You don’t speak the local language; are you looking to learn, to try to connect with the locals? An extended bus trip can provide that. If you’re just trying to get from one place to another, personally, I’d take the plane.

Edit: did cross-county USA twice by bus: NYC to SF, and a few years later LA to Philly. It was an interesting experience. I’m glad I did those trips, and I’ll by happy to not ever have to do them again.

Maybe French ketchup is different than American ketchup?

Pros: high protein food

Cons: makes a spoon dirty

Suggested improvements to recipe: note to thoroughly lick spoon clean, or use a finger to swipe up the peanut butter.

This is for people who might not have pasta sauce in their pantry, but most people will have ketchup in the fridge.

Jodie Foster has an IQ of like 132, and graduated from Yale.

Those are structural couches, providing a basin for more contents.

Las Vegas police are refusing to comply with the NFL’s new plan to use facial recognition technology for stadium employees during games. Even though police often use facial recognition to identify suspects, they say giving their biometric data to an unaccountable company crosses a line.

I’d’ve called the front desk when they were screaming at each other in the room. The front desk handles this sort of thing more than you and would have a better feel as to whether (for example) these are regular customers, how the local cops react, whether this is a normal or irregular occurrence for the area, etc. If the front desk or the cops had then stopped by the room with a noise complaint, that may have interrupted the disagreement enough that it may not have escalated later on. If they didn’t stop by with a noise complaint, I very likely would have done the standard ‘banging on the wall to get them to shut up’ thing, which may have had the same effect (I have trouble sleeping and this nose would’ve made me very irritable). I don’t know if I’d’ve opened my hotel room door, but I’d’ve at least looked out the peephole to assess the situation - and I’d’ve double-checked the lock and chain on the door during the first argument.

The same way you form any group: you meet regularly. Set a time and place that seems like it would be good for a good percentage of the people, and turn up there, every meeting. Have some of the meetings be about a concept or theme; let everyone know what the concept is ahead of time, so they can think about it and maybe do research or bring examples. And have some of the meetings be open meetings, where anyone can talk about stuff relevant to the group’s purpose. If it becomes a more active group, you may need to limit talking time per person in the open meetings; and if a particular topic catches fire in an open meeting, you can revisit the topic in a themed meeting.

But groups are formed the same way friendships are formed: people turn up regularly to spend time together. Some meetings you may be the only person there, but be open and welcoming to those that do show up.

So, all those videos where the cops are screaming “Stop resisting!” to some person who is laid out on the ground, not moving and not resisting, piled onto with eight cops holding them down - I’m sure the AI chatbot notices and notes down all that nuance, right?

Before you get into products or transplants or whatever, maybe try changing some habits? American College of Dermatology has an article on 10 things you may be doing that lead to damage or hair loss (along with what you can change to do it “right”). “Wrong” things include rubbing your hair dry with a towel and using the wrong-size comb.

Last month Musk said that he has had “enough of dodging gangs of violent drug addicts just to get in and out of the building.”

Are the roving gangs of violent drug addicts in the room with us now? Or do they go to a different school?

Imagine hating your own daughter that much. We need more people like Tennant, less people like Musk and Rowling.

If these are known common problems, shouldn’t Intel have accounted for them in their chip design?

The top handle is for someone stepping into or out of the tub. The lower handle is for someone trying to stand from a shower chair, or pulling themselves up from the floor.

Since it went off in your hands, have you tried googling the make and model to see if there are any similar complaints or even recalls for them?
