Where do you source the ingredients?

They list party affiliation on the ballot under the names.

The problem seems to be in treating all photographs as art and thinking about what the camera is doing at all. I've been filming so much of my every day life since my kid was born and it's never gotten in the way of actually being present. Sure, the videos are often pointed off to the side and very shaky, and the subject may not even be in frame at all, but it still sufficiently captures the moment to be worthwhile. We take these videos to preserve memories, not for whatever artistic value they may have.

And it allows users to create their own one-off objects that they need rather than a corporation creating an immense surplus of parts the majority of which will never reach consumer hands and will end up in a landfill.

This is key. You can 3D print things to fit your exact needs. Mass produced injection molded plastic is only cheap because of the mass production. Molds are expensive. That means they necessarily have to produce a lot more than people need and market them to people who don't actually need the item in order to make up for the upfront cost.

There are a bunch of different definitions people use for introversion/extroversion. "Extroverted introvert" means you're extroverted by one definition and introverted by a different one.

I don't see how the vote count contradicts that message. As of this moment, the vote count (upvotes - downvotes) is 110 on the parent comment criticizing the use of AI art and 260 on the main post. Technically a minority, but it's a sizable minority.

I also don't agree that it's off-topic. The contents of the meme is the topic. The contents are AI generated, so that makes it one of the topics.

I can't figure this one out. Is it an actual dad joke or is it a meta dad joke where the joke is that "dad joke" = joke about dads?

Yes, because they still allow you to spend your money elsewhere if a new storefront appears on the market. Epic is actively preventing that.

Maybe you can expand a bit on what you think the scientists did wrong?

I think at this point, it would be more economical to distill the water than to burn up contaminants.

My filter is somehow always empty. I don't understand where all the food goes. It's not like I clean off all my plates perfectly before putting them on there.

No, see, you start with the assumption that everything is zero-sum, then you look at the other guy to see suffering and conclude that you must therefore be winning.
