  • It's not even less hair follicles, it's hair that's shorter, thinner, and now blonde. You have hair on your nose, you just don't notice it because of how short and thin the hairs are. So it goes with "hairless" chests.

  • Ah, yes, this would be a frustrating map to try and actually use.

  • US Army Poorly Prepared for Arctic Operations: Finnish Troops Forced Them to Surrender During Exercises in Norway - Militarnyi

    Jump

  • They still do. Military exercises are not about determining which side is better. It's about learning things, practicing things, simulating things, etc. Often times one side will fail and then the exercise will continue on as if they succeeded, because, again, the point is not to score wins and loses. It's fact-finding. It's training.

    It's kind of like of the F35 loses in dogfights to older planes whenever they test that scenario. If the F35 is in a dogfight in real life, a completely unrealistic number of things have lined up and gone wrong for that pilot. In real life the F35 would just shoot the older planes out of the sky from the other side of the horizon.

  • It's a much closer approximation, anyway.

  • "You must be able to log in without the use of own electronic devices" gave birth to pre-generated list of (time-based) 2FA codes (for over 3 hours) rule:

  • Printed letter paper has about 80 lines per page. Rough numbers let's call it 100. That makes for 1,450 pages. Let's double it by assuming lots of page headers, comments, half-filled pages, etc. So 3000 sheets of paper. A ream of paper is 500 sheets, so we're looking at 6 reams. A ream is about 4 cm thick, but let's call it 5 since there will be air and creases and whatever. So 30 cm gets us to about a foot high for our code, all printed out.

    I'm pretty sure my original question was correct, this isn't the code. I'm pretty sure it's the debug output.

  • It's my understanding that that is the the debug output from the program, is it not?

  • They're definitely different. "Spicy" is not a word I would associate with a Choco Taco.

  • Oh nooooooo

    Jump

  • It wouldn't. They just added that in there for the scaries and they probably didn't think it through much.

  • Oh nooooooo

  • Also we've been doing it for millennia. The evolutionary pressure is already there. These are just the ones with the random mutations that make them slow enough to slap.

    It's like asking why gazzel aren't fast enough to outrun a lion.

  • Mama!

  • It's my understanding that the specific direction on this relative motion graphic is just made-up, but it does do a good job of reminding people that we're orbiting the galactic center.

  • British voters want to be part of EU more than French and Italians, poll reveals

    Jump

  • It really depends on which trade-offs you consider worth it. Reducing economic friction has huge benefits, even if you have to give up some national financial tools to get it.

    Jump

  • They should be forced to switch to the Euro like everyone else. That will prove they really mean it.

  • I feel like stubble or a literal beard goes a long way towards helping someone pass as masc.

  • How did we go from being against fake pictures of the moon to accepting things like changing out the entire sky?

    Jump

  • Nah it was a big thing.

  • Fight me

  • Heat and energy are not the same thing, scrub. You can create heat no problem.

  • Apparently Palantir can access the content of social media accounts that were deleted a decade ago.

    Jump

  • Ah gotcha, very bogus. Kinda speaks to how cheap storage is, doesn't it?

  • Apparently Palantir can access the content of social media accounts that were deleted a decade ago.

    Jump

  • Yeah but that's basically how deleting works for any normal system. You remove the pointer telling the computer where the data is, then you flag that section of data as free for writing to. It's not until something writes over the data is it truly gone.
