Oh nice, much more southern Oklahoma than southwestern Oklahoma for sure, but I've been there a few times

You might check the dbzer0 instance and if it's not there, you could create it there. It's pretty sailor friendly.

The Amazon's Mechanical Turk was never a con. It's been known for a very long time that it's a way to outsource human tasks on a large scale cheaply. Like, a very long time. I think I first heard about it like 12 years ago?

Unless you mean the way it exploits poor countries for cheap labor. I wouldn't call that a con, but it is fucked.

He's literally being sued by Mitchell, he has to stay on top of what he's doing.

I checked the original post text 3 separate times because I was so convinced Elon Musk wrote it. It sounds like this dude is Elon Musk on an alt account, it's so eerily similar to how he talks about technology.

A lot of people getting these installed don't have the choice. My new build home (2023) has gas and I was very frustrated by this, basically every home in my area uses gas and it's not something I could opt out of since I didn't control the home as it was being built. I do plan on replacing my gas appliances basically as soon as I can reasonably afford it, but there are other amenities new homes also don't come with that I need to deal with first.

Those are called thongs in some countries, but not tongs afaik. Also the US doesn't call them thongs, so this is for those people confused by this. Tongs are those things that are kind of like chop sticks but joined at the end so they can grab stuff - usually from hot places like a grill or stove.
