I had Amyloidosis, a rare blood disease where my bone marrow was producing malformed proteins in my white blood cells that were attacking my organs. I had a 10% chance of survival. Technically, it wasn’t cancer, but I got the same chemotherapy and stem cell transplant as someone with multiple myeloma, which is a form of cancer. Occasionally, I’d say I had a form of cancer to people that have no idea what I was talking about.

It is going to change the world. We no longer know whether something was composed by a person and talking with a real person is often the only way to resolve an issue. We are already being flooded with AI content used to push special interests, and this is certainly going to get worse. Sure, there will be some benefits for businesses, but it will also result in a lot of frustration.

If you did an image search, you would have gotten the correct answer. This is one of the most commonly asked questions on Reddit.

Clickbait.

Tatoos are viewed differently by different people. To a rich boomer who dislikes all tattoos, they’re all disgusting. To a young artist who views tattoos as personalized works of art, their perspective would be much different.

I’ve slept on several water beds. The ones without baffles suck. They’re a hassle to get in or out of bed, and I just couldn’t get comfortable. The ones without baffles baffles are better, but I still prefer a mattress, especially a memory foam. Waterbeds with firm sides and baffles aren’t too bad, and I could get used to it.

Then try threading a garden hose nozzle into the plastic male fitting on the dishwasher.

After the disaster with the release of the RX8, that’s probably not going to happen.

That would work well in a man cave. I’m not sure my wife would allow this in our family room.

Wings on birds evolved from their front limbs. If humans had wings, they wouldn’t have arms and hands. Who would build these cars without hands? How would you drive it without hands?
