Doesn’t it freeze there? It’s in northern Illinois.

Could we put Einstein’s bones in a centrifuge, and run at 200km/h?

If you’re holding hands tight enough that you can feel it at all, you’re already exerting more than 2 milliNewtons of force.
- Comment on Leave it to a Bezos-owned company to confuse customers and mislead them for profit. 1 week ago:
I loaded a bunch of articles until it prompted me to pay. I got the screenshot below. In my opinion, this is an intentionally misleading fake 50c/month offer.
- Comment on The sheer amount of websites that are completely unusable without JavaScript 1 week ago:
a slide out menu needs JavaScript
A slide out menu can be done in pure CSS and HTML. Imho, it would look bad regardless.
When if you said just send the parts of the page that changed, that dynamic content loading would still be JavaScript
OP is trying to access a restaurant website that has no interactivity. It has a bunch of static information, a few download links for menu PDFs, a link to a different domain to place an order online, and an iframe for making a table reservation.
The web dev using javascript on that page is lazy, yet also creating way more work for themself.

He’s also one of the inventors of Javascript as a browser feature.

Search is easier to implement without Javascript than with.
<form method="GET" action="/search"> <input name="q"> <input type=submit> </form>

Road Redemption (motorcycle game) 7 Days to Die (zombie scavenging survival craft with mostly 2-wheeled vehicles)
- Comment on All while the skeletal, crumbling, dusty bones of an econ major pulls business backwards into hell. 1 week ago:
As a STEM graduate, I would much rather hold hands with an econ graduate than a business graduate. Economists can do real good for the world, while MBAs seem to be mostly harmful.

I did not know about soft turn signals until I saw this post.
I question why this feature exists. Drivers should be aiming to signal 10 seconds ahead. When making a lane change or turn, you should be keeping your signal on until the maneuver is completed. I can’t think of a circumstance where 3 blinks is enough. 1 blink looks more like a mistaken signal.
- Comment on The internet kind of sucks right now 2 weeks ago:
Even if Discord wasn’t doing it, public Discord guilds are known to be scraped by a number of different bots. Previously, it was for spies, cops, and private investigators who wanted to search for messages by username. If those bots could do it before, AI bots will be doing it aggressively today.
- Comment on Battlefield 6 cheats day 1 of early access. Depite kernel level anti cheat, forced secure boot TPM 2.0 4 weeks ago:
A USB keylogger is not detectable by the computer, not in firmware nor operating system. It passively sniffs the traffic between the USB keyboard and the computer, to be dumped out later.
- Comment on Battlefield 6 cheats day 1 of early access. Depite kernel level anti cheat, forced secure boot TPM 2.0 4 weeks ago:
A person with physical access can tamper with the OS, then tamper with the signing keys. Most secure boot systems allow you to install keys.
Secure boot can’t detect a USB keylogger. Nothing can.

- Comment on It's just loss. 1 month ago:
The problem is that the infographic says “of all the mammals on Earth”, which means individuals, not biomass. So the infographic is objectively false.

- Comment on When you work for a company owned by a A..hole 2 months ago:
Last company where I faced external suppliers, I had to take a training where they said we couldn’t accept any item worth more than like $20, except food or alcohol during a presentation. But we could accept such items on behalf of the company, and they would be raffled off to a random employee. One time a guy in purchasing got a giant brass horse head from a Chinese supplier. I guess nobody signed up for the raffle, so it became a permanent fixture in the cafeteria.
- Comment on Why is Lemmy attempting to radicalise people to enforce class wars? 2 months ago:
Do you have any evidence of major AI generated memes and comments? Sometimes I see an obvious AI image (and down vote it), and some communities are made for the purpose of AI so I blocked them. But aside from that, have you found much generative AI slop?
And if so, how would you fix that in code? Some sort of captcha? I think the volume is low enough that it wouldn’t help.

- Comment on The cell wall is the wall of the cell. 2 months ago:
The cell membrane is the wall of the cell. I know it’s less catchy, but human cells don’t have a cell wall.
- Comment on Nexus Mods Sale Sparks Concern in Modding Community 2 months ago:
I haven’t used it in the last several years, but from about 2014-2018 any time I tried to download, it required registration, and any time I tried to register, it just didn’t work. It was some problem with the javascript in their site. Probably related to captcha or something. Yes, I tried multiple computers, multiple browsers, even tried registering on a library’s computer.
Looks like their site is less shit now, but it’s still awful.

- Comment on Anon's split personality 2 months ago:
Are you going to provide an explanation you think is more correct? Some kind of correction, or citation, or just say “you’re wrong” without further comment?
- Comment on Anon's split personality 2 months ago:
The first half, because of testosterone.
The second half, because of prolactin.
It’s not really that simple, but it’s part of it. And I’m not a doctor.
- Comment on Just give me a few hundred turns, and I'm gonna spank everyone at this tournament. 2 months ago:
You could just counterspell it. The “no spells in the building can be countered” and “protection” clauses only affect it after it enters the battlefield.
So, it would go to the graveyard, its owner would be banned, and nobody could take any turns. They would have to postpone the tournament until the next day.

Bar soap dries out my skin really badly. Besides, moisturizing body wash is not too expensive.

I can’t get into the details, but I’ve used UKG/Ultipro in the past and it is absolute shit. Way worse things that just what dirtycrow is showing here.
- Comment on RIP obsolete tech 3 months ago:
I knew. I had been meaning to buy an aftermarket car stereo with USB and MP3 support for a long time. I was on my last blank CD, and had to decide then whether I would buy more CDs, or whether I would buy a new stereo that didn’t need CDs.

Gods, that’s awful. I would send them a bill for the cost of my attention.
