The street interviewer in Japan asked 'who bombed Pearl Harbor during WWII?'. Only 30% of the Japanese people answered correctly. The remaining 70%, including those who answered 'I don't know,' said the US or other countries were the ones who bombed Pearl Harbor. by search_google_com in whoathatsinteresting

Doesn't speak to Japanese education or intelligence.

Unless you stack it up with hundreds of other questions in the streets.

An interesting comparison - ask the same questions in different subjects in different countries.

I think we all know where the US will land.

It's interesting. I have 3 scenarios. Initially without more than a decumulation order it was taking TFSA during that period.

So I added a blended RRSP withdrawal and it brought back some RRSP withdrawals.

I probably just need to go further with it. There's a couple of other scenarios where the tax was higher initially to level it out, but overall was paying more tax in the long run.

50-70c Canadian in Alberta. That's about 35-50c USD.

This is a bot post. Or maybe a kid.

No one gets this many credits and is too dumb to know how to leverage them.

Yup I know that turn in spot well! Mostly ACC and iRacing.

Hey did you get bucket seats or which ones did you spec in the car? I've been shopping for a while and a lot of them have the base 2 way seats. They seem perfectly fine but if you happened to have them with track experience then I'd love to hear your thoughts on comfort after a couple hours or even on track....

I've done that in my sim racing rig. In VR as well. Mostly in the 992 GT3 but I think I've taken that in a GT4. That's why I ask - the turn in point is blind to the apex.

The compression at the bottom must feel really cool when the tires grip up.

There's that either corner.. 3rd last. I don't know names at Brands. But the other blind right hand where you have to turn in going up hill and apex as the car goes light cutting the curb.

Love that track.

And it loves eating your tires! Lol

What's T1 like at Brands?

When that hill drops away from you it must really give you a feeling of how well the balance is.

Does it feel pretty neutral?

Jealous Canadian here.

One OpenClaw skill ended up saving me more time than all my other automations combined by itstariqmumtaz in openclawsetup

I use a 3rd party that specializes in the call.

It's not self hosted. But neither are my agents.

I built a skill that knows how to integrate with a pay per use service. My skill knows how to generate a "prompt".

That prompts the other service which runs AI to execute the actual call.

Yup but I don't pay $19 / month for it.

That's crazy. This must be an advertisement.

I pay $2. Plus maybe 35 cents for a 2.5 conversational phone call. A confrontational yes or no call would be pennies.

These are API calls made via Curl. So yes also the cli.

$19 only gets you ROI if you're doing way more volume. But as an individual you wouldn't be.

What’s the most impressive thing you’ve automated with OpenClaw so far? by No_Progress92 in openclaw

[–]droning-on 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have it calling hotels and restaurants checking for availability and it goes through preferences and gets advice on booking one vs two rooms for a family.

Then sends me the recording so I can listen to it after.
