…riiiiight.
- Comment on Hmmmm! 2 weeks ago:
I’d say that none of it is in the now, because it all involves distance and time. All those “nows” are different yes but the “now” at the tip of my nose is different than the “now” inside my eye, is different than the “now” in different parts of my brain. And all of those are different than the “now” that I believe myself to be experiencing. And all of these things are in the past.
- Comment on Hmmmm! 2 weeks ago:
Our conceptual understanding of what “the present” means does not align with the facts.
The problem with redefining “the present” to mean “our perceived present” is that any reaction we take is already too late. The stuff we experience as “now” is done and gone. Just like if the sun suddenly went out, we would not notice it for 8 minutes or so, but there would be no possible reaction to it to try to “fix” or otherwise change it. It would have already happened.

False. All our sensory input is slightly delayed, and it takes time for our brain to process it anyway. So the past is the only thing that exists and we are all, always living in it.

It’s called copilot now.

That’s just providing better service than piracy, not any change in what is legal. Physical media is unrelated (or barely related)
- Comment on "You'll own nothing and you'll be happy" 4 weeks ago:
Legally this option died 2 decades ago thanks to steam. So I just wondered why the big consoles still allow this.
Huh? I don’t think Steam wrote any laws about this, or even lobbied for them.

It’s been edited, bud.

That’s all sms though, not 2fa in general.
All valid points and good information within that scope.
- Comment on This is why we have two-factor authentication. 4 weeks ago:
Okay that makes sense. Yes sms is insecure, not 2fa.

Aye.

Also good luck with firmware updates, since most of them are extremely inconvenient to install with Linux, and also few vendors actually update their firmware any more than they need to.

But they made a great, impactful movie!

You think you’re hot, like quoting some quick maths proves you’re not an AI? ;-)

You can use it anytime you want.
- Comment on Trump champions bid to nix clock changes by adopting permanent daylight saving time 2 months ago:
My opinion is that clock noon should be as close to solar noon as possible.
Either that or drop the whole idea of time zones too.
- Comment on Trump champions bid to nix clock changes by adopting permanent daylight saving time 2 months ago:
What a fucking stupid idea.
- Comment on I was a husky boy and look how I turned out 2 months ago:
early 70s.
So…available in the ’70s like OP said.
- Comment on Steam refund 2 months ago:
This might fall under “less work than a demo” but far too many games that do have a demo, the devs don’t bother keeping it up to date.

Here ya go. Not so much funny as sad.
- Comment on So many choices. Think I'll start with Rodent's Revenge 3 months ago:
Yeah but these were self-contained and small enough to fit on a floppy disk. You definitely could have just copied them.
- Comment on Why are there different region codes for discs? (DVD & Blu Ray) 3 months ago:
Yeah but the main reason for all those copyright law differences comes down to “greed”

A “modern” design, the current trend of shitty suburban layout that seems to be the alternative to the grid layout complained about.

But phone selfies mirror the image already so it should be forward again. So it’s correct I guess?

But it’s only a mirror in one of those two ways.
