And you can see them again at your next traffic stop.
- Comment on Anon gets a job 1 week ago:
It’s .ml that can’t stand a little bad language. I doubt they are scanning images though.

Hey, that’s not nice, they just asked a question.

- Comment on Anon comes up with filenames 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, I agree, usually it does
- Comment on Anon comes up with filenames 2 weeks ago:
No idea, best I got is that maybe the default name is always the same from whatever source they are using, so they would get the pick a new name dialog anyway.
- Comment on Anon comes up with filenames 2 weeks ago:
Yup, very much so.
- Comment on Anon comes up with filenames 2 weeks ago:
My guess is they are images and the thumbnail is more important as an identifier than the name would be.
- Comment on Anon comes up with filenames 2 weeks ago:
There’s also the birthday paradox to consider - each new file increases the number of potential matches for all files that follow, and also is a potential match for all files that precede it. The total number of ways to match is something close to the square of the number of files.
- Comment on Skew-T Log-P (xkcd) 2 weeks ago:
I mean the actual text that was LLM generated was deleted. The header had been left mentioning it as a joke. Note the discussion section.
- Comment on Skew-T Log-P (xkcd) 2 weeks ago:
The LLM answer was deleted even before I posted the link. As mentioned the header is always a joke, and in this case it’s referencing that, but over the next few days I expect that link to become useful.

Posting this link so I can tap on it.
- Comment on what was the last game you played in 2024? 2 weeks ago:
Genshin Impact just released a new version that for most of the world became playable on Jan 1, but where I live it started several hours before the end of Dec 31.
So that.

- Comment on Diamond market 4 weeks ago:
For April Fools, Cards Against Humanity was literally selling diamond studded potatoes for $69.99 (USD) - and claimed a $1000 value, which I’m sure they would be at retail prices.
The FAQ said they had thousands of them, but I didn’t get there in time.
- Comment on Anon's sad story 4 weeks ago:
I have a similar story of woe.
Before they got rid of them, I bought a churro and was walking to the parking lot when I tilted that stupid sleeve (it’s not a bag) the wrong way and the churro slipped out and landed on that nasty pavement. A few months later my mom died.

Racy!
But seriously, seeing the older people made me realize that those guys wouldn’t have even had cars all over when they were growing up.
From Wikipedia:
“The modern car—a practical, marketable automobile for everyday use—was invented in 1886, when the German inventor Carl Benz patented his Benz Patent-Motorwagen. Commercial cars became widely available during the 20th century. The 1901 Oldsmobile Curved Dash and the 1908 Ford Model T, both American cars, are widely considered the first mass-produced and mass-affordable cars, respectively.”
(First gasoline car at all was 1808 though)
So this was at most around 21 years after the Model T. For anyone much older than that, cars would have been rare at best when they were young.

- Comment on Itch.io back online 1 month ago:
From what I read, the policy of removing domains when the county stops existing was directly based on what happened with .su so that never happens again.
- Comment on Itch.io back online 1 month ago:
Yeah, I didn’t get a good wording there. I just mean is it still up in the air?
- Comment on Itch.io back online 1 month ago:
That reminds me… Is the entire .io domain still planning to end or did that get resolved?
- Comment on Should we create a new political party in the US, specifically for shitting on the rich? 1 month ago:
Those don’t eliminate the spoiler effect, but it does end up looking different. (Maybe has a different name in this form?)
My blue state has a blanket primary, and this last election I saw that demonstrated:
One race had two Republicans and like half a dozen Democrats and another half a dozen in other parties. The Republican vote of course was split between the two candidates. The Democrat vote was split like a hydra and we very nearly had (few hundred votes away) the two Republicans go to the general!
Fortunately, the top Dem barely squeaked into second place, and then easily won the general, but it was mighty close.

Then do STAR, or approval. Those are simple. And I think even more likely to allow 3rd parties.
Pretty much anything is better than FPTP.
- Comment on explosions 1 month ago:
Generally explosions do in fact involve an object suddenly increasing in volume (with corresponding decrease in density)
Said objects typically become partially gaseous, but if the rest of it is porous then it’s not unusual at all for that to increase in volume also.
Easy example: popcorn.

Wind turbines also.
But some solar does focus it on a tower to make steam to drive a turbine.
