We don't need immortal billionaires sucking up everyone's oxygen.

You would never say

"What's YOUR name?

"How old are YOU?"

"Where ARE you from?"

I grew up with a Nintendo controller in hand.

There's a very good reason I now game almost exclusively on PC. None of this is going to convince me to come back. Quite the opposite in fact.

Cause consumers let them.

Why do consumers let them? It's just step one of enshittification : first, be nice to your customers until they become dependent on you and you're the only game in town...

OG had three CD's, three major acts, across a pretty epic journey. Breaking it up into three parts is really not that surprising.

Personally, I love the expanded development of characters like Jessie.

Let me take this a step absurdly far:

You may be slightly more buoyant (and therefore apply less force on a scale) everytime you breath in. It's not the presence of air that has this effect, it's the decrease in density of your total body (mass/volume) that has that effect. (Helium just contributes a fractional more difference in density compared to air, but how much you breath in probably matters much more than what you breath)

Except, maybe not. Because the air you breath in partially dissolves in your blood. Dissolved matter does not decrease density, rather the opposite: it packs tightly into the voids, increasing mass for the same volume.

How much of an effect this has is hugely debatable, probably depends on a dozen biological and circumstantial factors, and this is where my knowledge ends. But it's fun to imagine.

However, if you can imagine inhaling but holding your breath at the same time, creating a vacuum in your lungs, then yes, you would be more buoyant, even more than inhaling helium, and the scale would read slightly less.

Weird how the end stage of capitalism is really just a strange two tiered form of the kind of communism everyone was told to fear. So much for actually owning anything.

Open the tv and rip out the antenna. Y'all already forgot the classic secret agent trope of checking the hotel room for bugs? Now we all get to play that game!

Conspiracy theorists are just ordinary people lying to themselves and everyone else instead of taking responsibility for their own actions. Nothing new or surprising here, just more of the same cowardly schoolyard behaviour played out at a grand scale. We give people, adults especially, way too much credit.

Meta's AI can't be valuable and the training data to teach it not valuable at the same time.

Fuck off, Mark.

I dunno. You could throw yourself down the stairs. It's an awful choice, but you could still do it...

The point is, a choice with all kinds of negative consequences to it isn't really a choice.

There are other benefits of NAT, besides address range. Putting devices behind a NAT is hugely beneficial for privacy and security.
