Um akshually, Big Ben is the bell. The clock is just “The Great Clock of Westminster.” And the tower itself is called “Elizabeth Tower.”
(But everyone just calls the whole thing Big Ben.)

Or just let his balls flop out of his fly.



I misread the headline as “accursed” instead of “accused” but…I mean probably.


Nonsense. AI makes the process trivial and, with extreme ease, more realistic than the photoshop/scissors and glue of yore.
Could you imagine finding out kids at your school were passing around extremely realistic nude pictures of you? Or having any argument you make be shut down by something producing a lurid picture of you? Even if it’s fake, that’s gotta do a number on people.
This is different.


True, you make a good point.
I did know I was referring to an apocalyptic scenario rather than an emergency one. The giveaway was that I was replying to this comment:
Yeah… if I am trying to reach people tens of miles away during The Apocalypse, I am already dead.
🙂


What about after surviving the initial disaster? During the rebuilding? Or the ongoing survival?
Long-distance radios are useful as hell in stuff like The Last of Us.


Oh, I assume you’re going to do that by offering state-sponsored healthcare, thus lowering cost for both drivers and victims! I think that’s a fine idea.
Oh wait, you’re not just putting excess costs on the victim are you?
How often do they have to clean that thing?


Good ol’ GRPD. They made a whole show on HBO Max to try to improve their image, and then they turn around and do shit like this.


I’ve printed lots of functional stuff. Custom BedJet fan routing, angled connectors for deck rails, a wall mount to hold my EV plug, etc.
Most recent functional print, I printed some of these sheet stays for my bed.


Not sure about hand washing. But if you want to save water/detergent, and have access to a dishwasher, oh boy can I help. Just search “Technology Connections dishwasher” and get ready to learn!


I realize this may seem more critical than helpful, but trust me, it comes from a place without judgement. This is purely advice, not criticism:
Vomiting and pooping aren’t effective solutions, because they don’t actually help you lose weight.
Vomiting with a high frequency wreaks havoc on your esophagus, vocal folds, mouth, and teeth. It’s a stopgap measure for consuming too many calories, but it won’t help you. Rather, it will only make things worse.
Pooping does NOT lead to weight loss. This is a common misconception, one I held until my 30s! As it turns out, weight is primarily lost through breathing! Pooping is mostly just removing the waste that wasn’t kept by the body from the food you ate.
When you burn fat the vast majority (like 84% or something) leaves the body through your lungs as carbon dioxide. The rest as water through exhalation, urine, and sweat.
The key to weight loss is eating fewer calories than you expend. The simplest way to do that is to eat fewer calories, but this can be really difficult for people like you and me. The alternative way is to exercise, though it takes quite a bit of exercise to offset food intake. Just remember, anything that makes you breathe harder is helping you lose weight faster!
Definitely talk to your doctor if you’re concerned about your weight, especially since it sounds as though you have an eating disorder (which are nothing to be ashamed of and are far more common than people think; binge eating for example is an extremely common eating disorder that I myself suffer from).


They really should anyway. The Switch showed almost a decade ago how popular the handheld form factor can be when powerful enough, and the Steam Deck has capitalized on that beautifully. At this point a significant component in my purchasing of games is looking for that “Steam Deck Verified.”


They aren’t wrong. You’re keeping the mass constant, they’re keeping the volume constant.
I think the confusion might come from their phrasing: “the same volume of ice as water,” which could mean “the same volume of ice as the volume of water” (which is what they meant), but could also be interpreted as “the same volume of ice in the form of water.” The latter interpretation doesn’t fit the rest of their sentence though, so we can safely assume they meant the former.
Good, always use vet-approved pet food for your pets.
But I’ll definitely take some fried potatoes covered with salt for myself. Nothing artificial about it, just processed.


If that were WHY the US went in, and if the US did so as part of a multinational effort, maybe.
But that’s not why the US went in. The US went in for oil.


I have a good friend who is Venezuelan. He said, the political situation in the US aside, most Venezuelans are celebrating (but cautiously).
Maduro had lost the last election but just decided to stick around anyway.
I’m not upset about this because Maduro was a good dude or anything. He wasn’t. I’m upset because it’s a blatant violation of the international order and is basically just old-school imperialism.
Fuck Maduro, fuck Trump.


Oh I’m still a Windows user, haven’t yet migrated over (though I do have a Nobara install I’ve played with a bit, I haven’t tried to get Apollo working on it). I stream 2560x1440 and just ignore the black bars, but I could request 2560x1600 and I think it would work just fine (I prefer the higher resolution for higher quality, rather than the native 1280x800, though I can confirm that requesting 1280x800 works when my bandwidth is limited).
That setting is handled within Moonlight, and Apollo respects that setting by default, so Apollo presents itself as a virtual display with the resolution requested by Moonlight. At least that’s my understanding.


Turns out the major difference is the thing I use most: virtual display in headless mode.
When I connect as a virtual display, I have Apollo set to treat the new virtual display (whose resolution is set by Moonlight’s settings, so I can control it on the client end). Headless mode means all apps open in the virtual display, so I never need to go to the PC itself. And finally, in the advanced settings I have it set up so the virtual display is treated as the only display, so existing applications move to the virtual display (in case I already had Steam or Battle.net or whatever open).
I didn’t say anything about women or men. I never said men are to blame for the accumulated sins of men. I never said men were fair game to abuse. I’m not sure where you’re getting this nonsense.
