Depends on the price difference and the time involved. And the weather. And who’s driving.

Let’s say it’s me driving and the costs are covered, so the trip is free no matter what I choose. I think I’d pick the road trip.

But if it’s too cold or rainy I’ll pick the flight. Seems like a waste though, unless the flight is over 24hrs in which case I’d be happy to do so first class

Well… Mine is baited.

Ok but why on Science Memes? I’m also confused, not downvoting but wondering wtf why here.

Waiting with baited breath for Lemmy community to turn this into a science meme

Well it’s been good while it lasted, then

Please to anyone reading this headline, remember: this is just for certain heart benefits. Exercise in lower amounts still gives you other health benefits compared to zero minutes of exercise. If you had a ten minute routine three times a week, please don’t drop it.

Ok so I’m not very into tech and I had a hard time understanding what was going on especially since I didn’t know what Microsoft Azure was. So TIL that’s a computing cloud system, and that now you have a Linux distro called Azure as well which can be run on this cloud for some reason but also on your laptop (I guess it operates from the cloud? Bit confused about that too)

Now the million dollar question: why? Why is Microsoft doing this? They are obviously seeing a path to fuck people over in a couple of chess moves, but I’m not good at this game, so here I’m asking those of you who actually understand the significance of this

Looks great!

I like its very very suspicious eyes

I would also be confused af. First, I would think it wants me to tap objects with a somewhat glossy surface, even though all of them actually reflect light. But having sorted the first trick in this question, I am now confronted with two other questions: is a body of water considered an “object”? Also, are those actually photos of a river or are they illustrations of a river? They don’t look realistic to me… Because if they’re illustrations then they wouldn’t be particularly more reflective than anything else in this set of images

I hate these things

Interesting, I can’t say I lived in Melbourne other than during a holiday visit. Maybe I should say NSW

Agreed

So is Australia apparently. I’ve seen this joke a few times and the first time I had to ask what the hell it was all about. I’ve seen my share of gardens with mint in it and not only it doesn’t take over everything, it’s also very susceptible to insects. A fully grown plant will disappear over the weekend if the right caterpillars find it.

Lantana, now, that’s a problem

Fortunately last time I saw my doctor I saw her type everything herself as I spoke.

I’ll be honest, my economics understanding is rudimentary so what I read makes little to no sense to me. I need an ELI5 version, not just a summary. I vote OK because I didn’t read anything outrageous, but should I fully understand the implications I may decide to change my mind. I don’t see much in the way of job security or job creation though, please correct me if I’m wrong. Job market is tough

If you read the article it will summarize very succinctly everything wrong with it. It is illegal for a variety of reasons in some places (Europe, California) it’s wasteful, it means 4 fucking GB of data unrequested which can be a problem in metered connections in many places. 4GB. This model is not essential for chrome to function as a browser at all, and in all likelihood unless you use it for generating text then you probably are not even using it.

Yup it’s exactly as the headline says once you read the article. No clickbait. Also is a thorough and readable post, long but easy to understand even for someone who isn’t very tech savvy such as myself.

I guess I have to figure out how to uninstall that now

SO MUCH NOPE NOPE NOPE BUT THE PHOTOS ARE SO GOOD

I was going to ask what phone you used then I read you have a proper camera. Good job

Or Photoshop.

Also I’ve burned copper wire for fun and the green flame appears for just a second or so, once it burns (I guess the surface oxidizes? ) it stops. If they put copper on the burners they must have some impressive coordination and speed to turn all three and snap the photo before the reaction is over

Yeah. Ever since I started tracking mine with an app I specifically looked for one that didn’t send my data anywhere. There’s no reason to. It’s just a fucking private calendar, a list of dates and notes. Why that ever needs to leave your device beats me

Just vomit, so, from their mouths. I think
