To address youth vaping. The outcome of that has been that youth vaping is significantly higher than in other OECD member countries, and kids are now getting them from the 'vape dealer' whom may have other illicit drugs available. Cigarettes aren't banned, only made unaffordable via progressive excise tax. That's had its own unintended consequences of launching a new market for "chop chop" i.e. illegally grown unprocessed tobacco, as well as black market imports that sidestep the plain packaging laws, and tobacco gang wars in Sydney and Melbourne.

The company made “more than a dozen technical improvements” to AI Overviews ...

... making the feature rely less heavily on user-generated content from sites like Reddit

So it prefers the results that Google normally deprioritizes? I guess we have that in common

Look for a dvdrip. At the time the episodes were originally aired they would pre on p2p sites as like 35mb .avi's in 240p, you don't want that

Dolphin is in a better state than it's ever been, now has a resampler so you can get those crisp pixels like on original hardware. For anyone whose interest is in actually playing old Nintendo games over speculating on their IP, even if they own a cartridge, they're probably playing on Dolphin.

This makes me sad. I had so much fun growing up learning about compression and encoding, ripping, tagging, spectral analysis. Listening to 24/96 vinyl FLACs on my parents old stereo with my pinky up. Hanging out with a bunch of 40-year olds on IRC. Good times, man

For when part of the herb that's loaded in your pipe doesn't get ignited by capillary action and you need to put the flame directly to it to get it to ignite. Since you're trying to manipulate the position of the flame it's easier for your fingers to get in the way. It's more of an edge case and you can just get better at using a normal lighter, so I'd say this is just for viral marketing if it's real

edit: and djeep lighters are better for this anyway

I had a look at the marketing image they used, it appears to be a fully generated image (with the card faces inserted afterwards). It isn't really anything to do with the plugins in Photoshop. That's a deliberate conflation of things like style transfer or inpainting with full generation via diffusion from random noise. The former starts with an image input which is presumably not made by AI

The only thing I want it to do is use simple context when searching something for me. If I have a sports event in my calendar, tickets saved to my wallet, and I say "Hey Google, what time does the {team} match start today?", it currently gives me a garbage answer linking to a Reddit post where someone asked that a year ago or something. The ecosystem already understands the info I want in this situation, they have all the data points, theres no sophisticated logic required to connect them. But Google Assistant can't do it, making it pretty useless other than for setting alarms and stuff. If your question isn't on the list of discrete preprogrammed functions then it just searches what you asked, which for my case should actually be "'{team} fixtures" or something. So it's often faster to just search manually in the first instance rather than trying to learn the obfuscated scope of what Google assistant can actually do.

The meme specified "perceived temperature", which I would assume to mean some combination of the temperature metric with a heat index, humidex, wind data, solar radiation estimates, or something like that
