Reading The Road as a new father. Fuck that. Made me cry.

American Movie. Sweet film about a quirky but determined film maker to make a movie and hit it big. The characters are fantastic slices of Americana.
Anvil. Film about a heavy metal band who almost made it and try one last time. The crazy part is the night I watched it they were playing in my home town. I regret not going to see them. They are just a few normal guys who are lived by their community and once rocked out on the same stage as Metallica.
Ooh… That is good news. Thank you. Screw Big Blue.
I know this deviates from your question a bit so I am apologizing up front (the sovcit posts that I love have made me wanna deviate)… I really like wunderground. I hate that IBM bought them though but it’s probably to monetize their trove of weather data. they have access to private weather stations, great viz of weather data by the hour, history to the day, etc. I use nextdns.io to block ads to the best of my ability but I know there is some device info they collect. It does have a rubust section on opting out and deleting tracking data. I don’t see lighting tracking regretfully. It’s worth trying out. The website can show lighting BTW.
You are mean. They’ll have nightmares.
Simply responding due to our related names. The Frank part… Not the pooping.
I think overall the responses are not tone deaf and are fairly reasonable. Most mechanics shops (aside from a minor two garage shop) that I have been to throughout my metroplex over a long period of years and multiple cars have jobs that take days due to analysis, buying parts and install. Unless I call ahead and schedule a very specific task where I know just taking in a book for 3 or 4 hours will work, I’m walking to the nearest bus stop, riding my bike or calling a cab. There are maybe 6 chairs and 15+ vehicles sitting outside or in bays from my experience. The customers are typically not sitting in the lobby. I think the OPs expectations are a bit off.
Preach.
My secretlabs chair has a headrest, adjustable lumbar, height, lockable recline, armrest height and width and side to side. It might even have a forward and backward seat cushion but I haven’t messed with that in awhile so I don’t remember. I was very specific about this brand as an example and I think it competes very effectively with other quality office chairs. Your hyperbole is lost on me.
Can I please suggest gaming chairs should be a key player here? SecretLabs makes amazing chairs and I sit on one everyday. One of my female employees isn’t too enthused about her’s but she’s the outlier. I also fully support/love the Hag Capisco. Have it as well and it is very very comfortable albeit a little tall on its shortest setting.
Hiking.
I use digital when my life doesn’t depend on it.
Edit: bought it last month.
Beastie Boys.
Bush.
Justin Timberlake.
Gwen Stefani.
I retired my trusty 2012 Mac mini a year ago. It just got unruly. The M2 mini is fantastic and I paired it with a Synology 920+. I don’t think the RAM is critical unless you are moving lots of data all of the time from the local machine. I think SSD/NVME cache is where it’s at.
It’s strange that it has a 90 for the clean out and also has an open connection on the right. If this is a vent stack it should be stinking up the place always. I guess maybe when the washing machine drains it creates some negative pressure that causes methane to leak in. If the vertical pipe is actually a vent stack you should be able to plug the open connection on the right side. Another comment is make sure any p trap has a bit of water in it. Traps will also leak methane when they start to dry out.
Soap. Two thumbs up. Less drying, less packaging, good for everything.
I don’t recall that at all. Crazy.
Where will the target be? Online or local? Rsync is really easy to use and the target files are browse-able. I could be too dense but I find online buckets aren’t easily browse-able. Even a homemade NAS might be a good choice and it’s easily scalable.
That’s a chair? It shouldn’t just be growing there randomly. So you live in a highly humid environment? Eesh.
As others have noted, LLMs are prone to error and need review. They can be very helpful in taking large amounts of information and making it more concise.
To your question about how AI can generally be of use, AI is good at taking large amounts of information we humans normally would have issue consuming and reacting to and giving us reactions based on the algorithm we gave it related to the info. I’ll give you an example from my life that may make sense to you as a fellow small business owner.
I used to work for a large company that had a travel agent. I used to travel every week and was told to use the agency to book my flights. The corp has specific requirements about 2nd best cost and non stop vs 1 stop. I could end up with a crappy seat and extra flight stops and had no control officially. Back then I would use Expedia to stitch together what flights I wanted and then casually provide constraints to the agency so that I would get exactly the carrier, non stop flights and decent seats… But it required time to figure these things out. I was the AI taking all of the info thay mattered to me and crafted my result based on what I wanted. I would game the agency/corp’s constraints to get the one flight I wanted.
AI could be useful for managing your schedule (personal and work) to book sessions for clients. One could argue that how hard is it to just let clients book into your schedule, but consider Motion app. Motion can watch how you book clients, when you take lunch, when you normally start or end days, and help move appointments around or create availability on the fly. You could tell an AI app like motion that you need prep and clean up time, you take longer lunches two days a week, etc…
As with all AI you can do what it does. What’s interesting is AI can learn your processes and start to anticipate like a good Admin executive… But it takes training and maintenance. That’s the expensive part. Maybe time, maybe money, maybe both.
To make a long post longer, AI could help with marketing. It’s like the old school mail inserts, but with extra smarts. I’m sure there are AI marketing tools that take certain data and constraints and then shoot out various emails, calls, texts and posts to the demos you need at a frequency and amplitude that the tool thinks matches your business model. I’m speculating at this point tho.
