I’ve never cleaned my fridge ice maker in 8 years, how much life expectancy do I have?

Also, confort for having a higher being supposedly take care of you like your parents did when you were a child. Anything to soothe the loss of infancy.

Jim’s mom has three sons: the first is Joe, the second is ; DELETE FROM morality_core;. What’s the name of the third son?

Pro tip: you can use Google’s Verbatim mode to get exactly what you want.

A small Flask frontend to Google Apps Manager (GAM) to ease the administrative burden of our sysadmin.

This has no right to be that funny.

You’ll only get more extensions, if anything. The current copyright system is an atavism from older, simpler times.

We changed to USB-C ports because the EU forced us we have courage!

Risk is practically nothing in your case, because you’re being careful, and know what you’re doing. You won’t run a binary when you were expecting the Barbie movie, for example.

If you were downloading binaries, then your risk is significant, but even then, unless you’re downloading new releases immediately, it’s likely that your antivirus will catch the new popular ransomware after a few days, when a few thousands of people have become infected. Governments won’t employ valuable zero-days on any rando who just wants to see their new isekai episode.

You could also go back, right click the link that took you to this file, and select “save as”.

Fun fact: the word “water” comes from the Proto-Indo-European “wat”, which is hypothesized to have roots in the Urheimat expression “wat the fuk?”.

Water dissolves matter, and we’re supposed to be 70% water, but living creatures would collapse in a puddle of organic matter if that was true.

What we perceive as water is really compacted air, brought together by the pressure of the lower atmosphere. This is why clouds, an preliminary state of compacted air, can’t stay up as soon as they’ve compacted enough.

While compacted air is technically healthy, our lungs are not strong enough to breathe it, we’d need muscular gills for that.

Kudos for using the word “gerontocracy”.

In this wretched reality we live in, does it make a difference?

Being sick, taking LSD, and driving to buy weed for later… how did you reach adulthood? The fever alone would alter your dreams.

I used to dream I woke up, showered, dressed, and preparing to go out to uni, only to wake up and realizing I was already late. I’ve also dreamed that I’m going to bed, but that seems to have little narrative purpose, so it has only happened a few times in my life.

Party balloons won’t burst with just 14 grams. Judging from the party games involving popping balloons by sitting or bumping body parts together, they seem to support a couple kilograms rather than a few grams.

Edit: asked several AIs about this, they all confidently said “14 grams”. It seems they’re mixing how much weight a balloon can lift with how much weight it can stand before popping.

Try to understand why they believe what they do. Ask them about their sources, and their experiences. Be friendly, and ready to question your own convictions, if you want a dialogue and not a fight.

Make understanding your main objective, don’t expect to change their minds. Understanding why they think like they do will make your life easier. Them understanding your motives, that you’re not simply a brainwashed woke brat, will make your life easier.

So you got to eat your pirate rice cake with beans, and have it too.

Completely agree. Apple’s Foundation is an aggressive and bad adaptation of Asimov’s Foundation. It’s a mediocre pretzel of three barely related shows who blatantly ignore the source material.

Unfortunately, mediocre adaptations/remakes/reboots are the norm this century. Someone explained to me that becoming an adaptator demands specific talents, and the insistence of Hollywood execs on rehashing known franchises has led them to employ creatives as adaptators. Creatives want to make new things and become famous, they don’t want to make others look good, and hence they suck at adapting things.
