AI hardware is a sales pitch without a clear product. Consumers have no clue why they would want to buy something with AI on it.

For most consumers AI is a webpage that kids cheat on homework or adults attempt to cheat at work with. It makes ugly fake pictures with all sorts of weird errors. Its also the annoying as fuck answering services that you have to yell at 4 or 5 times to get to a real person.

Why would an AI PC be desirable?

It’s worth $30 more per year. Aka it’s a subscription rate hike.

They hiked up all of the subscriptions. Then made it confusing as fuck to subscribe back to the one that you had.

It adds flex to the container for variations of atmospheric pressure. It’s what they mean by the fill levels.

Milk containers are filled by weight. The exact volume of the liquid can vary slightly based upon the atmospheric pressure.

If the container has no flex the top will pop off or the sides will crush in with pressure changes say when a truck drives over a mountain pass to deliver the milk.

The real solution would be for the EU to mandate an standardized open source connection platform that all car companies are required to support.

I currently use android auto on my truck. I had to make a bunch settings modifications to make it semi-functional. It took me months to figure out how to get it to do what I wanted, when I wanted it

They have been proven multiple times to significantly decrease productivity but they are cheaper to build. Visual and sound distractions break up concentration when you are tying to work.

I had one place that insisted on an open office with these these torture style “ergonomic” chairs. I hated the setup so did some sleuthing. The chair model was discontinued because they sucked and the company got them on a steep discount. The “open office” desks where 1/8 the price of a traditional cubical setup.

Strange, what mysterious land is this where farm laborers are paid fairly. I have traveled to every continent and 40+ countries visiting thousands of farms. Never have I found a place where farm laborers were paid fairly. They are always the abused serfs of the society working long hours for little pay.

I have seen human suffering in vast quantities but never a fair wage.

He’s also a dust mop for the warehouse.

The USDA-NASS is responsible for making an estimate of the number of corn cobs in the U.S. Most other countries have similar organizations.

To do so they send surveys out to ask farmers what they think. The farmers answer completely truthfully because lying would inflate the prices they get on their corn cobs.

Trichoderma is the genus, there is currently 89 different species classified.

That being said, they did use the species that became a primary pathogen as an antifungal for many years. As soon as the species was identified as a primary pathogen the suppliers changed to another related species. They also claimed to have mislabeled the species on what they sold before (bullshit of course).

It tastes like a corny mushroom. Do not try them from a jar. Those taste more like a slimy snot rag.

It’s an obligate parasite that enters the corn plant via tiny wounds when it’s the plant is small. The most common source of wounding is insect damage or wind. Sandy soil + wind creates the highest incidence. Once you find some hotspots it’s easy to find.

Since corn is a critical crop in many regions its one of the most studied species on the planet. Even a post about shitty corn is interesting.

Nobody spreads corn seed. It needs to be planted at least 1.5" deep.

It needs to be DRILLED in 2-3".

I would sent you pictures of it but I don’t save smut to my phone.

Me and my 10,000 pictures of corn disagree. You need to see them all!!!

It doesn’t just grow on the ears either. It often grows on the stalk or tassel.

Wait a bit until that little fella matures and then produces spores. It will be about 4x the size in those pictures. Bumping into them covers you in dark black spores that sticks around on your clothing.

Damnit I forgot to mention that the trichoderma rot causes the kernals to suffer from premature-germination. The stress causes them to pop off too soon.

Not bad for a cell phone picture. Eventually I’m going to get myself a decent camera.

Huitlacoche is quite tasty. I’ve had it several times in Mexico.

It’s also a myth. Corn doesn’t have the biochemical pathway. It does however produce exudates from the roots that promote nitrogen fixing bacterial in some environments.

In most environments applying these bacteria does jack shit.
