Yah, prediction interval instead, right? (I'm still learning statistics)

Saying there's a confidence interval for run-to-run makes no sense, from the way I understand it, because each run could have a result that's all over the place.

Even added a little hat for the pelican!

It really does seem like an organized operation, given that it's so prevalent and they all seem to be in lockstep with their specious claims.

That AI data centers are drinking up local ground water for cooling. It isn't (or wasn't) nonsense, though. It was/is a real thing, though it seems to be on the out in favor of closed loop cooling after the massive and still on-going public outcry.

I don't understand how they get around bot blockers and captcha. I use Hermes locally and you can't get around any of that, even using your own credentials.

This exactly! It sounds like a good thing in theory, but in practice everything is blocked that I've ran into, using Hermes to try to automate things like this. It's not just bot blocks either, but things like Captcha and such.

Can you look for sailors in your Shenmue experience? That's highly critical to include!

I have exactly one friend. I had two, but one of them recently passed away suddenly. At 51, I can definitely say it's very hard to meet anyone. I guess I need to start playing D&D or board games or disc golf.

Wouldnt' crucify you for that at all, that's a clever setup and I'm gonna steal it :D

Hey just a correction, there was indeed a physical release of BG3 on PS5. It was released straight from Larian and came on 2 discs, dual-layer 100GB to be exact. Xbox Series as well, but it came on 4 discs due to capacity limits.

Your point stands, though. Games have grown so huge that downloading them isn't a hassle for most, but disc definitely is or has maxed out. That's not to mention how long it takes to install stuff, especially on PS5!

Just a minor correction: Commando is superior to True Lies ;)

I'm glad our homes aren't shrieking at us at all hours.

Amazing story, though.
