Slightly different, but I've had people insist on slop.
A higher up at work asked the difference between i.e. e.g. and ex. I answered, they weren't satisfied and made their assistant ask the large language model. Their assistant reads the reply out loud and it's near verbatim to what I just told them. Ugh
This is not the only time this has happened
If I'm remembering right, transportation of a food item makes up no more than 2% of the total carbon emissions for that food item.
Eating local produce can have a big impact on the quality and freshness of food, but has comparatively small environmental impacts. It won't make beef greener than beans, no matter where you choose to get each from.
That will work in some regions. In others you may need to rent a bear canister. Talk to your local rangers to find out what's appropriate, it depends on the local bears.
Ugh, same. Really any memespeak, even if it's far older than the internet. Growing up every social group seemed to have a child who would endlessly quote movies. Somehow this is worse.
The most unpleasant may be "Imagine..." followed by some convoluted story. It always feels like an attempt to slightly disguise bullying. Even when it's directed at a detestable public figure, and it feels like a useful rhetorical construct.
The wooden deck is a weird element to bring into it. In the US decks are sometimes there for conservancy reasons. They're present along parts of the Appalachian trail.
I might instead draw the line based on whether members of your party are putting it up and taking it down as part of the trip.
But I could also see electricity being a reasonable dividing line. Like a cabin several miles from where you can get a motorized vehicle might be more camping than a tent in your backyard that you ran an extension cord and a TV out to.
I'm ok with others drawing lines elsewhere though.
I tear up at most movies. It's not a sad movie, but Everything Everywhere All at Once holds the current record for most cries.
Generally if a movie doesn't make me tear up at least once that's a bad sign. At the same time I don't gravitate towards tearjerkers, they can feel emotionally manipulative and heavy handed.
I almost never cry for TV shows or books.
I liked them. The arc of the first two is over. You get more details about the Shrike, but if you've gone years without reading further, I can't imagine it's that pressing.
If you reach a point where you're looking for sci fi, and don't have another obvious choice, go for it you'll probably like them. But I wouldn't recommend shifting them above anything in your backlog. Hyperion and Fall off Hyperion really are the stars here.
Fall of Hyperion is a good stopping point. I liked 3 and 4 as well, but they're doing their own thing. I tend to think of it as two separate pairs rather than as a single 4 book series.
I can't really visualize things in general. Due to that, if you tell me it's muddy that's most of the information I get. My brain won't automatically try to put mud on the horses or add other details.
Here the specifics help a lot and I have a better sense of the muddy day for it.
AI aside, different voices may be immersion breaking. I tend to avoid audiobooks with more than a single narrator.
Maybe function first helps with cosplaying as rural. People get very up in arms about frame type. The twice yearly sedanfull of potting soil is incredibly serious.
