Going by a former forum member, it also encourages unhinged ranting about CLI.

He just needs a good autocarrot so his worms come out sensitively.

I gotta admit. It's a little off-putting. They should seal it back up. Nothing good came of the nineties.

Not today, but recent:
One of the biggest financial auditing firms, which exists for the purpose of catching companies cheating on their books, gets caught letting employees cheat on the ethics portion of their CPA exams.

@Kamil-Podlesak said in In other news today...:
The country adopted a measure banning plant-based products from using the same names as food from dead animals.
Can we borrow that?

@antiquarian Like would ever adopt some else's measures.

Not news, but certainly an interesting read

I must admit that I'm not immediately a fan of the flat-looking and child-like art style, but giving the creators hell also isn't the way to go. Apparently people were leaving nasty comments on Gilbert's blog page, and the entire blog is now offline either due to the Slashdot effect or just the author pulling it offline...
-
@JBert I hate flat UI (especially badly done flat UI) as documented everywhere . Watched the trailer, not my favorite style but doesnât look bad.
People need to learn to STFU.
-
@JBert the comments were pretty hateful. What I find darkly funny about it is that some of the hate was about the sort of âlefty woke inclusiveâ type things (I am paraphrasing) because thereâs multiple strong POC females in the trailer and how fucking dare they or something.
Except said people are in the first game and do return through the series!
Some âfansâ.

You're right, it will take the measures, look at them through whiskey goggles, and "come up" with its own...

Today in just reading the headlines.

@DogsB Honestly not a bad choice. Dinosaurs roamed the earth more than 60 million years ago, so this thing has lasted for more than that. Chances are it will survive for another few hundred easily. Oldest surviving house in existence? Maybe some 10k years old. Doesn't sound that future proof.
Plus houses are still fairly common. Not everybody has one, but you can find people that do. Dinosaur-ownership is quite a bit less frequent.

Need more science in here:

Apparently a reality in UK supermarkets.

@PleegWat
Very important to have a tracker on that rapeseed oil.

@loopback0 The most credible analysis and forecast I've read pointed to prices rising to between 50%-100% of what they were before this all started. And in some places the "lower middle class" was already living hand-to-mouth pretty much. We'll see a lot more "less privileged" spring up shortly.
I read that Denmark is closing farms to meet nitrogen emissions targets. And shortages due to Ukraine are going to hit sooner or later. It's going to be a rough winter.

The Dutch are kicking up about that too. It may be in a garage thread somewhere.

@topspin They do have a non-zero spin, wouldn't that make it magnetic,?

the neutron didn't phase
In fact it stayed quite unfazed.

If you don't remove all packaging before microwaving, it will definitely rape the microwave.

My local supermarket is in a very poor area, and I've never seen that there.

You need quite a lot of them to get an effect measurable at above the atomic scale, and there needs to be the right sort of asymmetry in the spins so they add together instead of cancelling out.
But it's so how do they work?

Yeah, I'm not saying all supermarkets in poor areas have that sort of thing on cheaper items, just that usually that's where the supermarkets that have them are.

Oil from the seed of a plant called "rape," because language is weird. In America we tend to call it by the more mild term "canola oil."

@Dragoon Looks like someone is not familiar with the "Giga" unit prefix...

For example, 72% of Netflix's American viewers said they prefer dubs when watching Spanish hit Money Heist, Netflix's third most popular show ever.
Well, those people are wrong.

@Dragoon That's not a battery. It's a pumped storage, which is a rather old concept. And while it's big, it's not uniquely big. The largest is about twice as big (and is in China, where elseâthere are three over 20GWh ones and one just barely below 20GWh in the USA too though).
