Comparing hotels in Colorado to hotels in New Mexico, where cannabis was illegal during the study period, the team’s analysis found that “on average, monthly hotel revenue increases by 25.2% upon the legalization of recreational marijuana dispensaries ...

The type of location also plays a crucial role, with hotels in resort areas benefiting the most from retail dispensary legalization

I'm kind of skeptical about the conclusions here because from what I understand everything in Colorado got more expensive and crowded over that time period, especially in resort areas, which probably was because of other factors too.

Did Canada take back the top bit at some point?

I hadn't, but I took the time to install and test both.

  • Overseerr: Looks like you need to sign in with a Plex account to start using it. Since that is a centralized service, and because I've heard they've started cracking down on piracy, I'm not willing to do this.

  • Ombi: I was able to set it up with my local Jellyfin server, but it looks like it only has a search feature and a generic list of currently popular media without any personalized recommendations, which is the main feature I was thinking of here as lacking.

Unfortunately at the end of the day people like this will still be rich and not have to worry about the problems the rest of us do.

idk, personally I wish there were more convenient and effective discovery/recommendation tools for piracy, seems to be a big thing it's lacking.

This kind of reminds me of that time Apple made a big show of resisting court efforts to get them to unlock iphone data; they have every reason to cultivate an impression of caring about privacy, but this isn't actually evidence that they do. Giving them all this info about your life by holding a continual ongoing conversation about what you're doing on their servers is inherently pretty bad for your privacy in a way reassurances can't really fix.

There's a lot of reasons to prefer local AI instead and this is a big one.

It's pretty controversial but imo financial privacy from your government is important and a legitimate thing to want, especially when your government is terrible. Hopefully Russians are able to find ways to evade this.

Well it is from the youtube transcript which interprets "ninety sixty" as 960. I didn't want to watch the video either so there's not much point trying to proofread for accuracy and I didn't bother, but I'll correct that detail. If you want to watch the video and come up with your own summary, feel free. To me the important details here are that it is $350 and 16GB vram.

What is the reason to make one of these instead of wearing a regular respirator? They mention N95 masks being less comfortable, but this thing looks like the part that straps to your face is basically the same as a respirator. Just instead of filters you have to draw air through there's a fan, but why do you need the fan?

So I was reading this post and decided to make the tool described, as a userscript (I credit ChatGPT with doing most of the work, which went pretty quickly). To use it, install a compatible userscript browser extension such as https://violentmonkey.github.io/ , then press install on the linked page. Reddit comments should now have a 'copy-context' button that will put the comment chain in your clipboard. I made it for old.reddit so probably won't work with the redesign. Another limitation is that it will only work to copy what is on the current page, so if the comment chain is too deep it's not going to get all of it.

Any feedback is welcome. Also if someone who can read javascript wants to give it a once-over and confirm for people that it isn't malicious that would be cool too.
