Reminds me of the fable of the scorpion and the frog.

…that’s not funny…there’s nothing funny about that.

For those who don’t know, this is Philomena Cunk, a mockumentary reporter.

Nice doggie!

There’s a Wikipedia page about him:

Yup! Just last week it was revealed that they would be doing their adaptive suspension that way: https://www.motortrend.com/news/bmw-adaptive-suspension-connected-drive-subscription/

Years ago, I used an extension called Tree Style Tab. It’s better than just vertically displaying tabs. New tabs open as children, and you can collapse branches, so things stay organized when you have a ton of tabs.

Reminds me of when Facebook wanted people to send them their nudes to prevent their nudes from being spread. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2017/nov/07/facebook-revenge-porn-nude-photos

Lol, reading this reminds me of a Jack In The Box commercial from the mid 2000s: https://youtu.be/3ZdT9MkyG7I

Years ago, a pedophile posted photos online with his face swirled, but police were able to unswirl it:

I have no idea who the guy in this photo is.

It could be a joke that’s been around forever, but I know it from The Simpsons: https://youtu.be/4GzMizVAl-0

Speaking of palindromes, fun fact: “()()” is NOT a palindrome, but “())(” is.

The first one is like ABAB, the second is like ABBA.

An example I found: the string of digits 0123456789 occurs at position 17387594880. In this case, it took 11 digits to describe where to find a 10-digit number.

So I think such an algorithm would technically work, but your “start digit” would be so large it would use more data than just sending the raw file data. Not to mention the impossible amount of computing power needed.

I did this, and it was great at first. Then I needed more socks, so I bought another batch. Then I had a mix of worn socks and brand new socks. They might look the same at first, but if you take a closer look, the older ones are a little lighter in color and the texture isn’t the same. I later bought a third batch. So now I have a mix of new, old, and really old socks. It actually takes more effort to match socks now than when I had many different socks.

I see this advice posted all the time, so I guess most people don’t care if their socks on each foot are a different level of worn, but it bothers me.

I looked into litter box robots and decided to try a low-tech solution first. I got an Arm & Hammer sifting litter box for under $20.

Basically, you dump the whole litter box into an equal sized sifter, then lift the sifter and give it a little shake, then dump the waste.

I can completely clean each litter box in 10-15 seconds. It’s not fully automatic, but I have no need for a robot anymore.

In headlines, slam just means “to heavily criticize”.

Lol, Roger did exactly this in American Dad! (S02E15, “Four Little Words”)

Also: “Thou shalt not take… moochers into thy… hut.”

You time traveled to the Middle Ages to avoid cars? That’s dedication!

TX has none

Huh?

I visited Dallas for the total solar eclipse. I got everywhere I needed using their DART train system.
