Do you have any actual evidence of this malicious code besides writing with your caps lock on? Frankly, this reads like some poorly-veiled astroturfing to sew distrust in what, as far as I can tell, is the most popular windows piracy tool.

Anecdotally, something like gum or jerky to chew on helps me stave off highway hypnosis on longer road trips. I also find stopping and getting out to walk around for a few minutes helps fight the worst of it.

Shrimp is bugs 🍤

I literally log in every day to play them, then log right back out.

I’m one of those strange folks, but I’m not wearing a hoodie in the summer lol. For me, it’s a compromise between sensory issues and running warm. I hate wearing long pants, and I don’t really mind the cold on my legs, so I wear a hoodie to stay warm and shorts to be comfortable. I’m not putting on a show for anyone, but lots of kids in the midwest absolutely do it for attention.

I never really thought about it as left and right monitors, but my main monitor (30" 16:10) is centered and my secondary monitor (27" 9:16 vertical) is off to the right.

You are not immune to your powers- when time stops, so do you

Very early on, Tesla used lidar in addition to optical sensors. However, they only use optical sensors today and have for a while. Like many of the poor decisions at that company, the change to optical-only was made at Musk’s demand.

Thanks for clarifying, I thought the comment above was asking why it needed file access in the first place, not all file access.

Baggier pants seem to be coming back in style. Skin-tight was more of a millennial preference

Try looking for a boot cut. It’s similar, kind of baggy and the cuff is oversized to fit over boots (hence the name)

At least the HHR had a functional rear-view mirror

How do you think torrents work? They basically just download a file, but from multiple people instead of a single server. It needs access to the file system so it can save the files.

Lock that fucker in the burnout oven and see how long they exist at 800°F (~426°C)

This is kind of niche, but my work/study playlist is mostly Mick Gordon (probably best known for his work on the Bethesda reboots of the Doom and Wolfenstein games). It’s hard to tie down to a specific genre, but could be described as somewhere between metal and electronica.

This is the thing I really don’t understand about the AI crowd. I would be so much more supportive of companies like openai if they they were pursuing the automation of the dull tasks nobody wants to do, rather than flagrantly breaking copyright laws (the same ones that have been weaponised against normal folks) to create a pale imitation of human creativity.

Like, shit. I want a machine that will do my taxes and fold my laundry so that I have more time to pursue artistic endeavors.

There are indeed plenty of copies, but I wonder if somewhere the whole playlist was properly archived. I’d love to peruse it again for old time’s sake

Back in the day, it was kept on the sacred ‘important videos’ playlist

That’s fair, I really enjoy my rereads. While I do remember the main story beats and characters across the series, there’s just so much to remember! The depth of the world is easily on par with, if not surpassing, Tolkien’s work.
