Variety - a silly taskbar program that changes my background randomly from my own selected sources with added random quotes. I have it set to change my background every 3 hours and the quotes every hour I think. I just can’ live without it anymore.
While I tend to think Taylor Swift could best serve the world by simply sticking to flying her private jet down to the local 7-11 to get a carton of milk and a pint of ice cream while keeping her mouth shut, she has the right to say she will vote for Harris. And I fully support her right to make that choice and statement.
But I also firmly believe that celebrities should not use their notoriety or fame to push agendas. There are far too many easily swayed people out there who will follow the lead of famous people who espouse an idea that is dumber than cow shit simply because hey are famous - See Andrew Tate or a number of disgraced BBC reporters.

You need to find a better restaurant than Red Lobster.
A proper kitchen will crack open and loosen the meat before service.
Greed and jail is keeping him in the race. Followed by narcissism and the drive for power. (The last 2 are a requirements for a politician of any stripe).
No one elected Musk.
Tax the hell out of him.
Yes and worse. He only talks about the funny stuff. Though what might be funny to a table of EMS people, probably would make you ill to hear.
Never eat a meal with a table full of emergency medical personnel.
That ain’t “being really good” - That’s being stupidly lucky. I spent 20 years in the back of the bus, and I never had a revival on scene or in the rig. Nor did I ever meet anyone who ever made such a claim.
Quite often patients that are brought in with CPR in progress are called dead by the ER Doctor after another 20 or 30 minutes of effort or they do get a patient back and keep them going for another few days or a week or so. Only for the patient to finally die in hospital.
But, every so often someone surprises the hell out of us and actually survives and goes on to live for years. This is why we try as hard and as best we can to keep you alive. Because there is always a chance.
Now try doing CPR in the back of an amber-lamps bouncing down a gravel road at insane speeds while standing up and you have 50 miles, (80 Kms for those in Rio Linda) to the nearest hospital. Been there, done that, got way more tee-shirts than I ever wanted. Thank god for automatic CPR machines so I didn’t need to manually do CPR for 40 minutes straight anymore.
And we are only bound by a DNR IF we have the actual document in hand. Or as EMS, if CPR has already been started when we arrive, we are automatically obligated to continue. If it ain’t written down, it never happened. Nursing homes are supposed to provide the documents any time we transport such a patient as part of their medical history papers. And yes, we treat and transport a lot of such patients with a DNR that needs to go to a hospital for some reason.
Worst case scenario, entering a home with family gathered and grandma has a heart attack. And half the family wants me to start CPR and the other half tries to tell me grandma to let grandma go. I will ask them if they have the documents and they don’t answer me because they are too busy fighting each other to respond to me. And my poor driver is trying to literally breakup a fight while I’m doing CPR.

Yahoo, like all home pages and web news sites are aggregators. Just like most websites these days. There are few original sources for international and national news reporting anymore. And the vast majority of websites simply buy the news they want.
It’s one big circle jerk with everyone citing pretty much the same sources all the time.
2,204C is for those in Boca Raton and Rio Linda…
They try and use google, which doesn’t tell you anything about the information contained in the book. Or they complain about not being able to find the page they are told to look for.
Yep, students these days have no idea about the back of their books and how useful the index can be and the citations after that.
Even after repeatedly pointing it out, they still don’t make use of it. Despite the index being nearly a cheat code in itself.
As someone who has taught math to students in a classroom, unless you have at least a basic understanding of HOW the numbers are supposed to work, the tool - a calculator - is useless. While getting the correct answer is important, I was more concerned with HOW you got that answer. Because if you know how you got that answer, then your ability to get the correct answer skyrockets.
Because doing it your way leads to blindly relying on AI and believing those answers are always right. Because it’s just a tool right?
So you think a low payed adult worker will either?
Ain’t none of you people ever been inside a packing plant have you?
Do you one better - My mini-desktop is plugged into a monitor with no microphone or camera.
Emacs users laughing at VIM users.
Emacs - A pretty good OS you can use as a text editor.
I use Phind solving computer problems. It does cite the sources it uses. At least for distro and general Linux issues. So far, it’s been a very good resource when I’ve needed it.
