A hot toddy is a good winter drink, there are various recipes but the main thrust is whisky, honey, hot water and winter spices. Maybe some lemon and herbs.

Snowballs are popular for some reason, advocaat and sparkling lemonade. Probably no good if you don't like nog.

The white russian is probably a good move if you want something rich but don't like eggnog.

There are all kinds of punch suitable for winter, sloe gin (even if you don't like gin, sloe gin is a different beast) is a good move, other hedgerow fruits, cider and or a sweet, fruity red wine.

Mulled wine is always a good move for large groups.

Nah, shit holes is what they are adding. Tube stations aspire to be shit holes.

In some version of the myth they actually put an exit back to the living world up there. Sisyphus in life tried to cheat death (even succeeded for a bit) which is part of why he wound up in Tartarus. He could stop pushing the rock any time he wanted, but it would mean giving up on escape.

More expected than impressive. They didn't invent warped moral frameworks but they do buy from the market leader. The accusations aren't to convince people to leave the other team, it's to allow people to justify taking those actions themselves. Stochastic vote manipulation of you will.

Which just goes to show his lack of presidential authority. - magas (I expect.)

Cut to a billionaire pushing orphans into the orphan crusher.

Would you like to know more?

The "This one neat trick big water won't tell you about" to "the government can't tell me not to dig my well next to my latrine" pipeline (aquaduct?) is real.

Can push California to 5 syllables if you really want to.

I'm also depressed though.

Sure, the thing is, to extend the analogy, you are asking for there to be slightly smaller nuts. Nuts that for reasons imperceptible to the eye, won't fit good bolts. Nuts for which a manufacturer would have to build new machines to make.

It given that you expect to import it via Ali express, it is no more 'a just now' solution than doing the job right.

Do you mean slightly oversized plugs to force into old usb sockets? I don't know how you'd even supply chain that, being that the changes are probably within the tolerance envelope, or you are breaking the standard and that is far from a good idea. I also don't think this is usually the problem. In my experience it has been less the socket getting stretched and more it getting packed up with dust so the clips don't engage properly. Cleaning out the port tends to solve the problem.

If the port is actually mangled, better to do a proper fix on it. Because we stick to the standard the part cost is minimal so even if you are going to a tech you are mainly just paying labour and rent.

Probably better than just having their writing scraped and used without compensation. Not much better, mind.

I read a book recently (The Sparrow by Russell, good but harrowing) that referred to such programs as vultures, which was rather long-sighted given it was written in '96. Isn't even about AI either.
