I got, “I’m sorry I can play hangman yet” in Gemini

Actually, MythBusters proved that one couldn’t happen, unless the bullets were sub-sonic or low-powered and the diver was within 1 or 2 foot of the surface… water’s just too dense and depletes the power. And something higher power just made a big splash and bits of shrapnel that didn’t have much penetrating power.

You mean 2^267,709?

Funny… that’s a phone number I know.

I’ve nothing against the page having more technical farther down the page… I’ve done that with some computing articles that I’m qualified to talk about - simplify the description for the layman, put the technical description underneath…

Math nerds just don’t.

Got it on GamePass yesterday. It runs like a dog, and that’s on a 10-700k with 64GB ram, 3070 and a Sabrent Rocket 4 nvme. Even dropping to 1080 and low still hovers around 30 - 40fps with random dropouts to <10fps in ‘complex’ areas. Given this system can run God of War at 4K Ultra (With DLSS Balanced) at 30fps, or Black Myth: Wukong at High at 50 - 60fps, I’m going to say it’s not the system at fault…

Wait for a few patches, the performance is currently not up to spec. Which is sad, because the introduction got me super hooked and I want to play more.

Aw, crapitalism will break because line cannot always go up.

Cry me a fucking river. Humanity is a cancer, and we need to be about half our current population. Yeah, we’re not gonna like it when we drop that population. Our kids, my daughter, are going to have it fucking tough. But if we want to survive long term… We gotta stop.

I’m academia? How about Wikipedia, an encyclopedia that should be written (at least at synopsis level) clearly and for the casual reader. However, anything mathematics related and… Fuck you, you don’t know how to calculate an integral? Git gud, scrub.

In one sentence, you say, “just use a password manager”, on the next, “not really an improvement if you need extra software”. I’m not sure what argument you’re having, but neither one really addresses what this article is about.

This keeps the passkeys in the password manager (I use dashlane, it rocks, and synchronises the passkeys just like the passwords), but this new protocol allows you to change and export the passkeys to other password managers, preventing vendor lock in and allowing for transfer to another password manager.

Hope this clarifies things! And everyone should use a password manager of some kind; we should expect whatever site we’re using to be hacked, and the only way to be safe is to have a unique password per site.

Visually, at least on the outside, it looks something like a Stottie, Oggie or Pastie from the farming/mining areas of the UK. I always find it fascinating to see the convergent evolution of this sort of food - edible with one hand, hot and filling, with a crust that can be discarded if hands are filthy, or et if not.

Monkey skull nebula…

And that’s because SpaceX at least try to minimise pollution (both light and radio). Not successfully, but it’s minimised.

The Chinese don’t give a fuck, just like they don’t give a fuck who their toxic rockets land on when launched over their own people.

It was a term coined to describe the step-by-step process modern tech platforms go through:

1. be good, get customers, grow
2. get large enough to corner market, concentrate on profits
3. get large enough to move to politicise their approach, drive out competition through aggressive tactics, and lock in consumers
4. drive more profit through dark patterns and ensure nobody wins but the stakeholders

It’s specifically that, and there wasn’t a word that described that process previously, as it’s only something that’s possible in a modern, “web scale” worldwide platform.

Crepuscular. Related to twilight, dimness, the golden hour.

As “three dead trolls in a baggie” famously sung… “Every OS Sucks”.

As true today as when it was first penned.

No worries… It’s a pretty obscure math joke anyway :⁠-⁠P

Maths - sin, tan and cos are all factors of the rotation of a circle, hence pi being on there. I’m not a mathematician, I just watch standup maths and can recommend his book, “love triangle” to explain this sort of stuff.

With a PFY ready just outside the room with the improvised mega volt cables incase you get wise and try and bolt. And something happened to the lifts so the doors opened without the lifts being there…

people wouldn’t have to masquerade as much behind legitimate business.

Yes, that’s the point - they’d BE a legitimate business anyway. Sadly, the concept of it being not so, is so ingrained in Western (American and British, at least) culture that even comments in support reveal an unconscious bias that’s hard to overcome.

Translation added, roughly done. Tip: modern Android devices let you press and hold the switcher, which takes a screen shot of whatever is on screen. Then, you can press the translate button that appears to translate whatever is on screen. Works with the camera too - easier than firing up Google lens or whatever.

Of course, you need all the Google gubbins to do it, but if you’ve got that it’s really powerful.
