bleistift2 OP ,

Thank you very much for your kind words, my dear sir.

Where do these random medieval drawings come from? And who finds them?

Star Trek: Day of Blood - Shaxs' Best Day nominated for 2024 Eisner Award ( startrek.website )

The 2024 Eisner awards for the comics industry announced the nominees a couple days ago, and the Day of Blood tie-in issue, Shaxs' Best Day by Ryan North and Derek Charm is among the nominees for Best Single Issue/One-shot....

I didn’t know there was a comic series. I guess I’ll read that since Amazon pulled their animated series off of Prime.

bleistift2 ,

In Germany you can always tell if a historic thing was good or bad by whether it started or ended in 1933.

If a child was 6 when Yu-Gi-Oh came out (1996), they’re now 28 and may have been on duty for 10 years.

bleistift2 ,

no or fewer children

So… they killed other people’s children?

bleistift2 ,

Remember, kids, that pet’s names are often used for passwords. Don’t share sensitive information.

bleistift2 ,

It takes trust to give all your password to a piece of software. With all the leaks on the news can you blame them? For people with multiple devices an offline password manager is unwieldy. And self-hosting an online password manager is beyond the capabilities of most.

bleistift2 ,

That’s the sensible thing to do. You can’t do everything. So if you’re going to fail anyway, you might as well do it lying down.

bleistift2 ,

We cannot stop collecting data about you because collecting the datum that you want to stop having your data collected failed.

I wonder if the situation in Europe is different, where such bullshit is illegal.

bleistift2 ,

I mean, why not? Why shouldn’t a new generation have an updated experience of something you people obviously liked?

If you don’t like the reboot, that’s ok. You can still enjoy the memory of the original one.

bleistift2 ,

Because children have different tastes in every generation. Would you watch a cartoon from the 1950s? No, because it’s boring by today’s standards.

The tweet: tweet (Is the preview working for you? For me, it’s not).

The game is called geoguessing and those who do this regularly are crazy good at it, taking into account the kind of trees you see, where the sun and shadows are, even the color of the dirt and the pavement.

Tom Scott did something similar and was frightened too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGqEBvlmFAQ&pp=ygUSdG9tIHNjb3R0IGZvdW5kIHVz

I didn’t find that in the Twitter UI and wondered why OP thought it was an AI. Thanks for sharing.

    I haven’t seen this one. There are people who haven’t been online 24/7 since the dawn of Netscape Navigator.

    bleistift2 ,

    Or – just a thought – you’re reasonably confident that the shit you wrote actually works.

    bleistift2 ,

    Judging by eye on the map projection OpenStreetMap uses, the direct line between Japan and Hawaii is about one quarter of the westbound straight line between Japan and Hawaii.

    bleistift2 ,

    Isn’t that also the shorter route, because you’re circling the Earth where it has less circumference?

    Also the North Atlantic Tracks are there. Might also play a role.

    If you really do want to do something, but can’t get your limbs to move, try making a list. Crossing things off that helps providing motivation.

    bleistift2 ,

    Sounds like a win to me. If making the list gives you motivation, this might help overcome the initial inertia.

    bleistift2 ,

    How fucking big are American canisters? In Germany the regular size is 5l, [Edit: just shy of a bit more than] one gallon.

    bleistift2 ,

    Imagine getting Diesel in Germany. “Sorry, that was actually 15 liters of regular gas. ¯_(ツ)_/¯”

    Edit: Ok, it’s not as bad as I imagined, since this picture seems to be about E15/E10, not diesel/regular.

    bleistift2 ,

    Well, I just typed “1 gallon in liters” into google and took the first number, because I couldn’t be bothered to deal with your system of measurement more than necessary. My point stands regardless of the exact volume of one gallon.

    OF COURSE THERE IS MORE THAN ONE DEFINITION OF GALLON

    If you’d like to pay via PayPal, contact our sales team.

    For fuck’s sake, either you accept PayPal or you don’t. What kind of shady behind-the-curtains bullshit are you trying to pull?

    bleistift2 ,

    it would just offer me a list of possible combinations of name/surnames.

    The password manager suggests the details you saved for amazon, usually at sign-in. It doesn’t just show you a list of everything you ever typed into a form field.

    bleistift2 ,

    This isn’t replacing a euphemism with another one. Dumb has a completely different meaning that’s not even close to ‘cannot speak’, while ‘mute’ conveys exactly that.

    bleistift2 ,

    maximising profit is not why we grant them copyright

    That’s the only reason copyright exists. Because society decided that if you’re the one to put work into developing something, you should be the one reaping the profits, at least for some time.

    bleistift2 ,

    The sad thing is, there are people who wholeheartedly agree with that reasoning…

    bleistift2 ,

    Not to put the blame on the devs, but the problems might have been attenuated by defining a proper interface layer against the server.
