7.2 g acceleration. You could strap a human on there and they’d survive the acceleration phase.

30 minutes with a book is a great way to wind down before sleep. Although you may get addicted to pre-sleep book reading.

They got 5,000 chargers, not really scammed, although you can get larger volumes for less. If you take a full lung-full from a balloon and hold it, it’s like flipping a switch that shuts your brain off for a few seconds. As you come back, it feels like your brain is booting up as reality slowly reconstitutes. I never found it particularly pleasant and something about the nature of the experience made me feel it was unhealthy.

Among desktops, Linux already has roughly the same market share as macOS.

I was getting that with referrer spoofing enabled in uMatrix. There seems to have been a surge in sites breaking when that’s enabled.

It would be of great scientific value if we could study how Fetterman shifts further rightward with incremental increases in brain damage.

Bill Gates said too many resources are going toward climate change instead of issues like welfare and poverty…

In the letter, Gates called out the “doomsday view” of climate change and said leaders need to make a “strategic pivot” to focus on issues that have the “greatest impact on human welfare.”

“It’s the best way to ensure that everyone gets a chance to live a healthy and productive life no matter where they’re born, and no matter what kind of climate they’re born into,” he wrote.

The “generative AI” part of the headline is not particularly relevant to the article, but is a great test to see who reads the article before rushing to comment.

That’s the subheading. The body of the article says;

More than ten people per day in the United States suffer amputation injuries using table saws, meaning the rule had the potential to save upward of four thousand fingers and over $2 billion in health care and other costs a year.

I just finished watching this and thought it was quite good. It takes place during the early 90s, so it’s just a couple people who happen to be gay in a platoon of straight men. It painted the Marine boot camp experience as a relatively positive experience, so much so that it’s surprising the Pentagon is bashing it.

The spire/antenna on the right panting is crooked, the one on the left is straight. I think the joke is in the slightly better quality.

Your brain actually washes itself while you sleep, it just doesn’t consider Mambo No. 5 waste.

What kind of office chair has one leg that’s 50% longer than the others and why is there a tube extending directly downward from the ceiling to above that chair? People cranking out this sort of thing absolutely use AI instead of Photoshop now.

Is that photo AI? All the videos of the real prototype look substantially different.

Most refrigerators have the compressor at the bottom and the heat from the compresser causes more energy loss in the bottom-freezer configuration.

There are still plenty of top-freezer refrigerators with no water dispenser, ice maker or filtration available and those fell out of style decades ago - despite being ~20% more energy efficient than bottom freezer refrigerators. They’re not going away anytime soon.
