we get bugger all money for it, but that’s not the point.

Money is the point for most people, I would think. Altruism doesn’t pay the bills.

My neighbor across the street has solar panels. I chatted with him once, and he brought them up. I asked if he got the battery wall too, and he said no, but seemed slightly miffed. Then, he said his electric bill was $60/mo. I probably didn’t seem suitably impressed, I didn’t tell him mine is $50/mo. and I don’t have solar panels, I just don’t use much electricity. I wanted to ask whether he was leasing them, or took out a loan for them, but didn’t.

I think the only way residential solar panels make sense is to have a battery, especially in the winter when we get a lot less sun, and most people are at work during the day, so a lot of residential electrical use is after sunset. That’s why I asked, but I didn’t say any of that to him.

I don’t. I didn’t on Reddit, either.

It’s an exciting story with plenty of shouting and spittle.

It’s faster, but is the end result good, or just “good enough, it works for now, and I get paid”?

Looks like a good place for some street art.

What do you mean, exactly, by “boldly”?

I don’t let it get to me.

I usually go through the store following the same path, picking up the same items every week. If something is blocking the way, I’ll skip the aisle and come back to it. Every time, when I come back, the aisle is clear.

No one owes me anything. They don’t owe me walking faster, or staying out of the aisle, or whatever other little things people bitch about because apparently they’ve run out of important things to bitch about. Life should be so good for all of us.

People all over the world make good livings at jobs you’ve never heard of, or imagined existed. Jobs that will not be done by machines anytime soon.

Headlines to drive clicks, that’s all it is.

You’re just mad because we’re in front.

Same, everything but socks and underwear goes on a hanger.

I’m at a complete loss.

I suppose for a large house, $500/mo. is what one would pay for maid service.

I don’t believe one robot can effectively clean piss from the corner behind the toilet, AND do laundry, AND clean windows, AND dust, AND clean a shower head, AND clean a refrigerator, etc., etc.

Imagine a robot collecting everything out of a fridge onto a counter, removing the glass shelves, cleaning them, cleaning the inside of the fridge, and then putting everything back without breaking anything, and doing it in 30 minutes. Not happening. Even if it were done completely by remote control, I don’t think it could do it.

These things are not anywhere close to a replacement for a human, but they’ll keep pushing it.

Yeah, little guy looks like he learned his lesson. It’ll be fine.

If it’s ethical to abort just because you don’t want the kid (and it is), then it’s ethical to abort for any reason.

Also, it’s no one’s business why people choose to abort.

I pee sitting. I also wipe sitting.

People who stand to wipe are the real weirdos in my book.

Thanks for the reminder. I think I’ll rewatch Penny Dreadful. Eva Greene and Timothy Dalton, what’s not to like?

Good on you for wearing them without complaining.

Looks like something Rick and Morty would dream up.
