The entire style is the same genetic crap that ChatGPT and others pour out. The significant detail and cutesiness is always indicative for low-stakes events, because it’s rare for a human to put in that much effort for something this simple.

Yep. Had to view in landscape orientation and zoom in to crop out those elements. Bonus was that moved the patterns further apart, making it easier to lock on (and fire photon torpedoes).

At least it’s cellulose rather than the mineral and plastic dusts from working with conventional building materials. Human bodies have pretty much zero ability to break down the latter.

As weird as it sounds, I assumed there was some logic to this, and there was at least one case where someone had been the victim of sexual abuse and was forced to engage in bestiality. Then someone with half a brain realised that such a victim had no repulsive proclivities, so shouldn’t be excluded as a candidate on that basis.

The mere mention of the topic encourages irrational discourse.

He’s only a grade 11 bureaucrat.

Can you burn a Luigi board?

He’s looking at you like that because he has a PhD, and he just heard you say that unnecessary apostrophe.

In the worst case where all ice melts and sea level is +70m higher, only a few pockets of coastal areas of NZ are inundated. Plenty of affected population in those places, but most land is untouched and far away from intolerable equatorial heat. That’s why they choose NZ.

Check out this site and set level to max. There are other interactive sites but many show levels higher than Earth could ever have, because we don’t have that much water.

It’s called “the clit”.

Though people will claim that, creating very long, consistent, and physically-accurate videos is beyond the capability or budget constraints of publicly available models, for now.

Could probably have measured its resistance, then put a plain resistor in its place.

udm=web now. Also, your all(?) examples get the %s mangled by URL format correction, so should be:

but change the %25s to %s.

And you can use its image creation tool to write a Windows installer .iso to a thumbdrive, for others who absolutely have to have it!

Fucked if I can work out why downloading the Windows .iso in Linux and writing it to USB has not once resulted in a bootable medium for me, despite literally every non-MS .iso working perfectly with the same tools.

I’m currently using this, and find it very helpful. They’re available as podcasts. Make sure you’re playing it on something that you can easily and frequently pause & restart, and jump back a few seconds. AntennaPod is great.

Rule 3 of that community is ‘no AI’.

Using a widely-available phone with good performance, decent quality, and long term security support, meant that more people could access it. I still can’t buy a Fairphone without going through an overseas middleman, then hoping I have no warranty issues, because they don’t sell to Australia. If something goes wrong with my Pixel, the shop I bought it from is minutes away.

My favourite recipe. (context is outbreak of covid in Australia.)

I made the mistake of creating a Windows VM and believing their minimum required disk space figure of 64GB. It won’t upgrade. Asks to attach an external USB drive because it lacks enough space. It hasn’t anything added to it, only some bloatware removed. Attempting to upgrade takes hours, fails (despite attaching the extra storage), then restarts the entire download and install process over again. I can only assume it’s incapable of caching and verifying downloaded content. There’s no offline installer option, like we used to have with service packs. The whole thing is slow as molasses yet it doesn’t max out the 8(!) CPUs allocated to it. The host has plenty of spare capacity. It’s a steaming pile of shit.

Linux guests run fine.
