You could try the ones storefronts use as displays. A bit pricey, but they have to be as dumb as possible for what they usually do.

The blipverts were also several hours of ads in less than a second, which was the part that could kill you.

One hint that it’s still listening is if it runs through batteries too fast. If it lasts at least a year, you should be okay. I had to get a Chinese knock-off remote without a microphone for my last TV to stop it.

Dead is kind of a nebulous thing. The religious answer would obviously be it’s a miracle. In medicine there’s not really a way to tell the moment of death. It usually isn’t officially ruled until they give up trying to revive.

Lawsuits are the only language that can reach a corporation.

It’s kind of an ultra hard-core furry thing from Tumblr. They believe themselves to be an actual animal in the body of a human and try to live their lives as said animal as much as they can.

Fun fact, the “I identify as an attack helicopter” joke was created to make fun of otherkin.

I skimmed your comment history and don’t see any math there. If you’re going to make such claims, show your work.

He was part of a group that thought maga was too soft. Any left in there was a buffer overrun.

That describes every OS ever.

That’s not so much a hot take anymore.

I think you already know the answer to that.

It’s also how modern freight trains work minus the battery. The big diesel engines only produce the electricity for the electric motors.

Because “trucks” have less stringent regulations (both for efficiency and safety) so farmers can keep using their old beater pickups.

So it’s more important to you that everyone else uses your favorite numbers. Got it.

So drop them off at the same time, but just call it 8 instead of 7. Or is it more important to force everyone else to be on the same arbitrary number as you?

You could just make the numbers be whatever you want if that’s what you need to feel good about the time.

You could just get up earlier. You are not a slave to your clock.

I had a crappy phone line back then, so I needed those sounds to diagnose connection issues.

I can still tell the difference between an AOL handshake and a Prodigy one.

That’s similar to early CGI when they had to hand code all the positioning and wouldn’t know if it worked until the film was developed.

Uhh, shut up Beavis.
