I think it might have to do with their Rigorous Coupled-Wave Analysis selves.

I saw someone comment on a short of a seal being rescued from plastic by Ocean Conservation Namibia that it was AI and that shit pissed me off so much. I've been following them for several years and they've done so much good work.

So many dumbasses now just saying anything and everything is AI without doing a modicum of research.

Yeah the last time I bought a phone was around 2021-22 with the S22, and that was the last time I could actually afford to buy a phone like that. If I were to buy a phone now it would be a cheap phone, not a main model from a big brand. My S22 still works, so I'm gonna keep using it.

The battery is starting to show its age, but nothing I can't work around.

I've recently started using Discord more to play with friends and my god, the UI is so awful.

Oh yeah. It's weird being old enough to remember a time before youtube and I'm still pretty young. My (much) older sister and I would AIM chat and email all the time. We had ytmnd.com and stupidvideos.com, but it turned out people would rather take the ease of video sharing whatever rather than the pseudo video dating youtube were trying and the founders recognized the greater potential.

I remember when the site first went public, even early on it was so much better than the others. Even with all the problems I'll always love YT.

That's fair though the drones they're primarily concerned about look more like small planes rather than recreational drones. I'm assuming if any Poles have drones to fly, they're likely well off enough to head a bit west to avoid them being shot down. And with modern nav/attack chains I'm pretty confident they'll discern between the two.

There's a two lane road near my home that clearly states the bike lane is for bikes only, under any non-emergency circumstances. I've seen bikers almost killed as well as almost getting rear ended or side swiped by people flying down the bike lane to make the right that I make at the intersection from the middle of the road, as prescribed. I understand the complaints but you'll never catch me on a road of any sort in America with a bike. It's just not worth the risk. So everyone is (except the crazy bikers that use the lane) on the sidewalk. It's just a symptom of poor design. And unfortunately everyone will include those assholes almost hitting people on the sidewalk.

I'm guessing this is about perceived performance issues, potential or realized. But I'm not sure at all. I've never dealt with something like this. Only a few places I've worked have even had a proper HR department.

I love this book! I was hoping they'd try to adapt it into a movie! I hope it'll be good. Very exciting!

Such a perfect example. I had the opposite of fun watching that the first time but it's still one of my favorite movies.

This is for one, something that at least I have realized to be the end result of this conflict from the beginning.

Based off the response the past 3 and almost 1/2 years I have completely zero faith that NATO would come to the aid of the Baltic states. And they understand that. That's why they've been pulling out of accords in order to prepare defenses. They know better than almost anyone the threat Russia poses.

This has always been Putin's plan. And now that they're in full swing on the war economy, pulling away now would be a complete economic collapse. Anyone that doesn't treat these fascists as such are either living in their own bubble or grossly misinformed.

They absolutely intend to take the Baltic states.
