Amazing that people are still stupid enough to spend actual money on a software producing results like that.
Imagining that some people give them access rights to anything that is not inside a very limited sandbox is terrifying.
- Comment on pass it on 3 hours ago:
And the person doing it is a slopmachine prompt writer.
- Comment on How would the sea/ocean be affected if every human on Earth jumped in at the same time? 11 hours ago:
Nothing noticeable. Eight billion people times 100kg average mass, divided by 360 million square kilometers of ocean surface equals 2222kg/square kilometer. Or, assuming the density of a human being 1, a 2.22mm height difference. Ah, the joys of metrical calculations.
- Comment on How would the sea/ocean be affected if every human on Earth jumped in at the same time? 11 hours ago:
Probably “went in” before a missing space and an autocorrect turned it into “voting”.
- Comment on Is South Korea "Over"? Is Japan on the verge of "Collapse"? Do these narratives have real evidence or just exaggerating/fearmongering? 2 days ago:
Just the usual Russian and Chinese digital warfare.
- Comment on What does Peter Thiel mean when he says the USA is the last iteration of the Roman Empire? 2 days ago:
I seriously doubt that he knows what he is talking about when he says that.
- Comment on What would you do if you got message that says "do not look outside" 3 days ago:
Like in “Asylum”, where you got the message “A piano falls from above, crushing you to death.” whenever you looked up…
- Comment on What would you do if you got message that says "do not look outside" 3 days ago:
My first question would be: who sent this?
- Comment on Yeah, the Harvard Bellevue cemetery 3 days ago:
What a genius! Has he sent his CV to Elon Musk already?
- Comment on [deleted] 5 days ago:
If it is set for a limited time, don’t do it.
It will suppress hunger for that time, allowing fat cells to drain, and once you end taking it, those empty fat cells scream “feed me” like you never experienced before.
If you have an iron will and support, you might be able to deal with it, but most overweight people are overweight because they lack this level of food discipline in the first place.
- Comment on Everywhere I go I see this stupid AI gen font 5 days ago:
AI probably just ripped it off an existing font, anyway.
- Comment on Do you cheat in games? 1 week ago:
I actually learned programming to cheat in games. Back then (45 years ago), you got software by typing in a BASIC program from a magazine. Pages after pages of “gibberish” that somehow made something move on the screen. And somewhere in there was the counter that gave you three lives in the game. Challenge accepted!
- Comment on Christmas 2026 stamps unveiled by Royal Mail 1 week ago:
When will they be available?
- Comment on Soup Rule 1 week ago:
The “Trick” part goes both ways…
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
He probably aimed more at kinky-fu…
- Comment on What was the first thing "pirated" on the net? What was the first thing to be pirated off the net in the modern age? 1 week ago:
Maybe “Lenna” AKA Lena Forsén, a 1960s Playboy model who’s picture was scanned in the early 1970s and used up and down in image processing research. Has a Wikipedia article.
- Comment on Perfection 1 week ago:
Shitty design ideas 101.
- Comment on Would another program like Roosevelt's WPA turn America around quickly from the shitty place we are in? 1 week ago:
You could get a lot of rather inexpensive work done if you just put all ICE and DOGE criminals in chain gangs.
- Comment on Unsolicited, but not wrong 1 week ago:
Mum’s always right.
- Comment on $1.8 trillion was wiped out from the US stock market yesterday, where did it go? 1 week ago:
More like “imaginary profits”…
- Comment on $1.8 trillion was wiped out from the US stock market yesterday, where did it go? 1 week ago:
It was never there. It was just dreams and imagination.
- Comment on basically every device when it joins a network: 1 week ago:
When your computer connects to the network, it asks for it’s address on the network. As it does not know where to ask, it sends a broadcast message to all computers on the same network (address 255.255.255.255). The service it wants to read is the DHCP service located on the servers’ port 67, therefore the :67 after the address.
The address it gets in return is always only temporary. The server admin can define how long such lease lasts, and when a computer calls the DHCP again later (before the lease runs out) it gets the same address, and the lease timer starts again.
Some networks with high turnover (guest networks in a cafe, or similar) have rather fast lease expiries, therefor leading to regular requests.
- Comment on Am I a bad person for instantly thinking sexual thoughts when I seen this ad promoting Christianity? 1 week ago:
“She” could be a generic model AI’d or Photoshopped into a church she has never seen or even been near to. That’s how advertizing works.
We had a woman raising a stink because her pictures were used in a large national campaign about incontinence.
- Comment on Is it "Their name is Trevor," or "Their names are Trevor" if you know 2 Trevors? 2 weeks ago:
The name has no plural here because it is the same: Their name is Trevor.
- Comment on how/where did the concord hold 42 of these tanks ? 2 weeks ago:
I’m fully with you here. The one or two percent thermal expansion/compression is way below the usual safety margin of a plane, anyway.
- Comment on how/where did the concord hold 42 of these tanks ? 2 weeks ago:
Fuel is a liquid. What did you learn in school about liquids?
- Comment on how/where did the concord hold 42 of these tanks ? 2 weeks ago:
At least this picture explains that oddly shaped hole in the middle: It’s the place for the main landing gear to fold in.
- Comment on Why DDG is the superior serch engine 2 weeks ago:
Where the machine is right, it’s right.
- Comment on New voting machines fix your vote if you accidentally select the wrong candidate. 2 weeks ago:
So there is the selection machine that prints a ballot paper, and a scanner that actually counts the vote. If the selection machine does such a shit, you should test the scanner, too.
And the odd thing is that all reports mention switching of the vote from DEM to REP, but none in the other direction…
- Comment on laughs in 12 hours, while still driving through texas 3 weeks ago:
Yes, indeed.
