I know, that’s what my “when have these things ever been static” was supposed to express.

I choose to believe there is a lot more to the magic object than the truth or it’s own will. It’s a mirror after all, what you see depends on who stands before it. If you ask to see beauty and the reflection shows how you compare to a 14 year old, that’s on you.

Then again, when have these things ever been static. Shrek’s iteration has it’s own will.

Isn’t it super normal to move and turn while sleeping? Is sleeping on the left side so much better that doing it for the first hour only has a noticeable impact? Or do you also need a weighted blanked to keep you in place for it to have that effect?

Sounds like pseudoscience to me.

Toasters. Specifically the Sunbeam Radiant Control toaster, with the tag line “Automatic Beyond Belief!”. There is a fan site (https://automaticbeyondbelief.org/, excellent url). Like, what other appliance line has a fan site? Surely no modern day toaster!

But of course I first heard about it from Technology Connections video.

Let the language which is without sin cast the first stone.

Tomorrow.

I like the Rock of Ages 2&3 soundtracks myself. Classic music transformed into video game ost is fun.

Also works for the other kind of courting.

Rice Burritos

• Set up pot for loose Rice
• Put the vegetables in the same pot and a bit extra water
• Add Curry Paste
• Cook like it says on the Rice
• Maybe add Coconut milk
• Put in Tortilla, maybe add some salad

3 minutes of vegetable peeling while the water starts to boil, 10 minutes of unsupervised boiling, maybe 5 minutes stirring. You only need to clean 1 pot, and it’s cheap.

There are like 4 days a year everyone just puts their old sofas, broken TVs and other junk outside to be collected by a garbage truck the next day. As this furniture is mostly usable, people in white vans go around to collect the most valuable stuff, which makes up most of the traffic in villages on those days and causes old people to complain about Polish immigrants.

The village children also have a look around if the weather is nice. Village adults don’t, not because they are above it, but since there is a genuine risk a neighbour you’ve known for decades will sue you for stealing; the garbage does belong to them still as the courts have determined.

Edit: Sorry for forgetting the most important part.

I’ll assume since I am someone else, but kernel level anti-cheat is basically Spyware, or at least a privacy concern.

Well, that’s a new thought. Donating blood is necessary, so we get paid by the Red Cross to do it, in money or a small meal. But the Red Cross then immediately upsells that blood to the hospitals that need it. In a sense, we are exploited workers without a contract.

The real reason donating blood is unethical is because we cannot unionize.

Yeah, I was just pulling your leg. Being a goofy goober. Why would you read this very specific list of games and think I was earnest?

Tomb raider had infinitely many rumours about a nude-cheat because boys were so thirsting about Lara Croft, while Metroid and Shantae reward fast playthroughs with bikini pics.

Man, am I glad I grew up with less horny games. Like Tomb raider, Metroid or Shantae.

The real reason is probably that we said comparable stuff, just as whispers and not written in an anonymous forum. And we weren’t even egged on by forum culture or our games to be as horny as possible, the former drives engagement while the ladder drives sales.

There are about 2000 wild tiger left, I found this article from 2011 saying that they might be extinct in the wild by 2030.

So there might be 2000 ecological niches for smilodon to fill in 5 years. We better hurry then.

• Step 1: acquire genetic material
• Step 2: supplement material with closely related extant species <- We are here
• Step 3: Get an egg cell with your Frankenstein-DNA to survive and divide
• Step 4: Produce a healthy baby
• Step 5: Get a small population in a Zoo/Park
• Step 6: have a permanent wild population in a specific area
• Step 7: have enough of those areas to declare repopulation a success

Is fixating on the mammoths here first-world centrism? The article mentions 4 other species that have way better chances. Also, given how far we are from actual wild mammoths, that “it can solve climate change” argument is just wrong the way it’s been presented.

Got into 3D-printing a few years back. Intended to print some replacement parts, a few decorations and gadgets, and took care to not waste too much plastic. In the internet, there are pages dedicated to 3d models other people have printed. They were always a good inspiration on what could be done, and even if the model isn’t exactly what you wanted, it was always a functioning prototype to test with.

Since last year, multicolour printers have gained popularity. They automatically change between 2 different colours, but to make sure nothing of the old colour is left in the system, every time they change it they print out a few grams of waste product.

It’s a waste indeed if you look at the “poop bucket” of anyone who uses these types of printers. Idc if it’s only the “technically recycleable PLA” they use, I don’t like it. And now I have to manually filter out those models, and they can fill an entire page depending on what’s the new trend right now.

Around the time the pyramid of Giza is built, actual Aliens build a slightly smaller pyramid in modern day Tunisia. No one cares and all conspiracies still center on the ancient egyptian ones.
