I feel I can def pretty accurately tell whether somebody works a tech or some business/finance/marketing/HR job just by the way they speak. Like I talk to them outside of a work context, I make the guess, and then they later reveal what they do and I'm usually right if it's one of those 2 categories

With Pixel’s new “Add Me” feature, you can get the whole group in your photos. Merge 2 photos with the power of AI and augmented reality. Available on Pixel 9 devices.
So that if there's a big event like a Taylor Swift concert you couldn't go to and they detected you're most likely a fan, they'll gen AI a photo of you at the concert
If you missed a Christmas gathering with your family, they'll gen AI one for you
If like Japan but haven't been there yet, they gen AI a whole vacation album of you there
They're literally trying to embed fabricated events into your life and brain lmao
People are largely very excited for this idea. All the apps between different companies constantly copy each other to achieve feature parity, there's no escape. You will live a life of luxury and excitement whether you want to or not
I have 450 sq ft that's on the ground floor. Like almost 0 elevation at all from street level. 100 year old building. I live a 10 minutes walk away from the Pacific Coast, SF climate
Every time I wake up and go to the bathroom, I see 2-5 insects in it. 1-2 are cockroaches, rest are some other small thing. Flies maybe? Always see some cockroach droppings on sink counter that I have to spray and wipe down
Every time I leave a room dark for a few hours and turn on the lights, I always see 1-3 insects
During the day with lights on, I notice 1-4 insects per hour in various places excluding tiny fruit flies. Those I probably see like 5 times a day
Problem has been getting worse since I've moved in but this is also the first summer I've lived through in this place
And if I need pest control, how much work is it to have them come in? Should I just move apartments if I need them?

A case was opened last month to investigate child pornography, drug sales, fraud and other criminal activities on the platform. The app’s founder, Pavel Durov, was detained over the weekend near Paris.
