- Comment on Cetaceans 1 week ago:
The current page contains two [cetacean needed] blocks, one of which is Tamanend’s bottlenose dolphin. The other is Deraniyagala’s beaked whale.
However, neither of those is the one in the picture, which shows the cetacean in question living in the coastal waters of South America. I believe this is Burmeister’s porpoise, which now has a fairly disappointing image attached.

I switched pharmacies and holy shit do the different Adderall generics taste different. I’m stuck now with the Meijer pharmacy because I can’t go back to the bitter vomit-inducing crap I was getting at Rite Aid.

Somewhat relevant to your example, recipes should have numbers in digits too. (But then again recipes are basically an engineering text.)
- Comment on The official Nintendo Museum appears to be emulating SNES games on a Windows PC, which is slightly embarrassing 2 months ago:
You’re making my point for me though. Each of the other things you’ve suggested is more work than requires more expertise. Popping up an emulator on an existing box and dumping a ROM in there is something an intern can do.
All of these other things can be done, but they’re not as quick and simple, and that’s why we’re seeing this in the first case - Nintendo went with a quick and simple solution, and someone found a bug (it still plays Windows noises).

I take it you’ve never ported an application to a different platform running on a different hardware architecture before.

This looks a whole lot like it’s probably some random emulator they grabbed and full screened?
- Comment on The official Nintendo Museum appears to be emulating SNES games on a Windows PC, which is slightly embarrassing 2 months ago:
Making an FPGA for all of this is far more work than pulling an open source emulator and sticking it on a machine…
- Comment on The official Nintendo Museum appears to be emulating SNES games on a Windows PC, which is slightly embarrassing 2 months ago:
An FPGA seems like a lot of effort, but an SNES emulator running on a Raspberry Pi seems like it may have been a better option IMO.
- Comment on Last channel rule 2 months ago:
Not if Nickelodeon is right next to Cartoon Network. You hit “last” and then change the channel. That also gives you cover for why you’re holding the remote and changing channels.
