How are the blaster bolts different? I'm genuinely surprised I never noticed...

Thanks!

Do you have a source? I'd love to read more. :)

Damn, sheep were cheap back then.

Those trees are mean! D:

Jesus Christ on a pogo stick, execution for stealing 12 pence worth of stuff? That's crazy! Adjusting for inflation[1][2], that would be the same as nowadays being executed for stealing £5!

[1] According to https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/education/education-resource..., 12 pence (1 shilling, or 1/20 of a pound)) in the old £sd system is equal to 5 pence (or £0.05) in the later decimal system.

[2] According to https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/monetary-policy/inflation/in..., £0.05 (decimal) in 1832 would be equivalent to £5.02 in 2026 Aug.

What is the confusion here? Like it or not (and I definitely don't like it), most people use Chrome.

I love your username. /)

Ah. Fair enough. Haha.

And rarely. There is unfortunately a dirth of trees in my area since I live in a small farming town.

Yeah, those are good points I hadn't really thought of much. Thanks! I guess it's less of a priority for me because I bought my car for $1000 and it came with Michigan rust already. Lol.

That's surprising. I once tried an automated car wash just to see what all the hullabaloo was about and I think the rain actually does a better job. Worst $5 I've ever spent...

Where do you live? I live in the Midwest (SE MI) and when there's rain it tends to be medium-to-heavy rain and with wind so sideways.

I personally don't get car washes. I just wait for it to rain. Then free car wash...

Damn that's a big difference!

Interesting! Thanks for explaining!

As someone who doesn't know most of the tells but genuinely wants to know, what are some of the things that tells you it's AI-generated?

Meanwhile, I'm still waiting for a mod that gives mustaches to mudcrabs.

The mudcrabs are a proud and fancy race!

>LG denies TV spying claims

Yeah, they fucking *would*.

Jesus, only $500 a *year*?? May I ask where you live in? I live in MI and I pay about $990 a year for minimum liability insurance.

Canon, not cannon. Then again, since this is about war, maybe it should be cannon. Lol.

What's with all the line breaks?

Paint.NET has a *lot* of legacy code that cannot just be discarded. The dev said as much in their original post.

>You could probably just use an extension that unloads inactive tabs from RAM

Doesn't Firefox already do this? (Or at least have an option for it?)

Exactly this. I used to be a tab minimalist, but vertical tabs + tab groups made having lots of tabs open viable for me.

Genuine thought: maybe it's the separate windows?

Of course it's QT. One might even say it's adorable.

>because the technology needs to find it's way into applications and appliances.

I hear what you're saying, but speaking for myself: can we *not*? I really have absolutely zero interest in having ChatGPT on my microwave or refrigerator. In fact, I'd rather have my appliances *not* be connected to the Internet, all things being equal.

>Note also that converting jpeg to jxl is 100% reversible, you can convert it back to exactly the same image (byte for byte identical) if you need to.

Speaking as someone who loves JXL, I have a serious question: I once used ImageMagick to convert a JPG to a JXL, and then back to JPG, and the final JPG was a noticeably different file size compared to the source JPG.

What am I misunderstanding here?

That...sounds horrific. Oh my goodness.

What is "hot desking"? Is it as horrifying as it sounds?
