  • Prince Andrew’s latest scandal begs the question: Why does Canada still have a monarchy?

    Jump

  • We already have a Governer General, we wouldn't even be changing any structures. Just removing the symbolic power and giving it to the Governer General to begin with.

  • I'm fine with being stupid

  • That scutoid (possibly all of them, I don't know) is just a pentagonal prism with a corner cut off.

  • Bought to you by the central limit theorem society

    Jump

  • I think that's part of the joke. Instead of the snappy punchline, there's a long and tedious realistic answer that goen on long after the point has been made.

  • Banana

    Jump

  • Not all apples, but many. Including Macintosh, which was found along a road and could never produce viable seeds. There were only three trees for like 30 years before people noticed that they tasted rather good. All Macintosh apples today are grafts of the one surviving tree.

  • Nope, all dirty fleshbag. I just like knowing things and hope others do too. :)

  • That old version "Gros Michel" is what artificial banana flavour is based on. Bananas used to taste like that. The newer "Cavendish" variety is firmer and lasts longer, but doesn't have the same flavour. It seems like both are being wiped out by disease though, yay monoculture.

    Cavendish seem to be especially vulnerable because they're all clones. They don't produce viable seeds, so they're grafted to new plants.

  • Quebec Politician Sam Hamad : My top priority is getting rid of the $60 transit tax that drivers are required to pay. It's very simple. I get elected. You get $60 in your pockets

    Jump

  • It's like a sponsor code. "Use code GMON60 to get $60 off at checkout!"

  • Dolphin gets serious

    Jump

  • It's not that the program you're running is malicious, but that it has an exploitable flaw. Because it's a GUI app, a lot of things can touch it, which might be something malicious or something with another exploitable flaw.

  • Bazzite surpasses 30k active users, gaining 5k users since two months ago 🎉

    Jump

  • There's a flavor of bazzite made for developing now, Bazzite-dx

  • Seems relevant

  • This is a huge win for public transit passengers in New York City

    Jump

  • If adding more lanes doesn't fix traffic, removing lanes shouldn't break traffic either.

  • Why are fruits and berries healthy, even though they are mostly just sugar?

    Jump

  • The issue with processed food isn't the artificial part or the refined part, it's the calorie dense part. Fresh fruit juice is processed sugar, vegan pizza is highly refined, and organic granola bars are still highly processed.

    The calorie density makes it far too easy to over consume, and to do so regularly.

  • Been there

  • Don't worry, it will grow bright enough to fry Earth in only 300 million!

  • The difference here is that an artist has control over the medium. Every letter was put there with intent, every stroke carries meaning. Deciding not to do these things can also carry weight, and even the decision to let chaos decide is a choice.

    GenAI isn't that, it removes the creative process entirely. Sure, you can get creative with prompt engineering, but the resulting art is the prompt not the AI generation.

    It doesn't matter how much work you put into micromanaging an artist, a commission is not your art. Similarly, it doesn't matter how intricate and elegant your prompt is, you did not generate the result.

  • I'm not ok with calling him one of the good ones, but one of the somewhat decent ones seems about right.

  • This is the only Windows thing left on my computer

    Jump

  • Wow, Win98 logo and media buttons? Truely between eras.

    I actually like the context key above the arrow keys, another method of effectively right-click is nice. Those Win keys are crazy though, that's the perfect place for extra function keys. Imagine having f13 & f14 that you can bind to anything without worry!

  • Thousands sign petition to make fibbing parliamentarians pay political price

    Jump

  • Once you get to Parliament, ignorance shouldn't be an excuse anymore. You're supposed to be representing Canadians at the highest level.

  • Strangely enough, Bedrock is har to use on Linux. Java is so much better though.
