  • This seems like exactly the type of gathering you want to avoid in a world where hypersonic missiles probably* exist.

    * bring on the pedantry over what actually defines a hypersonic missile

  • American chip flavors suck compared to some of the cool imports.

    BBQ? Sour cream and onion? Fuck off. Oh, but if you want some variety, there's nuclear-melt-your-tastebuds chili lime!

    It's gotten worse since "All dressed" became a rarity in my local store. All the delightful flavors come from visiting import grocery stores now. Cumin lamb, grilled squid, and thai larb are my favorites. And fuck, if anyone can figure out how to sell "todo rico" in my town I'd die of sodium intake.

    I'm in favor of more variety. I just wish they became mainstream instead of remaining one-off production runs.

  • With meme coins, the liquidity is dogshit. There's no real market for sale.

    If you sell the tokens piece-by-piece as you get them, you drive down the future price and might get less real money overall. Better to sell a big chunk at once.

    Also, not every exchange has a wallet/custody system. It's entirely possible for direct p2p trades to happen without any intermediate transfers. I don't know if pump.fun actually does this.

  • Excuse me, it's called Alien3, and what exactly is the problem with it?

  • Why is one wearing socks? Does that mean it's otherwise naked?

  • I want more life emotion, father

  • Two famous nerve taps that are both painless and liable to render someone cooperative:

    • the head
    • the prostate

    I think they drew the wrong kind of head?

  • Everyone Nokia user knows that Space Impact was a better game than Snake

  • Office parks in the middle of nowhere suck. You're never going to be close to everyone, employees can't walk somewhere for a change of scenery or to take a break, and being away from downtown means public transit is less likely to reach the area.

    I'm all for letting people pick a coworking space if they want, but making people commute to the suburbs is a different kind of hell.

  • Given that it was an internal DNC vote... they didn't

  • I read somewhere that this is basically Max Brooks' take on the film.

    Something about breathing a sigh of relief when he read the script, because it was such a distinct story that there was nothing left of his book to be butchered.

  • OK, you have a point on Godzilla, that machine is pretty fun. I also enjoyed playing John Wick despite my prejudice.

  • AI doesn't make things up: It "believes" (doesn't actually have belief) a real thing just as much as a false thing. The two are indistinguishable to LLMs because the only "true" thing for a chatbot is the existence of text and tokens. Everything else is meaningless to the math.

    Does my sewer pipe have imagination because is spewed black goop across my kitchen instead of carrying my waste water away like it normally does? Is my TV hallucinating a new show because the screen got damaged at the factory? Did a printing press create art when it smudged the text on my paperback?

    LLMs are tools with a high defect rate which tech billionaires and the media branded as hallucintation to sound more impressive.

  • Yeah. Stern is one of the few companies making new tables, and the stuff they produce these days is all about making an account and tracking your games with QR codes. They even have a few where there is a kind of meta-game that you play across multiple rounds. Not really my thing.

    A friend of mine got a summer job working a pinball joint, so I've learned to appreciate the game a lot more recently. Helps to have an inside person giving me free plays.

  • As long as there's one machine that's not Sternslop

  • Thanks, I found the hands, and now my fighter regained full consciousness.

    Of course, 1 day after that, a blind healer joined my colony. Thanks Randy!

  • I see this article more about reporting unfortunate news rather than boosting fear. The news seems to be "Car manufacturers don't take security seriously and people are exploiting it with a simple tool".

    I'd rather hear about this now than wake up one day to see that my flipper is illegal because some politician watched a tiktok video.
