I grew up with science classes telling us always state the digits individually. One point three two.
But obviously it was stolen by a liberal, not a foreign agent, so you’re obviously wrong and stupid.
And it’s amazing if anyone hasn’t seen it
Edit: (as is the entire special, called Inside, created entirely by himself, during covid lockdown)
Get the cheapest intern you’ve got and task them with getting as many follow up letters and wasted effort as possible. Ask for clarifications, redirect, misdirect, delay. Lawyers are expensive.
Yo momma so fat she doesn’t have a waist size, she has a Schwarzschild radius.
You callin’ me fat?
I’m so tired of capitalism.
My hiccup remedy is to take a moderately deep breath, then say, out loud, “Now” right before you hiccup again.
Usually, the control and attention keep it from happening again. I’ve had many people do this and just go, “oh, I guess they went away…” 👀
Hell yes.
It makes me so mad that Namco patented load screen minigames for long enough that load screens have kinda gotten scarce and short enough that we don’t need the time waster anymore.
Active GPS burns through battery pretty quickly. AirTags and the like work because any iPhone that walks within range will share the location anonymously.
There’s an Australian neuroscientist named Allan Snyder who references her while discussing savant-like skills and the systems and processes that impede them.

He’s not embarrassed. It’s not possible. He’s just pumping and dumping the global economy along with his friends and doesn’t give a fuck what happens or what anyone thinks of it.
The stupidest part is that of fucking COURSE there are zero tariffs if you move to the US, because tariffs are BY DEFINITION placed on imports. There’s no limit to the fuckery he can apply to you domestically, it’s just guaranteed not to be called “tariffs”.
True, sure. I’m just saying the overall price of games has gone down significantly over time. An upward correction makes some sense. I’m not cheering it on, just trying to help frame the circumstances.
Ocarina of Time cost $116.91 at launch, accounting for inflation.
Edit: the original Legend of Zelda cost $144.89 at launch, also after inflation.
I’m not opposed to the idea that there should be a financial motive to maintain and preserve old games. If you made it and it’s not public domain yet (an entirely different conversation), then I think it’s fair to be allowed to monetize it and I think it may even be preferable to just letting the community try to label it abandonware with or without the creators’ blessing. Being able to make money off back catalogs increases their value and incentivizes preservation.
While I’m not opposed to abandonware as a principle, I also believe you don’t have a right to someone else’s creation just because they aren’t maintaining it.
If this was a Polymega that actually shipped reliably, cost less than $Texas, and had subscription OR one-time purchase arcade ROM emulation, then let’s talk.
“We’re having trouble with AI solving problems. Let’s solve the problem with AI.”
It’s not strictly a bad idea or doomed or anything, but it makes me sad.
I’ve heard blood can substitute for egg. Maybe a giant shit omelet instead?
