As awful as it is, YouTube's disdain for its viewers isn't really the big dealbreaker for me. It's their disdain for their content creators. If creators were treated like first-class citizens as much as ad sellers and copyright holders holders are, I'd absolutely subscribe to Premium. Creators get three strikes, but copyright trolls can submit as many bogus claims as they want. Ad companies get to dictate what videos their ads can and can't appear on, but creators have to put up with whatever ads YouTube decides should run on their videos. All this despite creators being far more critical to YouTube's success than ads.

I don't play in creative mode, or with any cheats, if that's what you're asking. This save started from scratch and unlocked as I went along. It's my 3rd or 4th one, and is tied for the farthest I've ever progressed.

After going through the early game a few times now, I think my recommendation is a mix between the two: beeline (however much you're comfortable with) to a certain midpoint, where you've got most of the real powerful stuff unlocked, then start being more methodical/thoughtful/permanent. In this playthrough, I started building permanent stuff after unlocking coal power and Mk.3 belts, and I think that was actually early. I think I should have waited for Mk.4 belts. That ensures you have access to all the really important cosmetic buildables, like pillars and beams, as well as some really important functional stuff like smart splitters and trains.

Use of AI (actually Machine Learning) in the medical field has been going on for a LONG time, and has nothing to do with the recent explosion of mostly-useless LLMs. And even if this weren't the case, the way some technology was developed kinda doesn't matter a whole lot when it's going to be put through a rigorous testing process to determine it's actual efficacy. Which is what this article is talking about: taking a drug that's already gone through a bunch of non-human testing and moving to the next step.

I know the US government is doing its damndest to dismantle safety regulations, avross all industries, but I don't think we're quite at the point that we should be alarmed at new possible cancer treatments.

Submitted. Thanks for the heads up.

Sounds loke she found the line for being a fall guy that she wasn't willing to cross.

Not that anyone really believed Elon isn't calling all the shots here.

I read it to mean that this method has confirmed "almost no real person has spoken to me".

You're gonna have a tough time. Better off taking the hypertube.

I don't do budgeting, per-se. For personal expenses, the idea of pre-planning everything we're going to spend just seems like overkill. Maybe that's just cause we're not close enough to the poverty line for real financial hardship. But I find a reactive approach works well, rather than proactive.

I keep an accounting ledger that I update every 1-2 weeks. The ledger is just a big Excel (actually LibreOffice Calc) file that I setup with some formulas and pie charts to make it easy to see when expenses are outpacing income, and what our biggest expenses are if we need to cut down for a while (spoilers: it's utilities and food).

I've tried a handful of different free accounting applications in the past, but never found one I liked for the above purposes. I ended up starting a project to make my own, like a year ago, but I haven't gotten around to finishing it. The spreadsheet approach has been working well enough. All the custom app would do is help automate the data entry.

Bacon Cheeseburger.

I re-watched the movie a few months ago, and I had a similar realization: it was quite depressing to see a depiction of NASA that is now entirely lost to us.
