The coast of Oregon near Astoria, OR Hmmm…I thought I had more of these. Not sure what happened to them.

The images created by AI are almost as if a 4 year old was extremely gifted at art but had no idea what they were supposed to be drawing.

Rest in peace, Mr. Pietta

Thank you for that news.

That sounds like a cool project. Fun too.

That lady loves to cook, eat and dance. I was not hungry until I opened that link.

Does anyone recipes for Beltet Mitett powder? When I type it into DDG I get results for beet juice and beet powder. No hand load recipes. What gives? Freakin’ Otto is AI too. Little rass-n-frass’n bastage!

And what tires were on that Toyota in those icy snowy conditions. I believe tires and the knowledge of how to drive in snow and ice conditions play as big a part as the vehicle drive train. Perhaps bigger, in some cases. Without the right tires, even the best drive train is useless in muddy, snowy or icy conditions.

It depends on the neighbor. If I like them, yes. If I don’t, no.

How’d you like those images? Pretty weird. I went down to the menu at the bottom and clicked on “Archives November 2024”. There are two articles. Both have senseless images of guys that look like blacksmiths working at benches with lots of steel rods or something. If you look close the hands look weird. https://reloadingstocks.com/2024/11/

It reads just like these blogs attributed to a writer but are obviously written by ignorant people or AI. Many of the claim to be some sort of Amazon Partner, if you scroll to the bottom. There is one site called The Gun Zone that has advice for shooters that is incorrect and could even be dangerous in some cases. I reported it to DDG and for a while the site didn’t show up in their searches, but it is back now. I am not sure if these AI sites are malicious or if it’s practice for the AI. All I know is I am very cautious about sites I haven’t heard of before. I used to think many of these weird Amazon blogs were Chinese people practicing their English. Now I think they’re AI and they have been doing it for a long time. Several years, at least. I really don’t have any proof. It’s all speculation on my part.

Well, if you need to twist one up you need some quality rolling papers and…What? Candles?…Uh, never mind. Gotta go!

It used to be FWD meant four wheel drive. Now it means Front Wheel Drive. Now the term for four wheel drive is 4WD.

Probably, but today I wouldn’t be up there. A man has got to know his limitations.

There is a difference in All Wheel Drive and Four Wheel Drive (AWD & FWD) I was going to explain it but decided to use someone else. In a nut shell - from Car Max: All-wheel drive (AWD) automatically distributes power to all four wheels for better traction on various surfaces, making it ideal for everyday driving and light off-roading. In contrast, four-wheel drive (4WD) is designed for more rugged conditions, providing power to all wheels simultaneously and is typically found in trucks and larger SUVs for off-road use. In my experience front wheel drive is much better in snow than rear wheel drive in a two wheel drive vehicle for people that aren’t used to actually driving in snow. Also, many people I have encountered all over the U.S. think having All or 4 wheel drive means they can drive like they’re in ideal conditions.

Loved the change of emotions from start to finish. When I was a kid my brother and I were best friends and daredevils. We would do lots of crazy stuff with our friends. Usually our friends came up with the ideas and my brother and I would be the first to try them. I am pretty sure that in the same situation as that little girl I would have probably sounded pretty much the same, though I am not so sure I would have followed through.
