Emulation on older consoles is pretty sweet, I’m getting my fix that way

First hand experience in CA, the training is pretty minimal and you’re basically thrown into the deep end. It’s like reading about driving and then your first driving experience is the Indy 500.

Most people you interact with are belligerent (cus 99% of the time you’re not there to help them) or mentally off (yay for the lack of societal safety nets) and it’s drilled into you that every encounter could be deadly

I think the training is crap because of historical reasons initially, but now because it’s a political machine and there’s no reason for those in power to want to change it. They’re seeing the results they want to see, otherwise things would’ve changed by now.

I think if I were to do it again, I’d call it good after season 1

Same feelings as you on it, but I think season 1 held the magic as far as rewatching needs goes and is pretty self contained

The field is still in its infancy, and quantum technology is inherently tricksy

Yes my hobbitses, quantums are very trisksy

Quach’s prototype took femtoseconds (quadrillionths of a second) to charge, and stored the energy for nanoseconds, about six orders of magnitudes longer.

This ability to come up with these new working prototypes and technologies, coupled with the insane scale we can measure, never ceases to amaze me.

Somehow lasers + dye = quantum battery

This is the same vibes as Chase bank offering $500 for depositing $250,000

Those fucks are brazen with their greed

Ackchyually Kevin got tired of living in the caves and recruited Bob and Stuart to help him find a villain to serve under which turned out to be Scarlet Overkill. She was crazy and the minions then stumbled upon Gru near the end.

The yeti thing happened while the rest of the minions stayed behind in the caves.

…I watched both minions movies on a long plane flight recently. They were surprisingly decent!

I can’t imagine a scenario that turning off your wifi signal would ever matter as far as thieves go

You can already hide your SSID which for 90% of people would be functionally the same as turning it off

Inb4 you spawn on a bad seed and you’re trapped on an island with no way off (they may have recently fixed that for the few seeds it affected)

I just started a new modded game beginning with Gleba (deathworld) and I’m having a blast figuring everything out from near scratch

Would highly recommend

Ok there’s a few that are trying to still be comics and I liked those well enough

The comic where she uses her borat onesie to slingshot a bird was fun

I just used it to pass that bullshit message for a different article

Just yesterday I watched a teenager biking the wrong way on a 40mph road in the bike lane. They must’ve just learned how to ride because they were wobbling and swerving so far out of the lane that I was worried they’d smash into oncoming traffic.

Luckily it was a 4 lane road so cars could move over, but yeeeesh the kid had a death wish.

HIPAA :p

Ain’t no hippa hippo here

If you pooped yourself on it, it’d catch the heavy bits

So yeah it probably makes cleaning large physical remnants (eg poop, skin flakes) easier

I went one step further and used python to handle the flags and what not

Just gotta add each url / playlist to a text file, then run the python script

But seeing all these GitHub’s with much more elegant solutions is pretty cool

main selling point of IMAX films is there’s *more* image than a standard ratio.

This helped me get it, I never considered imax because of the price so I never thought about what it even meant

Image max / maximum image

Speaking for California, but you technically consent to blood draws when you get your license Cvc 23612

I don’t think it’s ever been forced though for a simple DWI, and I’d find it hard to believe a random nurse/phlebotomist would be down with a forced blood draw.

You can probably refuse everything but the other circumstances of being impaired likely won’t help ya and if it’s gone that far you’re probably going to jail anyway

I wonder why he’s forward and backward matching regex for some, but not others

Seems so disordered

I’ll take the unpopular point that I think is more relevant: it really isn’t that bad for me and likely a lot of other people

My costs are up but I can absorb it, and materially my life isn’t that different. America should 100% buck these fascists, and I think we’re fucked as a country given the bald faced corruption + bigotry, but if my experience holds true for most of the others then it’s still not bad enough to risk what we have.

People have to lose a lot more for things to change.

TIL powdered thc was a thing

How long does that high last?
