Yeah. I imagine the lag in time for a coach to determine a good passing target, communicate that to the QB, have the QB find that player to throw to, and time the throw correctly would add seconds to the play. You’re also now relying on a coach’s reflex, which is something they aren’t selected for.

Do Ork nipples also cut glass?

I don’t see how the use or nonuse AI affects the adoption of a vending machine or self checkout.

You’re likely hitting a point where the level of protection is very expensive yet spending the money isn’t politically popular. That Trump has had multiple attempts on his life recently and there hasn’t been an increase in funding speaks to the lack of political will.

What?

Vending machines in the USA are common, but they are typically attached to an existing business. For instance, a Walmart or gas station will commonly host several machines in its entrance area.

Yeah. There are vending machines that will cook you a pizza. It just turns out there isn’t that high a demand for vending machine pizza.

A return on investment of 0.5 to 2.5 years is pretty good for companies. You also have to factor the costs of maintaining a space for a human equivalent. Paying a wage doesn’t cover all labor costs.

There may be cases where the price of labor is lower than the price of a specific machine, but the Industrial Revolution was built on replacing labor with capital.

It isn’t evenly spread out, but it is something increasingly happening to more and more jobs.

and it’s quite a bit more than minimum pay for humans

Is it? I can buy a vending machine for less than $8000. Converting that cost to minimum wage, that is ~28 full time weeks worth of labor to act as a mechanism to sell items. There are probably a lot of times when the cost in capital is less than the cost in labor.

The internal MPA regulations have gotten very lax over time. My understanding is that there isn’t a time limit between the opening scene and the opening credits.

Except robots don’t need to take as many breaks nor do you have to pay them minimum wage.

RealCalc

It’s a really nice calculator.

Within the Roman Empire, Christianity ended up succeeding as the apocalypse cult within the empire, with Rome eventually foresaking the old gods for Jesus.

As Roman retreated, Rome’s church survived and became a unifying force in Europe. While there were crusades, there were also cases of willing conversion in order for border nations to gain access to the European market and diplomacy.

Moderation is a volunteer activity that requires dealing with the public. I’m willing to give them wide leeway on how they want to moderate their own communities.

It might have a shot. It has a large auto industry already. All it needs are batteries and electric motors.

So people not voting for Harris anyway, which is why I won’t what votes she would lose.

The human population around the fall of the Roman Empire was about 200,000,000. If we are talking about complete collapse of civilization, I expect at least 90% of humanity will die. Of the remainder, most will go into subsistence farming and/or armies to raid nearby areas. Given the wealth of manufactured goods currently out there, I expect that most industry would be scavenger focused, causing a loss of technology.

I don’t really want to live in that world.

Kamala changing her stance to against fracking will help get votes

And I’m asking how. What person voting for President is making being against fracking the reason for their vote? Who is the single issue voter against fracking?

Yeah, 58% of Pennsylvania voters don’t like fracking, but who is going to change their vote because of this shift, either to Trump or to third party?

Who would be anti fracking but otherwise vote for Donald Trump?
