On delivery, not when they’re out in the field. Where would they even put a whole slaughtered cow? Especially with all the salt they’d need in pre-refrigerated times. Even with a wagon, that’s not an efficient way to bring food with you.

Are you under the impression that cowboys eat the herd they’re driving? No, those are for other people.
Cowboys were quite literally in the middle of nowhere with nothing but beans. What’s the British excuse? “Oh, my great grandmother cooked this in the blitz, and we forgot rationing ended decades ago”.
Let me guess, you also think mushrooms are addictive.
Goth girls grow up so fast these days.
My wife did a quilt like this. As a note for anyone else trying something like it, be sure to leave a generous border. It doesn’t always scan reliably without a good border.
This is what I expect to happen when AI gives solutions to climate change. Which is what Sam Altman bangs on about in interviews to justify all the power AI models are taking up.
The solutions are all sitting right there. What people actually want is solutions that cost about three fity and don’t require any lifestyle changes. ChatGPT will just tell us about all the solutions sitting there, but that’s not the answer people like Altman want.
There’s been some research into space-based solar power by the DoD for that exact reason. It was a while ago, but launch costs have come down substantially and the idea is possibly viable at this point. And even back then, IIRC it was projected to be less than we spent air conditioning the desert in Iraq.
Sony will try to drag this thing out at least one more generation. If that goes like this one–and it has room to actually go worse–then Sony will have to make some hard decisions.
The Caprica spinoff, you mean? It was really slow for most of the season, suddenly picked up at the end and got really good, and then it was canceled.
Case in point: another Battlestar Galactica reboot is apparently in the works.
I don’t think we’d be at Star Trek levels, but I do think it’s OK if we went slower. The breakneck pace of development since the Industrial Revolution hasn’t been done in a way that’s healthy for the planet or for people.
As things are, we might have a Mars colony by the end of the century, but with a ruined Earth behind it. If we pushed that Mars colony out another century and focused on improving the planet we have, that would be OK. These goals aren’t necessarily mutually exclusive–a Mars colony would likely take a tiny fraction of Earth’s combined economic output over the next 80 years–but there’s a lot of things we would do to make things more sustainable that will be more expensive in terms of label price. We aren’t fully incorporating the true cost of things on the current label price, so of course those will go up when they properly reflect reality.
Crop rotation isn’t that, though. It’s a good idea for efficient use of agricultural land over the long term.
IIRC, the original reason was to avoid people making custom parsing directives using comments. Then people did shit like "foo": "[!-- number=5 --]"
instead.
CMV: Mono mix of Jefferson Airplane’s “White Rabbit” is better.
I pirate because it’s too much hassle otherwise.
Some hackers DoS the code. This guy DoS’s the corporate process.
Nobody going to admit to being the pigeon? Because that’s me.
That works better on the ground than sea or air. No matter how many MIG-29s you have, an F-22’s only problem will be having enough missiles to put into them.
Dumb artillery or smart ones?
7/10. Too many multisyllabic words to be a Trump post.
