There's actually a lot of work going into documenting and replacing lead service lines in the US. EPA required every state to make sure every waterworks submitted an inventory by last October, with grant money through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to pay for it.

I grew up just out of town but moved away in 2017. But I knew I had to comment seeing the lift bridge in the background!

Apply liberally. Bought a video game and expected a feature not common in the genre or the developer's history? Watched a movie but had no idea what the director's style is? Bought a smartphone and wanted features that brand has never had (or maybe the industry has moved away from)? Bought motion cameras but didn't realize you couldn't just watch the clips they record unless you buy their stupid cloud service...

That last one is me 😮‍💨

The new contract ensures "safety guardrails" around AI, which includes "consent and disclosure requirements for AI digital replica use and the ability for performers to suspend consent for the generation of new material during a strike".

Great to see. Now we'll see if this actually ends all of the voice actor strikes in the industry. I know there were a bunch that started due to this strike but actually hinge on the company's stance on allowing non-union members to remain non-union.

The formatting of the meme lends itself to an interpretation that the listener is somehow being conned.

She recounts fending off robbers and highwaymen by reciting songs or poems in her native language, French. Together with her unfamiliar European looks, that convinced the often very superstitious Tibetan robbers that she was a witch and to better not mess with her. In case that didn't work she was carrying a gun.

Since this video came out, the series has gotten a new mainline title. Or, do you think it's a spinoff? Apparently about 4% of players think so. You can take this survey to let your opinion be known: https://forms.gle/EVWf8pDAYxYcEa2e9 (Be warned, this will take about 30 minutes)
