I just wanted to hear what everyone's thoughts are on Apple's new product line coming out in 2024. Will this be the new iPad/iPhone? While the price is certainly prohibitive, from what I can tell from the keynote and promo, it really does seem like the real deal; a different way of interacting 'in space.' I think this is the step in the right direction for AR/VR to be more mainstream.

I'd be into a good mobile app where you take care of a tamagotchi pet too, tbh

I would argue that medicine is science, but the access to said medicine is politics. Even if you live near a tertiary or quaternary care center, many of these 'wonder' drugs are barred from use by most people due to insurance issues. The fact of the matter is that in the US, not only is where you live a contributor to a lack of access to care (which is also the case in many countries), but how much you make is a major factor as well. While a complete overhaul of the healthcare system may not be realistic, we are definitely not going in the right direction.

I'm very interested to learn what combination of cells they used to hit certain flavors and how they developed the right network of cells to make the right texture. Is there a 'grain'? Will there be dark meat and white meat? So many questions! Can't wait to see if they end up making pulled pork down the road, haha.

I enjoy ginger beer and will try to cut it into random other alcoholic beverages like red wine.

 

I was feeling in a bluegrass mood recently. This is a nice song with an intro that gives a feeling of hollowness that is filled by a pretty sweet riff and soulful lyrics.
