I got my dad an Anker Bluetooth speaker a year or so ago that was subject to a recall due to the rechargeable battery inside presenting a fire hazard.
Fortunately, by way of the serial number, his was not one of the effected units, but I had the same question you did when I saw this article.
I always assumed they were just another way for people to broadcast mundane factoids about themselves to total strangers that don’t care. Like an early form of social media, if you will.
Like I bet if alcohol was something you had to snort…
This reminded me of this ancient internet video where a few guys (allegedly) “inhale” alcohol by adding dry ice and breathing in the vapors. Doesn’t look to be very effective, but if it was, I’d at least try it.
The job AI deserves, to be sure.
One could not hope for a more pure visualization of “letting go.” We extoll its virtue, but it can be so hard to do. No matter what, there will always be something that we hold on to, until our final breath.
You gave your friend a great gift that day. I know it was hard, but you should be proud of the compassionate person that you are.
It was Friday, March 14th, 2003. Pi Day.
I played guitar in a shitty band in highschool and the administration let us play an impromptu show in the commons during the last period of the day, as long as we played an original song for Pi Day.

So braindead and stereotypical are these comments that you might think they are themselves AI generated. But, picking a few at random, I checked out their profiles and they seem genuine. … They did also all seem to be active churchgoers but that must be some kind of coincidence…
Shots fired.
There’s that word again. Why are things so heavy in the future? Is there a problem with the Earth’s gravitational pull?
Also an unexpectedly fun trip. “Weird and great” is pretty accurate for the channel!
that weird chick and she’s great.
Jenny Nicholson, for anyone interested. There’s an equally long one about a failed permanent Renaissance Faire that’s a real trip, too. Almost all of them are a fun diversion, really.

Antenna-Pod does it this way as well.
I dunno, sounds pretty statimated to me.
Also, Happy New Year! Have fun and be safe.
Only one of my three computers was having this problem, but this solution worked for me as well. Thanks for sharing it here!
The phrase “hurt people hurt people” immediately comes to mind, but I still have no idea what Streeter’s story was, even after reading way more than I would have liked to. But I think yours is an important question for people to be asking, if they ever hope to prevent abuse (as much as could ever be prevented, I guess).
It’s fine (if not mandatory) for men to love God and His only begotted Son but also iT’s AdAm & EvE nOt AdAm & StEvE!!
