So how related are the professional game dev and professional alcoholic parts of your life?

He put out another Bad Boys sequel last year. I'm pretty sure he's doing aight financially. If not, he's a moron and it's funny because it's always funny when rich people go broke.

Well in the EU you get instant free payments through SEPA and the US is trying to implement something similar with FedNow. Doesn't solve the cross border issues, but Wise does once you can get the money on Wise. I get paid in dollars via ACH and they become euros real fast once I see them in my account. 1000 dollars converted is just under 3 dollars in fees and then the transfer from Wise to any other SEPA account is free and instant.

Now crypto could very well make this all even smoother worldwide but unfortunately we have governments and they like to see what's going on. So no reputable merchants will ever be able to take XMR payments in most countries.

ML was called AI before too, but since the consumer didn't interface with it directly usually, it was just part of the marketing, not the entirety of it.

Had a fancy ML algo power a small part of your solution? Your software is now AI powered.

Still increases your electricity bill. Why can't the smoker just have the common decency to not smoke next to an open window? I know I never do, it's just rude.

Fair enough - but then in a rental apartment, I wouldn't use electric either because usually the heating bill for central heating is calculated by apt size for everyone rather than usage, so I'd end up paying twice over. Newer buildings can have individual measuring devices which changes things.

You can, but they're very inefficient. A heat pump is significantly more efficient and can also keep you cool in the summer if necessary

I thought men's health month was in Movember?

This average height manlet here is glad to be off Tinder. It sucks. I'd honestly rather pay prostitutes. I've never done that, but seems better value for money if you value your time as much as money (and I personally value it more)

It's just two parallel lines for a long time if you remove all the people who aren't direct ancestors

Absolutely - if you're good about your opsec. If you're not, it's almost worse than a bank transaction and for sure worse than cash.
