I came in hoping for inspiration, got punched in the face by reality instead.

It's a good read, just know what you are in for.

"surprise" of the day: scientists can also be greedy for money and fame

spy vs spy, round n

finally, all the UFO videos can be clear!

And the next round of spy vs spy begin... AI generated content vs detecting it... just like the age old email spam problem.

I heard it, didn't your ears play it for you? I also heard my old 2400 modem connecting, which is rather odd...

I wish there was study based on whether multi-vitamins help for those of us who are professional sitters (eg, in tech, so we sit on our ass all day), and who most of the time do NOT eat healthy diets, and do not get enough exercise.

In those circumstances, does a multi-vitamin a day improve things?

I remember spending all the money in the world I had on a USR Courier HST, and that world changing moment the HST connected... ahh, good memories.

It's one thing to "support" it, it's another to make components actually available to make repairs. I remember some people testing out a direct screen swap between two identical iphones, only to find out they didn't work after the swap. So even if you can get a replacement component, do you have the management software to update the eeprom to say "hey, the screen with this serial is good to go".

i think it does, i accidentally locked my phone, when i went back, did a refresh, and it loaded the last game after an initial "slide to unlock" screen

Me: "ah ha! I got it, rotation!"

Game: "level 2: moar fingers required"

Me: "damn you fingers! y u get in each other's way all the time??"

Frustrating, but intriguing.

So when every country in the world started printing money like it's going out of style in the prime of COVID years, to help stimulate the economy, they effectively wrote the first few chapters of this story?

We use to jokingly say that whatever the estimate is, the actual time it takes is twice as long, and increase the unit.

So if the estimate is 2 weeks, it's gonna take 4 months.

Surprisingly, the latter is a more accurate estimate most of the time.

ah! nice! sorry about that, I will admit (although I think you already know), that I didn't initially read the contents of your page :)
