I like being in a regional instance, it means I can view local and see Australian news etc, it also means I don’t need to tell people where I’m from as often

California would be .ca.us but nearly no one uses .us addresses, a few states point their .us domain at their .com domain

If you’re talking coffee, Australia calls that a long black, though some are trying to import “americano” to mean “like a long black, but add the coffee before the water”

Isn’t it reasonable for a maintainer to say “no rust here” when they don’t know rust, don’t want to learn it, and have decades of experience in C, and are maintaining that part of the system

They think people are there to read the memes. They don’t believe that “the real ____ is in the comments”

How about charges for the reckless bulldozer driver?

Just work on the presumption that Gwynne Shotwell is running SpaceX.

That would be good news for AMD

BG3 enemies rarely drop clothes, only weapons and armour, though when we loot a place with clothing it’s a 30 minute fashion show and dying session

Clothing dying is the thing my group most save-scums for

Maybe. We should be attracted to people different to us for the healthiest babies

COVID killed so many of the believers of bullshit. I don’t think it helped

the conspiracy theory falsely claimed the sex ring was in a back room of the restaurant

IIRC the conspiracy theory said it was in the basement. The place has no basement. It was emblematic of the carelessness that they had for truth

I just watched the megalag videos on the glasses — the first episode of three — and the claim is they cut out confusing areas of colour that abnormal chromats see.

So if it worked, it only works for people with abnormal versions of one of the three normal colour vision sensors, and only if their deficiency is in green, and then only if it’s the correct degree of deficient

But it doesn’t work anyway.

The glasses help people see the number in some sheets in the colourblindness test, but hide the number in others. Their colour blindness would appear slightly worse than reality.

If they had worked they might have done so by some sort of contrast enhancement or edge detection, but I don’t think either are possible with just optics

Loads of people are suspicious of coupon schemes. They look dodgy. It’s no wonder that people come along after one of these schemes turns out to actually be a scam to say “see, I knew these things were bad” with the only evidence being that they never subscribed to it

Their fault is they claim it was this one specifically

I get notifications for popular news developments, also I might be in a better timezone than you for hearing need from America quickly

It has perfect gaps, blocks most road noise, has no squeaks or rattles.

You can make guesses about whether the two 1 January attacks with light trucks hired through Turo one by an ex soldier, the other by an active service soldier who both served in Afghanistan at the same time and who both were deployed to the same base in America at the same time, are related

Or you could try attributing it to a political statement by a suicidal soldier who doesn’t like Elon Musk’s influence on Trump

Or nothing, just wait for more certain information once the investigation is finished

I don’t think explosions were part of the safety design. The only picture I have seen of a cybertruck after a battery fire showed the rear of the vehicle destroyed but the cabin intact

The shape and solidness suggest it’s much more dangerous to any vulnerable road users than to its occupants, just like every light truck used as an urban car

Police responding said it would have at least broken windows if set off in a less rigid vehicle. The cargo compartment is a double skin of stainless steel thicker than the steel used in the shell of normal vehicles
