i really don't see why you would make this robot. the fun part of cooking is coming up with new recipes, and if you can't do that google is free.

also there's dozens of recipe apps you can get already where you give it some ingredients you have and it spits out a list of things you can make including that

the difference here being i guess you can talk to this thing

We go through this phase every time some type of technology gets big. Think of all the dumb gadgets and gizmos from the mid nineteenth century onwards, like people proposing all kinds of tat powered by steam or radioactive substances. Now it's the turn of people desperately trying to find a novel use for smart tech. Same poo poo, different century.

Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is the 45th and current President of the United States. Before entering politics, he was a businessman and television personality.

Eh, it's his money and he can do whatever he wants with it. If he wants to announce to the world what a petty bitch he is, well that already happened whether or not he meant to do it.



But you know what else is reasonable? Making up some fake protest website/twitter/etc such that all participating businesses pledge to ban that guy all :foxnews: talking heads.


GOPers might be a better target, but going after fox guarantees trumf will have a meltdown over it.

The problem, he noted, was that the KashMiner proposal doesn’t take into account basic principles of the cryptocurrency. The bitcoin protocol will only release a fixed amount of cryptocurrency per day. As more miners — computer programs that run complex calculations to earn bitcoin — are added and compete with each other, these computations become harder and require more power. To expect computing speeds, known in the cryptocurrency world as “hash rates,” to remain steady “is ridiculous,” said Nicholas Weaver, a lecturer at the University of California, Berkeley.

“Over the last 6 months as more people have started to mine bitcoin, the hash rate has more than doubled, meaning you receive half as many bitcoins for the same amount of computing power,” Weaver said.

Dirt Candy in New York is a great place to eat that also doesn't allow tipping, just ups the prices and passes the increased revenue on to employees' wages. Plus, female- (and Canadian) owned and vegetarian.

did this race desertify their planet in the midst of a hedonistic pleasure craze? in a nuclear war? no it seems they did it to produce money and only started doing that 100 years after already realizing money had no intrinsic value and could be created at no cost and the economy would still function
