certainly machines properly name things that brains haven't been involved in naming (depending on what degree we're willing to allow that to have been independent). onomatopeia is a naming-interpretation or translation exercise, not the same as the meow truly naming itself.

the thing that most grinds my gears is that there are settings that appear in both control panels and settings, appear to be changeable in both, but only one or the other actually changes anything.

for those of us wondering why a mayoral campaign finance is being investigated by the fbi, upshot is they’re investigating possible ties to international interests

Does anyone have a recommendation for home gamer bike repair stands? I’d like to find an inexpensive one that stows away easily or otherwise doesnt take too much space. Since I only need it maybe once or twice a year I can do without the hard core bike shop level of durability. For my needs it just needs to hold the bike off the floor so I can do derailer adjustments.
