They probably continue to fuck them until they are too rotten.

Oh, you meant the other kind of zoo. My bad.

I think email is basically a joke these days. It’s 99.9% spam. Almost everything I actually want in there are automated account confirmations, which don’t have to even come via email. Even in the few professional situations I’ve had a work email, it was almost never used.

Like, I feel the same way about email now that we all felt about snail mail with the invention of email.

He just loves the little butt-headed dudes with big ears. Wishes he could be just like them.

I just use my pillow or maybe a folded towel if I have to get on my knees for an extended period.

You can only serve 2 terms. Period. Doesn’t matter if there is a gap between the terms. He served one. This is his last time, unless he does exactly what he plans to and eliminates elections to become SUPREME OVERLORD OF AMERICA.

Arc? Or Ark?

I got chicken tendies.

The best way to get rid of a fear is to face it.

Try cooking something simple like pancakes. Really, just following the directions of a recipe should make cooking anything pretty simple, if not time consuming the more complicated it gets. Even the most lavish of foods aren’t exactly difficult. They just take patience and time.

I think it depends on the method for the loop, and how time itself plays into the plot.

Like, I wouldn’t say Groundhog’s Day is a time travel story. But Deathloop (the game) is a time travel story. The main reason for this is that Deathloop explicitly tells you that the loop is caused by a time machine device, where as Groundhog’s Day could be interpreted as Bill Murray having died and is now in Hell or Limbo.

The way you escape the loop in Deathloop is to get all the looping people to die and then destroy the machine. In Murray’s situation in Groundhog’s Day, the solution is to… Be a better person?

I was saying “twenty oh x” in 2001. Twenty oh one. Twenty oh two. And so on. I only ever said “two thousand” for 2000. Because “twenty oh oh” sounds dumb.

The effort and money and energy needed to keep digital things archived forever seems pretty massive… What if we just took the source code for them and wrote them down on something less likely to degrade over time? 🤔

Stop taking physical data and making it digital; take digital data and make it physical again!

Shit, they could just get a better fucking FAX machine that can put new incoming faxes into a queue. The last fax machine I used (like well over a decade ago) could at least do that.

I read somewhere it’s actually more common for a hired killer to turn the person who hired them into the police than for them to actually do the job.

In that same article, it said the average payment for a contract killer is less than $5000. So maybe if you’re gonna hire a contract killer, you should not cheap out and get the one that requires a million dollars, with payment only on the death of the victim.

So this made me wonder: How do nuclear plants produce the heat? Like, I know they’re using nuclear materials to boil water and generate steam to turn turbines, but how is that accomplished? Are the fuel rods just naturally hot (in terms of thermals not just the radiation) or are they running current through them to make them hot enough to boil water? I always assumed the former, but maybe I’ve been wrong this whole time.

More fillers, less milk, less actual sugar, and no egg.

A trick I learned how to find better quality ice cream is to compare the weights on same liquid ounce packages. The one that weighs more will be the one with more real food ingredients and less artificial shit like fillers, emulsifiers, flavors and other additives.

Price can also be an indicator; cheap ice cream is almost always crappy ice cream.

Because they have enough people that they can just start climbing each other to get there? 🤔

Most of the time (especially in ads) they’re not whitening; they’re wearing veneers.

What about things that only need to be done client side, like wallhacks?

On paper, yeah. We haven’t found any, though. At least, not that I’ve heard. But black holes were the same deal when I was a kid. Then we found one.

We’re looking at the wreckage.

If you knew what survivorship bias was, and the example usually given for where it came from, you might see the irony in what you just said.
