If you ask for cooking or cleaning advice and it hallucinates you’re still at square zero regardless.

Unless it tells you to mix bleach and ammonia 😆

Where, the U.S.? Seems like there’s gotta be other times and places that were more woman- and queer-friendly, right?

Yeah, antibiotics is a big one. Plus, some of my skills might actually still be useful in the 40s.

But life did suck in a lot of places for a lot of people in the 40s. WW2, the devastation left behind by WW2, and horrible social attitudes. Good luck in ‘the west’ if you’re not a straight white cis man.

You could probably memorise how to identify the right fungus and isolate penicillin, right?

ive just heard of an incident where students redirected their books codes to p**n. can i make sure that doesnt happen?

This is kind of confusing, or at least leaves a lot of detail out 😆 Did the domain lapse? Did their short-URL account get hacked? In any case, your QR code will just be encoding a URL. Ultimately, any URL can be redirected by someone out there; so it’s just a matter of trusting that whoever has that access won’t act maliciously, and that malicious actors can’t gain access.

also, im using google to generate them, is there a foss alternative as im scared of tracking.

There absolutely are, just search and you should find plenty. Again, though, the QR code is just encoding a URL. Does Google use their own short-URL service for their generated QR codes? Just scan the QR code and look at the URL it encodes. If it’s only the URL you want - not some Google short-URL that then redirects to the URL you entered - then there can’t be any tracking done on it by Google.

lastly, can i make the qr code redirect to a specific page of a pdf

Covered by another commenter already, but for completeness: yes, you just add #page={n) at the end of the URL, e.g. https://dagrs.berkeley.edu/sites/default/files/2020-01/sample.pdf#page=5

Yeah, #page={n) works, e.g. https://dagrs.berkeley.edu/sites/default/files/2020-01/sample.pdf#page=5

ROCK ‘N’ STONE, BROTHER!

I already did a ‘Test’ in reply to your ‘Test’.

EDIT: Oh, I see I was beaten to it and hadn’t refreshed. In any case, I’m just replying to your post with my comment above, not doing the test.

Btw, you can edit the text of your post to say ‘current bottom-level’ (instead of ‘top level’) which is what you mean.

(figured I may as well, while I’m here, haha)

It’s open source, so you could just go find that answer in the code, right?

Also, now I think of it, couldn’t you just do this with one account?

I don’t mean to ruin the fun or anything 😆

Not AI, but there’s a crowd-sourced extension for skipping sponsored sections called ‘SponsorBlock’: https://sponsor.ajay.app/

“Cool! What are they for?”

Out of curiosity, wat were the biggest changes you implemented?

My changes were basically three stages:

1. Cut out sugary drinks (both soft drinks and juice)
2. Keto
3. Intermittent fasting (this is much easier when you’re already doing keto)

But even just cutting out sugary drinks made a big difference.

Would you do anything differently given hindsight?

I’d do it sooner. I’d also not get so caught up in trying to make keto food that mimics carby food (though maybe it actually is worthwhile doing it in the early days if you have cravings for certain things).

You can definitely lose weight off your feet, same thing happened to me.

EDIT: okay, I see now the URL is already in your list, but I’m gonna let it stand. Honestly, people, paste the titles as well!

Would have been better if it was just the minimum wage in general that was raised, of course, but pay rises in one industry will push up pay in others, and hopefully this union victory will help to motivate union efforts in other industries.

I’m guessing the nominal justification may be ‘because fast food workers don’t get tips’, but the actual reason is in the article. In short, the fast food workers unions were getting somewhere:

Newsom’s signature reflects the power and influence of labor unions in the nation’s most populous state, which have worked to organize fast food workers in an attempt to improve their wages and working conditions.

It also settles — for now, at least — a fight between labor and business groups over how to regulate the industry. In exchange for higher pay, labor unions have dropped their attempt to make fast food corporations liable for the misdeeds of their independent franchise operators in California, an action that could have upended the business model on which the industry is based. The industry, meanwhile, has agreed to pull a referendum related to worker wages off the 2024 ballot.
