Yeah, but didn’t Kurt Russell and James Spader nuke the ship?

So, Kevin Conroy’s ghost is going to haunt Putin?

It’s a link to the website’s front page, not the offending images.

How do you sacrifice 16/25ths of a person?

In my family it was variations of “Hello, Joe’s whatever. Insert rhyme here.”

One of my favorites was “Joe’s mortuary, you stab 'em we slab 'em.”

harmsy ,

True, and this time “The House” wasn’t the casino.

Base 16 is typically represented with letters being used as the extra numerals, so it would end up being F+1. Problem solved.

harmsy ,

There are still 20 more letters that can be used as stand-ins. Things will get interesting if you try to go past Base 36, though.

Or use ancient scripts like Phoenician or Glagolitic.

The transition and car crash stuff is pretty much all I know about Jenner. I never heard the name before that, and I never paid much attention after, either.

Last year I bought a packet of sugar pumpkin seeds just because I thought the flowers looked nice the previous time I’d tried (and failed) to grow pumpkins. Got plenty of pumpkins out of it, saved some of the seeds, and started buying butternut squash when the pumpkins ran out. Saved the seeds from those, too, and now I’ve got seedlings of both popping up. I’m gonna have so much pie!

My opinion on trans athletes is that I lack the qualifications to have an opinion. What happens to the human body during transition should be pretty well-documented by now, though. I’m sure if there’s any real problem, the doctors who work in gender-affirming care would be pretty vocal about it.

Bro if everyone moves to the jobs that pay enough to live decently, very important jobs will not get done. Our society needs manual laborers to keep everything from falling apart.

Actually worse than square one, because in this scenario, nobody’s picking up the trash.

I second the idea that audio is a nightmare in Android. I have the AYN Odin, and I’m always muting it by accident because the lowest volume setting is still a bit louder than I want. 0-15 is nowhere near enough granularity, but the Android devs can’t seem to comprehend the idea.

10 points in a particular print matching

You can run a better match test than that on GIMP just by using the difference blend mode and some rotation. It’s absurd that this is what they rely on instead.

some of them are devilishly hard to master.

The Magmoor Bomb Jump energy tank in the original version of Metroid Prime wants to say hello.

If I’m remembering correctly, fluoridation and other public health measures were put in place because too many guys were physically unfit for military service.

I always wondered why a subreddit like that was allowed to exist in the first place. I guess I have my answer now.

What flavor is that boot you’re licking? Must be pretty tasty.

Accidental DisplayPort guy checking in. I didn’t even know it was a thing until I bought my graphics card. It seems like I dummied my way into some good tech.

All these people are complaining about how hard it is to open a jar, and I’m sitting here scratching my head because the only times I’ve ever struggled with jars was after someone closed them too tightly. Just don’t use a death-grip when you’re closing your jars and you’ll be fine unless you’re elderly or something.

harmsy ,

I’m well aware. I’ve never had any trouble opening a factory-sealed jar.

harmsy ,

When my mother was still around, any time I tried to open a jar after she’d gotten to it, I would destroy my hands and still not be able to get it open. I could wreck tendons, give myself blisters, try all the tricks mentioned in this thread, and those lids wouldn’t budge. It was like she found a way to weld metal to glass with her bare hands. By comparison, opening the factory seal was no effort at all.

harmsy ,

Bro it’s just a battery, some motors, a computer, an IO system, and some brakes. An amateur with money and free time could rip the guts out of a traditional car and make it fully electric by following an online tutorial.

Manjaro repos: The Arch machine gun, but it keeps jamming.

Even a junk made-up answer would be an improvement over the results I recently got after trying both Google and DDG to search up a random question that came to me. I wanted to find a list of animals with vertical pupils, and all I got were pages with headlines like “Why do some animals have vertical pupils?” that didn’t answer my question or even the question in the headline!

When a handful of colluding parties control the entire supply of something people can’t live without, that’s not a free market. It’s despotism. The parties in control can do anything they want, and anybody who tries to tell them no can be deprived of that resource and left to die.

This Website Tracked Hate Crimes in India. Then the Government Took It Offline (www.wired.com)

India, the world’s largest democracy, prepares to kick off its election season in just a matter of weeks. But activists and experts worry that the government is cracking down on platforms and internet service providers to silence critical voices, and tighten its grip on the information ecosystem....

So, BJP are basically India’s equivalent of America’s Republican Party. Am I understanding this correctly?

harmsy ,

Cosmic ray zaps your silicon just right to flip a bit. If you’ve heard of the Tick Tock Clock upwarp in Mario 64, most people suspect that’s what happened.

harmsy ,

An AI art website I use illustrates your point perfectly with its attempt at automatic content filtering. Tons of innocent images get flagged, meanwhile problem content often gets through and has to be whacked manually. Relying on AI to catch everything, without false positives, is a recipe for disaster.

The 21-year-old campaigner

It seems like she was just twelve or something yesterday. Damn, time slips by.

Which one is Oldman and which one is Busey?

RSS was great. I’ve still got a deep grudge over the removal of Live Bookmarks from Firefox. That was how I kept up with the various webcomics I was reading at the time. All I had to do was just check on all my little orange drop-down menus to see if any new posts were up, and I was golden. Now I have to keep extra tabs open and try not to bury them under all the other tabs I open up and forget about. >_<

harmsy ,

In this case it would be self-defense. The only reason anyone thinks otherwise is because the danger posed by a billionaire money hoarder is far more abstract than what most people are accustomed to.

I bought mine a few years ago, and I’m still on the original toner cartridge.

77 Groups Worldwide Back Genocide Lawsuit Against Biden in U.S. Court (theintercept.com)

In late December, 77 groups — representing tens of thousands of lawyers, civil society leaders, and activists from six continents — filed an amicus brief in a lawsuit that Palestinian human rights organizations, residents of Gaza, and U.S. citizens with family members impacted by Israel’s ongoing assault brought against...

“defending itself”

Right. Keep telling yourself that. When someone punches you in the nose, you don’t get to kill him, his family, his friends, and everyone who ever encountered him or knows of his existence and claim you’re just defending yourself.

Israel is starving Gaza (www.btselem.org)

Israel forces aid organizations to purchase food from Egypt and prevents them from buying it in Israel, which would allow for a more efficient and rapid transfer of goods. Israel also prohibits the private sector in Gaza from purchasing food, which could significantly increase supply. Although Israel recently allowed trucks in...

Well if someone actually good ran for President I’d vote for them. Until then, I’ll have to make do and vote for the person who isn’t actively trying to make the US as nightmarish as possible.

harmsy ,

Guess I forgot to include that they also have to have a nonzero chance of getting elected.

harmsy ,

I have to make do with the cards I’ve been dealt, unfortunately. Part of me wants to flip the table, but that is only going to make things worse.

BRUH. Read the comment you replied to again. He’s saying the comparison is what people freak out about. He agrees with you.
