I wonder how many billionaires will just get couped by their security forces once society has collapsed to the point where they wouldn’t expect consequences. Their advantages right now come from society as well as the complexity of organizations and social networks. Transitioning to self-sustaining life in bunkers eliminates the power the billionaires hold over the security forces, like what happened with Roman and Ottoman emperors at various points as they grew more dependent on their security to the point the security ended up holding the keys. Especially if they go out of their way up hire security that will do anything they say.

Don’t worry, didn’t intend that seriously, was just an attempt at a knowledgeable/novice reversal joke.

Sends it by taking a photo of the screen, which displays part of the PDF and some questionable browser tabs are clearly visible in the photo.

Edit: questional -> questionable

I mean, a few GB would probably be done in a few seconds, so no big deal, just don’t seed past 1.5. The VPN actually makes it easier on the routers if there’s any NAT going on because the VPN handles managing the individual connection forwarding table.

Now if you said a few TB, that might be an issue.

They must have known that CGI in Pixar and Disney movies is very different from an AI-generated video and concluded that you had no idea what you were talking about based on that inaccuracy.

Some are discovered.

Like Keanu’s name was discovered by explorers who found his sarcophagus, and upon opening it, Keanu sat up and said, “Hi, I’m Keanu, could you close the lid for 5 more minutes, then give me loke 10 minutes to shave and get dressed–is black still in style?–then we can hang out.” And then he was ready to hang out just 8 minutes later because he couldn’t get back to sleep, was a pro at competitive level shaving, and black was still in style. When asked where his name came from, Keanu just shrugged and said it was already here when he arrived and that it’s up to everyone to decide for themselves where his name came from.

There is scaling going on there, just not 1:1. Like the hydrogen is smaller than the rest, but it should be about half the size of the one above.

Oh but 3H isn’t hydrogen enough to be on the list?

What seasons have good nuking weather?

It really depends on what you want to do. Word processing it can handle, scientific analysis it’ll be slow at, 3d modelling it’ll end up in power point mode quicker than newer machines. Coding would be fine, though compiling would take longer and testing may or may not be viable.

He caught up in a flash!

Hahaha. So, um, what other fucked up answers to secret questions have you used? They are sooo funny!

I disagree and point to Metroid Prime as the evidence. Mind you, it was still an amazing game, but it was despite its horrible control scheme (which was still closer to Goldeneye than the modern fps control schemes today).

Halo was the first game I remember having the better modern control scheme (outside of mouse + keyboard, where PC users lucked out that the obvious control scheme was the basis for any good ones, due to the much better precision of mouse aiming).

To be more specific, I mean the one stick moves while the other stick looks scheme. Metroid Prime used a one stick looks left and right, moves forward and back, hold down one button to strafe (with the same stick, around a locked on target), hold down another button to make that stick just look around. Goldeneye had the same basic stick scheme plus hold one button to look, but it was a bit better because it had buttons for straffing. Iirc, the up and down c buttons could be used to look up or down and hold it, which was useful when you were playing split screen against others who knew the levels as well as you did. Just look at the ceiling or floor and they can’t just peek at your screen to tell where to go.

I recall awkward controls being a common thing on the GCN in general, I think due to their attempt to move away from the SNES button scheme entirely. If I had to rank their controllers, I’d only put the GCN controller over the NES (edges were all to sharp; those controllers hurt to use for a long time), Wii remotes (they look the worst IMO and I dislike that the IR gimmick means they have to be used to play Wii games on the Wii U instead of a better controller), and maybe a tie with the Switch controller (specifically the ones attached to the system when using only one half, because it’s awkwardly small and can cause cramping over long periods of play, but it at least has the 4 buttons, which gets it the tie).

The best controllers are pretty much anything that follows the dual shock scheme. It’s a great foundation. I think the PS5 did improve on it, and that the early xbox controllers did the scheme well but failed a bit on the shape (too bulky), but the good ones are all pretty much iterations of the PS2 controller.

The connectors on the back of the TV can be oriented horizontally (like parallel to the screen, not perpendicular), which at least changes the pull force to a torque force, which isn’t ideal but easier to hold on to.

Iirc you can create custom syntax highlighting formats for notepad++. So if it’s not there by default, someone else might have made a file for it, or you can start making one yourself, as the format was easy to understand. It’s been like a decade since I’ve used it, but it should be somewhere in the menus.

I took OP’s reply as meaning they posted the meme as a joke, but assumed they got it from somewhere else.

I think it is a joke, though not one we’re supposed to be in on.

The hint is that that is a very well made map for someone who doesn’t understand how water flow really works. They turned the ocean trenches into rivers. It’s a parody of someone who doesn’t understand gravity but still uses it properly in demonstrating how it should look incorrectly.

I still can’t tell if most instances of them are a) genuine, b) trolling stupid people into believing dumb shit, c) trolling smart people into believing they believe something stupid and enjoying the frustration as they fail to convince them otherwise, or d) conning true believers like that guy who just wanted to fund his private rocket launch did.

Like it started with group B, but it’s impossible to tell group A and C/D apart, if they are really dedicated to the bit. Like those youtubers who did various expreiments that would show which way it was, got results consistent with ball earth, then dismissed those results as something being wrong with their experiment could be strong denial but also just sounds like trolling and if I had to bet, I’d probably bet on it being a troll (or someone knowing their video will get way more hits like that because it’s a hilarious result that did get a lot of round earthers to watch to mock it).

Tldr, I think we might all be getting played, though none as much as the poor fools that really do believe and donate to “flat earth science”.

Yeah, a lot of programs will likely run fine. The common issues will be solved. But the subtle ones will be frustrating. Plus I worry about a situation where apps target x64 and run on ARM but aren’t supported on ARM, kinda like what we’ve got with games on linux right now.
