Of course you’d put big lasers on the roof to shoot down bad guys buddy. You’re 12.

I hate the framing of “Ms Rachel has found a new cause—“ because no she hasn’t. Advocating for children kidnapped and locked up by ICE is not incompatible with her advocacy of children in Palestine. You just want to make her advocacy sound frivolous and fleeting. She’s being consistent.

We’ve told all the casting agents that the Weird Al biopic sequel is currently on hold, but they just keep sending in headshots.

Just so people are aware, this would be effectively all consumer grade routers.

At least I get to repost the greatest headline the Independent has ever run.

how it feels to give up on a puzzle and read the walkthrough instead

Sorta true, sorta not. Batters can't look at the dugout (in case anyone is signaling them). It's stupid, but good news is it gives managers a reason to scream at the umps

I am a big tough scary ICE agent which is why I’m wearing a bulletproof vest in airports, the only place in America without guns.

This really is an encapsulation of what being an American is: experiencing something needlessly cruel and profoundly stupid while propaganda you can’t turn off blares about how free and lucky you are

(worf voice) ICE agents are worthless despicable people, who by their choice of career have utterly disgraced themselves; there is but one honorable course of action available to them, but... (clenching teeth, visibly frustrated) i am bound by Community Guidelines, and can say no more on the matter

Somehow I have found my way back to Torchlight 2, which has evidently filled a niche for me once carved out by Diablo 2.

How I try to keep my work space organized vs How my other cashier keeps her work space

The agony of going to break but being stopped two feet from the door by a customer who wants to go on and on about a set of glasses she wants to buy except one is broken

damn girl are you 200 goombas? because you are stacked to illegitimate levels

this is how men stand at tailoring shops

Liberia? I wish the judge could just be like, "No, fuck you, you had your chance, he gets to stay permanently."

LM, and I cannot stress this enough, AO

kind of seems like the people saying data center energy use is overstated were full of shit

arm thingies 🙌

21 years ago, now. Here's our article from the "Boom goes the dynamite" 20th anniversary last year. 🏀💥🧨 bit.ly/41kXsBw

Easiest bookmark of my life

"Bunch of guys obsessed with Ancient Sparta can't beat the Persians at sea" was probably one of the known-knowns, come to think of it.

Whew. Working 6 hours instead of 5 shouldn't be a big deal, but it turns out that sitting down makes it hard to want to get up again. Even if it's in the middle of some stairs.

Also, I noticed a customer had a credit card with Vegeta on it, with the EMV chip right where his scouter would be. Pretty clever design imo

I don't have any problem with customers splitting payments, but I think this is a first: A customer's total was $11.01 and she gave me $12 cash. Before I could say, "well, with the whole penny thing, your change would be $1," she said, "Actually, I'll do $11 in cash and one cent on Apple Pay."

We must believe in a world to create that world

Incredibly funny that the president of the United States can do this and retain command of the American Armed Forces, but I said it about a literal Nazi and got fired from a job writing superhero comics.

I read this assuming Saxon was the baby he drags around the White House. This is Saxon. He's 20 years old.

A human requires 2400kcal per day or 10MJ. A day has 86000 seconds. So a human uses 116W. Humans are thus a hundred thousand times more efficient than computers in cut pasting shit from the internet.

Feels like smoke is coming out of my ears trying to read this R1 + L3 to parry??????????????????

Making sure that every upper class business traveler has a weekly run-in with ICE is the kind of big brain political move only our guy could come up with

A Jojo series director saying he has no damn idea when more episodes will come out isn't the most detailed explanation of why the studio's pseudo-partnership with Netflix has derailed the production of the franchise, but it's the funniest one

rally 'round the family

Okay, so, stupid thing to get annoyed over, but... My "smart" TV got some updates earlier. This somehow broke connectivity with the TV's app on my phone, which, you know, makes for a nice backup for my remote, because the normal remote has a habit of hiding on me.

i promise you that whatever you think will happen next won't

There is no such thing as unskilled labor.

I'm technically not supposed to go on social media and talk about sales numbers, but fuck it: If you don't count the time after closing, tonight I personally averaged about $2,000/hr in transactions. How do I get a piece of that action???

Oh yeah, I need to remember to buy a shower caddy tomorrow because my mom hates seeing my various bottles in the window, and I wish I was making this up.

Just the story of his name is one of the coolest things of all time

great reporting here. basically yes DLSS 5 is running a gen AI model on the 2D output and nothing more. it doesn’t know anything about the 3D scene, textures / models / lighting / PBR other than what the model infers by looking at a frame. TL:DR, they sped up slop. youtu.be/D0EM1vKt36s?...

Look, I'm not trying to make "former owner of a single-seat electric autocycle" part of my identity, but as a former owner of a single-seat electric autocycle, this shit sounds awful

It turns out that sometimes when you post a thread criticizing someone for letting their legitimate horror and anger lead to them drifting into the sea of algorithmically-promoted conspiratorial hateful slop, they read or & absorb it & engage productively & realize where they went wrong.

LIsten: maybe when Clark Kent was four or five, his Ma gave him an old pair of glasses and said "Let's play a game. When we wear these, we don't set the house on fire with our eyes. We don't fly the cows back to the barn. We don't kick tree stumps out of the ground. Know what we can do? Canning."

Oh yeah, Steel Ball Run just started, cool And with a double-length first episode? Nice Can't wait to see the second episode in... ... What do you mean, "they haven't announced a release schedule"

Been laughing at this for 10 minutes straight

This is the shit they do on my phone and it sucks ass there and I still don't understand why they can just put a disclaimer about how gen AI can make mistakes without giving users an option to turn that shit off

Anti-cancel culture crowd going after what Mamdani's wife tweeted when she was 14 vs. what this person said as a 40-year-old

Working "we put a bunch of dated political jokes and fart noises into the game and also we thought it was too easy so we broke the difficulty scaling and now it sucks to play" Designs
