  The original post has video of this kid as well, and AI slop isn’t that good at faking moving hair yet. From a quick browse of that guy’s page he does over-process and filter the shit out of his stills making them look like slop, but these do appear to be real bad hair days.

  I’m still playing the original Super Mario Kart on my UNAPPROVED HARDWARE REDACTED and doing fine.

  Melted plastic, plastic fumes, and microplastic particles already aren’t great for you, and 3D-printing introduces a bunch of ways for them to be introduced directly into your body.

  I worked in the 3D-printing industry for a long time, and I’m confident whoever does my autopsy is going to get a clown-style poof of confetti.

  Breathing through 3D-printed plastic would be bad enough for you without the cigarettes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who had it worse?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  From a real-world perspective as a viewer, I think Q was created and written as a foil for Picard, the actors had awesome chemistry, and their TNG stories generally worked really well. On the other hand, as much as I really love Voyager, Q seemed awkwardly shoehorned into it for the sake of doing Q stuff and it really shows. The chemistry with the characters and actors is lacking, the fundamentals of the stories feel way off, and it all just doesn’t work as well.

  While I generally rank TNG’s Q episodes near the top of that series, I tend to put VOY’s Q episodes near the bottom.

  Though this thing is a hilarious idea, obligatory reminder that 3D-printed plastic is not food-safe and you shouldn’t ever be using it for things that go in or near your mouth.

  The printed plastic itself is not good for you, the surfaces are very porous bacteria farms which are literally impossible to clean thoroughly. The plastic filament, which is still pretty notoriously unregulated in terms of chemical composition, picks up traces of various other plastics, metals, lubricants, and grime from the 3D printer’s filament path, extruder, and nozzle which end up in the printed product. This particular Shrek pooper would be forever leaching microplastics and worse into your toothpaste, and I hope the photographer just set it up for the pic and wasn’t actually using it as pictured.

  Una mentions a “couple of litres” of blood. Did she mean pints, and the writers did a find/replace to make it metric and more futurey? Because “a couple of litres” is a lot.

  This is months after the previous episode. I think the implication was that Una had been steadily donating blood so they can study it and/or have a stockpile for emergencies. It makes sense as long as they avoid the “hey everyone, magic blood is the cure for death” crap from the second JJ movie.

  They also leaned pretty hard into it when I worked against them for many years as a phone phreak. 😆

  I had to sit in an empty seat between two strangers on a New York City E train. It went fine because I remembered to take my backpack off beforehand and put it in my lap.

  As far as I could find, the origin of this quote seems to be David Sutcliffe who posted it to Old Twitter on April 8, 2020.

  Screenshot of a tweet by user SutcliffeDavid on April 8, 2020 which reads, “Remember when everyone knew pro wrestling was fake and they finally admitted it and the fans didn’t care and continued to watch anyway? We’re almost there with politics and the media.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you still remember?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Imaginary. I’ve never taken a driver’s test or had a driver’s license.

  I am, however, fully instrument-rated on my local urban mass transit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why did AT&T think "Eye of Sauron" was the way to go?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  For those unfamiliar with AT&T, their logo has basically been the Death Star since the 1980s. It makes sense they’re diversifying into other evil movie monoliths.

  Would it be better to drag it out past the point where it runs out of steam, audiences stop paying attention, and it falls so hard nobody does anything else with the Star Trek brand for a decade or two?
