I had appendicitis and barely noticed. I just felt like I had a mild case of gas for 3 days. I was lucky that I was with my ex at the time and she got worried, otherwise I might be dead and would barely have cared.

But then the year after that I broke my back and also only cared to go to the doctor after one month, so maybe I’m not the best example

Watch it still be canon despite being canceled.

I didn’t play any Star Trek game… Except for Star Trek: The Next Generation: The Final Unity, which I found at a local flea market a few years ago. So it’s that one by default!

It’s an ok point and click adventure, I don’t think it’s even the best Star Trek point and click adventure available. I’ve never been too much into these sorts of games but I confess it was extremely nostalgic even though I had never played it before!

You just wanted to use an unique example. It’s a honest mistake.

The nazis modeled a lot of their Reich on the Roman state (the eagle iconography was used by both). The Roman salute was just something else they took from their idea of the Roman empire

So I’m with you, I have no idea how “it’s a roman salute” is supposed to make anything better

I would assume that if they want to make the world a better place, they admit that their actions have long-reaching impact, which is not really a feature of nihilism, optimistic or not

But I’m not an expert, do what you want

I would give credit, but your username being CarbonatedPastaSauce gives different expectations to any recipe with your name attached

Same here. Last time this was shared I found a single recipe kind of interesting, but not enough for me to actually memorize what it was.

Thinking back, it was probably the Mac and Cheese one, and I had already wanted to try to make it anyway (it’s not a very common dish in my country, or at least my circle)

ChatGPT can be super useful, but I’m kind of worried about people learning to use it exclusively.

I tried helping a PhD student assemble a set up for measuring transistors. He used ChatGPT to do all the code for the software control (python), which is fine, even if he relied on it to fix every single part of his code when a quick trip to the reference manuals of the equipments would solve the problem instantly.

At a certain point I realized I maybe had misunderstood his set up design and asked him “wait, which device do you want to connect to your gate? Which terminal even is the gate?”

And I kid you not, the dude asked ChatGPT which terminal in his device was the gate

(he also reeked of weed so there’s that)

Sounds deep but isn’t

Title of your sex tape

That’s amazing!

Now give me a tip to prevent myself from opening the same app immediately after hahaha

With yt-dlp? Skip them manually.

Like, my main issue with ads is all the tracking they do. If they add non-targeted ads to the video file I downloaded, whatever, I’ll just fast forward through that part of the video.

AI will start hiding penises in its output, everybody loves it, you ushered in a new era of peace and prosperity worldwide, all peoples united by their love for hidden AI genitalia. Well done!

Play again?

A lot of people around me tend to parrot that a lot of the safety measures are not for explosives detection, but for drug trafficking prevention. I’ve always disagreed because nobody ever presented any evidence to it, and the measures in place do come from explosive detection (unless they have metal drugs now idk). But I’ve wondered whether there is some truth to it.

I would campaign for fifteen dollars to be written as 15$. The other way around makes no sense. Dollars is the unit, and you say “fifteen dollars” and not “dollars fifteen”. That we landed on the backwards convention is a travesty.

Sure, 15$ wouldn’t get me far, but it’s a start!

I agree with you, but Xbox just took the Dreamcast’s layout, which means SEGA is the original culprit

Sounds interesting, I’ve never used copilot and I’m not a programmer by profession (I just write a few scripts here and there for data analysis or experiment control), but I’m interested in checking this out. Has anyone here tried it? I’m worried it’ll get in my way more often than it helps.

When thinking of space games with limited graphics, the first thing that comes to mind is ASCII Sector.

But the Star Control 2: The Ur-Quan Masters (or whatever it’s name is now) gets my strongest recommendation. And Starsector looks inspired by it, so I’ll have a look!
