like this. In both the post and this comment if I hadn't known it was Mr. Beast I wouldn't have been able to guess it.

In theory I like micro factory design for how neat and tidy it can be. I'm a really disorganized person though and in practice I make a monolithic mess lol

YES! I felt the sore lack of them in 4.3 while working on a project so this is great news!

Pizza Hut has a program called "BOOK IT!" which many classrooms across the country enrolled in. Teachers (or Parents over the summer or in cases of homeschool) can set a reading goal for the student and, when they reach it, can award them a coupon for a free personal pan pizza

I tried for about a week: reading documentation, viewing and modifying example programs, using a Rust IDE with warnings for all my silly mistakes, the works. I couldn't manage to wrap my head around it. It's so different from what I'm used to. If I could dedicate like a month to learn it I would, but I don't have the time :/

That is confusing! Thanks for the clarification and link. I guess I've seen kJ more than I thought, just not by a name that makes any sense lol. Never knew I'd learn so much by posting this lol

I was entirely unaware how common and mundane this is basically everywhere outside the United States. This is the first food item I've seen ever list kJ here, which is why I found it interesting, but I guess it's quite standard elsewhere!

 

Recently got some burritos from a food bank and while looking for cooking directions I found this nutrition chart. Never seen a food product use anything other than calories for energy, thought it was interesting.
