#HappyHolidays2025 Red cedar (Juniperus virginiana) is a conifer: female trees bear waxy, berry-like cones, which birds eat. It's native to the eastern 2/3 of North America & when used as Christmas trees & planted, they build habitat in your yard.

no one ever had to be forced to use *good* tech.
"All of this falls apart if humans don't adopt the tech. This is why you've seen Meta cram its lame chatbots into WhatsApp and Instagram. This is why Notepad and Paint now have useless Copilot buttons on Windows. This is why Google Gemini wants to "help you" read and reply to your emails."
Analysis: OpenAI is a loss-making machine, how can it survive?
Don't call it a bubble! Loss-making monster OpenAI is on the hook for $1.4 trillion (with a T) in compute commitments. How can this go on?

If a phone still works fine, it’s not “device hoarding” to keep using it. It’s common sense.

The debate over whether he means things like this literally is tangential to the reality that this guy has spent over a decade wondering aloud into the world’s largest megaphone whether anyone among his violent, unstable followers will rid him of these turbulent priests.

The genus name for American harvester ants, Pogonomyrmex, means "bearded ant", and it refers to a basket of hairs on the underside of the head that helps these desert ants carry dry sand.

Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

The problem is that the body politic has a short memory and the midterms are almost a year away
This is a huge weight on the GOP going into the midterms, but I’m concerned about the 3 percent who drank the kool-aid completely.
